If the insufficient power is not corrected by changing the power
source, the charger might be malfunctioning. Have the charger
checked by an authorized service technician.
I just inserted a fresh battery, but it only lasted 2
days. Why?
When your PageWriter 2000X Two-Way Wireless Communications
Center is set to two-way transmission but is not receiving Full
Service (i.e., you are out of range), the pager continues to attempt
to reestablish communication with the network. This acts as a
continuous drain on the battery. Whenever you leave a two-way
coverage zone, set the radio mode to One-way or Off to preserve
the battery.
I haven’t used my pager in two months. When I
place the unit in the charger, I get a flashing red
light. Do I need a new battery?
Your battery is hyper-drained and it needs to be reconditioned.
1. Place the battery in the docking station. The light will blink red.
2. Let the battery sit overnight.
3. If the light is still flashing red in the morning, remove the
battery and put it back into the charger.
4. Repeat procedure until the light goes green. If after three
attempts the battery doesn’t charge to green, the battery can-
not be reconditioned and must be replaced.
FLEX PC Partner
Why can’t I establish a connection between my
pager and my PC via the infrared interface?
Check the following before re-attempting to establish a connection:
• Make sure you have opened the FLEX PC Partner application
on your pager and selected to get the Connect Status
screen.
• Make sure your pager is placed properly in the docking station
and that the RS232 cable and transformer are properly con-
nected. For more information see “To connect the docking sta-
tion to your computer:” on page 18.
• Make sure the communications port on your PC is correctly
set. For more information, see “To configure FLEX PC Part-
ner:” on page 56.
