Commonly Asked Questions &
Answers
Q: How does Pager Access work?
A: It uses the CE-FM4 Fax/Modem or PC Card modem to
send out messages through paging services, and reads
messages from your Pager Card.
Q: Do I need to subscribe to the paging service which I
want to send messages to?
A: No. But you do need to know its TAP access phone number,
etc. in order to set it up in Pager Access and send a mes-
sage to a pager user. See "Setting up a paging service" on
page 159 for details.
Q: Can I send the same message to several recipients at
the same time?
A: Yes, but they must use the same paging service. See
"Selecting recipients of a message" on page 167 for
detailed steps.
If you need to send messages to groups on different
paging services, create a new message (use copy & paste
in the subject or message field) for each group of recipi-
ents on the same paging service.

Q: I have some data on my unit that I would like to send
to others. Can I do that?
A: Of course you can! Appointment or To Do data is ac-
cepted. When you compose a new message, use the
ATTACH button to attach data to the message. You can
attach only one entry to each message and the size of the
entry plus the message text must not exceed the message
limit set by the paging service.
Q: What is the maximum length of the message I can
send?
A: This varies from one paging service provider to another.
Check with the service provider for such details.
Q: Can I get my new pager messages whenever I start
Pager Access?
A: Yes. Touch SETUP and select "Preferences." Then make
sure the Get new messages at start up box is checked.
Q: What happens if during a message transmission
some messages could not be sent due to some
problems?
A: Those that were sent appear in the SENT folder while
those not sent remain in the OUT folder. Simply try
sending the failed messages again.
