Table 8 describes the AT Commands. Table 9 details the Extended AT Commands that allow the
configuration of the network server operating parameters. Any AT command received, except the listed
commands, are acknowledged with OK status. This allows existing modem applications to transmit
commands without causing an error. These include AT<X>n, but not currently AT&<X>n, AT%<X>n,
AT\<X>n, where <X> is a letter.
Table 8 AT Commands
Parameter Command Description
Enter Command mode <delay>+++<delay> If the string +++ is seen in data mode, with no
characters sent for 1 second before or after, then
command mode is entered.
Initiate Connection
Command
ATD <destination> Standard modem dialing command, redefined to
initiate an internet connection to a remote computer.
Indicates the IP address of the target, and optionally the
TCP port number to use for connection. The T or P
option (ATDT or ATDP) can be present and has no effect.
If present, the IP address must be exactly 12 decimal
digits with 3 for each byte of the address.
If no IP address is given, then the ECable destination
address defined for the port is used.
If the destination TCP port is defined, it is separated
from the IP address by a '#' character, and is 1 to 5
decimal digits.
If TCP port is defined, the ECable destination port
defined for the serial port is used. If the destination
port is 0, the standard Telnet port (23) is used.
If the destination string ends with a semicolon, the
server remains in the command mode, not the data
mode, once a connection is made.
In command mode data is not passed from the
remote computer, so data could be lost if the unit
stays in command mode.
If the connection cannot be attempted, NO CARRIER
status is returned. If the connection attempt fails, NO
ANSWER status is returned.
If the connection succeeds, CONNECT status is
returned.
Echo control ATEn If n=0, commands are not echoed.
If n=1, subsequent commands will be echoed.
The default, upon unit reset, is for no echo (ATE0).
Disconnect ATHn If n=0, any connection to a remote host is dropped.
Other value of n is ignored.
Return to data mode ATOn Exits command mode and places the serial port in the
data mode.
All subsequent data is sent to the network application, if
connected, until an enter command mode sequence is
received. Any value of n is ignored, if present.
