Abstract:
A method for re-establishing communication between a base station (102) that transmits on a forward channel, and a subscriber unit (108) that has temporarily lost the forward channel, uses the concept of a re-registration interval. The base station (102) transmits, to subscriber units (106, 108) in its area, a signal indicating the duration of a re-registration interval. A subscriber unit that has temporarily lost the forward channel determines whether the duration of such loss exceeds the re-registration interval. If the interval is exceeded, the subscriber unit sends a re-registration signal to the base station on a reverse channel. A selective call transceiver (400) is programmed to operate as a subscriber unit that uses the re-registration interval.

Abstract:
A communication system (100) for synchronizing implementation of configuration information includes a network manager (105) for transmitting the configuration information and communication devices (110, 115) coupled to the network manager (105) for receiving the configuration information and responding with confirmations indicating that the configuration information is acceptable. In response to receiving the confirmations, the network manager (105) provides to the communication devices (110, 115) an implementation time at which the communication devices (110, 115) begin to utilize the configuration information.
Abstract:
A portable electronic device (100,200) includes an image capture means (245) for capturing an image, wherein the image capture means (245) has an orientation; and an image manager (255) coupled to the image capture means (245) for modifying the image using the orientation.
