address could be wap.examplesite.com). Press the “ok” soft key. The http:// is automatically added.
NOTE: Symbols or punctuation can be entered by pressing the soft key under
“Alpha” until “SYM1” or “More” soft keys appear and selecting the number of the
desired symbol. “More” can be pressed for more options (SYM2, SYM3, etc).
My LINC Office will send the requested site’s wireless address to the Internet and if found will display the
initial page of the site.
4. To add the site, press and hold the “MENU” key until the “Browser Menu” page appears. Scroll down
to the “Mark Site” option and press “Ok”. The site name will appear as the proposed bookmark label.
