OPTIMIZING
YOUR MOTOROLA PF1500 PAGER
|
|
Congratulations on your purchase of Motorola's PF1500 pager. Your
pager includes at least four categories of DATACAST's®
Classic
information services.
CREATING FOLDERS
By default, all DATACAST® Classic
updates arrive together in your News/Info Inbox. This can make it
difficult to find the information you are looking for and may force
you to scroll past unwanted information to get to the updates you
wish to read.
To better enjoy DATACAST®
on your PF1500, you should create sub-folders under the News/Info
Inbox. Once you've done this, each topic of DATACAST®
will arrive in a separate sub-folder.
For example, DATACAST®
Sports
will be in its own sub-folder, separate from DATACAST®
News,
etc.
To create DATACAST®
News/Info
sub-folders, proceed as follows:
|
1. From the Main menu, use 
to highlight 
and press  .
|
2. Use
to highlight the information service message for which you want
to create an inbox, then press and hold .
|
3. Use
to highlight 
and press .
|
You have now successfully created a separate sub-folder for the category
of DATACAST®
message
you selected. Repeat steps 1-3 above for each DATACAST®
category. |
DECIDE
HOW MANY UPDATES TO STORE
(PF1500
"HISTORY")
|
NOTE:
Below settings are available on newer PF1500 pagers.
The History setting allows you to specify how many DATACAST®
updates in each category will be retained by your pager. If, for example,
you set your DATACAST®
"Sports" History to "2", then you will only have
three (the current update as well as the 2 prior) Sports Updates on
your pager at any give time. New incoming updates will replace/overwrite
the oldest update.
Tip:
You must first create the sub-folders (described above) before you
can take advantage of the History setting.
To select how many DATACAST®
Updates are stored, proceed as follows: |
1. From the Main menu, Use
to highlight
and then press .
|
2.
Use
to highlight the desired inbox, then press and hold .
|
3.
Use
to highlight  ,
then
press .
- The
selection is highlighted.
|
4. Use
to highlight the new selection and then press .
|
NOTE: The option selected determines how many messages
are retained in the corresponding inbox before they are replaced
by new messages; "No History" will keep only the
newest message.
|
The above instructions can also be found on pages 25-26 of the Motorola
booklet/user guide that came with your PF1500 pager.
