Entering the PIN of the SIM Card
The INSYS GSM 4.3 requires a SIM card to be able to log into a GSM network.
Usually, a PIN is necessary that the device is able to use the SIM card for logging
into the GSM network. You may enter the PIN into the INSYS GSM 4.3 without in-
serting the SIM card. If the SIM card requires no PIN, you don’t have to enter a PIN
in the INSYS GSM 4.3. If you enter a PIN, it will be transmitted before every login
attempt.
Note
Loss of function of the SIM card!
A falsely entered PIN may lock the SIM card directly after
switching on the INSYS GSM 4.3, because the device will
try to log into the GSM network for more than three times.
Take care, that the SIM PIN configured in the INSYS GSM
4.3 corresponds with the SIM card or disable the PIN re-
quest of the SIM card. A possibly false configured PIN has
no effect if the PIN request is disabled.
