4.6 WWAN CONNECTION
Datalogic FALCON™ GSM models enhance your connectivity solutions giving you an opening to an
international wireless infrastructure that is the global standard.
GSM (Global System for Mobile communications) is a digital mobile phone system based on TDMA;
it utilizes the 850, 900, 1800 and 1900 MHz bands.
In order to use a WWAN Connection you have to install a SIM Card
In order to avoid wasting energy, the GSM
module is off by default. If you need to have
GSM working, the module must be powered
NOTE
on using the Wireless Communications
applet (see par. Error! Reference source not
found.).
Suspending the terminal does not power off the
GSM radio and does not drop the connection.
Instead, changing the battery powers off the
NOTE
GSM radio and drops the connection.
When the terminal resumes, if the connection
was managed by Microsoft Internet Explorer,
it is automatically restored, otherwise, the
radio connection must be manually re-
initialized.
The GSM voice capability of this mobile
computer has to be addressed to occasional use,
in well covered areas.
NOTE
If the coverage is poor, the voice quality can be
highly affected.
Calls can be made or received using the Datalogic FALCON™ as
a phone handset, by the Datalogic FALCON™ headset or by a
Bluetooth® headset.
