Getting Started
Congratulations on the purchase of your new VisorPhone™ module. Your
VisorPhone module integrates the power of a state-of-the-art digital mobile
phone with the simplicity of your Handspring handheld computer.
To use your VisorPhone, you must first activate your account with your
mobile phone service provider.
Your account information is located on your SIM (Subscriber Identity
Module) card. If a SIM card did not come with your VisorPhone, your
service provider will provide one when you subscribe to their service. Your
SIM card must be inserted into your VisorPhone before you can use it.
Just follow the eight easy steps in this chapter to get up and running quickly.

and is often referred to as a “smartcard.”
Note: If your SIM card is already inserted in your phone, skip to Step 3.

Congratulations
You’re ready to use your VisorPhone module. Keep these things in mind as
you use your new phone:
■
If you travel outside a coverage area, your phone remains on but you
can’t make or receive calls. If this occurs, the LED blinks red slowly and
the phone periodically tries to register to the network. When you return
to a coverage area, the LED blinks green.
■
If you travel outside a coverage area, you can’t receive SMS text
messages. However, the messages are stored by the network and you
will receive them when you return to a coverage area.
■
■
Your account includes a voicemail feature so people can always leave
you a message even when your phone is off.
Always use care when operating a mobile phone. If you plan to use your
VisorPhone module while driving a car, we recommend using a headset
for hands-free operation. See “Connecting a headset” on page 77 to
learn how to connect a headset to your VisorPhone.

Checking Messages
Your VisorPhone is capable of receiving voicemail and text messages and
generating missed call messages.
If you miss a call when your VisorPhone is on and you remain in a coverage
area, your missed calls appear in the Call History list and you receive a
missed call alert message. When your phone is off or you travel outside a
coverage area, your missed calls are forwarded to voicemail and they do not
appear in the Call History list. Similarly, when your phone is off or you
travel outside a coverage area, your service provider stores your text
messages until you turn on your phone or return to a coverage area.
Note: You may need to contact your service provider to add the text
messaging feature to your rate plan. This feature is sometimes
referred to as SMS, or Short Message Service.

Using Your SIM Phonebook
In addition to storing your phone number and billing information, your
SIM card also contains a phone list that is separate from your Address Book
and speed dial list. Most SIM cards enable you to store more than 50 names
and numbers. By storing a phone list on your SIM card, you have immediate
access to your phone list when you move your SIM card to another phone.
The SIM Phonebook application is a utility that enables you to view and
manage the phone list on your SIM card.

Working With SMS Text Messages
In addition to dialing and receiving calls, you can use your VisorPhone to
send and receive short text messages. These text messages, also called SMS
(Short Message Service) messages, are similar to email messages that you
send and receive from your computer, but are limited to a few sentences in
length. The person receiving your message must also have a GSM mobile
phone and a service provider that supports text messages. Some service
providers also allow you to use your mobile phone to send text messages to
an email address and to receive text messages from a computer. Talk to your
service provider for details about their SMS and SMS Email features. This

Creating messages
SMS Message Manager enables you to create short text messages and send
them to a GSM mobile phone number or an email address. If a message
exceeds 160 characters, SMS Message Manager divides the text into
multiple messages. As you create a message, the status bar indicates how
many messages will be sent and the total number of characters in all the
messages.
To save time while creating messages, you can insert predefined text from
a template. Some templates ask you to enter information such as a meeting
time or place. Using a template is similar to filling in the blanks on a form
letter instead of writing a letter from scratch. Fortunately, in SMS Message
Manager you can easily combine the template text with your own text to
personalize your message.
You can create a message at any time, but if you send a message when you
are outside a coverage area, your VisorPhone places the message in the
Pending category and sends it automatically when you return to a coverage
area. While a message is in the Pending category, you cannot edit it, but you
can delete it before it is sent.

Performing a wireless HotSync operation
Since your VisorPhone operates as a modem at 14.4Kbps or 9.6Kbps, a
wireless HotSync operation takes significantly longer than performing a
HotSync operation with your cradle. Therefore, we recommend performing
a wireless HotSync operation only when your cradle is not available.

Conduit Setup under Options and reduce the number of
applications with which you synchronize.

Caring for the battery
Your VisorPhone uses a 680mAh Lithium Ion battery. A fully-charged
battery provides approximately 3 hours of talk time and more than 70 hours
of standby time. Follow these guidelines to get the most from your battery:
■
Do not disassemble the battery pack.
■
If you are not using your VisorPhone for an extended period of time,
disconnect the battery pack from the phone and store it in a cool, dry
place; charge the battery at least once every six months when not in use.
■
Use your VisorPhone at normal temperatures (between -4 degrees and
130 degrees Fahrenheit). Using your VisorPhone outside of the normal
temperature range can severely decrease the battery performance.
■
■
■
Never throw the battery pack into fire or expose it to extreme heat.
If the battery pack ever becomes hot or smells odd, stop using it.
If the battery pack becomes damaged and leaks liquid, stop using it and
avoid skin contact with the leaking liquid.
■
■
■
■
Use only a genuine Handspring battery pack. Third party battery packs
are not guaranteed to function properly with your VisorPhone.
Always replace the battery pack with the same type of pack. Using
another type of battery pack may cause an explosion.
Do not short any battery contacts or let the contacts come in direct
contact with conductive or electronic objects.
Be sure to properly dispose of the battery. For more information, see
“How do I dispose of the battery?” on page 93.

How do I dispose of the battery?
When your battery fails to hold a charge, you need to replace it.
Caution: It is illegal in many areas to dispose of Lithium Ion batteries in
household or business trash. Call your local recycling center for
instructions on battery recycling, or contact Handspring for safe
disposal options. Do not handle a damaged or leaking battery.

Safety and General Information
IMPORTANT INFORMATION ON SAFE AND EFFFICIENT OPERATION. Read this information
before using your integrated multi-service portable radio.
For the Safe and Efficient Operation of Your Radio, Observe These Guidelines:
Your radio product contains a transmitter and a receiver. When it is ON, it receives and transmits radio fre-
quency (RF) energy. The radio operates in the frequency range of 800 MHz to 1990 MHz and employs digital
modulation techniques. When you use your radio, the system handling your call controls the power level at
which your radio transmits. The output power level typically may vary over a range from .001 Watts to 2
Watts.

Other Medical Devices
If you use any other personal medical device, consult the manufacturer of your device to determine if it is ad-
equately shielded from external RF energy. Your physician may be able to assist you in obtaining this infor-
mation.
Turn your phone OFF in health care facilities when any regulations posted in these areas instruct you to do
so. Hospitals or health care facilities may be using equipment that could be sensitive to external RF energy.
Interference to Other Electronic Devices
RF energy may affect improperly installed or inadequately shielded electronic operating and entertainment
systems in motor vehicles. Check with the manufacturer or representative to determine if these systems are
adequately shielded from external RF energy. Also check with the manufacturer of any equipment that has
been added to the vehicle.
Turn your radio OFF before boarding any aircraft to prevent possible interference to aircraft systems. Reg-
ulations of the United states Federal Aviation Administration prohibit use when the aircraft is in the air and
require you have permission from a crew member to use your radio while the aircraft is one the ground.
