Do not attempt to make a phone call with an active SIM pin. Changing the
SIM card in the field to a different provider’s SIM card necessitates the
removal of the PIN for proper operation. If a PIN is entered incorrectly
three times, you will lock the phone and be unable to do any testing until the
problem is resolved by the factory.
How to Dial Calls (RJ11 POTS interface)
Lift handset key to get a dial tone.
Dial “00,” the country code, area code, and number followed by the pound key. The
pound key is required to alert the phone that the end of the dial string has been reached.
No call will be initiated without the pound key. You will hear call progress tones
followed by the ringing sound. For calls within the US, for example, dial as follows:
001-301-891-0600-#, where “00” is international access, “1” is the country code for the
US, and “#” is the end of the dialing string.
How to Dial Calls (RJ45 Iridium handset)
Dial “00,” the country code, area code, and number followed by the “OK” key. The
“Send” key is required to alert the phone that the end of the dial string has been reached.
No call will be initiated without the “Send” key. You will hear call progress tones
followed by the ringing sound. For calls within the US, for example, dial as follows:
001-301-891-0600-Send, where “00” is international access, and the “1” is the country
code for the US. Optionally, dialing strings can be stored in phone memory locations.
Note: There are some inherent delays and audio quality degradation in the
use of satellite communications. These anomalies can come and go
depending on current azimuth to the satellite in use, and even specific
satellite characteristics. Calls will occasionally be dropped due to
momentary signal loss in excess of 12 seconds. This sometimes frustrating
characteristic is a normal aspect of all wireless communications.
