Fields

MS Id

This field is used to enter the identification number of the mobile station. The MS Id field has two fields. The content of the lower field is automatically updated upon successful completion of a mobile station registration.

The upper field is a one-of-many selection field and is used to select the format for entering the identification number. The :NMODe command is used to set the upper field. Two formats are available: Phone Num for entering a 10 digit phone number or MIN2 MIN1 for entering the mobile identification number.

The lower field is a numeric entry field and is used to enter the identification number in the format selected using the upper field.

There are two formats which can be used to enter the identification number in the lower field.

The identification number can be entered as the 10 digit phone number in decimal (i.e. 5095551212). The :PNUMber command is used to enter the 10 digit phone number.

The identification number can be entered as the mobile identification number (MIN) in hexadecimal (i.e. AAABBBBBB). The MIN number is entered as the 3 character MIN2 (AAA) followed by the 6 character MIN1 (BBBBBB). The :MINumber command is used to enter the MIN number.

The formats are coupled, that is, if the Phone Num format is selected and the 10 digit phone number is entered, the MIN2 MIN1 information is automatically updated, and vice versa.

NOTE:

The preset values for the MS Id fields are:

Phone Num = 1111111111

MIN2 MIN1 = 000000400

An all zero MIN number (000000000), which does not represent a valid phone number, will convert to the following phone number: 111111?111.

The query form of the programming commands (that is, the ? form) can be used to interrogate the contents of each field.
