About Data Communication
You can use the FOMA terminal for three types
of data communication, packet communication,
64K data communication, and data transfer.
ˎ
The FOMA terminal does not support Remote
Wakeup.
ˎ
The FOMA terminal does not support FAX
communication.
ˎ
If you are going to connect the FOMA terminal to
DoCoMo’s “sigmarion
Ⅱ
”/“sigmarion
Ⅲ
”/“musea”
PDA to perform data communication, you should
update “sigmarion
Ⅱ
”/“musea”. For details about
updating, see the DoCoMo’s website.
ˎ
64K data communication to be performed by
connecting to a PC is not available overseas. When
you originate the packet communication, use the IP
connection to communicate (the PPP connection
cannot originate the packet communication).
Packet Communication
A charge applies to this type of communication
based on the volume of exchanged data
(maximum reception speed 3.6Mbps,
maximum transmission speed 384kbps).
You can perform packet communication by
connecting the FOMA terminal to a PC using
the FOMA USB Cable with Charge Function 01
(optional) and making the necessary settings.
Use a FOMA packet communication-compliant
access point such as DoCoMo’s Internet
connection service “mopera U”/“mopera”. You
can also exchange data by accessing an in-
house LAN connected to the FOMA network.
ˎ
Note that packet communication could be expensive
if you exchange large volumes of data such as
viewing sites or Internet home pages that contain
images or downloading files.
ˎ
The maximum transmission/reception speed is
384kbps outside of the FOMA HIGH-SPEED Area.
ˎ
When you use DoCoMo’s “sigmarion
Ⅲ
”/“sigmarion
Ⅱ
”/“musea” PDA to perform packet communication,
the maximum transmission/reception speed is
384kbps. It does not support the high-speed
communication compatible with HIGH-SPEED Area.
64K Data Communication
A charge applies to this type of communication
based on the duration of a communication.
You can perform 64K data communication by
connecting the FOMA terminal to a PC using
the FOMA USB Cable with Charge Function 01
(optional) and making the necessary settings.
Use a FOMA 64K data communication-
compliant access point such as DoCoMo’s
Internet connection service “mopera U”/
“mopera” or ISDN synchronous 64K access
points.
ˎ
Note that 64K data communication could be
expensive if it is performed for a long period of time.
Data Transfer
This type of communication is used to
exchange data using the infrared or iC
communication or the FOMA USB Cable with
Charge Function 01 (optional) and no charge
is required. Using infrared communication, you
can exchange data with a device such as the
FOMA terminal or a PC that is equipped with
the infrared communication function.
Precautions on Use
Usage Fee of Internet Service Provider
When you use the Internet, a usage fee is
required for your Internet service provider. This
usage fee, which is separate from the FOMA
service charges, must be paid directly to the
Internet service provider. For details about
usage fees, contact your Internet service
provider.
You can use DoCoMo’s Internet connection
service “mopera U”/“mopera”.
To use “mopera U”, you need to subscribe to
this service (paid service). No monthly charge
is required to use “mopera” and you do not
need to subscribe to it.
