Plus AT Commands



Dial

Begins the dialing sequence. The dial string

n (modifiers and telephone number) is entered after the D command.

Any digit 0–9, * , # , A, B, C, D, may be dialed as a DTMF tone. Only the digits 0–9 can be dialed in Pulse Dial mode.

The following example shows how to dial through a PBX. The dial string consists of the command string and the
telephone number:

ATDT9,5551234

Command Telephone

String Number

Dial String

Modifiers include the following parameters:

T – Tone (DTMF) dial. Any digit 0–9, * , # , A, B, C, or D can be dialed as tone.

P – Pulse dial. Only the digits 0–9 can be dialed in Pulse Dial mode. This is invalid in Denmark, Norway, and Sweden.

See Appendix F.

NOTE: Once a dialing method (tone or pulse) has been specified, it will remain active only until the end of that dial string.

The factory setting is Tone dial.

, – Pause. Causes the modem to pause before processing the next character in the dial string. The length of this pause is
determined by the value held in S-register S8, the Pause Time configuration option.

W – Wait for dial tone. Modem waits for a second dial tone before processing the dial string. This can be the initial dial
tone or a second tone received when dialing through a tandem PBX (for example, 9W555-6789), or when invoking
special features (for example, 70#W555-6789, where 70# is the local telephone company command that disables Call
Waiting).

R – Reverse Dial mode. Causes the originating modem to send out an answertone once it no longer detects ringback.
(Ringback is the ring you hear at the originating site when making a call.) The R parameter must be the last character in
the dial string. For correct operation, at least one ringback must be detected; therefore, the remote modem should be
configured to answer on the second ring or subsequent rings.

@ – Quiet answer. Wait for five seconds of silence after dialing the number. If the silence is not detected, the modem
sends a NO ANSWER result to the DTE.

! – Hook flash. This causes the modem to go on-hook for 0.5 seconds, then return to off-hook.

; – Return to Command mode. Modem returns to Command mode after dialing a number without disconnecting the call.
This is useful when the number exceeds 40 characters, or when the wait time between parts of a dial string is unknown.

Space, – , and ( ). These characters are ignored by the dial string and can be included in the dial string to enhance
readability.
