Memory Management System
The PageWriter 2000X Two-Way Wireless Communications Cen-
ter internal memory management system automatically performs
maintenance tasks. These tasks ensure sufficient memory is avail-
able to receive incoming messages and to support your processing
requirements. To maximize memory efficiency, messages are de-
leted in the following order:
Ä Messages deleted during the cleanup process are not moved to
the Trashcan; they are permanently deleted.
Ä Unread and alarmed messages are deleted from inboxes that
contain 250 messages or if the Number of Messages cleanup
option is selected and the limit for the number of messages has
been reached.
Trashcan — Automatically configured to empty each night at
midnight (you may specify the cleanup of inboxes and the Outbox,
as well); midnight cleanup deletes messages placed in the Trashcan
24 to 48 hours earlier. Messages placed in the Trashcan within the
last 24 hours are deleted at midnight the next day. The Trashcan
is the first container the system empties when memory space is
required (deleting as many messages as necessary to make room
for incoming messages).
Outbox — Deletes all sent/unsaved messages from the transmis-
sion area of the Outbox starting with the oldest message first. The
transmission status is retained but the text of each message is
deleted.
Main Inbox —Deletes all read messages from the Main Inbox
starting with the oldest message first.
Personal Inboxes — Deletes all read messages from personal
inboxes starting with the oldest message first.
Information Services Inboxes — Deletes all read messages
from each information service inbox starting with the oldest mes-
sage first.
Reminders and Alarmed Messages — Deletes any alarmed
inbox message or Reminder where the alarm has already gone off;
messages are deleted in the following order:
1. Main inbox
2. Personal inboxes
3. Information Services inboxes
4. Reminders
Ä Alarmed messages that are set for periodic alarm (e.g. the alarm
goes off every week) will not be deleted.
