Multi-Tech Systems, Inc. AT Commands for EDGE Modems (S000371B) 212
<text>
Text assigned to the phone number.
<RealLocReq>
Is a display of the “real” <location> of the entry required?
0 Do not show an entry’s “real” location number. Parameter <location> will not be displayed.
Default.
1 Show the “real” location number as parameter <location> at the end of the entry
<location>
The location within the phonebook memory at which the corresponding entry is located.
This location may be used for other phonebook commands (e.g., AT+CPBR, AT+CPBW, ATD><mem><n>).
<internal-counter>
0...maxindex This parameter is only an internal parameter and cannot modified directly. Default = 0.
The internal counter will be reset to index 0 after a call to ATZ or AT&F.
Notes:
• The complete list of sorted entries can be retrieved using AT command AT^SPBG.
• The command can be used for the phonebooks “SM”, “FD”, “ME” (cf. AT+CPBS).
• Users should be aware that when using this AT command quickly after SIM PIN authentication, the SIM data
may not yet be accessible, resulting in a short delay before the requested AT command response is returned.
See Section 20.1, Restricted Access to SIM Data after SIM PIN Authentication.
Examples
Example 1 – This example illustrates how to search down and up again using AT^SPBS=1 and 2:
at&f First, AT&F is issued to make sure that AT^SPBS=1 starts from the first character in
alphabetical order.
OK
at^spbs=1
^SPBS:1,”+999999”,145,”Arthur”
^SPBS:2,”+777777”,145,”Bill”
^SPBS:3,”+888888”,145,”Charlie”
OK
at^spbs=1
^SPBS:2,”+777777”,145,”Bill”
^SPBS:3,”+888888”,145,”Charlie”
^SPBS:4,”0304444444”,129,”Esther”
OK
at^spbs=1
^SPBS:3,”+888888”,145,”Charlie”
^SPBS:4,”0304444444”,129,”Esther”
^SPBS:5,”03033333333”,129,”Harry”
OK
at^spbs=2
^SPBS:2,”+777777”,145,”Bill”
^SPBS:3,”+888888”,145,”Charlie”
^SPBS:4,”0304444444”,129,”Esther”
OK
Example 2 – This example shows that when the last index in the sorted list has been reached, the
internal counter overflows to the first index.
at&f Reset internal counter to 0.
OK
at^spbs=2 Step down one entry starting from (internal counter)=0 - overflow occurs.
^SPBS:33,”[phone]”,145,”TomTailor”
^SPBS:1,”+999999”,145,”Arthur”
^SPBS:2,”+777777”,145,”Bill”
OK
Example 3 – Using AT^SPBS with <RealLocReq>=1 in order to obtain the entries’ location numbers:
at^spbs=1,1
^SPBS:1,”+999999”,145,”Arthur”,27
^SPBS:2,”+777777”,145,”Bill”,6
^SPBS:3,”+888888”,145,”Charlie”,15
The numbers at the end of each line are the memory locations in the phonebook and can be used for
dialing or editing phonebook entries:
at+cpbr=27 Read out phonebook location 27.
+CPBR: 27,”+999999”,145,”Arthur” his entry can be edited with AT+CPBW or used for dialing with
ATD><mem><n>.
