Wireless WAN Communications with GSM/GPRS
Overview
Dolphin 7900 terminals can be configured with Wireless Wide Area Network (WWAN) via an integrated Siemens® GSM/GPRS tri-band radio module.
GPRS - GPRS stands for General Packet Radio Service. It is a non-voice value added service that allows packet switched data and information to be instantly sent and received across a mobile telephone network.
Powering Up the GSM/GPRS Radio Driver
When the mobile computer is first initialized, the radio driver for the GSM module is installed. Before using the radio, make sure that the GSM radio is powered up. For more information,
Tri-Band Antenna
Dolphin 7900 terminals configured with a GSM/GPRS radio feature a tri-band antenna that supports 900, 1800 and 1900 MHz frequencies for worldwide mobile applications.
see The Radio Manager on page 4-8.
Requirements
Using GMS/GPRS on a Dolphin 7900 terminal requires:
• a network subscription to a GSM/GPRS network (you need to know what service providers are in your geographic area), and
• a SIM card installed on the terminal.
Capabilities
Dolphin 7900 computers with integrated GSM/GPRS WWAN radios are optimized for the following two-way voice and data communications:
• GSM voice data ("dial-up")
• SMS (Short Message Service) text messages
• GPRS Class 10 - data transmissions average. 40-60 Kbps (wireless network carrier dependent)

SIM Card Installation
SIM stands for Subscriber Information Module. A SIM card stores the subscriber's personal information, GSM/GPRS radio settings, security key, contacts, etc. SIM cards can be installed and removed from compatible mobile devices, enabling you to switch devices without losing your personal information. SIM cards are obtained and activated by the network provider that supports your GSM/GPRS network.
Requirements
Before installing the SIM card:
• The SIM card must be activated by the service provider.
• The terminal must be powered down.
To Install a SIM Card:
On the Dolphin 7900 terminal, the access door is located on the left, side panel; see Side Panel Features on page 3-6. Note: The access door on the left side panel is not user-accessible in the field. A special Torx T8 tool from HHP is required to
loosen the screws; HHP part number 100001024.
1. Obtain HHP part number 100001024.
2. Power down the terminal and lay it down on a flat surface.
3. Unscrew the faceplate of the access door.
4. Insert your SIM card.
5. Place the SIM card door over the secured SIM card.
6. Secure the faceplate.
7. Power on the terminal to verify that the SIM card is working. Note: If the SIM card is not installed properly, the Dialler screen will indicate that no SIM card is installed.
Do NOT power on the device with the SIM card installed and the access door still open. You must secure the faceplate before you power on the device. Failure to do so will could result in damage to the terminal and will void the warranty.

GPRS Settings
After subscribing to a GPRS network and installing your SIM card, you can load the parameters of your GPRS subscription into the terminal. However, some subscriptions load automatically when you install your SIM card. If the GPRS settings do not load automatically, you must enter them manually.
uPhone includes a pre-configured GPRS connection in Internet Settings. You need to select or create GPRS settings prior to making a GPRS call for the first time. You can also configure GPRS settings for browsing the web via a VPN or Proxy Server.
Requirements
Make sure that you are not using ActiveSync when configuring the connection settings. To establish a GPRS connection, you need to review the information from your network service provider. Given that there can
be so many different configurations, such as VPN or Proxy Server connections, see about how to set up each kind of connection.
Because GSM/GPRS technology uses a network connection, you need to configure those settings in the Connection Manager. For details,
see Connections Tab on page 7-20.
To Select Pre-Configured GPRS Settings
1. Go to Start > System > Connections tab > uPhone GPRS. The GPRS Settings screen appears displaying the default settings.
