Write command
AT+CPIN=
[,
Response
The write command lets the ME store the entered password. This may be for
example the SIM PIN1 to register to the GSM network, or the SIM PUK1 to re-
place a disabled PIN with a new one, or the PH-SIM PIN if the client has taken
precautions for preventing damage in the event of loss or theft etc. See above
for the list of passwords.
OK
If error is related to ME functionality:
+CME ERROR:
If no PIN request is pending (for example if PIN authentication has been done
and the same PIN is entered again) ME responds +CME ERROR: operation not
allowed. No action is required from your part.
Parameter
password (string type), usually SIM PIN1.
If the requested password was a PUK, such as SIM PUK1 or PH-
SIM PUK or PH-FSIM PUK or another password, then
be followed by
if the requested code was a PUK: specify a new password or re-
store the former disabled password. See Chapter 4.31.1 for more
information about when you may need to enter the PUK.
Reference
GSM 07.07
Note
• Caution: After entering a password with AT+CPIN all other commands that
need access to data on the SIM card may be blocked for up to 20 seconds!
• Successful PIN authentication only confirms that the entered PIN was rec-
ognized and correct. The output of the result code OK does not necessarily
imply that the mobile is registered to the desired network.
Typical example: PIN was entered and accepted with OK, but the ME fails
to register to the network. This may due to missing network coverage, de-
nied network access with currently used SIM card, no valid roaming agree-
ment between home network and currently available operators etc.
