SIM Card

Note: The FELCOM251/501 uses only Inmarsat Fleetbroadband compatible SIM
cards.
Individual user information is stored on the SIM card. The system reads information
when the SIM card is inserted. The user registration number is saved on the SIM card,
and it is possible to transmit with different SIM cards from one terminal. In this case,
the transmission fees are charged to the person registered to the SIM Card.
There are 4 registration codes on the SIM card, [PIN1], [PUK1], [PIN2], [PUK2]. This
unit does not use the code [PIN2] and [PUK2]. Be sure to carefully write down the
[PIN1] and [PUK1] code numbers and do not lose or forget them.
PIN code
To prevent unauthorized use by a third party, there is a 4-8 digit PIN (Personal Iden-
tification Number) code. When the unit is turned on, the user will be prompted to enter
the PIN code if required. Enter the [PIN1] code. If the wrong code is entered 3 times,
the system will lock and the Communication Unit cannot be used.
PUK code
If the system locks, use the 8-digit PUK (PIN Unblocked Key) code to unlock the sys-
tem. Use the code [PUK1]. If the wrong PUK code is entered 10 times, the SIM card
will cease operating. If this happens, contact the retailer of the SIM card.
Handling the SIM card
• Ensure the power is off before inserting/removing the SIM card.
