PHONECELL SX3e AMPS 9 USER MANUAL
Step 3. NAM/Phone Number Setup
You can program the Phonecell SX3 with an ordinary tone-dial (DTMF) telephone,
which is sometimes referred to as a POTS (Plain Old Telephone Service) phone.
NOTE: this programming mode is not accessible while you're in a call.
Step #1 - Pick up the POTS handset and listen for a tone (either a steady dial
tone or a beeping no-service tone).
Step #2 - Enter the Master-Programming mode by pressing:
#
*
0
*
1 2 3 4 4 3 2 1 #
The dial tone should change to a different, steady “Programming” tone
and the LED indicator on the front of your Phonecell should blink
alternately RED and GREEN to indicate that you’re now in the
programming mode. You now have two minutes to begin the
programming steps below.
Step #3 - Press: #

The spaces represent your 10-digit telephone number. (This is also
called a Mobile Identification Number, or MIN.) If you enter the number
incorrectly, you'll hear three short tones followed by the programming
tone; if correct, you'll hear the programming tone again.
Step #4 - Press: #

The spaces represent your 1- to 5-digit System Identifier (SID), which
ranges from 0 to 32,767. This information identifies your cellular ser-
vice provider. (For example, to set up 555, enter #*5*555#.) If you enter
the SID incorrectly, you'll hear three short tones followed by the pro-
gramming tone; if correct, you'll hear the programming tone again.
NOTE: depending upon whether you enter an odd SID or an even SID,
the Phonecell will automatically set the remaining NAM parameters to
AMPS standards – as shown in the table below.
If you need to override any of the settings, continue with the following
steps (#5–8). Otherwise, hang up. The flashing LED indicator will
become solid GREEN. Phone number setup is complete.

IMPORTANT!
If your Phonecell was NOT pre-programmed for NAM (Number
Assignment Module/Phone Number) information, follow the
