Caution - Before operating this device, be sure to place the antenna in

the vertical position. This offers the best performance of your modem,
and, at the same time, reduces the risk of possible exposure to
electromagnetic radiation emanating from the antenna

.

The antenna must be maintained at least 4 inches (or 10 cm) from
users and nearby persons to comply with FCC radio frequency
exposure limits (and to reduce the risk of RF radiation) when the
Uniden Data 2000 is in operation.

Uniden Data 2000 Wireless CDPD PC Card

1.1 What is the Uniden Data 2000?

The Uniden Data 2000 is a wireless CDPD (Cellular Digital Packet
Data) PC Card which enables most laptops, hand held computers, and
Personal Digital Assistants with Type II PC Card slots to communicate
with host-based applications such as web servers, intranet servers,
databases, dispatch systems, and other host computer systems. The
Uniden Data 2000 uses the Internet suite of protocols running over the
CDPD system. The product is fully Windows compatible, supporting
Windows 95/98, Windows NT, and Windows CE. It includes a suite of
GUI (Graphical User Interface) utilities to provide the user with
simplified access to operational status and statistics, as well as the
ability to configure, control, and monitor the performance of the
device. The Uniden Data 2000’s compact size makes it an easily
portable communications tool that can be stored conveniently in a
briefcase or purse when not in use.

1.2 What is CDPD?

CDPD or Cellular Digital Packet Data is a wireless, public access,
packet data standard designed to operate over existing analog cellular
phone systems. Since it is designed to use existing cellular phone
systems, CDPD provides a large coverage area. CDPD’s primary benefit
is quick, inexpensive, and efficient transmission of data packets.
Additional benefits include built-in encryption for security (where
applicable); a billing structure which charges for message size rather
than on-line time (depending on individual service provider’s service
plans); forward error correction methods that reduce the effects of
noise and interference on the airlink; and widespread deployment.

1.3 What is the PCMCIA Standard for PC Car ds?

Over the past several years, mobile computers have experienced
explosive growth. While prices have fallen sharply, features are becom­ing more advanced and reliability has been greatly improved. One of
the most notable features of today’s mobile computers is the PC Card
slot. Over the last four years, the personal computer industry has
rapidly adopted the PC Card slot feature, and today nearly 75 percent
of laptops include a PC Card slot. This has been the driving force in the
innovation and development of PC Card technology.

1-2

In 1989, an international standards body and trade association was
founded, called the PCMCIA (Personal Computer Memory Card
International Association.). This organization was founded to establish
standards for Integrated Circuit cards and to promote interchangeability
among mobile computers where ruggedness, low power, and small
size are critical.

Even though PCMCIA is a rather young technology, it has been quickly
adopted by every major personal computer manufacturer in the
world. Since it’s inception, PCMCIA has published a PC Card
Standard which contains all of the physical, electrical and software
specifications for PC Card technology. This standard is in a constant
state of improvement by the PCMCIA technical committee.

Comm Settings

The Comm Settings tab displays which COM Port the Uniden Data
2000 is configured to, as well as the baud rate it is using.

UDConfig searches for the Uniden Data 2000 upon startup. If it finds
the Uniden Data 2000, it ‘remembers’ which COM port, and at which
baud rate it found the Uniden Data 2000. Subsequent executions of
UDConfig will then look for the Uniden Data 2000, starting from the
previously saved settings. If UDConfig does not find the Uniden Data
2000, it begins a search, checking COM1 through COM5, using the
following baud rates: 300, 600, 1200, 2400, 4800, 9600, 14,400, 19,200,
28,800 baud.

When UDConfig searches for the PC Card, the Comm Settings tab
dialog is displayed first, indicating to the user where UDConfig found
the PC Card. If UDConfig is located the Uniden Data 200

0 at its previ-

ously stored location, the Comm Setting tabbed dialog displays last.

Beyond this, there is no particular order to the remaining UDConfig
dialog tabs.

Note: Each time the user switches from one tabbed dialog to
another, the mouse changes to a hourglass icon while UDConfig
loads the parameters from the U

niden Data 2000.

2.11.2 UDInsight

UDInsight provides insight to the user regarding the state and status of
the Uniden Data 2000. The application works when the Uniden Data
2000 is in SLIP/PPP mode and a Winsock is in place and running.
Winsocks include Windows 95/98/NT/CE Dial-up Networking,
Trumpet, and other similar applications resident on a Windows
95/98/NT/CE platform.

When the Uniden Data 2000 is in SLIP/PPP mode and a Winsock is in
place, applications communicate to the Uniden Data 2000 with UDP
over IP packets, and sends a request for information from the Uniden
Data 2000. The Uniden Data 2000 replies with a response that includes
the following data:

channel - Current channel
rssi - Received signal strength indication. Add to -113 to get true

RSSI in dBm

regstate - Registration state. 0= No; 1=Yes
reg_result - Registration result code
spni - Service provider network ID
cell_num - Current cell number
wasi - Wide area service ID
spi - Service provider ID
data_sent - Bytes sent
data_rcvd - Bytes received
active_nei [NEI_LEN] - Current IP address

These packets are sent and received (once every 5 seconds)
depending on the users selected polling rate of UDConfig.

The following dialog box displays when UDInsight is accessed:

▲▲

C.1 About Uniden Data 2000 Software

Uniden Data 2000 software has been factory installed.

In most cases, you will not need to install software in your PC Card,
however, there are some instances when software installation
is required:

● You receive an upgraded version of the software.

● You wish to change the data encryption support. (You

may switch from software that supports data encryption
to a version that does not support data encryption,
and vice-versa.)

The Uniden Data 2000 supports two types of software: data
encryption software (128 bit key and 40 bit key) and non-encryption
software. 128 bit Key Data encryption software can only be used

within the United States and Canada.

To check the software version, use the Code Version display feature of
the UDConfig.

The Uniden Data 2000 software and download utility will be found in
the Uniden Data 2000 Installation and Setup CD-ROM.

If you would like to reload the software and do not have the
Uniden Data 2000 software or setup CD-ROM, contact Uniden
Customer Service directly at 1-888-6-UNIDEN to request a CD-ROM

As mentioned previously, AT commands allow an authorized user to:

Read and modify configuration parameters supported by the Uniden
Data 2000.

● Query status and statistics.

● Change the modem’s operational modes.

This chapter describes the following items, in detail:

● The modem’s Default Value Tables. (MDT, SPDT, UDT)

● The System Table.

● Login and logout procedures.

● All of the available AT Commands supported by the modem.

● Error messages.

D.1 Default Value Tables

Configuration information for the Uniden Data 2000 modem is stored
in three unique default value tables: the Manufacturer’s Default Table
(MDT), the Service Provider’s Default Table (SPDT), and the User’s
Default Table (UDT.) These default value tables are stored in
nonvolatile memory.

Unlike the MDT, SPDT, and UDT, the Current Active Table (CAT)
resides in volatile memory. The CAT contains the set of configuration
parameters that is currently active within the modem. You can load the
configuration information contained in the MDT, SPDT, and UDT to
the Current Active Table, at any time, using the AT command AT
RESETCFG [MDT][SPDT][UDT] or AT&F0 for the UDT.

Each time the modem is powered up, it will attempt to load
configuration information from the UDT to the Current Active Table.
Once the modem is powered off, the information in the Current
Active Table is erased.

▲▲

Uniden Data 2000 Wireless CDPD PC Card

Appendix: AT Commands

D

Uniden Data 2000 Installation and Operation Manual D-1

▲▲

Uniden Data 2000 Wireless CDPD PC Card

Most of the configuration changes you make using AT commands, are
made to the Current Active Table only. (The only exception is the AT
SLI SLIP [MDT][SPDT][UDT] command which automatically saves the
changes to the default table you have defined.) Any changes made to
the CAT can be saved to a particular default table by typing in the AT
command AT SAVECFG [MDT] [SPDT][UDT] or AT&W for the UDT.

The SPDT and UDT contain the same settings as the MDT when
shipped from the factory.

The following table lists all of the configuration parameters that are
stored in the MDT, UDT, and SPDT, as well as their default values.

Setting Default Value

Baud Rate 9600 bps

Statistics 0 (statistics disabled)

Auto Registration 1 (true)

Compression 1 (true)

SPNI 0 (accept all)

WASI 0 (accept all)

SPI 0 (accept all)

Side Preference 3 (side A preferred)

Active NEI 1

Mode AT command mode

STS Update Interval 60 sec

Detailed information regarding each default table is described in the
following sections.

D.1.1 Manufacturer’s Default Table (MDT)

The Manufacturer’s Default Table (MDT) contains the configuration
information defined by the manufacturer.

The values in the MDT can be read by any user, but can be modified
only by Uniden service personnel using a login with a MDT password.

D-2

D.1.2 Service Provider’s Default Table (SPDT)

The Service Provider’s Default Table (SPDT) contains configuration
information restricted by your local service provider’s CDPD network.
Each of the parameters in the SPDT can be read by any user, but
modified only by an authorized user.

To set the configuration parameters for the SPDT, take the
following steps:

1. Contact your service provider directly for specific
configuration values restricted by their CDPD network.

2. Call Uniden customer service at 1-888-6-UNIDEN to receive
the SPDT password. Once you receive the SPDT password
from Uniden, you are solely responsible for it’s protection and
distribution. U

niden is not liable for the protection and
distribution of the SPDT password once it has been passed on
to the user. It is strongly recommended that you keep the
SPDT password in a secure location.

Take the following steps to modify the SPDT:

1. Login using the SPDT password.

2. Change the values in the CAT using appropriate
AT commands.

3. Save changes to the SPDT by typing in the command AT
SAVECFG SPDT.

4. Logout.

For login and logout procedures, see the section titled E.4 Login and
Logout Procedures, in this chapter.

D.1.3 User’s Default Table (UDT)

The User’s Default Table (UDT) contains configuration information
defined by the user. To change the UDT parameters, make your
configuration changes to the CAT, then save the information from the
CAT to the UDT by typing in the command AT SAVECFG UDT.

Note: You can type in the command AT RESETCFG MDT or
AT&F0 followed by the command AT SAVECFG UDT or
AT&W0, at any time, to reset the UDT to the factory default state.

Important: Editing the UDT does not require
a password.

D.2 System Table

The System Table contains specific configuration parameters which are
preserved during the power cycle. Unlike settings in the modem’s
default value tables (MDT, SPDT, UDT), these values cannot be
restored to their original settings once they have been changed.

The following table lists all of the configuration parameters stored in
the System Table:

Settings Default Values

supported by the Uniden Data 2000 modem. Please note the
following:

● When typing in AT commands, it is recommended, but not

mandatory, that you insert at least one space after typing AT
and between each parameter. Multiple spaces are acceptable.
(The space after the AT is helpful for automated parsing.)

● AT commands are NOT case sensitive.

● In the tables on the following pages, all parameters shown in

[ ] are optional. All parameters shown in < > are required.

● It is unnecessary to login to use AT commands except to save

changes to the MDT or SPDT.

● Any command which requires a modem reset to become

effective is indicated in boldface type.

● This document assumes that the reader has general

CDPD knowledge.

D.4 Login and Logout Procedures

It is necessary to login before saving changes to the SPDT.

● To login, type in the command AT LOGIN, then enter the

SPDT password.

Note: Contact UNIDEN at 1-888-6-UNIDEN to access the SPDT
