1 Introduction

This guide provides you with the following information:

• installation instructions for Nokia PC Suite 4.31

• instructions for using Nokia PC Suite 4.31

• wireless modem installation instructions for your Nokia phone

• configuring your data/fax software for digital data calls (using your Nokia phone as a wireless modem).

• SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS

To install and run Nokia PC Suite 4.31, you need:

• Nokia 8390 phone

• an Intel-compatible PC running Windows 95®, Windows 98®, Windows Millennium Edition® (ME), or Windows 2000®
Professional

• at least 40 megabytes of free disk space

• an infrared port on your desktop PC or laptop computer

• a compatible PC Personal Information Manager (PIM) application for use with Nokia PC Sync

Note: Nokia Content Copier (a component of Nokia PC Suite) supports a variety of Nokia phones, some of which make their
connection to a PC via serial cable. For a list of compatible phones and connection methods, please see “Compatible phones”
on page 5.

• COMPATIBLE APPLICATIONS

Nokia PC Sync is compatible with the following Personal Information Manager (PIM) applications:

• REQUIREMENTS FOR DIGITAL DATA CALLS

Before you can make digital data calls using your Nokia phone as a wireless modem:

• you must subscribe to digital data services with your service provider.

• your phone must be powered up, and digital service must be available. Digital data calls are not available when outside of the
digital network.

• your phone must be connected to your PC or handheld device via Infrared.

• your data software must be running and must be configured to recognize your Nokia phone as the active modem (instructions
to follow later in this document).

Note: This feature is available only if your service provider’s network supports digital data calls. GPRS data calls are possible
only when you are in a GPRS network. Please check with your service provider prior to sending or receiving digital data calls.

• PRINTING THIS GUIDE

You may find it helpful to print this guide for future reference.

• ABBREVIATIONS

For the purposes of this user guide, the following abbreviations are used:

• SAFETY NOTES

• Please make backup copies of all important data to protect against possible loss or alteration.

• When connecting to any other device, read its user guide for detailed safety instructions. Do not connect incompatible
products.

• To avoid any potential loss of data, you should not make or receive calls while synchronizing data between the phone and a PC.

• Do not point the IR beam at anyone’s eyes or allow it to interfere with other IR devices.

• INFRARED COMMUNICATIONS

When transferring information between your phone and PC using the various PC Suite applications, an infrared connection
between phone and PC is required. The preferable distance between the two devices in an infrared connection is a range of three
inches to three feet maximum. There must be no obstructions between the two devices and the IR ports of the two devices have
to be pointing at each other.

Your Nokia phone is a Class 1 Laser Product.

Enable infrared communications

Windows Millennium Edition (ME) and Windows 2000 users do not need to enable infrared communications on their PC prior to
using this feature. The infrared port is always active.

If you use Windows 95 or Windows 98, you can use the infrared control panel to activate or deactivate infrared communications.
During the PC Suite installation process, the installer application activates infrared communications on your PC. The infrared port
on your PC remains active until you deactivate it.

To enable infrared communications on your phone, please refer to the infrared section in your phone’s user guide.

Interruptions to infrared communications

Windows provides visual and audible notification when it senses an
interruption to infrared communications between your phone and PC.
Windows allows you to re-establish infrared communications between
the two devices so it can re-send the data that was being transferred
when the interruption occurred.

TIME-OUT

If the infrared connection between your phone and PC has not been re-established within 15 seconds, a “time-out” occurs, meaning
Windows no longer searches for your phone and terminates the infrared connection.

• IMPORTANT NOTE FOR WINDOWS ME USERS

Your phone also functions as a wireless modem and is designed to be detected by Windows Plug and Play. During the PC Suite
installation process, you are prompted to enable infrared communications on your phone, then align the infrared ports of the 2
devices.

Plug and Play detection

Because infrared is always active on your PC (including automatic software installation for Plug and Play devices), the Windows
Add New Hardware Wizard detects your phone as a new hardware device during the PC Suite installation. This interferes with the
PC Suite software installation process.

Before installing PC Suite

Nokia recommends that Windows Me users perform the modem installation prior to installing PC Suite. Please see “Wireless
modem setup for 8390” on page 27 and perform this task prior to installing Nokia PC Suite. Once you have performed the modem
installation, you may continue with the installation instructions below.

• PC SUITE INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

Please download the setup application to a location on your hard drive. If you downloaded the application in segments, please
double-click the .exe file and follow the instructions to extract the installer application from the segments.

Once the software download is complete and/or the segments have been rejoined:

1 Double-click the installation file Nokia PC Suite 4.31.exe that you downloaded to your hard drive.

2 Click Next to accept the location of the temporary installation files, or click Change to select a different location.

3 Click Next to begin the software installation wizard, then click Yes to accept the end-user license agreement.

4 Review the safety notes, then click Next.

3 Nokia Content Copier

Nokia Content Copier is a powerful application that allows you to perform
the following tasks:

• Copy data from a compatible phone to your 8390 (or between 2 Nokia
8390 phones).

• Back up your phone’s data to your PC and then restore the data back
to your phone.

• Erase data from your phone.

• COMPATIBLE PHONES

One of the most powerful features of this application is its support of other compatible phones. This capability is especially useful
if you are upgrading to a new handset and want to transfer data from your old phone to your new one. You can also use this
application to transfer information between other 8390 phones in your family.

The following table shows a list of phones compatible with Nokia Content Copier (other than 8390), as well as the method of
connection to the PC:

Important: Content Copier does not support copying data between any of the phones listed above. Data can only be read
from these phones, then copied to 8390.

Note: Nokia Content Copier does not support certain 5100 and 6100 series phones. For more information on specific models
of incompatible phones, please see “Other phones” on page 7.

• CONTENT COPIER BASICS

Nokia Content Copier uses a wizard-style interface to help you
perform the tasks listed above. If you are copying data from one
of the compatible phones above using a cable connection,
please make sure the phone is connected to your PC via cable
before you begin.

Launch Content Copier from the Start Menu (Start - Programs

- Nokia PC Suite 4 - Content Copier), then select the task you

would like to perform. Follow the on-screen instructions to
complete the task you want to perform.

The following pages contain basic information and tips on using
Nokia Content Copier.

Important: Windows Millennium Edition (ME) users should have already performed the wireless modem installation before
installing PC Suite. If the Add New Hardware Wizard launches when you establish an infrared connection between phone
and PC, please click the wizard’s Cancel button. Close Content Copier, then proceed to “Wireless modem setup for 8390” on
page 27 and follow the instructions. You can return to Content Copier once the modem setup has been completed.

Copy information from the source phone

If you select either Copy data from one phone to another or Copy data
from a phone to a PC, Content Copier will transfer all compatible data

types (Phone book, Calendar, To-do, Caller groups, etc.) from the
compatible phone (or “source” phone).

• If you are copying the data from the source phone to your Nokia
8390, the data is stored in your PC’s memory temporarily. Once you
have connected your 8390 (“target” phone) via infrared, Nokia
Content Copier transfers the information from your PC’s memory into
your phone.

• If you are copying your phone’s data and want to save it on your PC,
Nokia Content Copier guides you through the process of saving the
information as a comma-separated value text file (.csv) on your PC’s
hard drive.

SAVE THE SOURCE PHONE DATA

Once the source phone’s data has been read, Content Copier allows you
to save the information to your PC’s hard drive. Click the Save Data
button, then navigate to the location on your hard drive where you want
the information stored.

Nokia Content Copier automatically names the files for you, based on the
type of data that is read from the source phone.

Nokia Connection Manager

You may need to use Nokia Connection Manager to select the type of connection you want Content
Copier to use during various stages of the process. For example, if you select Copy data from one phone
to another, and the source phone requires a serial cable, click Content Copier’s Connection button to
launch Connection Manager. Then select the correct cable option for the source phone.

To switch connection type while using Content Copier:

1 Establish the appropriate connection between your phone and PC (via

IR, DLR-3P, or DAU9-9P), then click the Connection button.

2 Click the desired connection type, then click Select.

3 Allow Nokia Connection Manager to detect your phone.

4 Click OK to return to Nokia Content Copier.

If your phone is not detected right away, switch to one of the other
connection types, then back to the desired connection type. This forces
Connection Manager to redetect your phone.

Note: If you are copying data from one phone to another and the source phone uses an infrared connection, stop the infrared
connection between source phone and PC. Allow the Windows warning message regarding interrupted infrared
communications to completely time-out before aligning the target phone with your PC’s infrared port. By doing so, you allow
Connection Manager to detect your phone more quickly.

Copy information to the target phone

Before you can copy information to the target phone, you need to load
the information into the PC’s memory.

• If you selected Copy data from one phone to another, you should
have already gone through the steps needed to read information from
the source phone.

• If you selected Copy data from a PC to a phone, you should have
already saved the source phone’s data to your PC via the Copy data

from a phone to a PC option. Click Next, then click the Select source
Folder button. Locate the directory containing the information you

want to use.

Once the source phone’s information has been read into your PC’s memory (or loaded from your PC’s hard drive), you are asked to
determine the types of information you want copied into your phone. The compatible data types are displayed along with the ability
to select the types of data you wish to transfer.

Use the check boxes next to the data types to select or deselect the information you want to copy to your phone, then click Next.

The ringing tone is transferred to your phone, then sent as an SMS to the recipient.

• CREATE RINGING TONES FROM MIDI FILES

Nokia PC Composer allows you to open Standard MIDI files, then convert the data to ringing tone format. Now you can carry your
favorite PC MIDI file as a ringing tone in your phone.

About Standard MIDI files

Standard MIDI files of popular music frequently consist of multiple instruments (bass, drums, organ, etc.). Typically, there is also a
track dedicated to the song’s melody. There are two types of Standard MIDI files:

• Type 0 files - 1 track of MIDI data containing all the various instruments; each instrument assigned to different MIDI “channel.”

• Type 1 files - each instrument has its own dedicated track and MIDI channel. Track/instrument names are embedded in the file
as text information.

PC Composer’s interface interprets the multiple track information and allows you to choose the correct track or instrument.

Before you begin

If the MIDI sequence you want to use contains too many notes, the following
error message is displayed when trying to open the file:

Nokia PC Composer processes MIDI notes in octave 5 and 6 of the MIDI
keyboard. If your MIDI sequence contains notes outside this range, the
following error message is displayed when opening the file:

OPEN A STANDARD MIDI FILE

To open a MIDI file:
