Powering Up Radios and Radio Combinations

Requirements

To successfully power up a radio, both the hardware module and the software driver must be installed
on the terminal. If the module is present, the radio appears in the Radio Manager.

To power up a radio or radio combination, select the radio in the Radio Modes list and tap Apply. The radio drivers are powered
down and powered up in the proper sequence.

For example, if the radio powered up is Bluetooth Only and you try to switch to 802.11b Only, after Apply is tapped, the Radio
Manager powers down the Bluetooth radio first, then powers up the 802.11b radio. If an error occurs during this process, the
radio mode change is abandoned. The resulting radio state is the status of the radios at the time the error occurred.

Powering Down Radios

To power down all radios, select None and tap Apply.

Remember that when using a radio combination, certain radio drivers are automatically powered down if required.
