Modem AT Commands and
S-Registers
The AT command set allows you to control your modem from a command line
or from terminal mode. Some guidelines for using the AT command set are
listed in the following tables.
• AT commands are usually preceded by AT. They are not case sensitive
and do not require spaces in the command strings themselves.
• AT commands can be invoked from any modem communications software
under terminal mode.
• AT commands invoked normally get a response of OK, ERROR or other
messages, depending on the command. These are sometimes called
"result codes".
•A Y in the Default column indicates that the command is preset at the
factory. You can set the defaults by entering AT&F.
• An N appearing in the command string indicates that a number needs to
replace it.
• AT commands can be invoked from any communications software under
terminal mode.
