Level 1 and 2 Service Manual Product Overview

Product Overview

Motorola V150 mobile telephones feature global system for mobile communications
(GSM) air interface, general packet radio service (GPRS) transport technology, and
wireless application protocol (WAP) Internet browser. The mobile telephone uses a
simplified icon and graphical-based user interface (UI) for easier operation, allow
short message service (SMS) text messaging, and include clock, alarm, datebook,
calculator, and caller profiling personal management tools. TheV150 is a dual band
phone that allows roaming within the GSM 850,GSM 900 MHz and digital cellular
system (DCS) 1800 MHz and 1900 PCS bands.

V150 telephones support GPRS and SMS in addition to traditional circuit switched
transport technologies. GPRS, where available, provides substantial increases in
mobile data communications performance and the efficient use of radio spectrum.
Data transmission rates for GSM networks can potentially increase from the
current rate of 9.6 kbps up to a theoretical maximum of 171.2 kbps. An increased
data rate is by no means the only benefit provided by GPRS. A key advantage is
the provision of a permanent virtual connection to the network. This “always on”
connection is possible because GPRS uses packet data transfer so that, for example,
email can be downloaded in “background mode.” There is no need for the user to re­connect before requesting a service, eliminating connection set-up delays and
adding convenience and immediacy to data services access. The “virtual” nature of
this connection means that network resources are not consumed during periods
when a user is not actually sending or receiving data.

The telephones are made of polycarbonate plastic with a metal enclosure. The
display and speaker, as well as the 18-key keypad, transceiver printed circuit board
(PCB), microphone, charger and headphone connectors, and power button are
contained within the flip-phone form-factor housing. The 600 mAh Lithium Ion (Li
Ion) battery provides more than 300 minutes of talk time with up to 300 hours of
standby time
which fit into the SIM holder under the rear housing cover. These telephones feature
a 96 x 64 pixel 900 square millimeter high-resolution graphics display and external
antenna.

Features

V150 telephones use advanced, self-contained, sealed, custom integrated circuits to
perform the complex functions required for GSM GPRS communication. Aside from
the space and weight advantage, microcircuits enhance basic reliability, simplify
maintenance, and provide a wide variety of operational functions.

Features available in this family of telephones include:

• Lower voltage technology that provides increased standby and talk times

• Extended GSM (EGSM) channels

• Tri-coder/decoder (CODEC) that allows full rate, half rate, and enhanced full
rate modes of transmission

• Supports SMS, concatenated SMS, and cell broadcast messages

• Supports GPRS, circuit switched, and SMS networks

• WAP 1.2.1 compliant

• Super enhanced sound engine

times are quoted as a range from DRX=2 to DRX=9. Talk times are quoted as a range from DTX off to DTX on.

Speaker Dependant Voice Activation

The voice dialing feature allows the user to recall pre-programmed voice numbers
simply by pressing the Voice/Ok key and speaking the desired voice tag. Up to 10
voice tags can be stored.

The user cannot place or receive calls while adding voice tags to the phone’s memory.

Because the GSM standard does not provide the option to store voice tags onto the
SIM card, voice tags are added to the phone’s memory.

Wireless Access Protocol (WAP) 1.2 Compliancy

In the WAP environment, access to the Internet is initiated in wireless markup
language (WML), which is derived from hypertext markup language (HTML). The
request is passed to a WAP gateway which retrieves the information from the server
in standard HTML (subsequently filtered to WML) or directly in WML if available.
The information is then passed to the mobile subscriber via the mobile network.

Bitmap image data will download as text. If the image is larger than the screen,
only part of the image will display.

If the user receives a call while in browser mode, the browser will pause and allow
the user to resume after completing the call.

Simplified Text Entry

iTAP™ predictive text entry. Press a key to generate a character and a dynamic
dictionary uses this to build and display a set of word or name options. The iTAP™
feature may not be available on the phone in all languages.

Caller Line Identification

Upon receipt of a call, the calling party’s phone number is compared to the phone
book. If the number matches a phone book entry, that name will be displayed. If
there is no phone book entry, the incoming phone number will be displayed. In the
event that no caller identification information is available, an incoming call message
is displayed.

User must subscribe to a caller line identification service through their service

provider.

SIM Toolkit™ - Class 2

SIM Application Toolkit is a value-added service delivery mechanism that allows
GSM operators to customize the services they offer their customers, from the
occasional user who requests sports news and traffic alerts, to a high call time
business user who receives stock alerts and checks flight times. Operators can now
create their own value-added services menu quickly and easily in the phone. The
customized menu will appear as the first menu and may be updated over-the-air
with new services when customers request them.

Network Based Chat Messaging

The chat messaging feature provides a constant WAP connection through GPRS to
carrier, service center, or factory flexed WAP site. The specific site can also be
entered by the user. Chat messaging is a carrier option.

Personal Information Management

The V150 telephone contains a built in calendar with date book reminders and
phonebook that can be synchronized easily to a computer or PDA.

In addition to preset ring tones, V150 telephones allow the user to download
additional ring tones via SMS to your PC. (Availability is carrier and Network
dependant).

Motorola V150 phones incorporate the VibraCall® discreet vibrating alert that
helps to avoid disturbing others when a ringing phone is unacceptable.

Battery Information

Battery Charge Indicator

The telephone displays a battery charge indicator icon in the idle screen to indicate
the battery charge level. The gauge shows four levels: 100%, 66%, 33%, and Low
Battery.

Battery Removal

Removing the battery causes the device to immediately shut down and any pending
work (partially entered phone book entries or outgoing messages, for example) is
lost.

All batteries can cause property damage and/or bodily injury such as burns if a
conductive material such as jewelry, keys, or beaded chains touch exposed terminals.

E

The conductive material may complete an electrical circuit (short circuit) and
become quite hot. Exercise care in handling any charged battery, particularly when
placing it inside a pocket, purse, or other container with metal objects.

G

➧

If the battery is removed while receiving a message, the message will be lost.

To ensure proper memory retention, turn the phone OFF before removing the
battery. Immediately replace the old battery with a fresh battery.
