5.6AT+CPWD Change Password

AT+CPWD allows to define a new password for a password protected <facility> lock function. Each password is a string of digits, the length of which varies with the associated <facility>. The test command returns a list of pairs which represent the available facilities and the maximum length of the associated password. See AT commands AT+CLCK and AT^SLCK for more information on the various lock features.

Specifically the command can be used to

•change PIN1 or PIN2,

•change the password supplied from your provider for the "call barring" supplementary service,

•set individual phone security passwords,

•enter the unblocking key (Master Phone Code) to restore a disabled "PS" password.

To delete a password use the following syntax: at+cpwd=<facility>,<old password>

Parameter Description

Phone security locks set by client or factory:

Primarily intended for the client to take safety precautions, passwords "SC" (SIM PIN) and "P2" (SIM PIN2) are usually predefined, but can be configured individually. The password for lock facility "PS" may also be factory set.

"SC"	SIM PIN. SIM requests password upon ME power-up and when this lock com-
	mand is issued.
	If incorrectly entered three times, the SIM PUK is required to perform authen-
	tication. Input of the SIM PUK password is possible only with AT command
	AT+CPIN or ATD. For further details please refer to Section 5.1.1, What to do
	if PIN or password authentication fails?.
