ATR3
Serial Port Time Out The time in milliseconds for the serial
port to time out. When data is entering the serial port, and this
amo0unt of time passes with no more data, the M8S will begin
to transmit the data over the air.
Range: 1 - 999

ATRS
RSSI (Receive Signal Strength Indicator) Returns the signal
level of last received packet. The reading is in dBm. Usable for
relative comparison of signals, but absolute value is within10dB
at -90dBm.
No parameters. Returns
a number : -50 to 140
(dBm) varies by model.

ATSM
LPM Operation Enable When set to 1, the DTR input line
controls the M8’s low-power operation. When set to 0, the M8S
will not go into LPM, regardless of the state of the DTR pin.
When set to 2, the modem is forced into a low-power mode,
disabling the receiver.
