This EF contains information concerning the mode of operation according to the type of USIM, such as normal (to be used by PLMN subscribers for 3GPP network operations), type approval (to allow specific use of the ME during type approval procedures of e.g. the radio equipment), cell testing (to allow testing of a cell before commercial use of this cell), manufacturer specific (to allow the ME manufacturer to perform specific proprietary auto-test in its ME during e.g. maintenance phases).
It also provides an indication about how some ME features shall work during normal operation as well as information about the length of the MNC, which is part of the International Mobile Subscriber Identity (IMSI) if service
No. 130 is
"not available".

Contents:
This data item commences with the TS-Service-Centre-Address as specified in
TS 24.011. The bytes immediately following the TS-Service-Centre-Address contain an appropriate short message TPDU as specified in
TS 23.040, with identical coding and ordering of parameters.
Coding:
According to
TS 23.040 and
TS 24.011. Any TP-message reference contained in an UE originated message stored in the USIM, shall have a value as follows:
Value of the TP-message-reference:
-
Message to be sent: 'FF'.
-
Message sent to the network: the value of TP-Message-Reference used in the message sent to the network.
Any bytes in the record following the TPDU shall be filled with 'FF'.
It is possible for a TS-Service-Centre-Address of maximum permitted length, e.g. containing more than 18 address digits, to be associated with a maximum length TPDU such that their combined length is 176 bytes. In this case the ME shall store in the USIM the TS-Service-Centre-Address and the TPDU in bytes 2 to 176 without modification, except for the last byte of the TPDU, which shall not be stored.
