MOTOROLA ANALOGUE PHONES SECRETS CODE

Motorola Analogue Phones


MOTOROLA PROGRAMMING INSTRUCTIONS
NOTES: Some units have dual NAM's.
The ESN prefix is 130 decimal, 82 hex.

Determine which access sequence to use:

HAND HELD PORtable MODELS

If the phone has a FCN button and no MENU button use sequence 1.
If the phone has no FCN button use sequence 2.
If the phone has a MENU button and a FCN button use sequence 4.

INSTALLED MOBILE PHONES AND TRANSPORtable MODELS

If the phone has no FCN button and no RCL button use sequence 3.
If the phone has a FCN button use sequence 4.
If the phone has a MEM button use sequence 5.
If the phone has a RCL button and no FCN button use sequence 6.

SEQUENCE# ACCESS CODE

1 FCN (SECURITY CODE TWICE) RCL
2 STO # (SECURITY CODE TWICE) RCL
3 CTL 0 (SECURITY CODE TWICE) *
4 FCN 0 (SECURITY CODE TWICE) RCL
5 FCN 0 (SECURITY CODE TWICE) MEM
6 CTL 0 (SECURITY CODE TWICE) RCL

The default security code is 000000. The CTL (control) button is the single black button on the side of the handset.

NAM programing:

1. Turn the power on.
2. Within ten seconds enter the access sequence as determined above.
3. The phone should now show "01" in the left of the display, this is the first programing entry step number. If it does not the security code is incorrect, or the programing lock-out counter has been exceeded. In either case you can still program the unit by following the steps under TEST MODE PROGRAMING below.
4. The * key is used to increment each step:
Each time you press * the display will increment from the step number, displayed on the left, to the data stored in that step, displayed on the right. When the data is displayed make any necessary changes and press * to increment to the next step number.
5. The SND key is used to complete and exit programing when any STEP NUMBER is displayed.
If you have enabled the second phone number bit in step 10 below then pressing SND will switch to NAM 2. Steps 01 thru 06, 09 and 10 will repeat for NAM 2, the step number will be followed by a "2" to indicate NAM two.
6. The CLR key will revert the display to the previously stored data.
7. The # key will abort programing at any time.

PROGRAMING DATA:

STEP# #OF DIGITS/RANGE DESCRIPTION

02 3 DIGITS AREA CODE
03 7 DIGITS TEL NUMBER
04 2 DIGITS STATION CLASS MARK
05 2 DIGITS ACCESS OVERLOAD CLASS
06 2 DIGITS GROUP ID (10 IN USA)
07 6 DIGITS SECURITY CODE
08 3 DIGITS LOCK CODE
09 0333 OR 0334 INITIAL PAGING CHANNEL
10 6 DIGIT BINARY OPTION PROGRAMING (SEE NOTE 1)
11 3 DIGIT BINARY OPTION PROGRAMING (SEE NOTE 2)

NOTES:

Take care with Motorola's use of "0" and "1". Some options use "0" to enable, some use "1".

1. This is a 6 digit binary field used to select the following options:

Digit 1: Internal handset speaker, 0 to enable.
Digit 2: Local Use Mark, 0 or 1.
Digit 3: MIN Mark, 0 or 1.
Digit 4: Auto Recall, always set to 1 (enabled).
Digit 5: Second phone number (not all phones), 1 to enable.
Digit 6: Diversity (Two antennas, not all phones), 1 to enable.

2. This is a 3 digit binary field used to select the following options:

Digit 1: Continuous DTMF, 1 to enable.
Digit 2: Transportable Ringer/Speaker, 0=Transducer, 1=Handset.
Digit 3: 8 hour time out in transportable mode, 0 to enable.

TEST MODE ACCESS:

INSTALLED MOBILE PHONES AND TRANSPORtable MODELS

To enter test mode on units with software version 85 and higher you must short pins 20 and 21 of the transceiver data connector. An RS232 break out box is useful for this, or construct a test mode adaptor from standard Radio Shack parts.

For MINI TR or Silver Mini Tac transceivers (smaller data connector) you can either short pins 9 and 14 or simply use a paper clip to short the hands free microphone connector.

HAND HELD PORtable MODELS:

There are two basic types of Motorola portable phones, the Micro-Tac series "Flip" phones, and the larger 8000 and Ultra Classic phones. Certain newer Motorola and Pioneer badged Micro-Tac phones do not have a "flip", but follow the same procedure as the Micro-Tac.

8000 & ULTRA CLASSIC SERIES:

If you have an 8000 series phone determine the "type" before trying to enter test mode. On the back of the phone, or on the bottom in certain older models, locate the F09... number this is the series number. If the FOURTH digit of this number is a "D" you CAN NOT program the unit through test mode, a Motorola RTL4154/RTL4153 programer is required to make any changes to this unit.

Having determined that you do not have a "D" series phone the following procedure is used to access test mode:

Remove the battery from the phone and locate the 12 contacts at the top near the antenna connector. These contacts are numbered 1 through 12 from top left through bottom right. Pin 6, top right, is the Manual Test Mode Pin. You must ground this pin while powering up the phone. Pin 7 (lower left) or the antenna connector should be used for ground. Follow one of these procedures to gain access to pin 6:

1. The top section of the battery that covers the contacts contains nothing but air. By careful measuring you can drill a small hole in the battery to gain access to pin 6, alternately simply cut the top off the battery with a hack saw. Having gained access use a paper clip to short pin six to the antenna connector ground while powering up the phone.
2. If you do not want to "destroy" a battery you can apply an external 7.5 volts to the + and - connectors at the bottom of the phone, ground pin 6 while powering up the phone as above.
3. You can also try soldering or jamming a small jumper between pins 6 and 7 (top right to lower left), or between pin 6 and the antenna connector housing ground. Carefully replace the battery and power up the phone. Use caution with this method not to short out any other pin.
4. A cigarette lighter adaptor, if you have one, also makes a great test mode adaptor as it can be disassembled to give you easier access to pin 6. Many are pre marked, or even have holes in the right location. This is because they are often stamped from the same mold that the manufacturer uses for making hands free adaptor kits and these kits require access to the phone's connectors.
