Data communication

The data communication modes available from the

FOMA terminal and hints on use are explained.

･

The FOMA terminal does not support fax

communication or the Remote Wakeup.

･

Data communication can be executed by connecting

the FOMA terminal to DoCoMo’s PDA, “musea”,

“sigmarion

Ⅱ

” or “sigmarion

Ⅲ

”. To use “musea” or

“sigmarion

Ⅱ

”, update is reguired. For details on

update, etc., visit the DoCoMo website.

･

For packet communication overseas, execute by IP

connection (packet connection is unavailable by PPP

connection).

･

64K data communication is unavailable overseas.

Supported data communication via the FOMA terminal

FOMA terminal supports 3 communication modes:

packet communication, 64K data communication and

data transfer.

■

Packet communication

Packet communication charges are based on the
amount of data sent and received, which make it
suitable for high-speed exchange of relatively small
amounts of data such as sending and receiving mail.
No communication charges are required when no data
are exchanged even if you are connected to the
network. Therefore, sending/receiving data as needed
while remaining connected to the network is possible.
High-speed packet communication provides a
maximum reception speed of 3.6Mbps and a
maximum transmission speed of 384kbps by using
access points that support packet communication on
FOMA, such as DoCoMo’s “mopera U” Internet
connection service. These are offered by the best-
effort connection which allows transmission speed to
vary with the environment and the rate of congestion.
Note that communications of large-size data such as
for viewing and downloading websites containing
images will require high charges.

･

When connecting to access points which do not
support HIGH-SPEED such as mopera or in case of
the outside of the FOMA HIGH-SPEED area or in case
of using equipments which are not compatible with
HIGH-SPEED such as DoCoMo’s PDA “musea”
“sigmarion

Ⅱ

” or “sigmarion

Ⅲ

”, the maximum

communication rate is 384kbps for both sending and
receiving.

■

64K data communication

The 64K data communication charges are based on
the duration of the connection to the network
regardless of the volume of data, which make it
suitable for sending and receiving relatively large
amounts of data as in downloading multi-media
contents. You need to use access points that
support FOMA 64K data communication such as

DoCoMo’s “mopera U/ mopera” Internet connection
service or ISDN synchronized 64kbps access points.
Note that communicating for long time will require
high charges.

■

Data transfer

It is the mode of non-charged communication in
which various data including the phonebook, mails
and bookmarks are transferred/exchanged.

･

Data can be transferred to another FOMA
terminal, mobile phone or PC via the infrared
communication/iC communication as well.

Before usage

Checking operating environment

For data communication, the operating environment of

PC is as follows:

*1 USB port (conform to USB specification 1.1/2.0) is required.

*2 The operation from OS upgrading is not covered by the

warranty.

･

For the

FOMA D905i CD-ROM

screen, the

recommended operating environment is Microsoft

Internet Explorer 6.0 or later for Windows 2000 or

Windows XP and Microsoft Internet Explorer 7.0 or

later for Windows Vista.

INFORMATION

●

Note that utilization may not be possible in certain operating
environments. Furthermore, operation will not be
guaranteed in an environment other than that described
above or by upgrading the OS and DoCoMo assumes no
responsibility for operation under such conditions.

Required devices

The following hardware and software are required in

addition to the FOMA terminal and a PC:

･

FOMA USB Cable with Charge Function 01

(optional) or FOMA USB Cable (optional)

･

Attached CD-ROM “CD-ROM for FOMA D905i”

INFORMATION

●

A USB cable for PC cannot be used because the shape
of the connector does not fit. In this manual, FOMA USB
Cable with Charge Function 01 is used for explanation.

●

In case of using USB HUB, operation may not be
performed properly.
