SIM Card and Identification

A SIM (Subscriber Identity Module) card is required to access the existing local

GSM network, or remote networks when traveling (if a roaming agreement has been

made with the provider).

The SIM card contains:

• All the data necessary to access GSM services

• The ability to store user information such as phone numbers.

• All information required by the network provider to provide access to the

network.

Each Motorola GSM device is labelled with a variety of identifying numbers.

The following information describes the current identifying labels.

Mechanical Serial Number (MSN)

The Mechanical Serial Number (MSN) is an individual unit identity number and

remains with the unit throughout the life of the unit.

The MSN can be used to log and track a unit on Motorola's Service Center Database.

The MSN is divided into 4 sections as shown in Figure 15.

International Mobile Station Equipment Identity (IMEI)

The International Mobile station Equipment Identity (IMEI) number is an

individual number unique to the PCB and is stored within the unit's memory.

The IMEI uniquely identifies an individual mobile station and thereby provides a

means for controlling access to GSM networks based on mobile station types or

individual units. The full IMEI structure is listed in Table 2.
