16. SIM Application Toolkit (SAT) Commands
This chapter offers a brief reference of commands and responses related to the TC63's SIM Application Toolkit
(SAT) implementation. Detailed information is available with the document "Remote-SAT User Guide" [4]. Please
contact the Wireless Modules Application Engineering Department at Siemens AG for details.
ETSI specification GSM 11.14 [24] defines SAT in detail.
SAT allows for the execution of applications provided by a Subsciber Identity Module (SIM). Usually SIM cards
are used for storing GSM network provider and user specific data, e.g. phonebook entries and Short Messages
(SMS). However, a SIM card may also hold a SIM Application.
Since the TC63 has SAT functionality it is able to execute the commands issued by applications implemented
on a network provider specific SIM card.
Two groups of commands are used between the ME and the SIM Application:
• Proactive Commands are issued to the TC63's SAT from the SIM Application, such as "DISPLAY TEXT".
• Envelope Commands are responded to the SIM Application from the TC63, such as "MENU SELECTION".

16.1 AT^SSTA SAT Interface Activation

Syntax
Command Description
The read command can be used to request the current operating status and the used alphabet of the Remote-
SAT interface.
The write command is used to activate the AT command interface of the SIM Application Toolkit in the TC63 and
needs to be issued after every power on. However, removing and inserting the SIM does not affect the activation
status.
SAT commands which are not using the AT interface (non MMI related SAT commands , e.g. PROVID E LOCAL
INFORMATION) could be executed without activating Remote-SAT.
