OK

 

 

 

 

Read command

Response

 

AT+CPUC?

Read command returns the current parameters of PUC.

 

+CPUC: <currency>, <ppu> OK

 

If error is related to ME functionality:

 

+CME ERROR: <err>

 

Parameter

 

 

See write command

 

 

 

Write command

Response

 

AT+CPUC=<curre

Write command sets the parameters of Advice of Charge related price per unit

ncy>,<ppu>[,

and currency table. SIM PIN2 is usually required to set the parameters.

<passwd>]

If error is related to ME functionality:

 

+CME ERROR: <err>

 

Parameter

 

 

<currency> string type; three-character currency code (e.g. “GBP”, “DEM”);

 

 

character set as specified with AT+CSCS. If the currency name

 

 

is longer than three characters, all characters will be cut off after

 

 

the third position. Before they are written to the SIM Card, these

 

 

characters are converted to the standard GSM alphabet.

 

<ppu>

string type; price per unit; dot is used as a decimal separator

 

 

(e.g. “2.66”). The length is limited to 20 characters. If the string

 

 

length is exceeded, the command is terminated with an error.

 

 

This string may only contain digits and a dot. Leading zeros are

 

 

removed from the string. The minimum and maximum value are

 

 

determined by the structure of the SIM-PUCT file. The maximum

 

 

price per unit value is 999 999 999.00. When successfully en-

 

 

tered, this value is rounded to maximum accuracy.

 

 

Note: Due to storage in mantisse (range 0-4095) and exponent (-7

 

 

to 7) it is possible that rounding errors occur.

 

<passwd>

string type; SIM PIN2. String parameter which can contain any

 

 

combination of characters. The maximum string length is limited

 

 

to 8 characters. If this value is exceeded, the command termi-

 

 

nates with an error message. If the PIN2 is incorrect, a CME er-

 

 

ror (+CME ERROR: incorrect password) is output.

MC35 specifications

The Siemens MC35 is a compact and versatile modem designed primarily for mobile communication, data transmission, and machine-to-machine (M2M) applications. Launched in the early 2000s, it quickly became popular due to its blend of performance, reliability, and ease of integration, making it a solid choice for developers and businesses.

One of the key features of the MC35 is its support for GSM and GPRS technologies. This allows it to connect seamlessly to various networks, enabling users to transmit data at speeds that were impressive for its time. The GPRS capability can offer data rates of up to 171.2 kbps, allowing for efficient data transfer even in areas with limited connectivity.

The MC35 is designed to support both SMS and voice functionalities, making it adaptable for a range of applications. This includes remote monitoring, telemetry, and alarm signaling. The ability to send and receive SMS messages is a significant advantage for applications that require immediate alerts and notifications, enhancing its utility in security systems and industrial automation.

Furthermore, the modem is equipped with a range of interfaces, including serial communication (RS232), which makes it compatible with various hardware devices. This facilitates easy integration into existing systems, whether for industrial machinery or consumer electronics. Additionally, it features a robust software development kit (SDK), which enables developers to create custom applications tailored to their specific requirements.

Power consumption is another notable characteristic of the Siemens MC35. It is engineered to be energy-efficient, which is especially important for battery-operated devices or systems that require a prolonged operation without frequent recharging or maintenance.

In terms of physical characteristics, the MC35 is compact and lightweight, allowing it to fit into various enclosure designs without occupying much space. Its durability ensures it can perform reliably in different environments, making it suitable for outdoor and industrial applications.

To summarize, the Siemens MC35 stands out as a reliable modem with a rich feature set that includes GSM and GPRS support, SMS and voice capabilities, easy integration through various interface options, and energy-efficient operation. Its adaptability makes it a valuable tool for a wide array of communication and data transmission tasks, solidifying its place in the evolution of mobile communications technology.
