Sim Card Personal Identification Number (Pin) - Motorola iM1100 User Manual

SIM CARD PERSONAL
IDENTIFICATION NUMBER (PIN)
To prevent unauthorized use of your modem, your SIM card is protected by a
PIN. Each time the modem is powered on, you must enter your PIN. You can
change or disable your PIN if desired.
NOTE: Disabling your PIN enables anyone to use your modem. If you
disable your PIN, you must still keep the SIM card in the modem
to make calls.
Entering the PIN
Depending on your service provider, your modem may or may not require you
to enter a SIM PIN when you first use your modem.
If your modem is set to require you to enter a PIN, your default PIN is 0000. It is
recommended that you change your PIN to prevent fraudulent use of the SIM
card (see "Changing the PIN" on page 20).

To enter a SIM PIN:
1. From the User Settings window, enter your 4- to 8-digit PIN. An
asterisk appears for each character entered.
2. Click OK.
If you enter an incorrect PIN, the message SIM PIN incorrect: Try again
appears. After three consecutive incorrect attempts, the SIM card is blocked.
Once blocked the modem does not allow you to enter your PIN again, even after
powering the modem off and back on. If this happens, see "Unblocking the PIN"
on page 20.
