2.2 The AT command set
GSM mobile telephones and modems can be operated via Remote Control using a serial interface
(data cable or infrared connection). Remote control is implemented by means of AT+C commands
according to the ETSI GSM 07.07 [1] and GSM 07.05 [4] specifications, as well as several
manufacturer-specific AT commands. These commands are described in more detail in section 2.2.2.
A command entered at the user port generally begins with an ‘AT’ command prefix. The remainder of
the line is interpreted as a sequence of the commands described below. The commands are not case-
sensitive. More than one command may be given on a single line, with the semicolon serving as the
delimiter between commands.
The “ITU-T Draft new Recommendation V.25ter” specification [5] applies to the sequence of the
interface commands. According to this guideline, commands should begin with the character string
”AT” and end with ”<CR>” (= 0x0D). The input of a command is acknowledged by the display of ”OK”
or ”ERROR”.
A command currently in process is interrupted by each additional character entered. This
means that you should not enter the next command until you have received the acknowledgment;
otherwise the current command is interrupted.
The commands supported are listed in the tables provided in sections 2.2.1, and 2.3.1 through
2.3.9.15.
2.2.1 Hayes Standard commands
The Hayes standard commands correspond to the commands of AT Hayes compatible modems.
All commands in Table 2-7 expect a numeric argument; if this argument is omitted, the default of 0 is
assumed.
The ATD command is a special command in that all characters specified in the same line (or up to a
semicolon) are considered part of the number to dial.
