6 Configuration commands - for Falcom STEPP

STEPPCONFIG VERSION 1.8.14
6.3.2 PIN
Syntax PIN=
SMS
command
NMEA
message
The parameter lets the STEPP device store the entered PIN of the
used SIM card.
It specifies the PIN number of the used SIM card. This may be for
example the SIM PIN to register onto the GSM network, or the SIM PIN
to replace the current PIN number with a new one.
How the parameter could be sent:
Not supported
$PSRF108,PIN=1321*69
Notes
• Successful PIN authentication only confirms that the entered PIN was
recognized and correct. The PIN acception does not necessarily imply
that the STEPP is registered to the desired network. Typical example:
PIN was entered and accepted, but the STEPP fails to register to the
network. This may be due to missing network coverage, denied network
access with currently used SIM card, no valid roaming agreement
between home network and currently available operators etc.
• To verify the present status of network registration, please refer to the
green LED states in the hardware manual of the STEPP device. The
next way to verify if it is available, establisch remotely a voice or data
call.
• No PIN request is more pending, if the PIN number of used SIM card
once has been specified and it is sent to the STEPP device. The STEPP
stores that specified PIN and uses it upon request of the GSM part. No
more PIN entery is required from your part, as long as the used SIM
card is not replaced with a new one.
• A SMS command sent without value deletes the existed entry.
6.3.3 PWD
Syntax PWD=
This parameter allows you to define or to change the device password for
SMS configuration.
It specifies the password (string type) for the device configuration via
SMS. The user-specified password protects the STEPP device from
the prohibited accesses. Password consists of a string with a length
upto 40 characters.
