online mode.

0 Switch from command mode to data mode. This value defaults if the parameter is omitted (0 will be
assumed).

7.19 +++ Switch from Data Mode to Command Mode
Description: This command is only available during a CSD call or a GPRS connection. The +++
character sequence causes the TA to cancel the data flow over the AT interface and
switch to command mode. This allows you to enter AT commands while maintaining the
data connection to the remote device or, accordingly, the GPRS connection.
To prevent the +++ escape sequence from being misinterpreted as data, it must be
preceded and followed by a pause of at least 1000 ms. The +++ characters must be
entered in quick succession, all within 1000 ms.
Syntax: Exec Command: +++
Response: OK
Notes:
• To return from command mode to data or PPP online mode, enter ATO.
• This command is not PIN protected.
• This command is supported in airplane mode.
