If however the Reg light is not lit, your modem may need to be configured with a
phone number and other parameters. Or if you have service ordered and a phone
number for your modem, you may add these parameters yourself for some carrier
accounts by doing the following:
Connect up to configure the modem as in Section 3.1.
If you are unfamiliar with using AT commands, please review Section 5 first.
Use the following command to go into PassThru mode: AT\APASSTHRU
(see section PassThru Mode). Note that this command may take up to 20
seconds to initially complete.
Enter the Lock code from your provider using AT~NAMLCK (as described
below).
Enter the phone number, System ID and Network ID with the AT~NAMVAL
command (described below). The parameters are saved automatically once
entered.
The modem must be physically power-cycled to exit this mode. (This is also
the only way to exit PassThru mode.) Press the Reset button on the front of
the modem.
It may be necessary to enter the username and password provided by your
service provider in the *NETUID and *NETPW fields. (See Section Error!
Reference source not found..) Use AT&W to save these settings.
(PassThru mode is not needed for those two parameters.)
The modem should now come online registered.
Note that the activation process is unique for each type of service provided
by each carrier. The specific activation process required for your service
and carrier is provided in a separate document available on
www.airlink.com.
3.2.1.1 Syntax for ~NAMLCK and ~NAMVAL
~NAMLCK
NAMLCK = “NAM Lock”-
The NAM is the “Number Assignment Module”. The NAMLCK command
unlocks the ability to set the NAM parameters (to provision a an account).
The NAMLCK is the modem’s 6-digit OTSL (One Time Subsidy Lock), MSL
(Master Subsidy Lock), or SPC (Service Provisioning Code). The carrier
provides this number to you at time of service activation. If the number is
accepted by the modem, the OK result code is returned. If the number is
rejected, the ERROR result is returned. If three successive Errors are returned,
the modem must be reset to allow any further attempts.
Note: The modem permits 99 failures of this command during its lifetime.
After that, the modem becomes permanently disabled.
AT Command Format:
AT~NAMLCK=nnnnnn {Input} (nnnnnn = Lock Code from carrier)
OK {Response}
