To Change the PIN Value Entered by the Automatic PIN Entry Feature
Automatic PIN entry must be disabled when youl program the new PIN and Auto PIN Entry.
1) Using a tone-dial (DTMF) POTS telephone connected to the Phone port, lift up the
handset(take off-hook).
2) Enter the Programming mode:
Press: # * 0 * 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 #
The dial tone will cease upon entry of the first digit. If you enter the access code correctly, the
dial tone should change to a different, steady “Programming” tone and the bottom LED indicator
on the front of the Phonecell
®
SX5 will blink alternately RED and GREEN to indicate that you’re
in the programming mode.
3) Press: # * 64 * < old_PIN> * <new PIN> * <new PIN> #
The new SIM PIN will be supplied by the service provider with a new SIM.
If the SIM card is changed, the PIN must be reprogrammed using the above command with the
correct new PIN for the new SIM.
NOTE: The factory default PIN setting within the FWT’s non-volatile memory is "1234."
4) Correct entry will be confirmed by the return of the programming tone, which signifies that
the unit is ready to accept the next entry. Incorrect entry will result in a short, three tone
sequence of rising frequencies, followed by the return of the programming tone, which again
signifies that the unit is ready to accept the corrected entry.
5) Hang up the telephone handset (place on-hook).
For Example: To set up a new SIM with PIN "5678," dial: # * 64 * 1 2 3 4 * 5 6 7 8 * 5 6 7 8
#
NOTE: This procedure will not change the PIN encoded on the SIM. It will only change the PIN
stored in the FWT for automatic entry of the PIN when requested by the GSM module.
If the SIM card in use has SIM PIN Entry enabled, it is strongly recommended that Automatic
PIN Entry be selected.
To Set a New PIN in the SIM
REMINDER: Automatic PIN entry must be disabled - before and while the SIM PIN is changed -
until programming of the new PIN and Auto PIN Entry (see previous page) is completed.
1) Using a tone-dial (DTMF) POTS telephone connected to the Phone port, lift up the handset
(take off-hook).
2) Press: * * 04 * < old_PIN> * <new_PIN> * <new_PIN> #
NOTE: You must know the old PIN to change it and the new PIN must be 4 to 8 digits (0 - 9) in
length.
3) Incorrect entry of the old PIN will be indicated by a short, three tone sequence of rising fre-
quencies. Hang up the telephone handset and start over at step 1 with the correct old PIN.
Incorrect length (less than 4 or more than 8 digits) of the new PIN or not entering the same
value in both new PIN entries will result in silence. Hang up the telephone handset and start
over at step1.
Correct entry will be confirmed by a short beep. Hang up the telephone handset.
For Example: To set up a new SIM with PIN "5678," where the old PIN is “1234,” dial: * * 04
* 1 2 3 4 * 5 6 7 8 * 5 6 7 8 #
NOTE: In case of PIN2, substitute the following step 2:
2) Press: * * 042 * <old_PIN2> * <new_PIN2> * <new_PIN2> #
NOTE: You must know the old PIN2 to change it and the new PIN2 must be 4 to 8 digits (0 - 9)
in length.
For Example: To set up a new SIM with PIN2 "5678," where the old PIN2 is “1234,” dial: * *
042 * 1 2 3 4 * 5 6 7 8 * 5 6 7 8 #
NOTE: This procedure will change the PIN encoded on the SIM. It will not change the PIN
stored in the FWT for automatic entry of the PIN when requested by the GSM module. (See pre-
vious page for instructions on how to enter the auto-entry PIN value).
