Wireless Manager SMS Messages Screen

71

Each time the SMS Messages screen receives a new SMS message from the SIM, it checks the status
of the SIM Inbox. If the SIM Inbox is full, a SIM Full icon is displayed in the left pane of the screen.
See SIM Inbox is Full: on page 73.

Note:

For all the SMS Messages, screen menu options to operate the GC89 must be registered
successfully on a network. You must have a GSM signal to Send SMS; the button is disabled
(grey) if you don’t have a signal.

Class 0 messages

If you receive a Class 0 message, it will appear in a pop-up dialog, which you can save or dismiss.
If you choose to save the message it will be stored in you Saved Messages folder.
