    Removing and inserting the SIM card during operation requires the software to be reinitialized. Therefore, after reinserting the SIM card it is necessary to restart MC55i Terminal. Note: No guarantee can be given, nor any liability accepted, if loss of data is encountered after removing the SIM card during operation.
  • Page 30: Status Led

    A green LED displays the operating status of the terminal: Figure 9: Status LED The LED is driven by the SYNC line of the integrated MC55i module which can be configured by using the AT^SSYNC command. For the purpose of the MC55i Terminal it is recommended to retain the default setting of AT^SSYNC=1 (AT^SSYNC=0 is not applicable).
