• The Answer Status Icons —
You can program
the NavTalk Pilot to display the answering status of the
phone. When set to ‘Auto-Answer’ the phone will
automatically answer. When set to ‘Pager’ it will allow
callers to enter their phone number for returning their
call. When the ‘Auto-Data’ feature is active the Auto-Data
icon will appear when automatic position reporting is
taking place.
• The Roaming Status —
(H means Home, A or B
means roaming A or B, and P means roaming on a
preferred SID).
The term “roaming” applies to the use of your
NavTalk Pilot within ground based cellular systems other
than those designated as your “home” system. As your
NavTalk Pilot begins to roam, it seeks service according to the
conditions you have selected. Contact your system operator,
or that of the visited system, for information on billing and
dialing services. When operating in the air cellular mode
roaming does not apply, as the air cellular system is
universal in coverage. You will switch from cell to cell as
you travel but it will not be acknowledged by the NavTalk
Pilot.
When the phone is not communicating with the
cellular system, either because the system is down or the
phone is out of range, the words “No Service” are
displayed on the top line in place of the indicators
described above. “Cellular Off” means the phone is off,
but allows access to all cellular pages. You cannot send or
receive calls with the exception of using Emergency
Calling (refer to page 57.)
When the phone is not operating properly the words
“Service Unit” are displayed on the top line and the phone
cannot be used for calls.
The bottom line provides some general purpose
information in addition to the current GPS status. Three
indicators are displayed:
Auto-Pager Icon
Auto-Answer Icon
Cell Phone Roaming
Status Icon
Auto-Data Icon for
Position Polling
