Introduction
The Security Client ― Symbian software is
installed on a Sony Ericsson P800, P900,
or P910 cellular phone. When used with a
CommerceGuard™ Portable Reader Unit,
it can confi gure, manage, and inspect
Container Security Devices (CSDs).
System Overview
The Security Client for Windows software
is used to manage Container Security
Devices (CSDs). A CSD is placed on the right
door frame inside a shipping container, the
container is stuffed and the container door
closed. Using the Security Client software
either with a handheld reader or on a
computer attached to a fi xed reader, the
CSD is armed and the serial number of the
container and a load ID are programmed into
the CSD. The container is then shipped out.
When the container arrives at it’s destination
the Security Client software shows if the
container has been tampered with. The CSD
can then be disarmed and the container door
opened.
The handheld reader unit is plugged into the
cell phone. It is then capable of communicating
wirelessly with the CSDs.

Installing PC Suite Software
You will need to dock your phone to a PC for
a number of reasons. In order to dock your
phone, fi rst install the Sony Ericsson software
that comes with the reader.
Reasons for docking your handheld reader:
You may have to download keys (in
order to arm containers) over the
Internet, if there is no GPRS coverage
over the public wireless network.
You may need to update the
CommerceGuard software.
You may want to upload CSD logs
to the PC (you are able to check
CSD logs and save them to phone
memory).
When inserting the CD in the PC, a start
menu is automatically shown.
1.
Select language and then start the PC Suite
Setup.
Follow the instructions in the installation
wizard.
If the start menu is not automatically
shown, use the ‘Run command in the
‘Windows Start’ menu to start ‘Start.exe’
from your CD drive.
By default thePC Suite’ is accessed from:

phone connected to an Internet enabled PC via
the cradle. Once a user has successfully logged
in, an Internet connection is not required at
subsequent logins.

Downloading/Purchasing
Encrypted Keys
An Arming key is required to arm a CSD. Arming
keys are purchased using the Purchase Keys
menu option.
Each time a CSD is armed an arming key is
used. Once a CSD is armed the arming key is
used and cannot be used again.
If there are no arming keys left, the user must
purchase arming keys before arming a CSD.
Arming keys can only be used by the user that
purchased them on the platform where they
were purchased (i.e., a user that purchases
arming keys using the Security Client for
Symbian can’t use the keys on the Security
Client for Windows).
Downloading/Purchasing Keys
There are two (2) ways of downloading keys:
On-line: when the phone has a GPRS
subscription.
Semi-offl ine: when the phone is
connected to a computer with
Internet access via the cradle.
Note: For demonstration (using
demo@localhost), there is no need
to download keys in advance. A
“dummy” key is automatically
generated during the arming
process.
From the main screen select the Options
drop-down menu.

Select the quantity of Keys from the
amount drop-down menu (1, 10, or 20).
The keys will remain usable for your login
even if you turn off the cell phone.

CommerceGuard™ Security Client for Symbian
Activating Consumed Keys
After a CSD is armed the arming information
needs to be sent to the CommerceGuard
network. If the phone has a GPRS connection,
the information is sent automatically. If the
phone does not have a GPRS connection or is
interrupted while sending arming information,
the arming information is saved on the phone
so it can be sent later.
If the arming information has not been sent,
the key status in the lower left corner
indicates there is an inactive key. With an
inactive key the CSD is armed but the server
does not know the CSD is armed.
The arming information can be sent up
manually using the Activate Keys menu option
or, the next time a CSD is armed while online,
saved arming information is sent up along with
the new arming event.
There are two (2) ways of activating Keys:
Online: when the phone has a GPRS
subscription.
Semi-offl ine: when the phone is
connected to a computer with
Internet access via the docking
cradle.
To manually activate keys not automatically
sent:
Verify you have GPRS coverage or dock
the phone to the cradle.
SelectActivate Keys’ from the Options
drop-down menu.

Now all armed CSDs are activated
and the arming procedure is
complete.
