3.7 Hot Key Dial Source List
The source for Hot Key Dial Numbers is normally ‘Phonebook’ or ‘Service Dial Numbers’. For some OEMs it may be a
requirement to store these numbers in the EEPROM. When the source is the EEPROM and the telephone software is updated,
the source numbers may be lost. Also, if the user changes the source of the Hot Key Dial numbers, it will not be possible to
redirect the source back to the EEPROM. However, in the event that an OEM would like the Hot Key Dial source to be stored
in the EEPROM, it is unlikely that the user will have the option to change the Hot Key Dial source.
It is possible to operate all GSM telephones in the same way using the Public MMI. The following operations will work with all
GSM telephones. However, this information is restricted to those operations that are supported by GD30 and GD50 telephones.
The * and # in the following procedures should be replaced by * and #, respectively. Also <SND> and <END> should be
replaced with D and E keys.

3.13SIM Personalisation
3.13.1Introduction
SIM personalisation will limit the use of the telephone to a single SIM, a SIM supplied by one Network/Sub-network/Service
Provider or a SIM purchased by a company (corporation). If a personalised GD30/GD50 contains a SIM that is from a different
source it will display the message “SIM ERROR” when switched on. This personalisation of GD30/GD50 is sometimes referred
to as SIM lock or SIM latch.
3.13.2Testing
To test a personalised GD30/GD50, when the user has not supplied the SIM, a SIM configured for test purposes (e.g. test SIM
or soft SIM) should be used. The mobile will recognise that the SIM is for testing purposes only and operate as normal.
3.13.3Personalisation Function
Personalisation is activated during manufacture and then enabled at a later stage. Enabling/disabling is available by entering
a special key sequence immediately after power on. Once the enable/disable menu is shown it is possible to select the type of
personalisation. When personalisation is enabled it is only possible to disable it if the mobile contains an illegal SIM and the
sixteen digit Control Key (CK) is known. When enabled the CK is withheld from the user and cannot be read, for security
reasons.
There are two special key sequences to enter the enable/disable menu:

TEST AND MEASUREMENT
6.5.1 Ramping Gain
The carrier power must be measured and calibrated for each power level at channel 62.
NOTE:To ensure that the telephone operates within set SAR margins, Panasonic recommends that a power meter
capable of measurement to an accuracy of ±0.2dBm (Hewlett Packard HP8990 or equivalent) is used when
calibrating power levels. Use of a less accurate power meter may result in the phone failing to meet SAR
standards.
To calibrate the ramping gain, first switch the unit into Test Mode (Section6.3).
This procedure must be followed for all power levels PL5 to PL19, for low, middle and high channels for GSM 900. GSM 1800
shall be calibrated for all power levels PL0 to PL15 for top middle and bottom channels.
1.Set the Channel box controls to Channel62 at Power Level14, normal burst modulated with random data as follows:

regulated power supplies and 82Ohm resistor required to calibrate previous mobile phone products.
Preliminaries
1.Connect the mobile phone, test battery, BCVCU and Interface Box as shown in the diagram below.
Figure 6.32: Battery Calibration Test Connections
2.Set the Interface Box to output to 7.2V. Leave the power supply switched OFF and set the MODE or EXTPWR switch to
OFF.
Voltage Calibration
1.Set the BCVCU to 4.1V (centre position on switch) and set the 82Ohm switch to OFF.
2.Select and run the Channel Box software in ‘Test Mode’.
3.Press [F10] and power the phone on. "TEST SET TEST MODE" should be displayed in the phone display.
4.Press [F4] on the PC. Go to, and select: "VIEW ADC LINES".
5.Look at ADIN1 (BAT VOLT) reading. This reading is "BAT VOLT HIGH". If reading is outside the range 803 and 723, then
there is a fault and further investigation is required. Otherwise, record the value for later use.
6.Set the BCVCU output to 3.0V.
7.Press "[Y]" [enter] on the PC to re-read ADC Data.
8.Look at ADIN1 (BAT VOLT) reading again. This reading is "BAT VOLT LOW". If the reading is not within the range 518
and 598, then there is a fault and further investigation is required. Otherwise, record the value for later use.
9.Press [N] (in repeat yes/no box), then [enter].
10. Press [F6]. Go to, and select: "TRIM Other". Go to, and select: "BAT VOLT HIGH". Enter value from step5 above.
11. Press [F6]. Go to, and select: "TRIM Other" again. Go to, and select: "BAT VOLT LOW". Enter value from step8 above.
Set the BCVCU output to 4.1volts.
Temperature Calibration
1.Ensure that the BCVCU output is set to 4.1V.
2.If the ADC data is not already being displayed, press [F4], "VIEW ADC LINES", [enter].
3.Look at the value for ADIN3 (BAT TEMP). If the value is outside the range 390 and 428, then there is a fault and further
investigation is required. Otherwise, calculate the difference between the reading and the theoretical value of 409. Record
this value for use below.
4.Press [N] (in repeat yes/no box), then [enter].
5.Press [F6]. Go to, and select: "TRIM Other" again.
6.Go to, and select: "BAT TEMP". Enter the value recorded in step3.

TEST AND MEASUREMENT
Charging Calibration
NOTE:The charging calibration procedure requires an interface cable (part number JT00004), modified as shown in the
diagram below, to allow EXT_PWR to be fed via pin9 of the D-TYpe connector to the phone connector.
Figure 6.33: Modification to Interface Cable JT00004
1.Ensure that the BCVCU output is set to 4.1V output and the MODE or EXT_PWR switch set to ON. Set the 82Ohms
switch ON.
2.Press {shift}+[F4].
3.Go to, and select: "Set DAC Data". Type a value of 714, [enter].
4.Using arrows ↑↓, highlight "Control out". Use ←→arrows to highlight and select "CRG ON". (“ACK” should be displayed
on the PC screen. If it is not displayed, then it may be necessary to re-power the telephone and start the Charging
Calibration procedure again from step1.)
5.Disconnect VBAT by switching the BCVCU output to OFF.
6.Measure VBAT voltage at the test battery. If the voltage is inside the range 4.1V±5mV then go to step11 below.
Otherwise, calculate the difference thus:- (measured voltage - 4.1)/0.0057 = difference.
For example, for a measured voltage of 4.08V the difference will be: (4.08-4.1)/0.0057=-3.5
7.Press {shift}+[F4].
8.Go to, and select: "Set DAC Data". Enter the value calculated by subtracting the difference value recorded in step6 from
the DAC Data value (714). This value must be an integer.
As an example, the example from step6 would produce a value of:714-(-3.5)=717.5 or 718 .
9.Repeat steps6 to 8 until the measured voltage is 4.1V±5mV
10. If the final value for DAC Data is outside the range 614±814, then there is a fault and further investigation is required.
Otherwise store the value as described below.
11. Press [F6]; Go to, and select:- "Trim Other";
12. Go to, and select:- "DAC Reference"; Enter the final DAC data value from step10.
13. Press {shift}+[F4].
14. Go to, and select:- "Set DAC Data".
15. Enter:- (value stored in step12) - 200.
16. Press [F4].
17. Go to, and select:- View ADC lines.
18. Read value for ADIN1 ("BAT VOLT").
19. If ["BAT VOLT HIGH" (from Voltage Calibration, step5) - value read above], is inside the range 255-171, then go to
step20 (below) to store value. Otherwise there is a fault and further investigation is required.
20. Press [N] (in repeat yes/no box), then [enter]. Press [F6]; Highlight and select "Trim Other".
21. Highlight and select "DAC Step".
22. Enter value obtained in step19.
23. Press {shift}+[F4].
24. Select: "Set DAC Data".
25. Re-enter original value from step10 (i.e. present value +200).
26. Press [F4].
27. Highlight, and select:- "View ADC Lines".
28. Read ADIN5 (CRG CURRENT) value and record it as "Total current".
