Chapter 3 - AT Commands

$SBn

Serial Port Baud Rate

 

 

 

 

n = speed

 

 

 

 

Default: $SB57600

 

 

 

 

The $SB command sets the speed of the MT2834MR6’s serial port in both originate and

 

answer modes. Speed conversion allows you to set this serial port baud rate at a fixed

 

speed of up to 115,200 bps, regardless of the modem’s transmission speed setting.

 

For this command to work, the modem’s baud adjust feature must first be turned off with the

 

$BA0 command. When baud adjust is on, as soon as the modem receives its first AT

 

command, it automatically adjusts its serial port baud rate to match the speed of the

 

computer or terminal to which it is connected. However, in applications such as automatic

 

answer, the modem may not receive AT commands. In this case it is helpful to be able to

 

preset the serial port baud rate with the $SB command.

 

 

In addition to setting the modem’s serial port speed, this command sets the speed at which

 

the modem issues command mode responses (result codes).

 

 

The MT2834MR6 accepts AT commands at any speed, regardless of the speed preset by

 

the $SB command. If the modem receives a command at a speed different from the preset

 

speed, the modem switches its serial port baud rate to match the new command speed,

 

even though the baud rate value stored by the $SB command remains the same. This

 

provides you with a convenient way to switch the serial port speed while still making it easy

 

to automatically return to the original speed the next time the modem is powered up or

 

reset.
