Before you use your Palm V™ Modem, you must:

■

Install the batteries.

■

Atta ch y o u r mo d em to y ou r organize r.

■

Connect an analog phone or wireless phone cable to your modem.

■

Configure your computer.

■

Installing the batteries

To use your modem, you must first
install two AAA alkaline batteries. The
batteries fit in the compartment behind
the battery door on the back of the
modem.

20 percent of battery life remaining, it will sound three short beeps,
which will repeat every 5 minutes until the batteries are drained.
Replace the batteries as soon as possible.

This adapter complies with Part 68 of the FCC rules. A label is affixed to the adapter that
contains, amon g other thi ngs , the FCC regist ration number, USOC and Ringer Equiva­lency Number (REN) for this equipment. If these numbers are requested, provide this
information to your telep hone company.

The REN is useful to determine the quantity of devices you may connect to your tele­phone line and still have those devices ring when your number is called. In most, but
not all areas, the sum of the RENs of all devices should not exceed five (5.0). To be cer­tain of the number of devices you may connect to your line, as determined by the REN,
you should call your local telephone company to determine the maximum REN for your
calling area.

If the adapter causes harm to the telephone network, the telephone company may dis­continue your service temporarily. If possible, they will notify you in advance; if ad­vance notice is not practical, you will be notified as soon as possible. You will be advised
of your right to file a complaint with the FCC.

Your telephone company may make changes in its facilities, equipment, operations, or
procedures that could affect the proper operation of your equipment. If they do, you
will be given advance notice to give you an opportunity to maintain uninterrupted ser­vice.

If you experience trouble with this product, contact your Authorized Reseller, or call
3Com at [phone]. You may be requi red to present p roof of purch ase.

The telephone company may ask you to disconnect the adapter from the network until
the problem has been corrected, or until you are sure the adapter is not malfunctioning.

No customer repairs are possible to the adapter. If you experience trouble with the
adapter, contact your Authorized Reseller.

This adapter may not be used on coin service provided by the telephone company. Con­nection to party lines is subject to state tariffs. Contact your state public utility commis­sion or corporation commission for information.
