RANGE LIMITATIONS AND INTERFERENCE

uses advanced cordless technology and com­municate with the Base Station under the frequency of
900 MHz. Generally speaking, it can cover 100 feet
indoors and 150 feet outdoors (for the most perfect

situation.)
Please be noted that it may be subject to interference.

1. Inferference caused by the building structure and
its surroundings. The performance for any cordless

device will change according to indoor and outdoor envi­ronmental conditions, and may be affected by atmo­spheric conditions.

DATA SAFETY WARRANTY

CIDCO will not in any event for liable for:

Loss of data stored in the returned . You must
ensure that all data has been adequately backed-up
before it is returned by printing or writing down if no
printing available, because any data stored in this device
will be lost during repairs and test procedures.

2. When the terminal is located away from the Base
Station. The terminal has a range limitation from the

base unit and if static occurs, move it closer to the Base
Station.

7

3. Interference caused by another 900 MHz device. It
is also possible for another 900 MHz cordless device that
is located close to or in use at the same time, which will
cause some interference. Once the device are moved
apart or not in use at the same time, the symptoms
should disappear.

RESETTING THE DIGITAL SECURITY CODE

When you buy this , a default security code is
assinged between the Base Station and terminal. Only a
terminal which has this security code can make cordless
connection with the Base Station. This system prevents the
possibility of other cordless device dial up through your
Base Station. You normally do not need to reset the security
code. However, in the unlikely event that you suspect that
another cordless device uses the same security code, you
can manually change the code.

1. Make sure that your terminal and Base Station are
connected to the A/C adaptors respectively and in idle
status.

2. Press the RESET key on Mobile for more than 3 sec-
onds. A random security code is automatically assigned.

Note: The product has eight communication channels,
working under ISM band. Each channel occupies 250KHz.
When user powers on the mobile unit, it will scan the eight
channels to find the cleanest one and communicate with the
base unit via it.

There are over 1 million choices of security codes as­signed randomly to users. The resetting steps are:

For the Beginner

Now that the is powered up and connected to a
telephone line, you are ready to receive your first E-mail!
But if it is your first time to use E-mail and this device,
there is something that you should bear in mind.

How E-mail Works

E-mail is like postal mail, better more magic and better.

Electronic mail is created to work in the real world among
the lots of virtual post offices on the Internet. It has mail
boxes (both incoming and outgoing mail boxes like the
ones you often find at your home and on the streets
corners), post offices, and envelopes containing written
messages. You even have an address book where you
store the addresses of people you send mails to.

Electronic mail differs from the postal service in some
important and powerful ways, however. For one thing, E­mail is nearly instaneous when you send a message from
your device, it arrives at its destination (the mail receiver/
receivers) in minutes if not sooner. E-mail is delivered
constantly, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, it never takes
a holiday, so the contact can be made any time, any
place. Besides, you can send one mail to many people at
the same time.

Once you start using E-mail, it will change the way you
think about communicating forever.

18

For the Beginner

How E-mai Addressing Works

Every E-mail user has a unique address where you can
send mail. Think that an E-mail is like a mailing address
where you receive postal mail.

Everybody in your town or city has a unique street ad­dress which allows your mailman to deliver mail to each
person or household.

With E-mail, your street, city, state and zip code is com­bined into a single descriptor called a domain. Think of a
domain like `123 Maple Street, Cincinnati, OH 12354` in
the postal mail world. Each user within a Domain is as­signed a name, just as each person in your household
has a unique name.

An E-mail address is simply a combination of a name and
a Domain, combined with the @ symbol to separate the
two.

So, for example, an E-mail address might look like:

[e-mail]

Name@Domain Name

Which is like saying:

`The james who lives at 123 Maple street in Cincinnati
Ohio, 12345.`

19

For the Beginner

The difference between domains and actual real-world
locations like 123 Maple Street is that people belongjing
to an E-mail domain may be physically located all over
the world. Many of the post offices take care of
delievering your mail no matter where you live by using
domains.
