At+Cpin2 Pin2 Authentication - Multi-Tech MultiModem EDGE Reference Manual

5.2 AT+CPIN2 PIN2 Authentication

AT+CPIN2 controls network authentication of the Multi-Tech wireless modem.
Description:
The read command returns an alphanumeric string indicating whether or not network
authentication is required.
The write command allows the Multi-Tech wireless modem to store the entered password. This
may be, for example, the SIM PIN2 to benefit from the features listed below or the SIM PUK2 to
replace a disabled PIN2 with a new one. Note that PIN2 can only be entered if PIN1
authentication was done.
If the Multi-Tech wireless modem is requesting SIM PUK2, use <pin> to enter the PUK2, followed
by <new pin> to specify the new PIN2.

Parameter Descriptions:
<pin>
Password (string type), usually SIM PIN2 or, if requested, SIM PUK2.
<new pin>
If the requested code was SIM PUK2: new password (PIN2).
See Section 5.1.1, What to do if PIN or password authentication fails? for more information about when you may
need to enter the PUK.
<code>
READY ME is not pending for any password.
SIM PIN2 ME is waiting for SIM PIN2.
This <code> is returned only when PIN2 authentication has not yet been done or has failed ("+CME
ERROR:17").
SIM PUK2 ME is waiting for SIM PUK2.
This <code> is returned only when PIN2 authentication has failed and ME is pending for SIM PUK2
(i.e., "+CME ERROR:18").
Note:
•
Functions accessible only after PIN2 authentication:
AT+CACM: Accumulated call meter (ACM) reset or query
AT+CAMM: Accumulated call meter maximum (ACMmax) set or query
AT+CLCK: Facility lock to "FD" (Fixed dialing phonebook)
AT^SLCK: Facility lock to "FD" (Fixed dialing phonebook)
AT+CPWD: Change "P2"password
AT^SPWD: Change "P2"password
AT+CPUC: Price per unit and currency table
AT+CPIN2: Enter SIM PIN2 or SIM PUK2 if requested.
For example, SIM PIN2 will be needed when you attempt to edit the "FD" phonebook and ME returns "+CME
Error 17" or "+CPIN: SIM PIN2".
Once the required <pin> has been entered correctly, PIN2 authentication code changes to READY. After 300s, a
repetition of the authentication process is required; PIN2 authentication code changes from READY to SIM PIN2.
Examples:
Example 1: Change PIN2
AT+CPWD="P2","0000","8888"
OK
Example 2: Unblock a disabled PIN2
AT+CPIN2?
+CPIN2: SIM PUK2
OK
AT+CPIN2=12345678,8888
Example 3: Write into "FD" phonebook
AT+CPBS="FD"
OK
AT+CPBW=2,"+493012345678",145,"Charly"
+CME ERROR 17 access denied due to missing PIN2 authentication
AT+CPIN2=8888
OK
AT+CPBW=2,"+493012345678",145,"Charly"
OK

(where "0000" = old PIN2 and "8888" = new PIN2)
PIN2 has been disabled, PUK2 must be entered
to define a new PIN2
where "12345678" is the PUK2, and "8888" the new PIN2.
