6. SUPPORTED AT COMMANDS
This section describes the basic “AT” commands used to configure the cellular modem. These commands are a subset of the commands used in typical
A command line is a string of characters sent from the DTE (e.g. a PC) while the modem is in Command State. A command line has a prefix, a body and a terminator. Each command line must begin with a character sequence AT and must terminate with a carriage return.
The Radio starts the processing of commands only after AT string sequence is received.
Commands entered with out of range parameters will result in ERROR message. Correct commands will result in OK message in verbose mode, and 0 in terse mode.
