RST310 USER & INSTALLATION MANUAL
29
Using the RJ-11 Socket & Telephone
To make a phone call:
PIN controlled access:
Your 9505A handheld phone may have been set-up to require a PIN, if this is still
active on your handheld terminal this will be indicated by the Signal light flashing Red
and a distinctive dial tone consisting of two alternating tones on the RST310 terminal.
If a normal dial tone is heard, proceed to dial your desired number as described
below.
If a distinctive, two-tone dial tone is heard, one of two access codes is required – the
SIM PIN or the PIN Unlock Code (PUK).
•
The SIM PIN is required if the two tones are of equal length. If so simply enter
the four digit PIN and await a change of tone (up to ten seconds), then hang
up. If the PIN was correct the phone will register and you may proceed with
normal use as described below.
•
The PUK is required if the PIN has been incorrectly entered three times and is
indicated when the high tone is longer than the low tone. Enter the PUK code,
await a change of tone (up to ten seconds) and hang up. If the PUK was
correct the phone will register and you may proceed with normal use as
described below. The SIM card will be permanently disabled if an incorrect
PUK is entered 10 times in a row. Note that in future the PIN to be entered is
now that of the USER PIN programmed for the log port of the RST310. The
original PIN on the SIM has been erased by entry of the PUK.
Once powered up, the RST310 attempts to register with the Iridium network. The
signal level LED uses colour to indicate how strong the Iridium signal is at your
location.

No signal, problem with installation
In most cases the indicator will show green after a short period of approximately 15
seconds – orange indicates an acceptable but marginal signal strength. If the
indicator remains red, there is a problem with the installation.
