RECEIVING AND READING MESSAGES
Your BRAVO LX pager can receive up to sixteen 20-
character messages. When a message is received,
the pager alerts for eight seconds.
❶ Press any button to stop the alert.
❷ Press W to display the message.
❸ Press V twice while reading your message to
return to the standby screen.
Messages longer than 12 characters display on a
second screen, indicated by the
B symbol. Press W
to display the second screen. The second screen is
displayed automatically after one minute, even if
W is
n o t p r e s s e d .
The last screen of your message displays the mes-
sage slot number and the time received.
If a message is not read, the pager gives a reminder
alert every two minutes and the screen displays the
number of unread messages (i.e., 1 Page, 2 Pages)
until all messages are read.
If the pager receives more messages than its avail-
able memory can hold, the new message replaces
the oldest read, unlocked message.
An overflow condition occurs when all message slots
are filled with unread messages and a new message
is received. Upon receipt of a message, while the
pager is in the overflow condition, the oldest unread
message is discarded. In this mode, the overflow in-
d i c a t o r r e p l a c e s t h e d e fa u l t i d l e d i s p l a y
with
overflow . Messages must be read and erased
to clear the overflow display.
