Phone Basics

Security module

The security module activates your phone when in Globalstar satellite mode. It is located on the lower left side of the front of the phone. The security module that comes with your phone works only with that phone and is not interchangeable.

Caution

Do not remove the security module.

When in Globalstar satellite mode, the security module must be properly installed to make or receive calls. If it is not properly installed, you can only make calls to emergency numbers.

Note

If you use the same phone number (or NAM) for both Globalstar satellite and cellular calls, the security module may also have to be installed for non-emergency cellular calls.

For more information, contact your satellite service provider, who installs and maintains the security module.

Antenna basics

Phone performance depends on the strength of the signal it receives. As you fully extend the cellular antenna or rotate the Globalstar satellite antenna, the signal strength indicator shows the strength of the signal received in that particular antenna position. You cannot make or receive a satellite call with the Globalstar satellite antenna stored.

It is important to use the antennas properly for the best performance. Follow these guidelines for the Globalstar satellite and cellular antennas:

Never hold the phone by the antenna.

Do not use the phone if either antenna is damaged, unless you are using the phone with the car kit’s antenna.

For more information on how to use the antennas, see Preparing for satellite calls, page 2, and Making cellular calls, page 4.
