ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to an automated programmer for actuating a sequence of keys on a handset of a cellular telephone, as required by manufacturer instructions, to initialize the telephone for operation in a cellular system. The programmer comprises a pair of pusher members for actuating the keys on the keypad, and a holder for securing the handset above the pusher members. The holder is adjustable in three dimensions to allow securing of handsets of various shapes and sizes. Also, each pusher member is controlled by a driver, which can move the pusher member to any location within a three dimensional space. This allows the programmer to actuate the keys on different cellular telephones having a variety of handset shapes and sizes, and a variety of keypad configurations. Two pushers are provided to allow the programmer to depress two keys simultaneously, as required by some cellular telephones. The programmer also has a programming module for determining an appropriate key sequence and for determining the physical location of each of the keys of the particular model of cellular telephone. In addition, the programmer has the capability of sensing contact between the pusher member and other surfaces for error checking purposes.
