Appendix A: Test on Availability of SIM Card Data Service

For dialing with Modem, SIM card must be provided with data service, which shall be set by Operator on exchange end.

Hyper-terminal is a self-contained tool of operating system, which is installed upon setup of Windows2000/XP. If uninstalled you may set up via Add/delete program on control panel: select WINDOWS Groupware, click Accessory and Tool on Guide Menu of Windows Accessory and Tool, press Details, select Communication in popup Menu, click Details, select hyper-terminal in Communication menu, and then click OK to WINDOWS setup hyper-terminal.

Setup hyper-terminal in Windows98/ME is similar to what is mentioned above.

You are allowed to inspect whether data service is available for GSM SIM card or not via hyper-terminal, connect serial port wire of GSM wireless Modem or wired Modem to computer, select serial port, and then set serial port as follows: Baud Rate: 9600; Data Bit: 8; Odd/Even Check: None; Stop Bit: 1; Flow Control: None On Setting of hyper-terminal attribute, entering Set ASCII to single out all Check Boxes.

Suppose number of phone that Repeater GSM SIM card is inserted is 13871257852, it is required to check whether such number is available for data service.

Step 1: AT Enter, Back: OK, indicating MODEM is well prepared. In case of no Back or Back ERROR, it is necessary to check GSM MODEM status and setting of
