Universal IP Devices

Set Commands

General Note: Due to varying factors, PING response times may not be valid.

#PINGNUM – Number of PING Requests

Description: This command sets the number of PING echo requests to issue to PINGREMOTE.

Syntax: AT#PINGNUM=<Value>

AT#PINGNUM? Read or display the current setting.(or AT#VPING, AT#VALL).

Values: From 0 to 255 inclusive. (If 0, ping indefinite until ETX (0x03) is issued)

Default: 4

#PINGREMOTE – IP Address of PING Request

Description: Sets the IP address up of the remote device to ping.

Syntax: AT#PINGREMOTE="<IP Address Value>"

AT#PINGREMOTE? Read or display the current setting.(or AT#VPING, AT#VALL).

Values: 32-bit number is dotted-decimal notation (i.e., xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx). No default.

#PING – Start PING Request

Description: Directs the module to start PING requests to the configured PING remote address. No of requests to be sent is obtained from the PINGNUM parameter.

Syntax: AT#PING

AT#PING? Read or display the current setting.

Values: Read parameters: (read from serial flash predefined before starting the ping command.)

PINGNUM PINGREMOTE

#PINGDELAY – PING Delay Time

Description:

This command sets the waiting delay, in seconds, before an echo request is considered as a no

 

reply. It is also the delay between two echo requests (if PINGNUM > 1).

Syntax:

AT#PINGDELAY=<Value>

 

AT#PINGDELAY? Read or display the current setting.

Values:

From 1 to 255 inclusive.

Default:

1
