General Settings

If the General Settings option is chosen from the Menu / Settings submenu, the General Settings dialog is displayed:

          ò  When the Play sound effects checkbox is checked, the Sprint PCS Connection Manager will use sound effects to alert the user as to changing conditions.

          ò  When the Always on top checkbox is checked, the Sprint PCS Connection Manager remains visible regardless of what other windows may be open.

          ò  When the Start in system tray checkbox is checked, the application will start with only an icon visible in the Windows system tray.

          ò  When the Keep connection history checkbox is checked, the Connection Manager will keep a history of the connections made.

          ò  When the Launch when Windows starts checkbox is checked, the Connection Manager will be launched as part of the Windows startup process.

           ò  When you install the Sprint PCS Connection Manager, the Check for updates once per month checkbox is checked.  This means that the Connection Manager will automatically perform a  check for any software updates on a monthly basis.  You can unclick this button, but it would then be necessary to manually check for updates.  Do this with the Check Now button.

          ò  The Check Now button on this dialog acts the same as described above in the Software Updates section.
