FAQ - Oxygen Phone Manager for Nokia 7110/6210 ============================================== Q.1. How to merge Outlook data with the phonebook entries? A.1. You need to check "Add to existing data" option. In this case phonebook tree won't be cleared before import data from Outlook. You can also merge data from files. Q.2. Is there an easy way to move entries to a caller group? A.2. Definitely, yes. Just select all the entries you want to move by pressing Ctrl and left mouce button on them, then press right mouse button. In the popup menu select "Move to" item then choose the desired group.

Rules of mapping are described in the according help topics. To have items be placed into the groups you have to fill "Categories" field. If you leave the field blank contacts will be placed into "Assorted" group, and calendar items will be placed into "Reminder" group (calendar items will be also selected). Phonebook export to Outlook can be accomplished in two ways. If "Overwrite data during export to Outlook" is unchecked, only blank fields in Outlook contacts will be filled with phone numbers and text from the phonebook. If the option is checked, phone numbers and text will be overwritten by the according data from the phone. In both cases contacts which exist in the phonebook but are absent in Outlook database will be added. Q.4. How to choose default phone number for loading? A.4. At the same time you can work with several phone numbers in the program. To make program know what number to load to the phone memory as default one you need to double-click left mouse button on it. The number background becomes lime. Q.5. I have a huge number of entries. When I load them into the phone the deletion of old data goes on too long. A.5. This behaviour was fixed in version 1.6.3. Q.6. How can I connect my phone to the PC? A.6. You can do it in several ways. You can use DAU-9P cable (which was designed for 51** and 61** models) if you already have one. The standard cable for Nokia 7110 is DLR-3 and it's also supported. Infrared connection works under Windows'98 and Windows'2000. To tune the program, set the corresponding connection method and serial port number in the "Program options" dialog. You don't need to set serial port number if you use IR. Q.7. I have worked with Oxygen SMS and Phonebook Manager for Nokia 51**/61** models. Can I use files created by it in the Phone Manager for Nokia 7110? A.7. Yes, the Phone Manager for Nokia 7110 can load files created by version for 51**/61**. However, files saved in the version for 7110 are not supported by the version for 51**/61**. Q.8. How long names are allowed in the phonebook? A.8. The 7110 model imposes certain restrictions on the data length. If phonebook entries are stored in a SIM-card, maximum length of name depends on the specific SIM-card. The program confines them to 12 characters. Maximum number of entries which can be stored in SIM is also manufacturer-dependent. Names stored in the phone memory can be up to 50 characters long. Phone numbers can have 48 characters maximum, and emails, postal addresses and notes can be 60 characters long. You can store up to 1000 entries in the phone memory. Q.9. Is it possible to lose information? A.9. Sure, there is such possibility. You can delete some data unintentionally, the phone can hang up as well as your PC. In order to prevent yourself from data losses make data backups periodically (actually, one of primary goals of the software is to help to make a copy of your entries for safe storing and future use). Specifically, it's highly recommended to save data in a file immediately after you read them from the phone first time. Then, it is a good practice to make copies before writing to the phone. Q.10. How can I make sure the phone is connected? A.10. You need to look at the status bar. If you see the IMEI then the phone was connected. Though, it could be possibly disconnected by some reasons (infrared link errors etc). The program doesn't check the connection permanently. It does it only before read/write to the phone operations. To reconnect the phone, choose the corresponding menu item in the "Options" menu. Q.11. How to define note type for calendar in Outlook? A.11. You have to fill "Categories" field with one of the following words: Birthday, Call, Reminder, Meeting. The note will be placed into the corresponding group. If the field was left blank the note will be placed into "Reminder" group and selected. Q.12. I loaded calendar notes from Outlook and saved them into the phone. When I read calendar memory of my phone I saw also old entries I had entered earlier. What's the matter? A.12. The program knows nothing about the calendar entries stored in the phone until you read them in the current session. So, if you rewrite the calendar without previous reading the old entries won't be affected. At the contrary, if you downloaded entries from the phone, changed or deleted some of them, these modifications will be reflected on the phone's memory when you write the data back to the phone.
