15.3 Related AT Commands
The following commands might be of interest while using the RSA feature.
• AT^SCKS
This AT command is used to check the current status of the SIM (local or remote).
• AT^SSET
After power on and personalization (PIN entry if required), the ME starts reading data from the SIM. Please
keep in mind that after entering the PIN, even after the TE sends "OK", subsequent commands that need
access to data stored on the SIM may be blocked for up to 30 seconds. It may take even longer to access the
remote SIM depending on the establishment of the RSA communication link. Therefore, it is recommended
to take advantage of the "^SSIM READY" URC enabled with the AT^SSET command. This URC notifies the
user when the process of reading SIM has completed. Afterwards all commands regarding to SIM data files
can be used, e.g. the SMS and phonebook commands.
• AT^SLCC
This command is recommended for querying the state of current calls. A list of all active calls will be returned.
This is especially important when the user wants to terminate the SAP connection using
AT^SRSA=,,,,,; with set to 0 and set to 1. All
calls or active GPRS contexts established via remote SIM will be terminated and the ME will use the locally
attached SIM card.
• AT^SIND="simlocal",1
"+CIEV" "simlocal" URCs indicate the availability of a locally (i.e. physically) connected SIM.
• AT^SIND="simstatus",1
"+CIEV" "simstatus" URCs indicate the current status of a locally (i.e. physically) or remotely connected SIM.
• SIM data storage
It is recommended that all user relevant data are stored on the SIM only. For example, added phonebook and
SMS entries in the client's storage are not accessible after a RSA connection.
15.3.1 Establishing an RSA Connection in a PC Environment
To set up an RSA connection in a PC environment an appropriate PC application is needed. For test and evaluation
purposes and as exemplary implementation guidance Cinterion Wireless Modules offers a PC application
called "ComBridge". For ordering details contact your local dealer. "ComBridge" provides basic features to simulate
an RSA application environment, e.g. mapping of the SAP communication between a SAP server and client.
To support the different RSA coding modes (SAP and XSAP) and to transfer data between the two COM
ports, the PC application uses two variable modules (filters):
• XSAP filter
Translating the "^SRSM" URCs into the AT^SRSM command
• SAP filter
Transparently transfer binary SAP messages. The generic "1:1" filter ("software null modem") can also be
used for this purpose, but communication might be slower since it performs bytewise data transfer.
15.3.2 Bluetooth scenario (SAP)
A connection between a TC63i operating as an SAP client and a device that supports Bluetooth and SIM Access
profile requires:
a) System requirements
• Windows 2000, Windows XP (or later) installed
• USB Bluetooth dongle. The driver of the dongle must allow connections to Bluetooth profiles which are not
yet specified by the SIG, e.g. SAP.
b) Installation procedure
