3 SERVICE-PROGRAMMING MODEMS
QUALCOMM Globalstar GSP-1620 Satellite Data Modems
work within the Globalstar satellite system, using “airtime”
offered by a Service Provider (SP). To operate, each GSP-1620
modem must be service programmed, meaning that certain
key parameters (such as the Globalstar IMSI) must be
configured to work with the SP.
For service programming, you connect the modem’s
Diagnostic port to a Windows 98/NT/2000 PC, using the
Diagnostic cable included in the Modem Integrator’s Kit. On
the PC, you run the Globalstar User Terminal Program
Support Tool (UTPST), which is included in your Modem
Integrator’s Kit.
This chapter discusses how to coordinate with your SP to
service-program GSP-1620 modems, including the following
topics:
UTPST overview
Using the UTPST
Re-programming default parameters
Bulk-programming modems
Upgrading modem software
This chapter does not discuss how to install the UTPST
software, nor does it provide complete details on how to use
the UTPST.
Note
For detailed UTPST information, see the Globalstar UT Program
Support Tool User’s Guide (80-98225-1) in your kit. For details about all
service programming parameters, see the Globalstar User Terminal
Service Programming Guide (80-98482-1).
