6.1 AT Mode
AT commands are used to configure the modem, command it to do something, or
query a setting.
AT commands must always be terminated by <CR> (ASCII character 0x0D).
If E=1 (Echo On), the AT command (including the terminating <CR>) will be output
before any responses defined in the next section.
Response Framing
Two settings affect the format of AT command output: V (Verbose) and Q (Quiet).
If Q=1 (Quiet On), no result codes are output whatsoever, so there is no response
generated by a (non query) command. If Q=0 (Quiet Off), result codes are output. The
format of this output if then affected by the Verbose setting.
If Quiet mode is off, the result code is affected as follows: For V=1 (Verbose mode),
the textual result code is surrounded by <CR><LF> and any AT query response is also
surrounded by <CR><LF>; for V=0, (Terse mode), a numeric result code is output with
a single trailing <CR> (no <LF> is output), while any AT query response is followed
by <CR><LF> (there is no preceding output).
For example, possible output to the AT command “AT<CR>” (assuming quiet mode is
not on) is:
0<CR> - if V=0
<CR><LF>OK<CR><LF> - if V=1
6.2 PPP Mode
In PPP mode, the modem acts as a PPP server, providing an IP address, and DNS
servers (if available) to the Host.
PPP mode is entered from the AT mode by using any of the following commands:
AT\APPP<CR>
ATDT10.0.0.1<CR>
ATDT10001<CR>
ATD#19788<CR>
CLIENT<CR>
In response to any of the preceding commands, the modem will respond with
CONNECT<CR><lf>
and is ready for the host to begin PPP negotiations.
The IP received by the host in the resulting negotiation will either be a private (non-
routable) IP or a public (network-routable) IP provided by the network, depending on
the settings of *USEPRIVATEIP [S300]. If *USEPRIVATEIP =1, the value of the
private IP an be determined beforehand by querying S110. The private IP to be used
can be defined with the command AT*PRIVATEIP=192.168.100.33 substituting the
desired IP address.
