AT command problem?

The CTA 500dm does not respond to AT commands sent from your PC.

¥Make sure that your PC, terminal or other DTE is conÞgured correctly.

¥Check the DTE connection. If the DTE is conÞgured as a DCE you may need a null modem cable.

¥Check that your PC or DTE is conÞgured to expect CD and CTS signals. See ÒSerial Interface Control LinesÓ on page 56 for more information.

¥Check that the CTA 500dm is in the command mode.

¥Check that your PC or DTE is conÞgured to provide a DTR signal. See ÒSerial Interface Control LinesÓ on page 56 for more information.

¥If the LED is ßashing quickly, refer to the ConÞguration section of this document.

¥Check that the CTA 500dm serial port is set to the correct baud rate (115200 is required for all cases except during a software upgrade) using ÒSerial Interface RateÓ on page 54.

Echoed AT commands from the CTA 500dm do not appear correctly on your PC, but the response messages appear correctly.

¥Check the echo option on your PC.

¥Disable echo if your PC displays duplicate characters. Enable echo if your PC does not display any characters.

¥See ÒSet Local EchoÓ on page 38 for more information.

AT response messages do not appear correctly on your PC but AT commands appear correctly.

¥If numbers are being returned to the PC instead of messages, change the message code setting on the CTA 500dm. See ÒVerbose ControlÓ on page 40 for more information. The numeric responses and indications are shown in ÒNumeric CTA 500dm responsesÓ on page 83.
