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 ■ Data bits: 8 ■ Parity: none ■ Stop bit: 1 ■ Flow control: hardware To confirm you are communicating with the device: ■ Type AT and press Enter. If the device responds with OK, you are communicating with the device. Verifying Signal Strength To verify the device signal strength, enter: AT+CSQ The command indicates signal quality, in the form: +CSQ: , Where: Received signal strength indication.
BASIC OPERATIONS Note: Signal strength of 10 or higher is needed for successful packet data sessions. Example A example response to AT+CSQ: +CSQ: 15,1 Checking Network Registration Before establishing a packet data connection, verify the is device registered on the network. To do this enter the network registration report read command: AT+CREG? If the device returns: +CREG: 0,1 The device is registered. If the device returns: +CREG: 0,2 The device is in a network searching state.
BASIC OPERATIONS 3. Enter: AT+CMGS="##########" >Your message here where ########## is the recipient's number. Send the message. Enter CTRL+Z. The device responds: +CMGS: 255 OK For example: AT+CMGF=1 OK AT+CMGS="6155554563" > How are you? +CMGS: 255 OK Deleting Messages To delete one text message, enter: AT+CMGD=I,# where I is the index in the select storage and # is the delflag option. Enter: 0 Deletes message in the specified index. 1 Deletes all read messages.
