n=1-9 enables the ability to make a connection from the network to

 

 

 

the serial port.

 

 

 

n>1-9 is invalid.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Enables or disables character echo and responses.

 

ATEn

 

n=0 disables character echo and responses.

 

 

 

n=1 enables character echo and responses.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Enables 1-character response or full verbose.

 

ATVn

 

n=0 enables 1-character response.

 

 

 

n=1 enables full verbose.

 

 

 

 

Note: The unit recognizes these AT commands as single commands such as ATE0 or ATV1; it does not recognize compound commands such as ATE0V.

Remote IP Address

This is the destination IP address used with an outgoing connection.

Remote Port

You must set the remote TCP port number for the unit to make outgoing connections. This parameter defines the port number on the target host to which a connection is attempted.
