Taskbar Icons
Watcher displays an icon in the status area (which is usually
located in the lower right corner of your screen). The status
area icon indicates your connection status or notifies you when
you have voice mail or SMS messages, or when you have
missed a call.
The auto-answer indicator shows whether
Watcher is set to automatically answer
incoming calls. You can enable and disable
this feature under Tools > Options.
The headset indicator shows whether a
headset is connected to the AirCard.
This indicator shows whether the silent
ringer feature is enabled. When enabled,
no sound is played when an incoming call
is received. You can enable and disable
this feature under Tools > Options.
The privacy indicator shows whether
encryption is in use on voice calls.
(Encryption prevents your calls from being
monitored.) The AirCard uses encryption
where it is available on the network.
The compression indicator shows whether
V.42bis compression is in use. Where
V.42bis is available on the network, the
AirCard uses this compression scheme to
increase throughput and the effective data
transmission speed.
