1.Programming the Modem
There are two ways to start flash programming a modem. It can be programmed either from “AT” mode or right when the modem powers up.
Below is an example of how a modem is programmed.
DTE | Modem | Comments |
AT*FS\r |
| This effectively “restarts” the modem so that it |
|
| enters the boot code. |
Handshake Sequence |
|
|
M’s |
| Many M’s are sent (10 milliseconds apart) at 19200 |
|
| baud. |
|
| This is where the handshake starts if the modem is |
|
| just powered up |
| U | U is sent at 19200 baud if M’s are received within 30 |
|
| milliseconds of power up (see section 3.6). |
|
| If the M’s are not received within 30 milliseconds, |
|
| then the modem starts up normally. |
D |
| Sent at 19200 baud |
| JKM | J if can receive only at 19200 |
|
| K if can receive only at 19200/3840 |
|
| M if can receive at 9600/19200/38400/57600/115200 |
IJKLM |
| I if modem will be programmed at 9600 |
|
| J if modem will be programmed at 19200 |
|
| K if modem will be programmed at 38400 |
|
| L if modem will be programmed at 57600 |
|
| M if modem will be programmed at 115200 |
| \r\nOK\r\n | Modem is ready to be programmed |
