Congratulations on purchasing the Nokia 9000i
Communicator. The Nokia 9000i Communicator
is a versatile communications tool: it is a mobile
phone, messaging device, access terminal and a
palmtop organiser in one compact package.
This chapter helps you understand how the Nokia
9000i Communicator operates. The following
"Getting started" chapter helps you begin using
the Nokia 9000i Communicator, as it explains
the start-up procedure and outlines the special
features. The rest of this manual deals with the
communicator interface applications and the
phone interface.
If you are an experienced mobile phone and mobile office user, read at least this introductory
chapter and the "Getting started" chapter. Basic
information about the communicator applications is always available in the context sensitive
help, which can be activated by pressing the Help
button on the communicator interface keyboard.
The Nokia 9000i Communicator has two interfaces, the phone interface (see figure 1-1) and
the communicator interface (see figure 1-2). The
phone interface is on the device cover and the
communicator interface is under the cover.
The word “interface” emphasises the fact that
both of these two aspects of the Nokia 9000i
Communicator use the same resources and work
closely together - they are not separate devices.
For example, the phone interface uses the names
and phone numbers stored in the communicator
interface’s Contacts directory, and the communicator interface uses the phone interface for communicating with the “outside world” (for
Figure 1-1
Figure 1-2
1998 Nokia Mobile Phones. All Rights Reserved.
Page 8
1-2Things to remember
example, when sending or receiving faxes and
connecting to remote computers).
The phone interface is designed for making and
receiving calls quickly. It looks and operates like
other Nokia mobile phones (except that the earpiece and microphone are on the backside of the
device). The phone interface is switched on and
off by pressing the button on the cover.
Things to remember
Services
In order to utilise the communication capabilities
of the Nokia 9000i Communicator, you may have
to subscribe to certain services separately. If the
service requires a separate phone number or specific settings, they must be stored in the communicator’s settings. For example,
• Fax sending and receiving requires that fax
service is supported by the network you are
using and activated for your SIM card.
• Using the communicator as a fax modem
requires that data service is supported by the
network you are using and activated for your
SIM card.
• Internet access also requires that data service
is supported by the network you are using and
activated for your SIM card. In addition, to
access the Internet, you must have obtained an
Internet access point from an Internet service
provider (contact your dealer for details).
Document outbox
To help with cellular data transmission (see
chapter 16 "Important safety information: Facts
about cellular data transmission" on page 16-3),
the communicator has an outgoing communications manager called the Document outbox.
When you send faxes, short messages and mail,
they always go first to the Document outbox. The
outbox prepares your fax, short message or mail
and then sends it through the phone interface. If
the phone interface is off or the cellular signal
IMPORTANT! Do not switch on the phone interface when mobile phone use is prohibited or
when it may cause interference or danger.
The communicator interface has many organiser
and communication applications. The QWERTY
keyboard, command buttons and large display
make using the applications easy. The communi-
cator interface has no power on/off button – the
communicator interface activates itself when
you open the cover and deactivates when you
close the cover.
strength is inadequate, the document will not be
sent until the phone interface is switched on and
the signal strength is sufficient. You do not have
to worry about whether the phone or fax called
might be off or busy: after the first attempt, the
Document outbox tries to send the document
nine more times.
The Document outbox can be accessed in the Fax,
SMS, Mail and Notes applications’ main views,
where it is shown at the bottom of the folders
list. The Document outbox is discussed in more
detail in chapter 12 "Document outbox" on page
12-1.
There is no document inbox. When you receive
faxes, short messages or fetch mail, they go directly in their own received document folders.
Each application shows a received document
folder containing documents that can be viewed
in that application. For example, the Fax application shows the Received faxes folder and the
Mail application shows the Received mail folder.
Access codes
The communicator uses several access codes to
protect against unauthorised use of your communicator and the SIM card. You can make
changes to the access codes in the settings of the
Security application (see chapter 10 "System: Security" on page 10-2) or in the phone interface
(see chapter 13 "Phone interface: Menus - Security options (Menu 5)" on page 13-11).
1998 Nokia Mobile Phones. All Rights Reserved.
Page 9
Chapter 1 - Introduction1-3
For access codes that can be changed and are
used by both interfaces, you can make the
changes via either interface.
The communicator interface’s Internet applications use passwords and user names to protect
from unauthorised use of the Internet and Internet services. These passwords are changed in the
settings of the Internet applications.
The access codes you need most often are the
lock code (provided in the sales package) and the
Personal Identity Number (PIN) code (provided
with the SIM card). The access codes are described in more detail in chapter 10 "System: Security" on page 10-2. See also chapter 13 "Phone
interface: Menus - Security options (Menu 5)" on
page 13-11.
Contact information
All contact information (names, addresses,
phone numbers, E-mail addresses, etc.) you store
goes into the Contacts directory. Each application and interface has its own view of the Contacts directory. The information shown depends
on the information the selected application can
use. For example, when you are making a call via
the phone interface, you can view the name and
the phone number(s) of the contact – possible
fax numbers, E-mail addresses, job titles, etc., are
not shown.
You can customise your contact information according to your preferences, see chapter 3 "Contacts: Contact cards - Customising contact
cards" on page 3-2. Customising only affects
new contact information; existing contacts will
not be affected. If you customise your contact
card template in an early phase, you will not
have to edit your contact cards manually.
Texts
With the communicator interface’s text editor,
you can create new texts in many applications
(Notes, Fax, SMS, Mail, Calendar). The editor,
however, works in each application in a way that
corresponds to the sending format of that application. For example, because short messages
cannot contain text formattings, the SMS editor
removes text formattings. For this reason, the
text editor is called Note editor in the Notes application, Mail editor in the Mail application, and

When you activate the communicator interface
after having removed and replaced the battery,
you will always see first a welcome screen while
the device performs a self-test. The following
steps, however, will be shown only during the
first, personalisation, start-up.
1 If you have not already installed your SIM
card, install it, as described in ”SIM card” on
page 2-2, and switch on the phone interface.
If you do not have a SIM card yet, go to the
nex t ste p ( se e t he s ec tio n ” SI M ca rd co nt en ts”
on page 2-2).
Although you do not need a SIM card to use the
communicator interface, a SIM card is required
to send and receive calls and documents.

change your home city later in the Clock application, see chapter 11 "Extras: Clock" on
page 11-3.
4 Accept or change the date shown and press
OK. If you change the date, use the format
dd.mm.yy (for example, 24.08.97). You can
later change the date format in the System
settings. (Time and date can be changed in
the Clock application’s settings.)
5 Accept or change the time shown and press OK.

hh:min (for example, 17:25). You can later
change the time format in the System settings.
6 Enter user data and press OK. You can later
change the information in the System application’s User data view.
The personalisation procedure is now completed.
SIM card contents
After the personalisation procedure, if the installed SIM card contains stored names or numbers, you will be asked if you want to copy the
SIM card
SIM card contents into the communicator’s
memory (Contacts directory). If the phone interface is switched off, the question will be asked
the next time the phone interface is on and you
activate the communicator interface.
If you want to do the copying later, you can answer no, and do it manually via the phone interface, see chapter 13 "Phone interface: Menus Memory functions (Menu 8)" on page 13-13.
After start-up, the communicator (or “B”) memory is selected automatically as the active memory. If you want, you may later set the phone
interface to use the SIM card (“A”) memory instead of the communicator memory. The communicator interface applications, however, will
always use the communicator memory. Also, the
communicator memory can hold much more information than the SIM card memory.
All phone numbers copied from the SIM memory
to the Contacts directory will go to the Tel field
of the contact cards. Therefore, you must move
all mobile phone numbers manually into the correct field. See chapter 3 "Contacts: Contact
cards" on page 3-1.
A valid miniature plug-in SIM (Subscriber Identity Module) card is required for making and receiving calls. The card is supplied by your
network operator or service provider.
The SIM card contains all information the cellular network needs for identification of the network user. The network operator or service
provider may prevent the use of the communicator with any other but the operator’s or provider’s own SIM cards. If an unacceptable SIM card

1998 Nokia Mobile Phones. All Rights Reserved.
Charging the battery
Use only chargers approved by the communicator
manufacturer for charging a Lithium-Ion battery.
The communicator can be used during charging.
To charge a battery with the adapter and a charger:
1 Install the battery.
2 Attach the adapter to the bottom of the com-
municator as shown in figure 2-7. Insert the
curved pin into the right-hand side aperture
at the end of the communicator. Push the left
side of the adapter gently towards the com-
Page 15

municator until the left locking pin engages.
(If you try to force the adapter into place upside down, you may accidentally break off the
curved guiding pin.)
Figure 2-7
3 Connect the charger lead to the adapter, as
shown in figure 2-8.
Figure 2-8
4 Connect the charger to an AC wall outlet. If
the phone interface is switched on, the
CHARGING message appears on the display
and segments of the battery indicator bar on
the right side of the phone interface display
will start scrolling. (Charging information is
also shown on the communicator interface
display, see ”Indicators” on page 2-9.)
5 When the battery is fully charged (the bars stop
scrolling and five bars are displayed), you may
remove the adapter from the communicator:
Hold down the release button on the left side
of the adapter (see figure 2-7), and turn the
adapter away from the communicator.
When the charge is low and only a few minutes
of operation time remain, a warning tone will be
heard, and the message BATTERY LOW will be repeated at regular intervals on the display. When
the charge level becomes too low for operation,
the RECHARGE BATTERY message will be displayed, accompanied by a warning tone. If you do
not connect the communicator to a charger, the
communicator automatically switches itself off.
Note: If the tones have been switched off (see
chapter 4 "Telephone: Telephone settings
- Ringing settings" on page 4-6), only the
display messages will appear.
Using the battery
Use only batteries approved by the communicator
manufacturer. With approved chargers and accessories, the battery can be charged continuously.
The battery need not be fully discharged before
recharging. When a charger is not in use, disconnect it from the power source.
The battery can be charged and discharged hundreds of times, but it will eventually wear out.
When the operation time (talk-time and standby
time) is noticeably shorter than normal, it is time
to buy a new battery.
Temperature extremes will affect the ability of
your battery to charge: it may require cooling or
warming first.
Battery operation time is affected by the following: whether both interfaces are on, radio signal
strength, various phone settings, and the length
of the communicator interface’s screen blanker
period (set in System application’s settings, see
chapter 10 "System: System settings" on page
10-1).
It is recommended always to keep a charged battery in the communicator. Keeping the battery
charged maximises the lifetime of the backup battery supplying power to the communicator’s realtime clock. In case the backup battery is drained,
it may be replaced by qualified personnel.
Always close the device cover before removing
the battery. Closing the cover will save all data.

Note:
• Use the battery only for its intended purpose.
• Never use any charger or battery that is
damaged or worn out.
• Do not short circuit the battery. Accidental
short circuiting can occur when a metallic
object (coin, clip or pen) causes direct
connection of the + and - terminals of the
battery, for example, when you carry a spare
battery in your pocket or purse. Short
circuiting the terminals may damage the
battery or the connecting object.
Communicator interface
• Leaving the battery in hot or cold places, such
as in a closed car in summer or winter conditions, will reduce the capacity and lifetime of
the battery. Always try to keep the battery
between +15° C (+59° F) and +25° C (+77° F).
A communicator with a hot or cold battery
may temporarily not work, even when the
battery is fully charged. Li-Ion batteries’
performance is particularly limited in temperatures below 0° C (+32° F).
• Dispose of used batteries in accordance with
local regulations. Recycle! Do not dispose of
batteries in a fire!

Page 27
Chapter 3 - Contacts3-3
(number 1 is reserved for calling your voice mailbox, see chapter 4 "Telephone: Telephone settings" on page 4-6). For information on how to use
the speed dials, see chapter 13 "Phone interface:
Using memory - Dialling shortcuts" on page 13-5.
To set speed dials:

Storing DTMF tones
The Dual Tone Multi Frequency (DTMF) tones allow you to communicate with voice mailboxes,
computerised telephony systems, etc. For information on how to send DTMF tones, see chapter
4 "Telephone: Managing calls - Sending DTMF
tones" on page 4-5, or chapter 13 "Phone interface: Sending DTMF tones" on page 13-3.
• If you only communicate with the contact
using DTMF tones, create a contact card for
the DTMF contact.
• If you need both a voice and a DTMF phone
number for the contact, add a new field to an
existing contact card. The DTMF sequence can
be stored either in the Tel field, after the telephone number, or separately, in a DTMF field.
If you store the sequence in a Tel field, the
phone number and the DTMF sequence must
be separated by one of the DTMF special characters. Label the field (with Change label) so
you can identify the DTMF sequence.
The DTMF special characters are listed in the
following table:
CharacterFunction
* and #
p (pause)
w (wait)
May be used if the DTMF
service requires them.
Inserts a pause of 2.5 seconds in front of, or between,
DTMF digits.
When the “w” character is
stored in a sequence, the
rest of the sequence is not
sent until you press Send
again in the Telephone
application.
Table 3-1
Logs
The Contacts application shows all communication events as two logs:

Contacts directory and the phone interface
Copying contact information between the interfaces is possible only via the phone interface (see
chapter 13 "Phone interface: Menus - Memory
functions (Menu 8)" on page 13-13, except when
a new SIM card is inserted into the communicator and you open the communicator interface. In
that case, you will be prompted to confirm the
copying of the SIM memory contents into the
Contacts directory, as described in chapter 2
"Getting started: First start-up - SIM card contents" on page 2-2.
When the memory contents of a SIM card are
copied to the directory, the Contacts application
will create the same number of new contact
cards as the number of memory locations in use
on the SIM card. The numbers in the SIM card
memory locations are inserted in the Tel field of
the contact card.
When contact information is copied from the
Contacts directory to the SIM card, the contact
names may not fully fit in the SIM card’s memory.
Entering contact information
via the phone interface
Entering new or editing existing contact names
and phone numbers via the phone interface will
create a new contact card in the Contacts directory. See chapter 13 "Phone interface: Using
memory - Storing information via the phone interface" on page 13-5.
Note: When you store or copy phone numbers
from the phone interface to the Contacts
directory, the phone numbers go to the Tel
field, not to the Tel(GSM) or Tel(PCN) field.
Sending SMS messages requires, however,
that the recipient’s mobile phone number
is stored in the Tel(GSM) or Tel(PCN) field.
Check that the phone numbers are in the correct
fields in the contact card.

Changing the settings of
network services
The network services call diverting, call barring

Information about the status of these services is
stored in the network. Therefore, the current settings are not shown until you request the information from the network by pressing Get status.
While the communicator is making a request to
the network, a query note is shown on the display. After a successful request, the new status
now appears on the settings list.

calls are diverted, even if you cancel the diverts.
Choose a divert mode:
Divert all calls — All incoming calls are diverted.

The voice call barring network service allows you
to place restrictions on outgoing and incoming
voice calls (fax barring is activated in the Fax application’s settings and data barring is activated
in the Internet application’s settings). Activating
call barring or changing the barring settings requires the barring password, which you obtain
from the operator. Once you have the barring
password, you can change it in the Security settings (the Security application is found in the
System main view).
The available modes are:
All outgoing calls — Calls cannot be made.
All international calls — Calls cannot be made to
foreign countries.
International except home country — When
abroad, calls can be made only within the current
country and to your home country, i.e., the country where your home network operator is located.
All incoming calls — Calls cannot be received.
Incoming calls when abroad — Calls cannot be re-
ceived when you are outside your home country.
Note: When calls are barred, calls may be possi-
ble to certain emergency numbers in some
networks (e.g., 112 or other official emergency number).
Voice call waiting
When the network service voice call waiting is set
on, the network will notify you of a new incoming
voice call while you have a call in progress. If your
network allows you to view the caller’s phone
number, the caller’s phone number (or name) and
the text WAITING will be displayed.
Calling card settings
If you want to change the calling card settings,
you need to enter your lock code first.
Card in use — Allows you to determine which
card you want to use.
Calling cards — Allows you to edit or delete existing cards or add new ones.
Single number settings
In some networks you have the same phone
number for all your voice, fax and data calls. If
you want to receive any calls, you must set your
phone to some answering mode. The available
modes are Voice, Fax, Data and Voice/Fax.

a certain IP address (see below). Host names
are used because they are easier to remember
than IP addresses.
Hypertext Markup Language (HTML)
A language used to define WWW documents’
appearance and content.
Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP)
A document transfer protocol used in the
WWW system.
Images (Inline, External)
Images within a fetched WWW page are inline images. Larger images are often placed as
external images and have to be viewed separately.
Internet Access Point
Where your communicator connects to Internet by way of a data call. An Internet access
provider can be, for example, a commercial Internet service provider or your own company.
Internet Mail Access Protocol, version 4
(IMAP4)
A protocol used for accessing the remote
mailbox.
Internet Protocol (IP) address
All computers and other devices connected to
the Internet using the Internet Protocol have
their own individual addresses. The address
consists of four numbers separated by full
stops: for example, “131.227.21.167.”
Multipurpose Internet Mail Extensions (MIME)
A standard Internet format which permits including multiple mail objects in a single message. The mail objects can be, for example,
formatted multifont text messages and nontextual elements, such as images and audio
fragments.
Plug-in
A plug-in is add-on software that can be
downloaded from the WWW. The communicator uses plug-ins to display a document that
the WWW application itself cannot show. See
”Plug-ins” on page 7-15.
Point to Point Protocol (PPP)
A common networking software protocol
making it possible for any computer with a
modem and a phone line to connect directly
to the Internet.
Post Office Protocol, version 3 (POP3)
Another common mail protocol that can be
used for accessing the remote mailbox.
Protocol
A formal set of rules that govern how data is
transferred between two devices.
Proxy
In some networks, the connection between
the WWW application and the resource you
want to connect to is blocked by a firewall.
The firewall protects the internal network
from unauthorised external access. A proxy is
an intermediary program which enables access through the firewall. A proxy can also
serve as a network “cache”, which speeds up
the fetching process.
Simple Mail Transport Protocol (SMTP)
An Internet protocol governing the transfer of
electronic mail.

window, one will always be selected (see figure
7-7).
Hyperlinks are links to other documents or images, used to send or receive information from the
World Wide Web.
Hotspots (such as selection lists, text entry fields
and reset/submit buttons) enable you to input
information into the World Wide Web.
Use the scroll buttons to scroll the view and to
choose hyperlinks and hotspots. Each scroll key
press selects the nearest hyperlink or hotspot, or
moves the view one line up or down.
The following commands may be available in this

History activates the History view. You can se-
lect a previously fetched WWW page from the
list and press Fetch. The history list contains the
most recently fetched documents (and their URLs
– shown in the URL entry box). After the maximum list length is reached, older pages are deleted one by one as new ones are stored.
If you wish to clear the list, choose Clear now. All
the items from the History list and the cache will
be deleted.
Viewing images
Images that are part of the fetched WWW page
are called inline images. By default, inline images
are not fetched with the WWW page (see the option Autoload images in ”WWW settings” on
page 7-11), but will be displayed as icons. To
fetch an image, select the icon and press Fetch image.

selected image map contains a cursor which can
be moved with the keyboard arrow keys. When
you press Fetch, the pixel coordinates of the cursor are sent to the URL, and the corresponding
WWW page is fetched.
Images that are separate documents and not part
of a hypertext document are called external images. When an external image is fetched, it is
viewed separately from the hypertext document
in the image viewer.
The external image viewer commands are:
Copy image copies the external image in the
Downloaded files folder with its server-given
name.
View enables zooming, see chapter 5 "Fax:
Received faxes" on page 5-3.

Editing
When you open a document, the document is
opened in the appropriate editor or viewer (received faxes are opened in the fax viewer, downloaded figures in the image viewer, etc.). The
available commands vary according to the editor/viewer.
If the opened document is very large (dozens of
pages), the time required before the document
opens and can be scrolled or edited is longer than
with smaller documents.
Documents that open in the Note editor can be
directly edited and formatted. To format the text,
press Style. The following options are available:
Font: URW Mono / URW Roman /URW Sans
(default) (true type fonts)

Caps lock key has been pressed.
To enter special characters from the character
table:
1 Press and release the Chr key and a special
character table opens on the screen.
2 Move the selection frame over the desired
special character with the arrow keys, scroll
buttons or by pressing a keyboard key.
3 Press Insert to close the character table and
to insert the selected character to the left of
the cursor.
To insert special characters from the keyboard:

Pressing Close will close the security settings
view and return to the Security main view.
Figure 10-2
The security settings list is as follows:
PIN code request — On / Off (default)
If you set the PIN (Personal Identity Number)
code request on, the system requests the code
every time when the phone interface is turned
on by pressing . You can also turn the PIN
code request on or off in the phone interface
Security options menu (Menu 5 1). This setting cannot be changed if the phone interface
is switched off.
Note: Some SIM cards do not allow you to turn
the PIN code request off.
If you enter the PIN code incorrectly three
times in a row, you will need a PUK code to
unblock the SIM card. When the SIM card is
blocked, you cannot make or receive any calls
(including faxes, short messages, mail, etc.),
except emergency calls. Otherwise, the communicator can be used normally.
Autolock period — Autolock off (default) / 1 / 2 / 5
/ 10 / 15 minutes
This setting determines the security time-out
period, after which the system will lock. The
timer is reset by any input, calls or data transfer/printing activity.
SIM change security — On (default) / Off
When active, this security option checks
whether the SIM card in the communicator
has been changed. The check is made every
time the phone interface is switched on. The
SIM change security option can also be activated in the phone interface Security options
menu (Menu 5 2).
If the SIM card has been changed and the
new SIM card has not previously been used
with your communicator, the communicator
locks itself until the lock code, supplied with
the phone, is correctly entered. The communicator recognises five different SIM cards as
the owner’s cards.
PIN code
When the phone interface is switched on, this
setting allows you to change the PIN code.
The changing procedure is as described at the
beginning of this "Security" section. The new
PIN code must be 4 to 8 digits long. The PIN
code can also be changed in the phone interface Security options menu (Menu 5 6 2).
The PIN code is supplied with the SIM card.
When the PIN code request is enabled, the
code is required each time the phone interface is switched on. The PIN code request
must be turned on to change the code.
If you enter a wrong PIN code three times in
succession, the PIN code is disabled and cannot be used any more. At the prompt, key in
the PUK code (see below) and follow the instructions on the display.

When the phone interface is switched on, this
setting allows you to change the barring
password. The new code must be 4 digits long.
The barring password can also be changed in
the phone interface Security options menu
(Menu 5 6 4).
The barring password is needed to change call
barrings, see chapter 4 "Telephone: Telephone
settings" on page 4-6. You obtain the password from your network operator when you
subscribe to the service.
If the password is changed correctly, the communicator requests the network to perform the
desired operation (see chapter 4 "Telephone:
Telephone settings - Changing the settings of
network services" on page 4-6).
Other codes
PIN2 code (4 to 8 digits)
The PIN2 code can only be changed in the phone
interface Security options menu (Menu 5 3).
The PIN2 code is supplied with some SIM
cards. The PIN2 code is required to access
some functions, such as call charging unit
counters, which must be supported by the
SIM card. If you enter a wrong PIN2 code
three times in succession, the PIN2 code is
disabled and cannot be used any more.
PUK and PUK2 codes (8 digits)
You cannot change the PUK (PIN Unblocking
Key) codes. If you lose the code, contact your
network operator.
The PUK is supplied with the SIM card. The
code is required when you want to change a
disabled PIN code. If you enter a wrong PUK
code ten times in succession, the SIM card is
rejected and you cannot make or receive any
calls, except emergency calls. Contact your
network operator for a new card.
The PUK2 code is supplied with some SIM
cards. The code is required when you want to
change a disabled PIN2 code. If you enter a
wrong code ten times in succession, you will
not be able to access the functions which require the PIN2 code. To utilise these functions, contact your network operator for a
new card.

Chapter 10 - System10-5
Connecting to a PC
To use the System applications that allow you to
connect to a PC (File transfer, Install/Remove
software, Backup/Restore, Import/Export contacts, Import/Export calendar data), you must
first install the Nokia Communicator Server programme (provided on a diskette in the sales
package) on the PC and then launch it. The Nokia
Communicator Server software requires Microsoft Windows 3.1 (or later) or Windows NT 3.51
(or later) and a free serial or infrared (IrDA compatible) port to run. See the readme.txt file on
the diskette supplied in the communicator sales
package.
To install the connectivity software on the PC:
1 Insert the diskette in your diskette drive.
2 In the Program Manager of your Windows,
click on the “File” menu.
3 Click on menu item “Run” and type a:\server
in the command line.
4 Press Enter.
5 Follow the instructions shown on the screen.
To establish an infrared serial connection:
1 The IrDA software must be installed and run-
ning on your PC in order to establish an infrared connection. If you have Windows 95, you
will need to download the IrDA driver software from the Internet site of Microsoft. The
default IrDA port for the software is COM4;
however, the physical port may be COM1 or
COM2.
2 Make sure that the communicator’s infrared
port faces the infrared port of the PC (or
printer). Keep the infrared link clear – check
the infrared indicators in the indicator area,
see chapter 2 "Getting started: Indicators" on
page 2-9. In the event the infrared link is ob-
structed for too long (for example, something
is moved between the infrared sensors or the
communicator is moved), the operation is interrupted.
3 Start the connectivity software on the PC.
Check that the COM port reported by the connectivity software is correct.
Note: When using the communicator as a fax
modem, use the infrared connection (see
”Fax modem” on page 10-6).
To establish a serial cable connection:
1 Connect the adapter to the communicator (for
instructions on how to do this, see chapter 2
"Getting started: Connectors" on page 2-4).
2 Connect the 9-pin adapter end of the RS-232
cable to the COM port of the PC and the other
end to the adapter (into the connector on the
left side of the adapter).
3 Start the connectivity software on the PC.
Check that the COM port reported by the connectivity software is correct.
After you have established a connection to a PC
and the connectivity software is running on the
PC, you can start the communicator’s connectivity applications. When the PC connection is active, the call status indicator shows the text PCCONN. If the connection to the PC cannot be created, check the settings of the connectivity application. You must define the COM port and the
PC drive or path correctly.
Note: Making or answering to phone calls during
a PC connection is not recommended as it
might disrupt the operation.
Remember to make backup copies of all important data!

10-6Fax modem
Fax modem
Before your computer can recognise the communicator as a fax modem, the computer needs to
be properly configured. Consult the user’s guide
of your computer on how to install new modems.
Computers with Microsoft Windows 95 or NT
3.51 (or higher) operating systems can use the
modem information file found on the Nokia
Communicator Server diskette. See also the re-adme.txt file on the diskette.
Using the communicator as a fax modem requires that data calls are supported by the network you are using and that this service is
activated for your SIM card. If you want to receive data calls, your SIM card also needs a data
number. Contact your home service provider for
details.
1 Connect the communicator to the PC via an
infrared link as described in ”Connecting to a
PC” on page 10-5.
2 Wait until the connection is established.
3 Press Activate in the Fax modem main view.
This will change the communicator to a fax
modem. When the communicator is used as a
fax modem, the call status indicator shows
the text MODEM.
4 To stop using communicator as a fax modem,
press Disable.
Operations of a modem can be controlled by AT
commands and S-registers. These commands
give the advanced user an opportunity to control
all the features of the modem. However, it is not
always necessary to enter the AT commands
manually. Most PC communications applications
have a user-friendly interface that hides the AT
commands from the user. Should you need to enter the commands manually, consult the documentation of the PC application that you are
using. A list of the common AT commands (based
on the ETSI 07.07 standard) supported by the Nokia 9000i Communicator are available as an ASCII text file on the diskette that came with the
sales package of your communicator.
When the communicator is used as a fax modem,
its normal communication features are disabled
(otherwise, the applications remain functional).
If an active PC connection is idle for longer than
20 minutes, the fax modem mode is automatically disabled to conserve power. However, when
the communicator is connected to an electrical
outlet (for example, while charging a battery),
the time-out is not active.
To change the Fax modem settings, press Set-tings and select:
Connection type — Infrared (recommended)/
Cable. The cable connection is intended for
use with the communicator’s own PC connectivity applications for backup, file transfer,
export/import and software installation purposes. The functionality of a cable connection
when the communicator is used as a fax modem is not guaranteed.
File transfer
To select the serial connection type (infrared or
cable) and the PC drive used, press Settings in
File transfer application’s main view.

Clock
The Clock shows the time and date in your home
city and country, as well as in several other cities
and countries in the world. The Clock also includes an alarm clock.
The “Alarm active” symbol and time of the alarm
are shown only if an alarm is active.
Calculating percentages
The following examples demonstrate the principles for calculating percentages with Calculator:
• How much is 20% of 1000?
1000 * 20% = 200
• What percent of 50 is 10?
10 / 50% = 20
• What would be a 22% markup of 500?
500 + 22% = 610
• What would be a 17.5% discount of 500?
500 - 17.5% = 412.5
• How much is 20%?
20% = 0.2
Alarm clock
The Alarm clock is activated with the Alarm
clock command in the Clock main view. The
alarms will occur according to the home city
time (note this when in a different time zone, e.g.
when travelling abroad).
An alarm can be set to occur within the next 24
hours. Alarms that occur later than this are set in
the Calendar application.

12. Document outbox
Figure 12-1
All documents you send go through the Document outbox. The Document outbox sends the
documents whenever it is possible (see also
chapter 1 "Introduction: Things to remember" on
page 1-2).
The Document outbox can be accessed in the Fax,
SMS, Mail and Notes applications’ main views,
where it is shown at the bottom of the folders
list. To open the Document outbox, select the
Document outbox from the list and press Open.
The document at the top of the list will be sent
next. The document’s position in the list reflects
its sending status. As the status changes, the
document will be moved up or down the list. For

at the bottom of the list and Document outbox
will try to send it again later.
The main statuses that documents can have:
• Sending — The document is currently being
sent.
• Waiting — The document is waiting for
sending to become possible (e.g., when the
phone interface is switched on, cellular signal
strength becomes adequate, previous phone
call ends).
• Retry [time]— Sending of the document failed
and it will be sent again later (at the time
given in square brackets).
• Queued — The document is waiting for its turn
in the sending queue.
• At [time] — The fax is waiting to be sent at the
time you have specified (see chapter 5 "Fax:
Fax settings" on page 5-4).
• Sending [current page/total pages] — The
number of the fax page that is being sent and
the total number of the pages.
• [number] % sent — An E-mail message is
being sent, and the Document outbox shows
the percentage that has been sent.

Making a call
The communicator can make and receive calls
only when:
• The phone interface is switched on.
• The communicator has a valid SIM card fitted.
• The communicator is located in the service
area of the cellular network ( is shown).
Note: Emergency calls to the international
emergency number 112 can usually be
made without the SIM card. Check with
your network operator. For more information about making emergency calls, see
chapter 16 "Important safety information:
Emergency calls" on page 16-2.

Page 100
13-4Using memory
Automatic transmission
In order to send DTMF tones automatically, you
must store them first. Storing DTMF strings is
most conveniently done in the communicator interface, see chapter 3 "Contacts: Contact cards Storing DTMF tones" on page 3-3. If you want to
store DTMF strings in the phone interface, see
"Using memory: Storing information via the
phone interface" on page 13-5.
1 Press Memory. Key in the name of the con-
tact card that contains the DTMF service
phone number and the DTMF digits and press
Find.
For how to recall information, see "Using
memory: Recalling information" on page 13-5.
Using memory
The phone numbers and names you store are normally located in the standard memory of the
communicator, indicated by the letter “B” on the
phone interface display.
The “B” memory is the communicator memory,
known as the Contacts directory. When the communicator is started up for the first time, the “B”
memory is selected automatically.
The “A” memory is located on the SIM card that
is inserted in the communicator. The SIM card
memory uses numbered memory locations to
store data. When numbers are saved in the SIM
card (“A”) memory, a message will indicate its location number. The number of standard memory
locations available on SIM cards varies from one
card to another.
When the “A” memory is selected, the phone interface stores all contact information on the SIM
card and cannot access the Contacts directory.
Therefore, the use of the communications applications of the communicator interface will be
less convenient (you will have to enter most contact information manually). This manual will assume that you use the standard “B” memory.
Note: When stored DTMF tones are recalled in
the phone interface, only DTMF strings
that have been stored in a Tel field can be
used.
2 When the recalled string (containing the
phone number and the DTMF digits) is on the
display, press .
After the connection has been established,
the DTMF tones will be sent directly, after a
small pause (if the sequence contained the p
character) or after you press for the second time (if the sequence contained the w
character).
Keying in a name
1 Press the Memory selection key to switch to
the alpha mode (the indicator is shown
on the phone interface display).
2 Press the key that has the desired character.
If the character you want is not the first to be
displayed, press the key again within one second (before the cursor appears) to display the
next character. Keep pressing the key until
the desired character appears.
3 If you miss a character, keep pressing the key
until it appears again; or first press and
then start pressing the key again.
If you want a lower case character, press and
hold a key until the character appears in lower case. All further letters will appear in lower
case until a key is pressed and held once
again.
To enter a space between characters, press .
To correct a mistake, press .
