2.9 SIM Interface Characteristics
The
Telit GT863-PY support plug-in type Subscriber Identity Modules (SIM) according to
GSM11.14 Phase 2 – with 3 Volts supply ONLY.
For the technical characteristics of the SIM, refer to the documentation supplied together with the
SIM by the Mobile Network Operator or Service Provider.
The
Telit GT863-PY has an enhanced SIM card reader with a sensor that allows detecting of a
“hot” removal of the SIM, therefore the SIM can be extracted and re-inserted while the module is
still on.
NOTE: On the
Telit GT863-PY the sensing of a hot removal of the SIM is not supported during
power saving mode (AT+CFUN=5).
2.9.1 Insertion and Removal of the SIM
The terminal has a built-in toggle spring (Push-Push) SIM holder, accessible through a slot in the
panel at the antenna side of the housing.
Do not insert or remove the SIM when the product is in power saving mode.
To insert and remove the SIM, a plastic strip of the same width of the SIM and appropriate length
of ca. 50-100 mm shall be prepared as a tool. The figure printed on the panel shows the position of
the cut edge and the direction, how the SIM shall be inserted.
Insert the SIM and push it with the tool slightly inside until the spring snaps in. Removing the tool,
the SIM shall remain inside the GT863-PY. For removing the SIM, push the tool slightly inside until
the spring is released so that it pushes the SIM outside when the tool is retracted.
