provide a user friendly method of accessing the functions you need (i.e. dialing or answering calls).
2.8 Where To Go From Here
You should familiarize yourself with the functions available from the included software by reading its manual. You will be accessing most, if not all, of the modem's functions from this software. You may also use any other commercially available communication software with the modem. Read Section 3 ONLY if you are interested in accessing the modem manually, and not through the included software. Section 4 and 5 contain reference material, and can be skipped. If you have difficulties getting your modem to work, read Section 6, Troubleshooting to find answers to commonly asked questions and problems.
Section Three - AT Command Set
3.1 Executing Commands
Commands are accepted by the modem while it is in Command Mode. Your modem is automatically in Com- mand Mode until you dial a number and establish a connec- tion. Commands may be sent to your modem from a PC running communication software or any other terminal de- vices.
Your modem is capable of data communication at rates of: 300, 1200, 2400, 4800, 9600, 14400, 19200, 38400, and 57600 bps. Make sure your COM port baud rate setting in your communications software is set to one of the above speeds.
3.2 Command Structure
All commands sent to the modem must begin with AT and end with ENTER. All commands may be typed in either upper or lower case, but not mixed. To make the command line more readable, spaces may be inserted between com- mands. If you omit a parameter from a command that requires one, it is just like specifying a parameter of 0. Example:
ATH [ENTER]
This command causes your modem to hang up.
