SIM PIN If your AirLInk device has a PIN-locked SIM card installed, before the device goes on-air for the first
time:
1. Obtain the PIN from your Mobile Network Operator.
2. Click the SIM PIN button.
3. Select Enable.
4. Enter the PIN twice and click Save.
Note: On subsequent reboots and reconnects, ALEOS automatically uses the PIN. This feature
prevents the SIM from being used in another device without re-entering the PIN.
Note: You have three attempts to enter the correct PIN. If the correct PIN is not entered by the
third attempt, the SIM card becomes blocked and you need a PUK code from your Mobile Network
Operator to unlock it. For more information, see SIM Card is Blocked on page 397.
