a cell neighbor (see the example under Cell nghbr), so it must be a neighbor of cell 03 or 04.

System logical identifier (LID)

This setting allows you to change the code by which the system identifies itself to portables and which the portables use to request service from the system. The default setting is randomly generated by the system at start-up. When the system logical identifier (LID) is changed, all portables must register again.

When changing the system LID, you can enter any hexadecimal number between 0500 and FFFE. (Hexadecimal characters can only range from 0 to 9 and A to E.)

Changing system LID de-registers all portables.

If you change the system LID, you invalidate the registration of all the portables in the system. Portables must be re-registered before they can be used.

There are only two reasons to modify the system LID.

•The site has multiple systems, and you want users to be able to move from system to system without changing slots on their portable telephones. All systems must be set to the same system LID.

•Two systems that are located near each other were accidentally assigned the same system LID. Users of one system can access the other system. (This highly unlikely situation could occur, for example, in an office building occupied by multiple organizations.)

Use ≠and CHANGE to modify the System LID.
