AT Command Set

Reference

GSM 07.05

Note

•Use CTRL-Z at the end of input to send the message and return OK.

•Use ESC at the end of message input to abort message send operation. NO message is sent although display returns OK!

•Sending e-mails via SMS: Note that some providers do not recognise @ symbol. Possible alternative “!” for “@”

•After invoking of the command CMGW, CMGS, CMGC it is necessary to wait for the ">" symbol and only afterwards the text can be sent to the module

•At baudrates lower than 19200 it is recommended to use the line termi- nation character only (refer to +ATS3, default <CR>, pg. 26) before en- tering the text/pdu. Use of the line termination character followed by the response formating character (see +ATS4, default <LF>, pg. 26) can cause problems.

•All characters entered behind the “>” symbol will be recognized as GSM characters. For example, “Backspace” (ASCII character 8) does not de- lete a character, but will be inserted into the SMS as an additional physi- cal character. As a result, the character you wanted to delete still ap- pears in the text, plus the GSM code equivalent of the Backspace key. See also Chapter 9.5 which provides the supported alphabet tables.

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.
