USING LINUX Using Linux Shell Commands Testing Serial Ports To test the serial ports created by the driver, type in a shell: # cat /dev/ttyACM0 & # echo –en "ATE0\r" > /dev/ttyACM03 # echo –en "AT\r" > /dev/ttyACM0 Note: Sending ATE0 is required, to avoid issues in the terminal output. It prevents the sending/receiving spurious characters to/from the modem when used with the Linux commands “echo” and “cat” You can perform the same test using the other interface (ttyACM1 ttyACM3).

BASIC OPERATIONS Basic Operations Interacting with Your Device Overview This section describes how to use AT commands to interact with your device. Using terminal software such as Kermit, you can issue AT commands to communicate with and configure your modem. The AT commands let you establish, read and modify device parameters and help you control how the device operates.

BASIC OPERATIONS Using the Radio IP Stack to Make a Data Connection Connect by issuing the command: AT#SGACT=1,1 (using PDP context #1). Using the Host System IP Stack to Make a Data Connection This device only supports packet data connections, such as dial-up networking. To make a data connection, you must use a PPP dialer. If your carrier requires a username and password for the Internet connection, be sure to enter that information into the PPP dialer. Dial up using ATD*99***1# (using PDP context #1).
