Introduction Returning to Idle State on an Enabled CU: Congratulations on your new Iridium equipment. 1. Press Your Iridium equipment is a modular system that consists of an antenna, transmitter/receiver, control handset and/or fixed control unit, and optional PSTN telephone/PBX. You can operate the Iridium equipment in voice mode from a control handset, fixed control unit, and/or PSTN telephone.

Using a Telephone To your Iridium equipment, you can connect a PSTN telephone or a PBX. Many of the system’s more advanced features, like the security lock function, are however not accessible from a telephone. Neither is any SIM card action. Therefore, when using the telephone, the SIM card has to be operational. This means that the pin code has to be disabled on the card, or the pin code must be entered from a CU before the telephone is used.
Handset Simple Operation Enter PIN To the Iridium system you can connect up to four handsets. A handset can be in one of two states: enabled or disabled. 7/9/1999 12:00:48 Handset States In each of the two states, the handset’s normal display and signalling can be described as follows: Key in the pin code supplied with the SIM card (see the installation manual).
