AT Command Processing Modes
Data services AT command processing consists of three
modes:
• Command mode — While in the Command mode, data
service is inactive and the DCE processes AT commands
received on the Rm interface.
• Online mode — Online mode is entered when a data
connection is established and data service becomes
active. While in the Online mode, the DCE does not
recognize AT commands on the Rm interface, but does
process in-band control data and software flow control
data.
• Online-Command mode — During Online-Command
mode, data service is in the active state, although data is
not processed. The DCE processes all AT commands
received on the Rm interface while in Online-Command
mode.
