Access
Class
Overload This is a number (0-15) that specifies the level of
priority the mobile has when accessing the system.
This parameter was designed to give all users
equal opportunity to access the system in high us-
age situations. There is no relationship between
numbers and priority (i.e., higher numbers do not
necessarily mean higher priority).

Paging Channel
Primary Paging
Channel
A three digit channel number specifying the sys-
tem control channel to start the scan. The initial
channel for system A is 333. The initial paging
channel for system B is 334. Each carrier (A or B)
has 21 paging channels (also called control chan-
nels). The channels for the A carrier start at 333
and end at 313. The paging channels for B carriers
are 334 to 354.
Home SID
Determines home area.
This five-digit decimal number identifies the cus-
tomer’s “home” system. The number is sent to the
mobile, by the cell, for the mobile to figure out if it
is in its home system. If the system ID sent by the
cell doesn’t match the phone’s programmed sys-
tem ID, the telephone’s Roam light will display.
Odd numbers generally denote system A and even
numbers are generally used by the B carriers.
Auto Registration
Autonomous or
Manual Registra-
tion
If activated, the phone will register it’s location to
the cellular system. Once registered, the system
would have information of the mobile operating
within proximity.
