GENERAL SAFETY INFORMATION
PORTABLE OPERATION:
DO NOT hold the radio so that the aerial is very close to, or touching, exposed parts of the body, especially the
face or eyes whilst transmitting. The radio will perform best if it is held in the same manner as you would hold
a ‘land’ telephone handset, with the aerial angled up and over your shoulder.
DO NOT operate the portable phone in an aircraft. Switch off your telephone. The use of a cellular telephone
in an aircraft may be dangerous to the operation of the aircraft, disrupt the Cellular Network, and is illegal.
Failure to observe this instruction may lead to a suspension or denial of Cellular Telephone Service to the
offender, or legal action, or both.
MOBILE/PORTABLE OPERATION - Telephone use in Vehicles:
All equipment must be properly grounded according to installation instructions for safe operation.
Users are advised to turn off their equipment when at a refuelling point.
Safety is every drivers business. Cellular telephones should only be used in situations in which the driver
considers it safe to do so.
GENERAL:

TRANSCEIVER LABELLING
1. INTRODUCTION
Each Motorola GSM transceiver will be labelled with
various number configurations. The following information
shows and explains the common labelling titles
2. TITLE EXPLANATIONS
2.3 MSN
The Mechanical Serial Number (MSN) is an individual
number, uniquely identifying the unit. The MSN will remain
the same throughout the units life, even if the main board is
replaced. Because the MSN is unique to the whole phone, it
is often used for logging and tracking purposes by Motorola
National Service Centres on EPPRS. The MSN is divided
into the sections shown in Figure 1.
2.4 CEPT GSM
This is the International Mobile Station Equipment Identity
(IMEI) number. The IMEI is held in the logic circuitry.
If the main board is replaced then the units IMEI will change,
3 digits 1 digit 2 digits 4 digits

therefore the units labelling should be updated with the new
IMEI. An IMEI uniquely identifies a mobile station
equipment to the system, and is divided into the sections
shown in Figure 2.
2.5 REV S/H
This configuration consists of two blocks of two digits, and
denotes the software and hardware versions within the unit.
The first two digits correspond to the software version, and
the last two digits correspond to the hardware version. If a
version update is carried out on the unit, the corresponding
change information should be made apparent on the
labelling.
2.6 MODEL
The model number defines the type of product. Each product
type is issued a common model number.

1. INTRODUCTION
The Motorola StarTAC130 personal cellular telephones are
designed to work with the mini Subscriber Identity Module
(SIM). The SIM card contains all the personal data required
to access GSM services. Data held by the SIM card
includes:-
•International Mobile Subscriber Identity
•Temporary Mobile Subscriber Identity
•Home system
•Services subscribed to
•PIN and unblocking codes
•Call barring codes
The SIM card may also be capable of storing phone
numbers, names, and messages.
2. SIM CARD INSERTION/REMOVAL
The SIM card must be inserted into the unit correctly so that
the card can be read, and the data checked for validity,
before operation on the system will be enabled. The card
contains all of the user’s personal identification numbers
and details of the system the phone operates on.
The miniature SIM card is placed in the tray and the tray slide
into the side of the phone. There is only one way for the
miniature SIM to fit because of the .shape of it. The tray
should be completely and secuerly seated in the slot on the
Figure 1. Inserting the Test SIM card
side of the phone.. To remove the SIM card from the unit,
pull the sliding mini SIM tray sideways away from the
phone. The User Guidecontains full information about
inserting and removing the mini SIM card.
3. SECURITY INFORMATION
To stop unauthorized personnel using your SIM card, the
option of using a Personal Identity Number (PIN) is
available. When enabled the option requires (on power up) a
verification number to be entered via the unit’s keypad,
before the card can be used. Three attempts to enter the
correct PIN may be made. If after the three entries the correct
PIN has not been entered, the card becomes blocked. To
unblock the card an unblocking/super PIN code must be
entered. Ten attempts to enter the correct unblocking code
are permitted, if after ten attempts the correct code has not
been entered, the SIM card is corrupted and becomes useless.
Another option available for the SIM card is call barring. If
subscribed to, the call barring of incoming and/or outgoing
calls may be accomplished by entering a special key
sequence. The key sequence includes a “barring code”,
which determines the type of restriction incorporated, and a
password to validate the request. The initial password is
provided when you subscribe to the service. The password
can be changed by entering a set key sequence.
A valid miniature sized SIM card can be used in any working
GSM transceiver, regardless of the manufacturer, which is
compatible with the miniature size SIM card. To protect the
actual unit from unauthorized use, a lock function on the
hardware is available. When enabled, this function requires
that a three or four digit unlock code be entered, via the unit’s
keypad, before normal operation of the transceiver can take
place. The lock code can be changed by entering a set key
sequence.
Note: Further information on set key sequences can be
derived from the unit’s user guide.

3. TESTING PROCEDURE
All information required to perform the desired tests and measurements should be obtained from the communication analyser’s
user manual.
Ensure that the unit being tested is capable of both initiating a call to the analyser, and receiving a call from the analyser.
Confirm that the displayed Temporary Mobile Subscriber Identity (TMSI), International Mobile Equipment Identity (IMEI),
and dialled number are correct. When a call is in progress the following tests should be carried out on channels 1, 62 and
124. The recorded results must be within the acceptable stated limits, if the unit being tested passes all the tests it should be
taken as functioning correctly. If the unit being tested fails to conform with any of the expected measurements, it should be
taken as faulty and repaired accordingly. The following table states the required tests and tolerances.

PERSONALITY TRANSFER
1. INTRODUCTION
Personality Transfers are required when a phone is Express
Exchanged or when the main board is replaced. The
different variations (languages, features) of the StarTAC130
personal cellular telephones requires that each main board
must be configured correctly to ensure that the unit takes on
the correct personality required. Therefore, when a main
board is replaced its personality must be transferred into the
new board, so that it functions correctly in the customers
unit. There are two possible methods of transfer.
•Normal Transfer, and;
•Master Transfer
If the defective unit powers up, then the Normal Transfer
method should be followed. If the faulty unit will not power
up, then a Master transfer will be required to configure the
replacement board, once installed.
2. NORMAL TRANSFER
This method allows the personality, selected features and
stored phone numbers of a defective radio, to be transferred
into a repaired radio. Data is transferred from the donor unit
into the recipient unit using a Transfer card (Part No
5104025D03). The instruction steps should be followed in
order.
Step 1. Insert the Transfer card into the slot located on
the back of the donor unit. Turn the donor unit
on, the display should show ‘Clone’.
Step 2. The donor unit is now in the cloning mode, and
ready to transfer the first block of data.
Step 3. Enter 021# via the unit’s keypad. This command
will cause the first block of information to be
uploaded into the Transfer card.
Step 4. While data transfer is taking place between the
unit and the card, ‘Please Wait’ will be
displayed. After a short period of time, if the
data transfer has been completed correctly,
‘Clone’ will re-appear in the donor unit’s
display.
Step 5. When the first data block has been successfully
uploaded, remove the card from the donor.
Step 6. Insert the Transfer card into the slot located on
the back of the recipient unit. Turn the recipient
unit on, the display should show ‘Clone’.
Step 7. The recipient unit is now in the cloning mode,
and ready to receive the first block of data.
Step 8. Enter 03# via the unit’s keypad. This command
will cause the recipient unit to download the first
data block from the Transfer card.
Step 9. While data transfer is taking place between the
card and the unit, ‘Please Wait’ will be
displayed. After a short period of time, if the
data transfer has been completed correctly,
‘Clone’ will re-appear in the recipient unit’s
display.
Step 10. The second data block must now be transferred.
Repeat steps 1 to 9, but enter 022# to program
the second data block into the Transfer card.
Step 11. The third data block must now be transferred.
Repeat steps 1 to 9, but enter 025# to program
the third data block into the Transfer card.
Step 12. When the third block of data has been
transferred successfully, remove the Transfer
card and check the repaired radio functions
correctly. See page 19 for further information.

3. MASTER TRANSFER
This method of transfer should only be followed when the
defective unit will not power up, or complete a Normal
Transfer. As mentioned earlier, there may be different
variations (OEM looks for example) of the Motorola
StarTAC130 cellular telephone, each model requiring the
main board to be configured differently for correct
operation. When carrying out a Master Transfer it is not
possible to transfer the customers selected features or stored
phone numbers, only the model personality can be
programmed into the repaired unit.
Each different version of the StarTAC130 cellular
telephone, requires its own Master Transfer card which
contains essential set up information. Master SIM cards may
be ordered pre-programmed, or created from a Normal
Transfer card. The instruction steps should be followed in
order.
Step 1. Select the required Master SIM card.
Step 2. Insert the Master Transfer card into the slot
located on the back of the repaired unit. Turn the
unit on, the display should show ‘Clone’.
Step 3. Enter 03# via the unit’s keypad. This command
will cause the configuration data to be
downloaded from the Master Transfer card.
Step 4. While data transfer is taking place between the
card and the unit ‘Please Wait’ will be
displayed. After a short period of time, if the
data transfer has been completed correctly,
‘Clone’ will re-appear in the recipient unit’s
display.
Step 5. When the data block has been transferred
successfully, remove the Master Transfer card
and check the radio functions correctly. See
page 18 for details.
At no point should either 021#, 022# or 025# be entered
while a Master Transfer card is in the radio. If either of the
stated commands are entered, the master information on the
card will be erased. To prevent the above happening the card
can be locked by entering 06# via the unit’s keypad, with the
card inserted. Unlock the card by entering 07#.
Note: If during either transfer process a problem arises, an
error message will be displayed. If the Transfer card
is removed before the data transfer is completed
‘Bad Data on Card’ will appear in the display. If
either situation arises, the process should be
repeated.
4. MASTER SIM CARD CREATION
When required a Master SIM card can be created by:-
Step 1. Insert a Transfer card into a unit which is
already configured in the desired way. Turn the
unit on, the display should show ‘Clone’.
Step 2. Enter 024# via the unit’s keypad. This command
copies the personality information in the unit
onto the Transfer card to create a Master
Transfer card.
Step 3. While data transfer is taking place between the
unit and the card ‘Please Wait’ will be
displayed. After a short period of time, if the
data transfer has been completed correctly,
‘Clone’ will re-appear in the recipient unit’s
display.
Step 4. A Master Transfer card has now been created.
Lock the card to prevent accidental information
erasure (see previous section). Remove the card
from the unit, and store until required.
