27.19 Phase identification
3GPP51.010-1Mobile Station (MS) conformance specificationPart 1: Conformance specificationTS
27.19.1 Definition
The phase of the SIM is indicated in the Elementary File EFPHASE. This allows the ME to identify the phase of the SIM and adapt its functionality accordingly.
27.19.2 Conformance requirement
The phase of the card shall be determined as part of the initialization procedure.
Reference:
3GPP TS 11.11, subclauses 10.2.16 and 11.2.1.
27.19.3 Test purpose
To verify that the ME requests the SIM phase as part of the initialization procedure.

27.19.4.1 Initial conditions
The ME is connected to the SIM simulator, and powered off.
The default values are used.
27.19.4.2 Procedure
