USIM/SIM C
ARD
The USIM contains an identity that uniquely identifies a subscriber. The USIM provides storage for
subscription and subscriber related information.
Access to the USIM, and therefore to the BGAN system, can be restricted to an authorized user
or number of users, using the USIM Personal Identification Number (PIN). The PIN is stored securely
in the USIM.
The USIM personalization feature ensures that access to a terminal or other user equipment can
be restricted to an authorized USIM. The USIM and the terminal share a code stored securely in
the USIM and the terminal. If a USIM fails to prove its knowledge of the code, it is denied access
to the terminal.
If the USIM is removed during operation, the terminal will deactivate any active PDP contexts,
detach from the network, and enter a "NO SIM" operational mode. If the USIM is reinserted while
the terminal is still powered on, it must be restarted to detect the new or replaced USIM.
If you change the SIM card you may need to reconfigure your ACA settings, e.g. if the APN or
username or password is different between the two SIM cards.

UTTONS
The Satellite Terminal has two buttons:
The Power button is used for turning the terminal on or off. A long press of the button will
either turn it on or off.
The Audio button is used for switching the audio tones on and off. These tones are useful
during pointing mode (see the section Using the Audio Buzzer). Press the button to turn the
tones on and off.
Once you have the terminal correctly pointed to the satellite, you can long press (3-4
seconds) the "Audio" button to register with the network. You can tell when you are
registered with the network when the solid green GPS LED goes out.
