ZyXEL Communications 3356P-LAN user manual Command Description, AT Command Set/Type Example

∙Multiple AT commands can be combined into one line. For example, AT&D2 and AT&K0 can be combined into one line AT&D2&K0.

The Comet processes commands from left to right. The AT command that appears to the right might over-write the command to the left if they are trying to accomplish tasks or set modes that cannot coexist.

∙If you see duplicated characters for each one you type, your Comet and software both have their “ echo” feature turned. The Comet command echo state is switched off using ATE0 and on using ATE1 (default). To eliminate the double characters, turn off the software’ s command echo rather than using the ATE0 command. If you see no characters in your terminal window when you type, the modem’ s echo setting is probably set to off. In this case, issue the ATE1 command.

∙When a command is successfully issued and accepted, a modem responds with what is called a “ Result Code.” The Comet supports both “ verbose” result codes (i.e. “ OK” ), and “ numerical” result codes (i.e. “ 0").

You can use the ATV command to set it one way or the other as follows:

ATV0

ATV1

There are a few basic commands that do not require the “ AT” command prefix. These are as follows:
