9501 Pager User's Guide Your pager will incorrectly indicate missed messages when it receives a retransmitted message if your newest message has a sequence number that is 8, or more, numbers greater than the original sequence number of the retransmitted message. For example, if your newest message is sequence number 16 and you receive a retransmitted message with a sequence number of 4, your pager will indicate missed messages.

You are among a select group of discerning users who demand global connectivity that is available only with the latest in communication technology. The 9501 pager integrates advanced messaging features you've come to expect from Motorola into the world's first global personal message receiver. In your world, timely information can be too important to wait. With a Motorola Satellite Series 9501 pager, you never have to be out of touch. About This User's Guide This User's Guide provides an explanation of how to operate each function of your pager and provides helpful suggestions for first-time (as well as for experienced) pager users. For your convenience, a quick reference card may be detached from the back cover and carried in your wallet. Please carefully review the User's Guide to understand how new features, specifically designed for reception of direct satellite signals, can help you to effectively benefit from this unique device. Introduction 1 Satellite Messaging Overview Exciting Satellite Receiver Technology INTRODUCTION The Iridium satellite system is a revolution in wireless communication technology. Satellites that circle the earth keep you in constant communication. Together with Iridium WorldPageSM service, Motorola's 9501 pager offers the first true global roaming capability in a small belt-worn personal message receiver. While it offers the best in paging features, the 9501 does not operate like a typical pager. Receiving Satellite Signals Most pagers receive messages transmitted from towers on the ground. The 9501 pager receives messages transmitted directly from satellite. This can be more difficult, in some instances, due to the distance the signal must travel from space. With most satellite-based communication, such as satellite TV or the Global Positioning System (GPS), a satellite dish or hand-held unit must be positioned outside of buildings to receive information. However, with Motorola's Satellite Series 9501 Pager, you can now receive messages inside buildings. Note: In some environments, the message signal may be effectively blocked, preventing reception. The ability to receive messages in the interior of large urban buildings will be particularly limited. 2 Satellite Messaging Overview Satellite Messaging Overview 3 9 5 0 1 P a g e r -- Yo u r Pe r s o n a l S a t e l l i t e R e c e i v e r SATELLITE RECEPTION 4 Satellite Messaging Overview POOR GOOD Satellite Paging Signal Reception Wearing Your Pager Your 9501 pager comes with a multi-functional holster that orients the pager for the best possible performance. It is recommended that you place the pager in the holster (display side facing in) and wear it on your belt. The holster can also be used effectively off the body as a stand for your pager. To ensure optimum reception, extend the belt clip, stand it up on a desk or table, and point it toward the nearest window. Note: Improper positioning of the 9501 pager will impair message reception. Proper Orientation of Pager in Holster Extended Belt Clip (For standing on table or desk) Message Delivery Areas (MDAs) Because your pager is a receive-only device and cannot tell the Iridium system its location, you must choose one or more message delivery areas to register for coverage. Message delivery areas (MDAs) are Iridium-defined geographic areas representing local, regional, and national boundaries designated by telephone Country Codes (with optional suffix). For your convenience, a complete list of Country Codes is permanently Satellite Messaging Overview 5 stored in the PhoneBook of your 9501 pager. Consult with your Iridium Service Provider for various methods of MDA registration. Motorola Satellite Series Products Using this pager together with Motorola's Satellite Series 9500 Portable Phone eliminates the need to register message delivery areas and provides additional benefits, such as "follow me" paging services and the convenience of a global portable phone. Ask your local authorized Motorola satellite products dealer about the complete line of Motorola Satellite Series products to determine which ones best meet your demanding communication needs. OPTIMAXTM EL Display To bring you superior clarity and easy readability, the Motorola OPTIMAX hologram is included in your pager's display. The hologram provides exceptional contrast between the background of the display and the pager's message. In addition, the 9501 pager uses an electro-luminescent backlighting technology for improved readability in low-light environments. The backlight is automatically activated whenever a button is pressed. 6 OPTIMAXTM EL Display Control Buttons Escape Scroll/ Move Up Select Move Left Scroll/ Move Down Move Right Turning Your Pager On Note: If you are turning the pager on for the first time, a displays for up to 8 seconds while the pager loads information from its internal memory. a Loading Memory 1.

It is recommended that you place the pager in the holster (display side facing in) and wear it on your belt. The holster can also be used effectively off the body as a stand for your pager. To ensure optimum reception, extend the belt clip, stand it up on a desk or table, and point it toward the nearest window. Note: Improper positioning of the 9501 pager will impair message reception. Checking Satellite Strength Note: Availability of the satellite feature described herein may vary, depending on the region of the world that you are in and the type of service provided. It is possible that you may have difficulty receiving messages in the interior of large urban buildings. When you arrive in an unfamiliar office, hotel room, or meeting room, you may want to check the pager's ability to receive messages in that location.To determine the likelihood of receiving messages in a given environment, perform the following steps: 1.Position the pager correctly. 2.Press and hold [for 2 seconds. The LED blinks yellow while the pager is looking for the nearest satellite. 3.It can take up to 26 seconds to locate the nearest satellite. Upon completion your pager alerts with a single chirp. The LED will be either green (in range), or red (out of range). If you press any button during the test, the test will be cancelled. 4.When complete, remove the pager from the holster to view the display. 5.If your signal strength indicator shows you are out-of-range (antenna with no strength bars), or weak (antenna with 1 or 2 strength bars), move to an outer part of the building or room with a window, where you may obtain better reception results.
