If a reset does not clear this condition, the modem may need to be replaced. • NDIS error An internal software error has occurred.
Chapter 5: Settings Tools Menu Preliminary Draft While automatic connection mode is enabled, the Connect Data button in the main Wireless LAN dialog box changes to Disable Auto. To close the currently active connection (if any) and disable the automatic connection mode: • Tap on Disable Auto. Important: Automatic connection mode should not be used if applications other than the Wireless WAN user interface (e.g. Connection Manager) are expected to open and close connections.
Preliminary Draft Chapter 5: Settings Tools Menu Important: For CDMA/1xRTT, automatic configuration is not available – connections must be configured manually. Under APN, the packet service access number must be entered (typically “#777”). In the following section, all the parameters that need to be configured for a connection (such as APN, user name, password, DNS server addresses etc.) are referred to as a profile. Every profile is identified by an arbitrary, unique name.
Chapter 5: Settings Tools Menu • Preliminary Draft New – Tapping on the New button allows you to create a new profile. The name of the newly created profile must be different from all existing profiles. Also, the name cannot be Default. When the New Data Profile dialog box is opened, a proposal for a unique name is filled in the corresponding entry field.
Preliminary Draft • Chapter 5: Settings Tools Menu Advanced IP – The Advanced IP button in the Show Profile and Edit Profile dialog boxes opens another dialog box that allows you to configure a static IP address as well as the IP addresses for the primary and secondary DNS and WINS resolvers. 5.44.5.2 Security Configuration The Security Configuration dialog box is called up through the Tools menu. Note: Security configuration is not available with CDMA modems.
Chapter 5: Settings Tools Menu Preliminary Draft If unauthorized access to the device is a concern, the Require PIN on resume checkbox should be checked. In this case, you will be prompted whenever a PIN is required and the PIN is not stored. 5.44.5.3 Network Configuration Note: Network configuration is not available with CDMA modems. In the main Wireless WAN screen: • Tap on the Tools menu, and choose Network.
Preliminary Draft Chapter 5: Settings Tools Menu 5.44.5.4 Driver Mode Configuration By default, the Wireless WAN driver is enabled (the Enable driver checkbox is checked). The driver must be disabled in order to access the modem directly (e.g. dial-up data, fax, or in order to manually submit AT commands to the modem for development, testing, approvals, etc.). In most cases, the Virtual WWAN serial port can be used and it is not necessary to disable the WWAN driver.
Chapter 5: Settings Tools Menu Preliminary Draft SIM, the Phone field remains empty. The modem serial number is called IMEI for GSM modems and ESN for CDMA modems. The SIM ID is sometimes referred to as the ICC ID (International Charge Card Identifier). Not all modems support the retrieval of the SIM ID. In particular, the Novatel Merlin UMTS modems and the Option Globetrotter modems do not support SIM ID retrieval.
Preliminary Draft Chapter 5: Settings SMS Menu When the EP10 enters suspend mode, the modem remains powered. If the EP10 is not turned on again during the configured time, the unit briefly wakes up from suspend mode, shuts down the modem, and enters suspend mode again. The default mode is Enabled Keep on for 1 hour. At the cost of a slightly increased power consumption in suspend mode, the modes where the modem remains powered during suspend mode have several advantages.
Chapter 5: Settings SMS Menu Preliminary Draft 5.44.6.1 New SMS Tapping on New opens a dialog box for sending a new SMS message. The recipient's phone number (to be entered in the To field) can consist of the digits 0 through 9, as well as the * and # characters, optionally preceded by one + character, indicating an international number (i.e. the country code follows immediately after the + character).
Preliminary Draft Chapter 5: Settings SMS Menu most recently received message first. The list can be sorted by any other column by clicking on the corresponding column heading. Clicking the same column heading twice reverses the sort order. Pressing any letter or digit moves the highlight to the next message whose address begins with that letter or number. Note: The date and time formats can be changed through the Regional Settings in the Control Panel.
