AT commands
Introduction to AT commands
This chapter describes how AT commands are used to exchange information with the
phone, the built-in modem and Bluetooth module. The AT commands are listed at the
end of this chapter. For a description of each command, refer to “AT commands” on
page 27.
You use AT commands to:
Configure the phone to connect via USB cable, infrared port, Bluetooth or the
system bus.
Configure the modem to connect via USB cable, infrared port, Bluetooth or the
system bus.
Request information about the current configuration or operational status of the
phone or the modem.
Test availability in the phone or modem and, when applicable, request the range of
valid parameters for an AT command.

This allows sending AT commands to the built-in modem while still remaining
connected to the remote modem.
