Introduction

Palm V™ Modem enables you to send and receive data at your

convenience. You don’t have to connect your Palm V™ connected

organizer directly to your computer or laptop to update your data.

With your modem and organizer you can:

■Synchronize your organizer and Palm™ Desktop organizer

software from remote locations with one touch.

■Take full advantage of Palm V organizer applications, such as

Mail, using Network HotSync and TCP/IP.

Also, there are many software applications available from third-party

vendors that enable you to use your organizer and modem to:

■Send and receive e-mail.

■Send faxes.

■Browse the Internet.

■Perform remote synchronizations with your Personal Information

Manager (PIM), such as Lotus Organizer, Symantic ACT, and

Setting Up And Using Your Palm V™

Modem

Before you use your Palm V™ Modem, you must:

■Install the batteries.

■Attach your modem to your organizer.

■Connect an analog phone or wireless phone cable to your modem.

■Configure your computer.

■Configure your organizer.

Installing the batteries

To use your modem, you must first

install two AAA alkaline batteries. The

batteries fit in the compartment behind

the battery door on the back of the

modem.

Note: A diagram in the interior of the

battery compartment shows the

orientation of the positive (+)

and negative (-) ends of the

batteries. When correctly

installed, the clips in the battery

compartment secure the

batteries in place.

Replacing batteries

Under normal conditions, the AAA batteries provide up to two and a

half hours of continuous use. When your modem has approximately

20 percent of battery life remaining, it will sound three short beeps,

which will repeat every 5 minutes until the batteries are drained.

Replace the batteries as soon as possible.

Page 6 Setting Up And Using Your Palm V™ Modem

Attaching Palm V Modem and cables

Your modem has a 10-pin connector that slides into the grooves of

your organizer connector. Make sure your organizer snaps into place

onto the modem latch in the center of the modem.

You can use either the standard RJ11 cable to connect to an analog

phone line, or a wireless phone cable (available separately) to connect

to your cell phone.

Note: It is important to use a standard analog phone line, such as

those used in homes. If you use your modem in an office or

hotel, make sure it is connected to a phone line with a data

port, a fax line, or a modem line. If you use the wrong type of

phone line, your modem emits five beeps. Disconnect the

cable and try a different line.
