Technical Manual  
 
HOW TO SET UP YOUR PHONE NUMBER  
Your SX4e has been designed for easy setup and installation. You can program the Phonecell SX4e  
with an ordinary tone-dial (DTMF) telephone, which is sometimes referred to as a POTS (Plain Old  
Telephone Service) phone. Note: This programming mode is not accessible while you're in a call.  
Before you begin programming, connect the antenna, plug in the power, and connect a tone-dial  
(DTMF) telephone.  
1) Pick up the POTS telephone handset and listen for a tone (either a steady dial tone or a beeping  
no-service tone).  
2) Press:  
# * 0 * 1 2 3 4 4 3 2 1 #  
The tone will change to a different, steady "Programming" tone and the bottom LED indicator on  
the Phonecell will blink alternately RED and GREEN to indicate that you're in programming  
mode. You now have two minutes to start the programming steps.  
3) Press:  
# * 1 * <MIN> #  
This key sequence is used to enter your 10-digit telephone number (Mobile Identification  
Number, or MIN). If you enter the number incorrectly, you'll hear 3 short tones followed by the  
programming tone. If correct, you'll hear the programming tone again. If the MIN phone number  
value is not 10 digits, it is considered invalid and the FWT will not update or store this value; the  
currently stored value will remain.  
4) Press:  
# * 5 * <SID> #  
This key sequence is used to enter the 1- to 5-digit System Identifier, or SID. This information  
identifies your cellular service company. If you enter the SID incorrectly, you'll hear three short  
tones followed by the programming tone; if correct, you'll hear the programming tone again. If  
the SID value is not in the range of 0 to 32,767, it is considered invalid. The factory default is 69.  
5) Press:  
# * 4 * <paging channel> #  
This key sequence is used to set up your 1- to 4-digit initial paging channel. When you turn on  
your Phonecell, this channel helps the service provider find you-and vice-versa. If the paging  
channel is not in the range of 1 to 1023, it is considered invalid. Channels 800 to 990 are invalid.  
The factory default channel setting is 333.  
6) Press:  
# * 7 * <band order> #  
This key sequence is used to enter the band order. The band order value is a series of digits  
between 1 and 2 (1 and 8 for Tri-Mode model) that must be at least 1 digit and not more than 2  
digits (8 digits for Tri-Mode model) long. The following table describes the relationship between  
the band order digits and EIA/TIA-136 system/band assignment:

How to Place a Call  
1) Pick up your telephone handset (your phone is now “off-hook”).  
2) Listen for dial tone (If service is not available, a No-Service tone is produced. Hang up the phone  
and try again. If the No-Service tone continues, contact your service provider to make sure cellu-  
lar service is activated.).  
3) Dial the phone number.  
How to Receive a Call  
When your telephone rings, pick up the handset and begin talking.  
How to End a Call  
Hang-up the phone (place the handset back onto the telephone cradle).  
The Hookflash Function  
When you initiate the Hookflash function, it automatically lets you:  
• Speed up the connection after you dial a phone number.  
• Answer an incoming call that occurs when you’re dialing a phone number.  
• Use special (supplementary) cellular services which may be available in your cellular service area.  
How to Use the Hookflash Function  
Depending upon your phone, there are two ways to initiate the Hookflash function:  
• Press the dedicated “HOOKFLASH” or “FLASH” key on your telephone.  
• Press the hang-up or switch-hook mechanism on your phone once quickly (approximately  
1/2-second).

Technical Manual  
 
Important Tones and Alerts  
No-Service Tone – When cellular service is not available, the receiver emits a No-Service (fast-  
beeping) tone instead of the normal (steady) dial tone.  
ROH (Receiver Off-Hook) Tone – If the telephone equipment remains off-hook (off its cradle) with  
no dialing activity for 30 seconds, the receiver emits an ROH tone for 45 seconds.  
Incoming Call Alert – If you’re dialing a number and an incoming call occurs, the receiver will emit  
an audible ring. To answer the incoming call:  
• Press the “HOOKFLASH” button once. This will connect the incoming call.  
• OR hang-up immediately. This will cause the phone to start ringing.  
Roam Dial Tone – When cellular service is available, but the SX4e is in a Roam area, the receiver  
may emit a different dial tone to indicate the roaming condition. However, unless the FWT is repro-  
grammed in the field, the factory default tone is set the same as normal service dial tone.  
How to Adjust the Volume Level  
If the volume level on your phone is too high or too low, you can adjust the levels using the keypad  
on your telephone.  
Note: your telephone must be in Tone-Dial (DTMF) mode to adjust the levels.  
To Increase Audio Level - Increase the audio level in steps by pressing:  
Press:  
#
8 (also known as # * Up)  
*
Continue to press #  
8 until the desired level is reached.  
*
To Decrease Audio Level - Decrease the audio level in steps by pressing:  
Press:  
#
3 (also known as # * Down)  
*
Continue to press #  
3 until the desired level is reached..  
*
NOTE: The default setting lets you adjust the audio up to three (3) steps from the default volume in  
either direction (Up or Down). The volume setting remains in effect for future calls until changed  
manually, even if the telephone is on-hook. If the SX4e power is cycled (turned OFF/ON), the  
default mid-range volume setting will be restored.  
Variable Dial Time (Auto SEND Delay) Option  
When you place a call, your Phonecell SX4e automatically sends the phone number over the cellu-  
lar network after you dial the last digit. However, to make sure you have enough time to dial the last  
digit, a 3-second Auto SEND Delay is programmed into the unit at the factory. To change the Auto  
SEND Delay setting, see the User Programming Commands section of this manual.  
In-Call DTMF Signaling Option  
Depending upon your cellular provider, the Data After SEND option may need to be Enabled or  
Disabled to use special cellular features such as call waiting, three-way conference calls, voice  
mail, etc. Please consult your service provider for the required In-Call DTMF Signaling configura-  
tion.  
The factory default setting is 0 (In-Band Signaling only). To change the Data After Send setting, see  
the How To Set the Auto SEND Delay in the Phonecell SX4e Programming section of this manual.  
SUPPLEMENTARY SERVICES (NETWORK DEPENDENT)  
Call Waiting  
Call Waiting enables you to be alerted to an incoming call while you are already on a call. You have  
the option of responding to the second call while putting the first call on hold. You can also disable  
the call waiting option during a particular call. Contact your service provider to activate Call Waiting.  
Three-Way Calling  
Three-Way Calling enables you to set up a three-way conversation with two other different  
numbered users. Contact your service provider to activate Three-Way Calling.  
Call Forwarding  
Call Forwarding enables you to forward all your incoming calls to another phone number, even if  
your telephone is turned off. You can continue to make calls from your telephone when Call  
Forwarding is activated. Contact your service provider to activate Call Forwarding.

Technical Manual  
 
Caller ID  
The Phonecell SX4e sends information to an external Caller ID device to allow presentation of the  
calling party's telephone number, if this service is available from the network. Caller ID boxes in  
compliance with ETSI 300 659 or Bellcore GR-30-CORE standards are supported. Only type 1 (on-  
hook) presentation is supported. Because there is no source of date and time available to the FWT,  
the displayed date and time will be arbitrary.  
Three Caller ID message formats are available to satisfy the requirements of currently available  
Caller ID devices:  
• Multiple Data Message Format (MDMF) with blank date and time fields (this selection will work for  
most currently available caller ID devices).  
• Multiple Data Message Format (MDMF) with date and time information fixed at midnight, January 1.  
• Single Data Message Format (SDMF) with date and time information fixed at midnight, January 1  
Contact your service provider to activate Caller ID.  
FAX AND DATA TRANSMISSION  
Fax and Data Applications  
When considering using a device other than a telephone in conjunction with the Phonecell SX4e  
(such as a modem), consider if that device would plug directly into the Fax jack on the premise and  
work with a normal telephone line. If the answer is 'yes', you can use that device with the Phonecell  
SX4e; if the answer is 'no', that device will most likely not work in this application.  
Multi-extension installations - For a multi-extension installation, make sure that all the extensions are  
on-hook. If one extension is off-hook (not hung up), none of the extensions on that line will ring  
when a call is being received.  
Facsimile Machines  
A facsimile machine needs to be connected exactly as it needs to be configured for use on a regular  
wired telephone company line. Some models of portable facsimile machines require an external  
telephone for normal operation. These models still need this external telephone when hooked up to  
the Phonecell SX4e. A splitter may be required.  
Fax and Data Transmission Overview  
The Phonecell SX4e operates on TDMA 800 MHz and PCS 1900 MHz digital networks and on  
AMPS 800 MHz analog networks. Because most TDMA and PCS networks do not support digital fax  
and data services, AMPS 800 MHz networks and AMPS 800 MHz channels on TDMA 800 MHz net-  
works can be used for fax and data services. Contact your local cellular dealer or service provider to  
determine the availability of an AMPS analog network.  
To make a fax or data-modem call, a special dial sequence to request an analog channel MUST be  
entered just before the call is made. Do not use this dial sequence for a voice call.  
If the request is successful, the normal fax or data rate negotiations will commence and the call will  
continue. The analog channel assignment lasts for the duration of the call.  
NOTE: There is no guarantee that the analog channel request will be granted (there may be no  
analog channel available). The fax or data call will fail if an analog channel is not assigned. Contact  
your local cellular dealer or service provider to determine the availability of an analog channel.The  
SX4e automatically adjusts the transmit and receive audio levels for optimum data transmission  
when a fax or modem is detected. After the completion of the call, the audio levels are returned to  
the user's previous settings (patent pending).  
The SX4e is compatible with all group 3 facsimile machines and computer modems. Normally, data  
transmission rates of up to 9600 baud are possible dependent upon the type of modem used and  
your cellular service provider's capability.  
The SX4e’s Status LED will indicate when an analog call has been initiated - see the How to Use  
the LED Status Indicators section of this manual.

Originating Fax and Data Calls  
Sending a Fax Message  
1) Set up your fax machine just as you  
would for a wired telephone line.  
2) If your fax machine has a 'prefix'  
setting, set it to # * 2. If your pro-  
gram does not have such a setting,  
add # * 2 to the phone number as  
shown in the example below:  
Telephone Cord  
Phone Port  
Example: If you are sending to  
1-800-123-4567, enter  
Fax Machine  
#*218001234567. The '# * 2' tells  
the SX4e to use the analog mode for  
this call only.  
Figure 11 - Connecting a fax machine to the SX4e.  
3) Your fax should then proceed normally.  
NOTE: If the network does not have  
analog channels available, the call will  
be unsuccessful. Try the call at a later  
time.  
Sending Data  
1) Connect your computer modem to  
the Phonecell SX4e exactly the  
same way you would to wired tele-  
phone service.  
Telephone Cord  
2) If your modem communications  
program has a 'prefix' setting, set it  
to # * 2. If your fax machine does  
not have such a setting, add # * 2  
to the phone number as shown in  
the example below:  
Phone Port  
Computer  
Figure 12 - Connecting a computer to the SX4e.  
Example:If you are sending to 1-800-123-4567, enter #*218001234567. The '# 2' tells the  
*
Phonecell to use the analog mode for this call only.  
3) Your data transmission should then proceed normally.  
NOTE: If the network does not have analog channels available, the call will be unsuccessful. Try the  
call at a later time.  
NOTE: As a result of using this dial string prefix, the SX4e will be placed in the analog mode and an  
analog channel will be requested before the call is dialed. If the request is successful, the data rate  
negotiations will commence and the call will continue. The "FWT Status" LED will indicate an analog  
call by flashing green.  
Receiving Fax and Data Calls  
When your fax machine or modem answers a call, the Phonecell will decode the answer tone from  
the local device. This will cause the Phonecell to go to analog mode, regardless of which mode is  
currently set, to receive the data or fax. The "FWT Status" LED will indicate an analog call by flash-  
ing green. You do not need to do anything to allow your unit to receive fax or data calls. However,  
the facsimile machine and/or computer data modem must be connected to the Phonecell SX. (See:  
Step by Step Fax Instructions). If the call is not completed successfully, the remote caller should  
retry the call immediately The Phonecell SX4e will remain in analog mode for a short time after call  
failure waiting for retry.  
Refresh FWT to Digital Mode  
When the analog fax/data call ends, the "FWT Status" LED will return to continuous green indicating  
the FWT has returned to its normal operating digital mode.

PHONECELL SX4e TROUBLESHOOTING  
Telephone Service is Not Working  
If the telephone service is not working, first check the operation of the telephone equipment and  
wiring connected to your Phonecell. Test the equipment on a different service or piece of equipment  
to ensure proper operation, or connect a known good telephone device to the Phone port on the  
Phonecell unit. This will verify the condition of the telephone equipment and the internal wiring of the  
telephone service to ensure that it’s working properly. If the telephone system or wiring is not work-  
ing properly, replace or repair the equipment as required. Otherwise, contact your cellular provider  
or your authorized Telular distributor.  
Unable to Receive Incoming Calls  
If more than one telephone or telephone device is connected to your Phonecell, make sure that all  
devices are “on-hook” (hung up). If one extension is “off-hook” (off its cradle), none of the exten-  
sions on your phone line will ring when an incoming call occurs.  
Unable to Send and Receive Fax or Data Calls  
Because most TDMA and PCS networks do not support digital fax and data services, AMPS 800 MHz  
networks and AMPS 800 MHz channels on TDMA 800 MHz networks can be used for fax and data  
services. There is no guarantee that the analog channel request will be granted (there may be no  
analog channel available). The fax or data call will fail if an analog channel is not assigned. Contact  
your local cellular dealer or service provider to determine the availability of an analog channel.  
Moisture or Ventilation Problems  
Visually inspect your Phonecell unit’s enclosure. Moisture can damage the equipment. Ventilation is  
also very important. If there are moisture or ventilation problems, move your Phonecell to correct as  
necessary, see the Temperature Environment section of this manual.  
No Power  
The top LED lamp on the front of your Phonecell SX4e indicates the unit’s power condition. If the  
LED is ORANGE or GREEN, your Phonecell is receiving power. If the power cord is connected and  
the LED lamp is not lit, the Phonecell is not receiving power. Verify that the AC power source and its  
corresponding circuit breaker are functioning properly.  
Battery Backup Failure  
If you’re using the optional Battery Backup Unit, the unit must be connected to AC power for at least  
24 hours to fully charge the batteries before they’ll provide back-up power to your Phonecell. Verify  
that the batteries have been charged for at least 24 hours and that the power source and its corre-  
sponding circuit breaker are functioning properly. Then, examine the batteries for physical damage  
and corrosion. Replace the batteries if necessary.

IMPORTANT!  
To ensure safe and efficient operation, please read the following information and observe these guidelines whenever using your  
Phonecell SX4e.  
WARNING!  
Only Authorized Service Personnel should remove the cover of your Phonecell. For further assis-  
tance, contact your Authorized Telular Representative. Please have the model and serial number  
ready (model and serial numbers are located on the label on the bottom of the unit).  
!
Your Phonecell SX4e FWT (Fixed Wireless Terminal) functions as both a radio transmitter and receiver.  
When it is ON, the FWT receives and sends out radio frequency (RF) energy. The Phonecell SX4e 800  
operates in the frequency ranges of between 824 MHz and 894 MHz. The Phonecell SX4e Tri-Mode  
operates in the frequency ranges of between 824 MHz and 894 MHz (Digital TDMA and analog AMPS)  
and between 1850 MHz and 1990 MHz (Digital PCS). It employs commonly used phase/frequency modu-  
lation techniques. When you use your Phonecell SX4e, the cellular system handling your call controls the  
power level at which your unit transmits.  
Exposure to RF (Radio Frequency) Energy  
In 1991, the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), and in 1992, the American National  
Standards Institute (ANSI), updated the 1982 ANSI Standard for safety levels with respect to human expo-  
sure to RF energy. After reviewing the available body of research, more than 120 scientists, engineers and  
physicians from universities, government health agencies and industry developed this updated Standard.  
In March, 1993, the U.S. Federal Communications Commission (FCC) proposed the adoption of this  
updated Standard.  
The design of your Telular Phonecell SX4e complies with this updated Standard. Of course, if you want to  
limit RF exposure even further than the updated ANSI Standard, you may choose to control the duration of  
your calls and operate your phone in the most power-efficient manner.  
Safe Operation Requirement  
Do not operate your Phonecell SX4e when any person is within 203 mm (8 inches) of the antenna.  
Antenna Care and Replacement  
Do not use the Phonecell SX4e with a damaged antenna. If a damaged antenna comes into contact with  
the skin, a minor burn may result. Have your antenna replaced by a qualified technician immediately. Use  
only a manufacturer-approved antenna. Unauthorized antennas, modifications, or attachments could dam-  
age the Phonecell SX4e.  
Driving  
Check the laws and regulations on the use of cellular products in the areas where you drive. Some juris-  
dictions prohibit your using a cellular device while driving a vehicle. Even if your jurisdiction does not have  
such a law, we strongly suggest that, for safety reasons, the driver use extreme caution when operating  
the cellular device while the vehicle is in motion. Always obey the law.  
Exposure to Electronic Devices  
Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from RF energy. However, RF energy from cellular devices  
may affect inadequately shielded electronic equipment.  
RF energy may affect improperly installed or inadequately shielded electronic operating and entertainment  
systems in motor vehicles. Check with the manufacturer or its representative to determine if these systems  
are adequately shielded from external RF energy. You should also check with the manufacturer of any  
equipment that has been added to your vehicle.  
Consult the manufacturer of any personal medical devices (such as pacemakers, hearing aids, etc.) to  
determine if they are adequately shielded from external RF energy.  
Turn your Phonecell SX4e OFF in health care facilities when any regulations posted in the areas instruct  
you to do so. Hospitals or health care facilities may be using equipment that could be sensitive to external  
RF energy.

Aircraft  
Turn OFF your Phonecell SX4e before boarding any aircraft.  
• Use it on the ground only with crew permission.  
• Do not use it in the air.  
To prevent possible interference with aircraft systems, U.S. Federal Aviation Administration (FAA)  
regulations require you to have permission from a crew member to use your cellular phone (or any  
other cellular product) while the plane is on the ground. To prevent interference with aircraft sys-  
tems, FCC regulations prohibit using your cellular device while the plane is in the air.  
Children  
Do not allow children to play with your Phonecell SX4e to prevent damage to the unit.  
Blasting Areas  
Construction crews often use remote control RF devices to set off explosives. Therefore, to avoid  
interfering with blasting operations, turn your Phonecell SX4e OFF when in a "blasting area" or in  
areas posted: "Turn off two-way radio."  
Potentially Explosive Atmospheres  
Turn your Phonecell OFF when in any area with a potentially explosive atmosphere. It is rare, but  
your Phonecell or its accessories could generate sparks. Sparks in such areas could cause an  
explosion or fire resulting in bodily injury or even death.  
Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are often, but not always, clearly marked. They  
include fueling areas such as gas stations; below deck on boats; fuel or chemical transfer or storage  
facilities; areas where the air contains chemicals or particles, such as grain, dust, or metal powders;  
and any other area where you would normally be advised to turn off your vehicle engine.  
Do not transport or store flammable gas, liquid or explosives in the area of your Phonecell or acces-  
sories.  
Vehicles using liquefied petroleum gas (such as propane or butane) must comply with the National  
Fire Protection Standard (FPA-58). For a copy of this standard, contact the National Fire Protection  
Association, One Batterymarch Park, Quincy, MA 02269, Attn: Publications Sales Division.  
FCC Part 15 Class B Compliance  
This Phonecell® SX4 model has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital  
device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC rules. Changes or modifications not expressly approved by  
Telular Corporation will void your authority to operate the equipment per FCC part 15 paragraph  
15.21.These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a  
residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and,  
if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio
