Sierra Wireless DART 200 CDPD Modem S-Registers above S100, S101, S102, S103, S104, S105, S106

DART 200 CDPD Modem User’s Guide 2 Installation and Setup

If the problem persists after checking the above possibilities, try power cycling the modem. If that fails to help, contact your modem supplier for assistance.

To determine if you have a channel restriction problem check the setting of the \J parameter with an AT&V. If it is \J0 then the DART 200 has no channel restrictions, so this can be eliminated as a possible source of the problem. If \J has any other value then bypass the problem by entering the AT\J0 command followed by an AT&W.

The S-Registers of interest in the AT&V+ output are summarized in

Table 2-1. The remainder of S-Registers are described in Appendix E,

S-Registers.

Table 2-1. S-Registers above 100

S100	The channel currently being reported (may not be acquired)
S101	Will be 1 if a channel has been acquired
S102	RSSI for the channel being reported
S103	Output power (0 to 7 with 0 being highest and 7 lowest)
S104	MDBS power product (a request for a specific power output)
S105	Current BLER (receive block error rate - %)
S106	Current SER (symbol error rate - %)
S107	Current LSAI (CDPD V1.0), or WASI (CDPD V1.1)
S108	Current SPNI (service provider network identifier)
S109	Current CSI (channel stream identifier)
S110	Current LCI (local cell identifier)
S111	Current Area/Cell color code
S112	Current TX BLER (transmit block error rate - %)
S113	Current SIE (symbols in error)
S114	Current SPI (Service Provider ID) (CDPD V1.1)
	XID RSSI threshold, time (CDPD V1.0)
	* threshold is dBw above -143 (in this case -125);
	* time (in 1/10 sec) is how long RSSI can be below threshold before a
	channel hop must be taken (5 seconds in this case)
S115	Not Used (CDPD V1.1)
	XID BLER threshold, time (CDPD V1.0)
	* Block error rate threshold (1/n) in % (10% in this case)
	* time (in 1/10 sec) is how long BLER can be above threshold before
	a channel hop must be taken (1 second in this case)
S116	Not Used (CDPD V1.1)
	XID SER threshold, time (CDPD V1.0)
	* Symbol error rate threshold (1/n) in % (10% in this case)
	* time (in 1/10 sec) is how long RSSI can be below threshold before a
S117	channel hop must be taken (5 seconds in this case)
	Reserved
S118	Reserved
