Overview

This chapter discusses guidelines necessary to operate AT commands as well as listing all AT commands supported by the Model 3830 modems. AT commands are issued from asynchronous DTEs.

Operating Modes

The Model 3830 modem has two operating modes: Command mode and Data mode. Before a modem goes online (establishes a successful connection with a remote modem), it is in Command mode, an idle state where you can modify its operating parameters or issue modem commands. (Any command issued is acknowledged with a response in either words or digits known as result codes. Refer to Table 4-1for a listing of result codes.)

Once the modems are online, either by answering or originating a call, they automatically switch to Data mode. Data mode is a state where any entries made from the DTE are considered data and are transmitted and received between modems. The modems remain in Data mode until the connection is broken or until they are forced into online Command mode using the escape sequence (+ + +).
