AT COMMAND SET SUMMARY
An AT command is a command issued by the computer/terminal to the modem
through the asynchronous computer-modem interface in asynchronous data for-
mat.
AT commands control the modem's behavior and actions. To send an AT
command from a computer to the modem, you must be running a communication
software and the modem must be in command state.
An AT command prefix (ATtention) precedes each command line, except in the
case of A/ , A> , and +++ . A/ re-executes the last command once. A> re-executes
the last command once, and repeats the last call up to 9 times until aborted by
physically pressing any key on the keyboard or front panel or until a successful con-
nection with a remote modem has been made. These commands are not preceded
by
AT or followed by more characters. Up to 40 commands can be entered in a
command line with a single AT prefix. Be sure to either use all capital letters (AT)
or none at all (at).
+++ is the escape sequence code that is entered in data state to return the modem
to command state. The modem will accept
AT commands only while it is in com-
mand state.
Basic AT Command Set
A list of the basic AT command set follows. Each command should be entered after
an AT prefix. A plus sign (
+) placed before a command in the list indicates that it is
a default setting.
A Goes on-line in answer mode. (See also S39b2 , S43b6 )
+ B0 Selects ITU-T V.22 for 1200 bps communication. (Default)
B1 Selects Bell 212A for 1200 bps communication.
D Enters originate mode, dials the number that follows; attempts to go
on-line. (See also
S35b4 , S38b0 )
Digits and modifiers that can be used with the D command:
0-9 , # , * Digits for dialing.
