Caution - Before operating this device, be sure to place the antenna in

the vertical position. This offers the best performance of your modem, and, at the same time, reduces the risk of possible exposure to electromagnetic radiation emanating from the antenna

The antenna must be maintained at least 4 inches (or 10 cm) from users and nearby persons to comply with FCC radio frequency exposure limits (and to reduce the risk of RF radiation) when the Uniden Data 2000 is in operation.

1.0 Getting Ready

Uniden Data 2000 Wireless CDPD PC Card

1.1 What is the Uniden Data 2000?

The Uniden Data 2000 is a wireless CDPD (Cellular Digital Packet Data) PC Card which enables most laptops, hand held computers, and Personal Digital Assistants with Type II PC Card slots to communicate with host-based applications such as web servers, intranet servers, databases, dispatch systems, and other host computer systems. The Uniden Data 2000 uses the Internet suite of protocols running over the CDPD system. The product is fully Windows compatible, supporting Windows 95/98, Windows NT, and Windows CE. It includes a suite of GUI (Graphical User Interface) utilities to provide the user with simplified access to operational status and statistics, as well as the ability to configure, control, and monitor the performance of the device. The Uniden Data 2000’s compact size makes it an easily portable communications tool that can be stored conveniently in a briefcase or purse when not in use.

1.2 What is CDPD?

CDPD or Cellular Digital Packet Data is a wireless, public access, packet data standard designed to operate over existing analog cellular phone systems. Since it is designed to use existing cellular phone systems, CDPD provides a large coverage area. CDPD’s primary benefit is quick, inexpensive, and efficient transmission of data packets. Additional benefits include built-in encryption for security (where applicable); a billing structure which charges for message size rather than on-line time (depending on individual service provider’s service plans); forward error correction methods that reduce the effects of noise and interference on the airlink; and widespread deployment.

1.3 What is the PCMCIA Standard for PC Car ds?

Over the past several years, mobile computers have experienced explosive growth. While prices have fallen sharply, features are becoming more advanced and reliability has been greatly improved. One of the most notable features of today’s mobile computers is the PC Card slot. Over the last four years, the personal computer industry has rapidly adopted the PC Card slot feature, and today nearly 75 percent of laptops include a PC Card slot. This has been the driving force in the innovation and development of PC Card technology.

1-2

In 1989, an international standards body and trade association was founded, called the PCMCIA (Personal Computer Memory Card International Association.). This organization was founded to establish standards for Integrated Circuit cards and to promote interchangeability among mobile computers where ruggedness, low power, and small size are critical.

Even though PCMCIA is a rather young technology, it has been quickly adopted by every major personal computer manufacturer in the world. Since it’s inception, PCMCIA has published a PC Card Standard which contains all of the physical, electrical and software specifications for PC Card technology. This standard is in a constant state of improvement by the PCMCIA technical committee.

1.7 Battery Life Expectations

The Uniden Data 2000 is powered by 4 AAA size alkaline batteries that, depending upon your application, should provide you with several days of use. Here is a matrix below that will give you an idea of the expected battery life in relation to the modem’s anticipated use:

Data Usage: High Medium Light

User: Information Business User Casual User

Technology User

Application: File Transfer Web Browsing Occasional

e-mail

Battery Life: 4-5 hours 16-20 hours 60-80 hours

The above matrix is only an estimate. Your actual battery life will vary based on your use of the modem and other parameters. Whenever you are in a more stationary situation, Uniden recommends that you use the AC power adapter (wall unit) that comes with your U

niden

Data 2000.

To ensure maximum battery life, Uniden recommends that you turn the modem power switch off when not in use.
