WCE 2.0 and Motorola 100C

You need to configure the WCE 2.0 device to use the SLIP mode.
The information you need to obtain the relevant documents and software are as follows:

• You can refer to Motorola Web Site for the up-to-date note on installing for Windows CE 2.0.
• Neda also keeps relatively recent notes on installing Motorola PM100C for use with Windows CE 2.0. Visit Neda's copy of Notes on Installing for Windows CE 2.0

3. Apply power to the Personal Messenger 100C modem.
4. If you are running the HPC on battery power, you will be asked, "Do you want to use this PC Card on battery power?" (Note: this will occur anytime that you turn on your modem

The following assumes that you have already programmed a working IP address into your Personal Messenger 100C modem. If this is not the case, consult the modem's manual and set your IP address first.

1. In the Terminal window, type AT and press the Enter key. This confirms that your modem is in Command mode. The message "OK" or a zero typically appears. If it does not appear, enter +++ to receive the correct message.
2. Type: ATE1V1. Press Enter. The OK message appears.
3. Type: AT+WV121=1. Press Enter. This command allows your Personal Messenger 100C modem to enable your selected on-line local protocol automatically upon start-up. The OK message appears.
4. Type: AT+WS45=3. Press Enter. This command selects SLIP mode as your on-line local protocol. Again, the OK message appears.
5. Type: AT+WV105=0. Press Enter. This command programs your Personal Messenger 100C modem for automatic registration each time you turn it on. Your modem sends a registration request to your CDPD carrier, using the selected IP address immediately upon start-up. The OK message then appears.
6. Type: AT&W. Press Enter. This command saves to non-volatile memory the values you have programmed. Your Personal Messenger 100C modem recalls these customized parameters from session to session, even when turned off between sessions.
