Table 12-3: AT [+] Commands in CDPD Mode

Command Description

+IPR=<n> I/O Port Rate (DTE speed)

Sets the communication speed between the host (DTE) and the DART 300 modem. A modem

reset (equivalent to +WVRESET) is part of the execution of this command so de-registration may

occur. If auto-registration is enabled (+WS173=1) then the modem will re-register upon

completion of the command.

The result code is issued at the original speed setting. The new setting takes effect after the reset.

Var. Range

n 300, 600, 1200, 2400, 4800, 9600, 19200, 38400, 57600.

Result Codes:

OK parameter accepted and modem resetting.

ERROR Invalid parameter.

+WCID Display the System ID (SPNI).

Returns the Service Provider Network Identifier (SPNI). A return value of 00 indicates no current

connection.

+WPCHAN=[n] Set Modem Channel

The modem tunes to channel n, and stays locked on this channel.

The setting is not preserved on modem reset and is not saved with &W. If you need a channel

lock it must be set explicitly each time the modem is started.

Value Meaning

0 Automatic Channel Selection (Default)

1 – 1023 User Selected Channel

+WPCURNEI Current NEI

Returns the NEI (in dotted IP format) pointed to by +WS176 (Auto-register NEI Index). This

should be the current or last registered NEI.

It is possible to change the index pointer in +WS197 (Active NEI Index) without altering the

current NEI. See also +WPNEI?

+WPDEREG De-register

The NEI indexed by +WS197 (Active NEI Index) is de-registered from the network. This has no

effect if the NEI is already de-registered.

This command will execute without clearing the send buffers or gracefully closing a TCP session.

The onus is on the user to ensure communications are complete and sessions closed prior to de-

registration.

NOTE: If the index value in +WS197 has been changed since registration then the original NEI

remains registered.

+WPEID Equipment Identifier

Returns the modem’s unique CDPD equipment identification code in dotted-decimal and

Hexadecimal notation.

Response:

000.160.213.ddd.ddd.ddd

00-A0-D5-hh-hh-hh

The first three components (000.160.213 and 00-A0-D5) form the manufacturer identifier (Sierra

Wireless, Inc.) portion of the EID. The latter three components form the electronic serial number

of the modem.
