    Setting up for SMS
    To use SMS messaging on your Revo, check the
    following:
    1.Check that your phone is set up to send and
    receive SMS messages. To find out how to do
    this, see your phone’s manual, or contact your
    dealer or network operator.
    2.Ensure the Infrared (or IR) port is active on your
    phone. Your phone’s manual will tell you how to
    do this.
    3.Align the Infrared ports of your phone and your
    Revo so that they are facing each other (ideally,
    place them on the same flat surface). Make sure
    that your phone and Revo are no more than
    one metre (3ft) apart.
    To check the SMS settings on your mobile phone:
    1.Select Account settings on the Tools menu,
    then select SMS.
    2.On the Details page, select the type of phone
    you use in the Mobile phone line.3.Move to the Advanced page, ensure your Revo

    ·If the Service centre address line is blank, enter
    the SMS service centre phone number for your
    network operator. To find out the number, read
    the service centre number from your phone
    (your phone manual will tell you how to do this),
    or contact your network operator.

    Starting a phonebook
    You can start a new phonebook by connecting to
    your phone and retrieving the names and numbers in
    its memory, or by creating a new phonebook.
    Copying numbers from your phone
    If you already keep names and phone numbers on
    your phone, connect to your phone and copy them
    into a new phonebook on your Revo.
    To connect to your phone and retrieve its
    phonebook:
    1.Ensure that your mobile phone is ready to
    communicate to your Revo using its Infrared (or
    ‘IR’) port (your phone’s manual will tell you how
    to do this). Align the Infrared windows on your
    Revo and phone, making sure that they are no
    more than 1 metre (3ft) apart.
    2.Tap the Connect button on the Toolbar, or
    select Connect to phone from the Tools menu.
    Use Phone to organise the list of names and phone
    numbers stored in your mobile phone (called a
    “phonebook”). You can edit phonebooks on your
    Revo, and integrate entries with your Contacts
    address book to keep them up to date. You can copy
    phonebooks to and from your phone using Infrared
    (or ‘IR’).
    Phone memory & SIM cards
    Phonebooks can be stored on either your phone’s
    SIM card, or the memory in the phone handset. If you
    store a phonebook on your SIM card, you can access
    it on another phone by inserting the SIM card into the
    phone. If you store a phonebook in your phone’s
    memory, you can only access it from your phone.What is a ‘SIM card’?
    You will have obtained a SIM (Subscriber Identity
    Module) card when you bought your phone, or
    subscribed to your network operator. Your SIM contains
    information such as your phone number and PIN, and
    can also be used as a memory to store phonebooks and
    SMS messages.

    3.After your Revo connects to the phone, select
    the memory in your phone to be retrieved. For
    details about the different memory types in your
    phone, see ‘Phone memory & SIM cards’ earlier.
    4.Your Revo reads the phonebook from your
    mobile, and checks to see if it matches any
    phonebooks present in Phone, then:
    5.If this is the first time you’ve retrieved a
    phonebook, enter a name for it, then tap OK to
    save it in Phone.
    6.Otherwise, if you have previously retrieved (or
    created) a phonebook, Phone displays a dialog to
    specify what to do with the names and numbers:·To save the numbers in a new phonebook, tap
    New and enter its name.
    ·To overwrite an existing phonebook, tap Replace
    and select the phonebook name.
    ·To add the numbers to an existing phonebook,
    tap Merge and select the phonebook name. If a
    matching entry is present in both the phone and
    the phonebook, but the two entries have a
    different name or number, phone asks you to
    specify which entry to use. Once the
    phonebooks have been merged, confirm whether
    you want your mobile to be updated with the
    merged phonebook.
