Chapter 3 - AT Commands

3.14 Remote Configuration Commands

When you are online with another Multi-Tech modem, you can issue AT commands to it by sending a remote configuration escape sequence. The remote modem responds by displaying a menu and asking for a setup password. The MT2834MR6 has two default passwords. Please note that if you change them, you cannot retrieve them by resetting the modem by using AT&W1; you must know the new passwords to make any further changes. For further information on remote configuration, see Appendix I, “Remote Configuration.”

Remote Configuration Escape Sequence

 

Enter the remote configuration escape sequence to initiate remote configuration when you

 

are online with another Multi-Tech modem. The default escape sequence used by the

 

MT2834MR6 is three percent signs (%%%) followed by the letters AT and ENTER. The

 

remote configuration escape character, which is stored in register S13, can be changed

 

either locally or remotely for greater security.

#Ixxxxxx

Change Login Password

 

xxxxxx = password

 

Default: #IMULTI-TECH

 

Use the #I command to enter or change the remote configuration login password.

 

AT#Ixxxxxx enters the current remote configuration login password, where xxxxxx

 

represents the password. If the password is wrong, the remote modem responds with

 

ERROR; if it is correct, the remote modem responds with OK, and you can proceed with the

 

#S command.

 

AT#I=xxxxxx stores a new remote configuration login password, where xxxxxx represents

 

the password. The password is case sensitive, and can be any combination of upper and

 

lower case keyboard characters. It must be six to ten characters in length.

#Syyyyyy

Change Setup Password

 

yyyyyy = password

 

Default: #SMODEMSETUP

 

Use the #S command to enter or change the remote configuration setup password. Before

 

you can use it, you must enter the login password using the #I command.

 

AT#Syyyyyy enters the current remote configuration password, where yyyyyy represents

 

the password. If the password is wrong, the remote modem responds with ERROR; if it is

 

correct, the remote modem responds with OK, and you can proceed with the next command.

 

AT#S=yyyyyy stores a new remote configuration setup password, where yyyyyy represents

 

the password. The password is case sensitive, and can be any combination of upper and

 

lower case keyboard characters. It must be six to ten characters long.
