SIM PIN authentication
READY PIN has already been entered. No further entry needed.
SIM PIN ME is waiting for SIM PIN1.
SIM PUK ME is waiting for SIM PUK1 if PIN1 was disabled after three failed attempts to
enter PIN1.
SIM PIN2 ME is waiting for PIN2. This is only applicable when an attempt to access a
PIN2 related feature was acknowledged with +CME ERROR: 17 ("SIM PIN2
required"), for example when the client attempts to edit the FD phonebook). In
this case the read command AT+CPIN? also prompts for SIM PIN2. See also
AT+CPIN2.
SIM PUK2 ME is waiting for PUK2 to unblock a disabled PIN2. As above, this is only nec-
essary when the preceding command was acknowledged with +CME ERROR:
18 ("SIM PUK2 required") and only if the read command AT+CPIN? also
prompts for SIM PUK2. See also AT+CPIN2.
Phone security locks set by client or factory
PH-SIM PIN ME is waiting for phone-to-SIM card password if "PS" lock is active and the cli-
ent inserts other SIM card than the one used for the lock. ("PS" lock is also
referred to as phone or antitheft lock).
PH-NET PUK ME is waiting for network personalisation unblocking password
PH-NETSUB PIN ME is waiting for network subset personalisation password
PH-NETSUB PUK ME is waiting for network subset unblocking password
PH-SP PIN ME is waiting for service provider personalisation password
PH-SP PUK ME is waiting for service provider personalisation unblocking password
PH-CORP PIN ME is waiting for corporate personalisation password
PH-CORP PUK ME is waiting for corprorate personalisation un-blocking password
Notes
• Successful PIN authentication only confirms that the entered PIN was recognized and correct. The output of
the result code OK does not necessarily imply that the mobile is registered to the desired network.
Typical example: PIN was entered and accepted with OK, but the ME 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.
EHS6 offers various options to verify the present status of network registration: For example, the AT+COPS
command indicates the currently used network. With AT+CREG you can also check the current status and acti-
vate an unsolicited result code which appears whenever the status of the network registration changes (e.g.
when the ME is powered up, or when the network cell changes).
• To check the number of remaining attempts to enter the passwords use the AT^SPIC command.
•See AT+CPWD for information on passwords.
•See AT+CLCK for information on lock types.
