+CMGF – Preferred Message Format
Description:
The message formats supported are text mode and PDU mode.
In PDU mode, a complete SMS Message including all header information is given as a
binary string (in hexadecimal format). Therefore, only the following set of characters is
allowed: {0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, A, B, C, D, E, F}. Each pair or character is converted to a
byte (e.g.: ‘41’ is converted to the ASCII character ‘A’, whose ASCII code is 0x41 or 65).
In Text mode, all commands and responses are in ASCII characters.
The selected format is stored in EEPROM by the +CSAS command.
Syntax:
AT+CMGF=
