G - 8 Omnii Hand-Held with Windows CE 6.0 User Manual
• One or more parameters in the database are incorrect or a new operator is not yet in the database. (The
database should be corrected for subsequent software releases.)
• An operator has assigned individual GPRS user names and passwords.
• A very large site has its own APN. Such connections always have to be configured manually.
• A customer has subscribed for a static IP address. By definition this must be configured manually.
• An operator may use a different APN for certain groups of customers. Since the automatic configuration
can configure only one APN per operator such connections have to be configured manually.
Profiles
In the following section, all the parameters that need to be configured for a connection (such as APN, user
name, password, DNS server addresses etc.) are referred to as a profile. Every profile is identified by an arbi-
trary, unique name. The profile named Default is special in that it is always present and can neither be edited
nor deleted. The Default profile uses parameters from a built-in database. The home network (the network that
issued the SIM) is used for the database look-up. While there can be many configured profiles, only one profile
can be active at any time.
If connection profiles are configured manually, the Enable automatic configuration check box should normally
be unchecked.
In one particular use case, manually configured profiles may be combined with automatic configuration. If
multiple SIM cards are used with the same device, each SIM card being from a different operator and some
or all of them requiring a manually set up profile, automatic configuration may be used to automatically pick
the correct manually configured profile for each SIM card. For this to work, each profile must be configured
while the corresponding SIM card is inserted in the device and initialized (i.e. the status is at least Searching
for network).
The Select profile: drop-down list in the data configuration profile selects to which profile a subsequent action
applies. A profile named Default is always present and contains the current parameters from the database. The
following actions are available:
Show
The parameters for the selected profile are displayed when you tap the stylus on this button. For the Default
profile, the publicly known password is shown — otherwise, the password is hidden.
Edit
The parameters of the selected profile can be edited when you choose the Edit button. Keep in mind that you
cannot edit the Default profile.
Delete
The selected profile is deleted. You cannot delete the Default profile.
Activate
When this button is chosen, the selected profile becomes the active profile. Activation is possible only if the
Enable automatic configuration: check box is unchecked.
New
Tapping on the New button allows you to create a new profile.
