PinPoint EDGE/GPRS - User Guide, version 2.32 23
Data Communication and Host Modes
Some internal hardware requires upwards of 20 seconds before AT commands can be entered, so
be patient if there seems to be no response to AT commands.
PassThru Mode allows only specific AT commands. Some ALEOS commands will be unavailable
when the modem is in PassThru mode. The commands usable also depend heavily on the modem
model number (found on the label on the top of the modem).

Caution: PassThru can only be exited by resetting or power-cycling the modem.
This mode cannot be entered via a remote Telnet session.
Caution: ALEOS is disabled in PassThru Mode. You cannot use most ALEOS
specific commands while the modem is in PassThru Mode. While in PassThru
mode, you also cannot use Wireless Ace to connect with the PinPoint.
In Wireless Ace you can configure Telnet operation.
FIGURE 4. Wireless Ace: Telnet Configuration
If you need to change the port for Telnet (for example, you have the default port blocked on your
firewall), the option is on the Other tab. The default telnet port is 2332. You can also change the
Telnet timeout, if the connection is idle, default 2 minutes.
