of the screen. The following symbols are used:

transmission. Incoming voice calls go directly to voicemail; 
outgoing voice calls can be made, but the PCS Vision 
connection will terminate.
Your PCS Vision connection is dormant (no data is being sent  
or received). Though not currently active, when dormant the 
phone can restart an active connection quickly; voice calls can 
be made and received.
Your phone is not currently able to access PCS Vision service 
features.
If no indicator appears, your phone does not have a current  
PCS Vision connection. To launch a connection, see “Launching a 
PCS Vision Connection” on 
page 112.
Note:When enabled, the Net Guard appears only once per session. The Net Guard 
does not appear if the phone is merely re-connecting due to a time-out.
