1.4 AT Command Syntax
The “AT” or “at” prefix must be set at the beginning of each command line. To terminate a command line enter <CR>.
Commands are usually followed by a response that includes “<CR><LF><response><CR><LF>”. Throughout this document, only the responses are presented, <CR><LF> are omitted intentionally.
Table 1.4: Types of AT commands and responses.
AT Cmmand Type Syntax
Test command AT+CXXX=?
Read command
Write command
Exec(ution) command
AT+CXXX? set with the corresponding Write command or by internal processes.
This command returns the currently set value of the parameter(s).
AT+CXXX=<...> This command sets user-definable parameter values.
AT+CXXX
Function
The mobile equipment returns the list of parameters and value ranges
The execution command reads non-variable parameters determined by internal processes in the GSM engine.
1.4.1 Using Parameters
• Optional parameters are enclosed in square brackets. If optional parameters are omitted, the current settings are used until you change them.
• Optional parameters or subparameters can be omitted unless they are followed by other parameters. If you want to omit a parameter in the middle of a string it must be replaced by a comma. See also example 1.
• A parameter value enclosed in square brackets represents the value that will be used if an optional parameter is omitted. See also example 2.
• When the parameter is a character string; e.g., <text> or <number>, the string must be enclosed in quotation marks (e.g., “Charlie Brown” or “+49030xxxx”). Symbols in quotation marks will be recognized as strings.
• All spaces will be ignored when using strings without quotaton marks.
• It is possible to omit the leading zeros of strings which represent numbers.
• If an optional parameter of a V.250 command is omitted, its value is assumed to be 0.
Example 1: Omitting parameters in the middle of a string
AT+CCUG?
+CCUG: 1,10,1
OK
AT+CCUG=,9
OK
AT+CCUG?
+CCUG: 1,9,1
OK
Query current setting
Set only the middle parameter
Query new setting
Example 2: Using default parameter values for optional parameters
AT+CFUN=7,0
OK
AT+CFUN?
+CFUN: 7
OK
AT+CFUN=
OK
+CFUN: 1
OK
Activate CYCLIC SLEEP mode, don’t reset ME
Query ME mode
Set ME back to normal (default parameters: 1,0)
1.4.2 Combining AT Commands on the Same Command Line
You may enter several commands on the same line. This eliminates the typing of “AT” or “at” before each command. Instead, it is needed only once - at the beginning of the command line. Use a semicolon as command delimiter.
The table below lists the AT commands you cannot enter together with other commands on the same line.
Otherwise, the responses may not be in the expected order.
AT Command Type
V.250 commands
GSM 7.07 commands
GSM 7.05 commands
Commands starting with AT&
AT+IPR
Comment with FAX commands (Prefix AT+F) with AT commands, Prefix AT^S)

Chapter 1 – Introduction
1.5 Supported Character Sets
The ME supports two character sets: GSM 03.38 (7 bit, also referred to as GSM alphabet or SMS alphabet) and
UCS2 (16 bit, refer to ISO/IEC 10646). See AT+CSCS for information about selecting the character set. Character tables can be found below.
Explanation of terms
• International Reference Alphabet (IRA)
IRA means that one byte is displayed as two characters in hexadecimal format. For example, the byte 0x36
(decimal 54) is displayed as “36” (two characters). IRA is used here for input 8-bit or 16-bit data via terminal devices using text mode. This means only characters ‘A’..F’,’a’..’f’ and ‘0’..’9’ are valid.
• Escape sequences
The escape sequence used within a text coded in the GSM default alphabet (0x1B) must be correctly interpreted by the TE, both for character input and output. To the module, an escape sequence appears like any other byte received or sent.
• Terminal Adapter (TA)
TA is used equivalent to Mobile Equipment (ME) which stands for the GSM module described here. It uses
GSM default alphabet as its character set.
• Terminal Equipment (TE)
TE is the device connected to the TA via serial interface. In most cases TE is an ANSI/ASCII terminal that does not fully support the GSM default alphabet, for example MS Hyperterminal.
• TE Character Set
The character set currently used by Terminal Equipment is selected with AT+CSCS.
• Data Coding Scheme (dcs)
DCS is part of a short message and is saved on the SIM. When writing a short message to the SIM in text mode, the dcs stored with AT+CSMP is used and determines the coded character set.
The behavior when encountering characters, that are not valid characters of the supported alphabets, is undefined.
Due to the constraints described below it is recommended to prefer the USC2 alphabet in any external application.
If the GSM alphabet is selected all characters sent over the serial line (between TE and TA) are in the range from 0 to
127 (7 Bit range). CAUTION: ASCII alphabet (TE) is not GSM alphabet (TA/ME) !
Several problems resulting from the use of GSM alphabet with ASCII terminal equipment:
• “@” character with GSM alphabet value 0 is not printable by an ASCII terminal program (e.g., Microsoft©
Hyperterminal®).
• “@” character with GSM alphabet value 0 will terminate any C string! This is because the 0 is defined as C string end tag. Therefore, the GSM Null character may cause problems on application level when using a
‘C’- function as “strlen()”. This can be avoided if it is represented by an escape sequence as shown in the table below.
By the way, this may be the reason why even network providers often replace “@”with “@=*” in their SIM application.
• Other characters of the GSM alphabet are misinterpreted by an ASCII terminal program. For example, GSM
“ö” (as in “Börse”) is assumed to be “|” in ASCII, thus resulting in “B|rse”. This is because both alphabets mean different characters with values hex. 7C or 00 and so on.
• In addition, decimal 17 and 19 which are used as XON/XOFF control characters when software flow control is activated, are interpreted as normal characters in the GSM alphabet.
When you write characters differently coded in ASCII and GSM (e.g., Ä, Ö, Ü), you need to enter escape sequences. Such a character is translated into the corresponding GSM character value and, when output later, the GSM character value can be presented. Any ASCII terminal then will show wrong responses.

CAUTION: Often, the editors of terminal programs do not recognize escape sequences. In this case, an escape sequence will be handled as normal characters. The most common workaround to this problem is to write a script which includes a decimal code instead of an escape sequence. This way you can write, for example, short messages which may contain differently coded characters.

1.5.1 GSM Alphabet Tables and UCS2 Character Values
This section provides tables for the GSM 03.38 alphabet supported by the ME. Below any GSM character find the corresponding two byte character value of the UCS2 alphabet.
Figure 1.1: Main character table of GSM 03.38 alphabet
1. This code is an escape to the following extension of the 7 bit default alphabet table.
2. This code is not a printable character and therefore not defined for the UCS2 alphabet. It shall be treated as the accompanying control character.

Chapter 1 – Introduction
Figure 1.2: Extension character table of GSM 03.38 alphabet
1. This code value is reserved for the extension to another extension table. On receipt of this code, a receiving entity shall display a space until another extension table is defined.
2. This code represents the EURO currency symbol. The code value is the one used for the character ‘e’. Therefore a receiving entity which is incapable of displaying the EURO currency symbol will display the character ‘e’ instead.
3. This code is defined as a Page Break character and may be used for example in compressed CBS messages.
Any mobile which does not understand the 7 bit default alphabet table extension mechanism will treat this character as Line Feed.
In the event that an MS receives a code where a symbol is not represented in Figure 1.2, Extension character table of
GSM 03.38 alphabet the MS shall display the character shown in the main default 7 bit alphabet table (see Figure
1.1, Main character table of GSM 03.38 alphabet).

1.5.2 UCS2 and GSM Data Coding and Conversion for SMS Text Mode
This section provides basic information on how to handle input and output character conversion for SMS text mode and Remote-SAT if the internal (TA) and external (TE) character representation differ; e.g., if the Data Coding
Scheme and the TE character use different coding.
1.5.2.1 Implementing Output of SIM Data to Terminal (Direction TA to TE)
Used Character
Set
DCS = 7 bit
GSM
DCS = 8 bit
Data
GSM (1:1) 8 bit to IRA (1:2)
4
GSM to IRA (1:4)
Case 5
8 bit to IRA (1:4)
DCS = 16 bit
UCS2
Case 3
UCS2 to IRA (2:4)
Case 6
UCS2 to IRA (2:4)
Note: The ratio of SIM bytes to output bytes is given in parentheses.
Case 1
Every GSM character is sent to TE as it is (8-bit value with highest bit set to zero).
Example: 47’H, 53’H, 4D’H 47’H, 53’H, 4D’H, displayed as “GSM”.
Case 2
Every data byte will is sent to TE as 2 IRA characters each representing a halfbyte.
Example: B8’H (184 decimal) 42’H, 38’H, displayed as “B8”.
Case 3
Every 16-bit UCS2 value is sent to TE as 4 IRA characters.
Example: C4xA7’H (50343 decimal) 43’H, 34’H, 41’H, 37’H, displayed as “C4A7”.
Problem: An odd number of bytes leads to an error because there are always two bytes needed for each USC2 character.
Case 4
Every GSM character is sent to TE as 4 IRA characters to show UCS2 in text mode.
Example: 41’H (“A”) 30’H, 30’H, 34’H, 31’H, displayed as “0041”.
Case 5
Every data byte is sent to TE as IRA representation of UCS2 (similar to case 4).
Example: B2’H 30’H, 30’H, 42’H, 32’H, displayed as “00B2”.
Case 6
Every 16-bit value is sent to TE as IRA representation of it. It is assumed that number of bytes is even.
Example: C3x46’H 43’H, 33’H, 34’H, 36’H, displayed as “C346”.

Note: The ratio between the number of input characters and bytes stored on the SIM is given in parentheses.
Case 1
Every character is sent from TE to TA as GSM character (or ASCII with Hyperterminal).
Character value must be in range from 0 to 127 because of 7-bit GSM alphabet.
To reach maximum SMS text length of 160 characters in 140 bytes space characters will be compressed on SIM.
This must be set using the parameter <dcs> of AT+CSMP (add 64).
Example: “ABCDEFGH” typed is sent and stored uncompressed as 4142434445464748’H (stored compressed as 41E19058341E91’H).
Case 2
Every data byte is sent to TA as 2 IRA characters.
Maximum text length is 280 IRA characters which will be converted into 140 bytes SMS binary user data.
Example: “C8” typed is sent as 43’H, 38’H stored as C8’H.
Case 3
Every 16-bit value is sent to TA as 4 IRA characters.
Maximum text length is 280 IRA characters which will be converted into 70 UCS2 characters (16-bit each).
Number of IRA characters must be a multiple of four because always 4 half bytes are needed for a 16-bit value.
Example: “D2C8” typed is sent as 44’H, 32’H, 43’H, 38’H stored as D2C8’H.
Case 4
Every GSM character is sent to TA as 4 IRA characters representing one UCS2 character.
Example: To store text “ABC” using UCS2 character set you have to type “004100420043”.
This is sent as 30’H,30’H,34’H,31’H, 30’H,30’H,34’H,32’H, 30’H,30’H,34’H,33’H detected as IRA representation of 3 UCS2 characters, converted to GSM character set and stored as 41’H, 42’H, 43’H.
Maximum input is 640 IRA characters repesenting 160 UCS2 characters when compression is active. These are converted to 160 GSM 7-bit characters.
Without compression only 140 GSM characters can be stored which are put in as 560 IRA characters.
Values of UCS2 characters must be smaller than 80’H (128 decimal) to be valid GSM characters.
Number of IRA characters must be a multiple of four. Problems:
• “41” ¨ Error, there are four IRA characters (two bytes) needed
• “0000” Error, not an UCS2 character
• “4142” Error, value of UCS2 character > 7F’H
• “008B” Error, value of UCS2 character > 7F’H
This affects the maximum input length of a string)
Case 5
Every UCS2 character is sent as 4 IRA characters and is converted into two 8-bit values. This means that the first two characters have to be ‘00’.
Example: UCS2 character 009F’H typed as “009F” is sent as 30’H,30’H,39’H,46’H ¨ converted into 8-bit value
9F’H.
Maximum number of UCS2 characters is 140 which are represented by 560 IRA characters. Number of IRA characters must be a multiple of four.
Case 6
Every UCS2 character is sent as 4 IRA characters each and is converted into a 16-bit value again.
Example: UCS2 character 9F3A’H typed as “9F3A” is sent as 39’H,46’H,33’H,41’H converted into 9F3A’H.
Maximum number of UCS2 characters is 70 which are represented by 280 IRA characters. Number of IRA characters must be a multiple of four.
Invalid UCS2 values must be prevented.

Chapter 1 – Introduction
1.6 Serial Interface Flow Control
Flow control is essential to prevent loss of data or avoid errors when, in a data or fax call, the sending device is transferring data faster than the receiving side is ready to accept. When the receiving buffer reaches its capacity, the receiving device should be capable to cause the sending device to pause until it catches up.
There are basically two approaches to regulate data flow: Software flow control and hardware flow control. The High
Watermark of the input/output buffer should be set to approximately 60% of the total buffer size. The Low Watermark is recommended to be about 30%. The data flow should be stopped when the capacity rises close to the High
Watermark and resumed when it drops below the Low Watermark. The time required to cause stop and go results in a hysteresis between the High and Low Watermarks.
During Multiplex mode (AT+CMUX) it is recommended to use hardware flow control.
1.6.1 Software Flow Control (XON/OFF Handshake)
Software flow control sends different characters to stop (XOFF, decimal 19) and resume (XON, decimal 17) data flow.
The only advantage of software flow control is that three wires would be sufficient on the serial interface.
1.6.2 Hardware Flow Control (RTS/CTS Handshake)
Hardware flow control sets or resets the RTS/CTS wires. This approach is faster and more reliable, and therefore, the better choice. When the High Watermark is reached, CTS is set inactive until the transfer from the buffer has completed. When the Low Watermark is passed, CTS goes active again.
To achieve smooth data flow, ensure that the RTS/CTS lines are present on your application platform. The application should include options to enable RTS/CTS handshake with the GSM engine. This needs to be done with the AT command AT\Q3 - it is not sufficient to set RTS/CTS handshake in the used Terminal program only.
The default setting of the GSM engine is AT\Q0 (no flow control) which must be altered to AT\Q3 (RTS/CTS hardware handshake on). The setting is stored volatile and must be restored each time after the GSM engine was switched off.
AT\Q has no read command. To verify its current setting, simply check the settings of the active profile with AT&V.
Often, fax programs run an intialization procedure when started up. The intialization commonly includes enabling
RTS/CTS hardware handshake, eliminating the need to set AT\Q3 once again. However, before setting up a CSD call, you are advised to check that RTS/CTS handshake is set.
RTS/CTS hardware handshake must also be set if you want to take advantage of the CYCLIC SLEEP modes.
For further details refer to AT+CFUN.
1.7 Unsolicited Result Code Presentation
URC stands for Unsolicited Result Code and is a report message issued by the ME without being requested by the
TE; e.g., a URC is issued automatically when a certain event occurs. Hence, a URC is not issued as part of the response related to an executed AT command.
Typical events leading to URCs are incoming calls (“RING”), waiting calls, received short messages, changes in temperature, network registration etc.
A list of all URCs can be found in Section 20.7, Summary of Unsolicited Result Codes (URC).
To announce a pending URC transmission the ME will do the following:
• The ME activates its RING line (logic “1”) for one second; i.e., the line changes to physical “Low” level. This allows the TE to stay in power saving mode until an ME-related event requests service. If several URCs occur conincidentally or in quick succession, each URC triggers the RING line independently, although the line will not be activated between each URC. As a result, the RING line may stay low for more than one second.
If an incoming call is answered within less than one second (with ATA or if autoanswering is set to ATSO=1, then the RING line will be deactivated earlier.
The “^SHUTDOWN” URC will not activate the RING line.
• If the AT command interface is busy a “BREAK” will be sent immediately but the URC will not be issued until the line is free. This may happen if the URC is pending in the following cases:
∗ During the processing of an AT command (i.e., the time after the TE echoes back the first character “A” of an AT command just sent by itself until the ME responds with “OK” or “ERROR”).
∗ During a data call.
Please note that AT command settings may be necessary to enable in-band signaling; e.g., refer to
AT+CMER or AT+CNMI.
It is strongly recommended to use the multiplex mode to map logical communication channels onto the serial line of the Multi-Tech wireless modem, for details refer to [5] and AT command AT+CMUX. Doing so it is possible to use one channel to still process URCs while having a data call active on another.
Multi-Tech Systems, Inc. AT Commands for EDGE Modems (S000371B) 16
Chapter 1 – Introduction
For most of these messages, the ME needs to be configured whether or not to send a URC. Depending on the AT command, the URC presentation mode can be saved to the user defined profile (see AT&W), or needs to be activated every time you reboot the ME. Several URCs are not user definable, such as “^SYSSTART”, “^SYSSTART
<text>”, “^SHUTDOWN”.
If autobauding is enabled (as factory default mode or set with AT+IPR=0), URCs generated after restart will be output with 57600 bps until the ME has detected the current bit rate. The URCs “^SYSSTART”, “^SYSSTART
<text>”, however, are not presented at all. For details please refer to Section 4.9.1, Autobauding. To avoid problems we recommend to configure a fixed bit rate rather than using autobauding.
1.7.1 Communication between Customer Application and Multi-Tech Wireless
Modem
Leaving hardware flow control unconsidered the Customer Application (TE) is coupled with the Multi-Tech wireless modem (ME) via a receive and a transmit line.
Since both lines are driven by independent devices, collisions may (and will) happen; i.e., while the TE issues an AT command, the Multi-Tech wireless modem starts sending an URC. This will probably lead to the TE’s misinterpretation of the URC being part of the AT command’s response.
To avoid this conflict the following measures must be taken:
• If an AT command is finished (with “OK” or “ERROR”) the TE shall always wait at least 100 milliseconds before sending the next one.
This gives the Multi-Tech wireless modem the opportunity to transmit pending URCs and get necessary service.
Note that some AT commands may require more delay after “OK” or “ERROR” response, refer to the following command specifications for details.
• The TE shall communicate with the Multi-Tech wireless modem using activated echo (ATE1); i.e., the Multi-Tech wireless modem echoes characters received from the TE.
Hence, when the TE receives the echo of the first character “A” of the AT command just sent by itself it has control both over the receive and the transmit paths.

1.9 Errors and Messages
The command result codes “+CME ERROR: <err>” and “+CMS ERROR: <err>” indicate errors related to mobile equipment or network functionality.
The format of <err> can be either numeric or verbose and is selectable via AT+CMEE.
A result error code terminates the execution of the command and prevents the execution of all remaining commands that may follow on the same command line. If so, neither “ERROR” nor “OK” result codes are returned for these commands. A 30 seconds timeout will deliver “ERROR” when the input of a command is not complete.
Using the wrong command syntax may result in errors: For example, using the execute command syntax although the command has no execute format, causes “ERROR” to be returned. Likewise, using the write command syntax although the command has no write format causes “+CME ERROR: <err>” to be returned.

Chapter 2 – Configuration Commands
Chapter 2. Configuration
Commands
The AT commands described in this chapter allow the external application to determine the modem’s behavior under various conditions.
2.1 AT&F Set All Current Parameters to
Manufacturer Defaults
Description: AT&F sets all current parameters to the manufacturer defined profile. All defined GPRS contexts which are not activated or not online will be “undefined” (see AT+CGDCONT).
Exec Command Syntax: AT&F[value]
Response: OK
Parameter Description:
<value>
0
Notes:
Sets all TA parameters to manufacturer defaults.
• List of parameters reset to manufacturer default can be found in Section 20.6, Factory Default Settings
Restorable with AT&F.
• In addition to the default profile, you can store an individual one with AT&W. To alternate between the two profiles enter either ATZ (loads user profile) or AT&F (restores factory profile).
• Every ongoing or incoming call will be terminated.
2.2 AT&V Display Current Configuration
Description: AT&V returns the current parameter setting. The configuration varies depending on whether or not PIN authentication has been done and whether or not Multiplex mode is enabled (see AT+CMUX).
Exec Command Syntax: AT&V[value]
Response: Active Profile (See Section 2.2.1 AT&V responses)
OK
Parameter Description:
<Value>:
0
Notes:
Profile number
• The value of \Q (flow control) is also determined by the AT+IFC command. In case the value set by AT+IFC cannot be represented by a \Q equivalent, \Q255 will be displayed.
The parameters of AT^SMGO can only be displayed after the SMS data from the SIM have been read successfully for the first time. Reading starts after successful SIM authentication has been performed, and may take up to 30 seconds depending on the SIM used. While the read process is in progress, an attempt to read the parameter will result in empty values.
• The parameter of AT+CSDH will only be displayed in SMS text mode, see AT+CMGF.

Chapter 2 – Configuration Commands
2.9 AT+CFUN Set Phone Functionality
Description: This command serves to control the functionality level of the mobile equipment (ME). It can be used to reset the ME, to choose one of the SLEEP modes, or to return to full functionality.
Intended for power saving, SLEEP mode reduces the functionality of the ME to a minimum and thus minimizes the current consumption. SLEEP mode falls in two categories:
• NON-CYCLIC SLEEP mode <fun>=0
• and CYCLIC SLEEP modes, selectable as <fun>= 7 or 9.
NON-CYCLIC SLEEP mode permanently blocks the serial interface. The benefit of the CYCLIC
SLEEP mode is that the serial interface remains accessible and that, in intermittent wake-up periods, characters can be sent or received without terminating the selected mode. This allows the ME to wake up for the duration of an event and, afterwards, to resume power saving. Please refer to Section
2.8.1, Wake up the ME from SLEEP mode for a summary of all SLEEP modes and the different ways of waking up the module.
For CYCLIC SLEEP mode both the ME and the application must be configured to use hardware flow control. This is necessary since the CTS signal is set/reset every 0.9 to 2.7 seconds in order to indicate to the to the application when the UART is active. The default setting of hardware flow control is AT\Q0 which must be altered to AT\Q3.
For use after restart you are advised to add it to the user profile saved with AT&W.
Test Command Syntax: The test command returns the values of the supported parameters.
AT+CFUN=?
Response: +CFUN: (list of supported <fun>s) , (list of supported <rst>s)
OK
Read Command Syntax: The read command returns the current functionality value.
AT+CFUN?
Response: +CFUN: <fun>
OK
Write Command Syntax: The write command can be used to reset the ME, to choose one of the SLEEP modes or to return to full functionality.
AT+CFUN=<fun>, <rst>
Response: OK
ERROR
+CME ERROR
Parameter Descriptions:
<fun>
0 – NON-CYCLIC SLEEP mode:
In this mode, the AT interface is not accessible. Consequently, after setting <fun>=0, do not send further characters. Otherwise these characters remain in the input buffer and may delay the output of an unsolicited result code. The first wake-up event stops power saving and takes the ME back to full functionality level <fun>=1.
1 – Full functionality. Default
If the ME is in one of the CYCLIC SLEEP modes you can issue AT+CFUN=1 to stop power saving and return to full functionality.
Keep in mind that, unlike the reset command described below, this action does not restart the ME but only changes the level of functionality. See parameter <rst> for details on the reset.
7 – CYCLIC SLEEP mode:
In this mode, the serial interface is shortly enabled during paging. If characters are recognized on the serial interface, the ME stays active for 2 seconds after the last character was sent or received. ME exits
SLEEP mode only, if AT+CFUN=1 is entered.
9 – CYCLIC SLEEP mode:
In this mode, the serial interface is shortly enabled while CTS is active. If characters are recognized on the serial interface, the ME stays active after the last character was sent or received for at least the time, which can be configured by AT^SCFG=”PowerSaver/Mode9/Timeout”,<psm9to> (temporary wakeup).
In contrast to SLEEP mode 7 assertion of RTS can also be used to temporarily wake up the ME. In this case too, activity time is at least the time set with AT^SCFG=”PowerSaver/Mode9/Timeout”,<psm9to> .
ME exits SLEEP mode only, if AT+CFUN=1 is entered.
Multi-Tech Systems, Inc. AT Commands for EDGE Modems (S000371B) 23
Chapter 2 – Configuration Commands
<rst>
The parameter can only be used if the serial interface is enabled.
Due to the command syntax, you need to enter parameter <fun>, followed by <rst>, where <fun> is only a placeholder and has no effect. See examples below.
0 Placeholder for <fun> as stated above. Default.
1 ME resets and restarts to full functionality. After reset and restart, PIN 1 authentication is necessary
(AT+CPIN). If autobauding is enabled, it is recommended to wait 3 to 5 seconds before entering the first
AT command. For details on autobauding refer to Section 4.9.1, Autobauding.
Unsolicited Result Codes:
URC 1
^SYSSTART
Indicates that the ME has been started and is ready to operate. If autobauding is active (AT+IPR=0), the URC is not generated.
If the ME is configured to enter the Airplane mode after restart or reset the following URC is received on bootup:
“^SYSSTART AIRPLANE MODE”. In this mode, only the AT commands listed in Section 20.4, Availability of AT Commands Depending on Operating Mode of ME can be used. For details please refer to the AT^SCFG command, parameter <mapos>.
Notes:
• When a circuit-switched call is in progress, <fun>=7 or 9 can be activated without terminating the call.
However, setting <fun>=0, during a circuit-switched call immediately disconnects this call.
• To check whether power saving is on, you can query the status with the read command AT+CFUN? only if the module is in full functionality mode or in CYCLIC SLEEP mode. If available, you can also take advantage of the status LED controlled by the SYNC pin (see AT^SSYNC and [2]). With AT^SSYNC you can select different modes of LED signalization during SLEEP modes (See Section 18.6.1., ME Status Indicated by Status LED for details. However, the module can wake up temporarily from power saving without leaving its CYCLIC SLEEP mode (without changing +CFUN “<fun>”); e.g., for a network scan after a loss of radio coverage, or after receipt of serial data during CYCLIC SLEEP mode. During this “temporary wakeup state” the LED will operate as if the ME was in full functionality mode.
• Recommendation: In NON-CYCLIC SLEEP mode, you can set an RTC alarm to wake up the ME and return to full functionality. This is a useful approach because, in this mode, the AT interface is not accessible.
2.9.1 Wake up the ME from SLEEP Mode
A wake-up event is any event that causes the mobile equipment (ME) to draw more current. Depending on the selected mode, the wake-up event either switches the SLEEP mode off and takes the ME back to full functionality AT+CFUN=1, or activates the ME temporarily without terminating the selected SLEEP mode.
Definitions of the state transitions described in Table 2.3:
• Quit: ME exits SLEEP mode.
• Temporary: ME becomes active temporarily for the duration of the event and the mode-specific follow-up time after the last character was sent or received on the serial interface.
• No effect: Event is not relevant in the selected SLEEP mode. The ME does not wake up.

2.10 AT^SMSO Switch off Mobile Station
Description: AT^SMSO initiates the power-off procedure. High level of the module’s PWR_IND and the URC “^SHUTDOWN” notifies that the procedure has completed and the module has entered the POWER DOWN mode. Therefore, be sure not to disconnect the operating voltage until PWR_IND is High or until the URC “^SHUTDOWN” is displayed. Otherwise, you run the risk of losing data. For further details on how to turn off the module see the [2].
Exec Command Syntax: ^SMSO
Response(s): ^SMSO: MS OFF, OK
Test Command Syntax: AT^SMSO=?
Response: OK
Unsolicited Result Code:
^SHUTDOWN
Indicates that the power-off procedure is finished and the module will be switched off in less than 1 second.
Notes:
• Do not send any other AT command after AT^SMSO.
• If AT^SMSO is entered on one of the Multiplexer channels, the ME closes the Multiplexer channels, terminates the Multiplexer, and deactivates all other functions. Then the URC “^SHUTDOWN” will be issued on the physical serial interface (ASC0). The URC will be transmitted at the bit rate last activated on ASC0 for use with the Multiplexer driver.
2.11 AT+GCAP Request Complete TA Capabilities
List
Description: AT+GCAP returns a list of additional capabilities.
Exec Command Syntax: AT+GCAP
Response(s): +GCAP: <name>, OK
Test Command Syntax: AT+GCAP=?
Response: OK
Parameter Description:
<name> e.g., +CGSM,+FCLASS
Note:
• +CGSM: The response text shows which GSM commands of the ETSI standard are supported.
2.12 AT+CMEE Mobile Equipment Error Message
Format
Description: AT+CMEE controls the format of the error result codes that indicates errors related to the
Multi-Tech wireless modem’s functionality. Format can be selected between plain
“ERROR” output, error numbers or verbose “+CME ERROR: <err>” and “+CMS ERROR:
<err>” messages.
Possible error result codes are listed in Table 2.6, General “CME ERROR” Codes (GSM
07.07), Table 2.5, GPRS related “CME ERROR” Codes (GSM 07.07) and Table 2.8, SMS related “CMS ERROR” Codes (GSM 07.05).
In Multiplexer mode, the setting applies only to the logical channel where selected. The setting on the other channels may differ.

Multi-Tech Systems, Inc. AT Commands for EDGE Modems (S000371B) 28
Chapter 2 – Configuration Commands
2.13 AT+CSCS Select TE Character Set
Description: The AT+CSCS write command informs the TA which character set <chset> is used by the
TE. This enables the TA to convert character strings correctly between TE and ME character sets. See also Section 1.5, Supported character sets.
Note that when the TA-TE interface is set to 8-bit operation and the used TE alphabet is 7bit, the highest bit will be set to zero.
Test Command Syntax: AT+CSCS=?
Read Command Syntax: AT+CSCS?
Read Response: +CSCS: <chset>
OK
Write Command Syntax: AT+CSCS=[<chset>]
Write Response: OK
Parameter Description:
<chset>
“GSM“
“UCS2“
GSM default alphabet (GSM 03.38 subclause 6.2.1). Default.
This setting may cause software flow control problems since the codes used to stop and resume data flow (XOFF = decimal 19, XON = decimal 17) are interpreted as normal characters.
16-bit universal multiple-octet coded character set (ISO/IEC10646 [32]); UCS2 character strings are converted to hexadecimal numbers from 0000 to FFFF; e.g., “004100620063” equals three 16-bit characters with decimal values 65, 98 and 99, $(AT R97)$
2.14 AT^SCFG Extended Configuration Settings
Description: AT^SCFG queries and configures various settings of the Multi-Tech wireless modem.
AT^SCFG read command returns a list of all supported parameters and their current values.

^SYSSTART AIRPLANE MODE
This URC is issued each time the Airplane mode is activated, no matter whether Airplane mode is set with parameter <map>="on" or <mapos>="on". The URC notifies the user that only the AT commands supported in
Airplane mode are accessible. After leaving the Airplane mode the URC "^SYSSTART" indicates that the ME has returned to Normal mode and the full set of AT commands is accessible again.
Parameter Descriptions:
<gs0aa> GPRS ATS0 with Attach
This parameter can be used to control the behaviour of ATS0.
Parameter is global for all interfaces, volatile and will not be reset by AT&F.
“on“ When ATS0=<n> (<n>>0) is received, the MT will attempt to perform a GPRS attach. This is the powerup default value of this parameter.
“off“ When ATS0=<n> (<n>>0) is received, the MT will not attempt to perform a GPRS attach.
<gaa> GPRS with Auto Attach
This parameter can be used to control whether the ME will perform a GPRS attach immediately after registering to the network or not. If the setting is changed to “enabled” and the ME is not attached yet, it will not initiate an attach immediately but after the next registration to the network.
Parameter is global for all interfaces, non volatile and will not be reset by AT&F.
“disabled“ GPRS auto attach is disabled. Default.
“enabled“ GPRS auto attach is enabled.
Multi-Tech Systems, Inc. AT Commands for EDGE Modems (S000371B) 31
Chapter 2 – Configuration Commands
<groid> Ring on incoming GPRS IP data packets
This parameter can be used to control the behavior of the RING line for incoming IP packets in GPRS online mode.
Parameter is local for the interface, volatile and will not be reset by AT&F.
“on“ If ME is in power saving mode 7 or 9 (see AT+CFUN) and hardware flow control is in use (AT\Q3) and RTS line is inactive and there are incoming IP packets for a GPRS context which is online, then the RING line will be activated once, for a time which is configured by the parameter
“URC/Ringline/ActiveTime” (<urat>). The RING line which will be used, can be configured by the parameter “URC/Ringline” (<uri>).
“off“ RING line is not activated for incoming IP packets. This is the powerup default value of this parameter; it is not stored at power down.
<map> MEopMode/Airplane: Enable/Disable Airplane Mode During Operation
The two parameters <map> and <mapos> can be used to enable/disable the Airplane mode. Airplane mode shuts down the radio part of the ME (PA and receiver), causes the ME to log off from the GSM/GPRS network and disables all AT commands whose execution requires a radio connection. A list of AT commands supported during Airplane mode can be found in Section 20.4, Availability of AT Commands Depending on Operating Mode of ME. The benefit of Airplane mode is that, at locations where no RF emission is allowed (typically airplanes, hospitals etc.), the subscriber can continue using network-independent features rather than powering off the entire device (e.g. a PDA or smartphone).
If the subscriber tries to use an AT command not available in Airplane mode the response "+CME ERROR:
Unsupported AT command" is returned.
Parameter <map> allows entering or leaving the Airplane mode any time during operation, eliminating the need to enter the SIM PIN again. It can be used no matter whether the parameter <mapos> is "on" or "off".
Parameter <map>is global for all interfaces, volatile and will not be reset by AT&F.
“on“ Activates Airplane mode and shuts down the radio part of the ME. The URC "^SYSSTART
“off“
AIRPLANE MODE" appears.
Deactivates Airplane mode, wakes up the radio part of the ME and restores access to networkdependent AT commands. The URC "^SYSSTART" appears.
<mapos> MEopMode/Airplane: Airplane Mode Upon ME Restart
There are two ways to enter Airplane mode upon restart: One is using AT^SCFG with <mapos> as described below.
Another approach is configuring the ME to restart into Airplane mode at a scheduled time. In this case, use the
AT+CALA command, set an alarm time and then switch the ME off. When the alarm time is reached the ME wakes up to Airplane mode, no matter whether <mapos> was set "on" or "off".
Parameter <mapos> is global for all interfaces, non volatile and will not be reset by AT&F.
“on“ Causes the ME to enter the Airplane mode each time the ME is restarted or reset.
“off“
After restart or reset, the URC "^SYSSTART AIRPLANE MODE" appears and parameter <map> is
"on". The SIM PIN can be entered using the AT+CPIN command. This enables the ME to read data from the SIM and give access to SIM PIN dependent AT commands which are available in Airplane mode, such as phonebook commands or several SMS commands. To notify the user when SIM data are accessible it is recommended to activate the "^SSIM READY" URC and store its presentation mode to the user profile with AT&W.
To return from Airplane mode to Normal mode set the parameter <map> to "off" as described above. If PIN authentication was already done, the ME will try now to register to the GSM network.
Airplane mode will not be activated after ME restart or reset. Default.
<psm9to> Power Saving Mode 9 Timeout
This parameter can be used to query or configure the wake up time for power saving mode 9 (see AT+CFUN with parameter <fun>=9). The granularity of the timeout value is 100ms (i.e. a value of 10 equal 1 second).
The minimum timeout value that can be applied is 5, but accuracy is only guaranteed for timeout values greater than 20.
Parameter is global for the ME, volatile and will not be reset by AT&F.
5.....36000 (default is 20)
<rba> Allowed Radio Band(s)
The parameters <rba>, <rbp> and <rbc> allow the subscriber to set and query preferences for selecting frequency bands.
Before changing <rba> or <rbp> ensure that no network activity occurs. The write command cannot be executed when making a call or sending/receiving short messages.
Execution of the write command causes the ME to deregister from and re-register to the network, no matter whether the selected <rbp> or <rba> setting really changes. Therefore, it is useful to have the URC “+CREG” enabled.
The status of the SIM PIN authentication remains unchanged, eliminating the need to enter the SIM PIN again after the change.

The parameter <rba> determines the maximum range of the bands allowed. The value may be one of the single bands listed below or all valid combinations from the values 1, 2, 4 and 8. Thus, the value range of
<rba> is “1”..”15”. To select or deselect a band calculate the sum of the values of all desired bands and enter the resulting value. For example, for 1800 MHz (2) and 850 MHz (8) please enter the value (10).
Parameter <rba> is global for the ME, non-volatile and will not be reset by AT&F.

<rbp> Preferred Radio Band(s)
The parameter <rbp> may be one of the single bands or one of the four dual-band combinations listed below.
All preferred bands must be contained in the range of allowed bands (see <rba>), invalid combinationsare not accepted. To give priority to a certain single band or band combination and suppress all others simply select the same value both for <rbp> and <rba>.
<rbp> primarily serves to trigger the network search; i.e., it is only used one time for searching and selecting a network. As the currently used band depends on the availability of the allowed networks, the value indicated by
<rbc> may be different from <rbp>. Also, the next time a network search is necessary (for example, after restart) the ME will first try to reselect the network last used, which may be different from the value of <rbp> last given.
Therefore, the setting of <rbp> will not be saved.
The value range of <rbp> is “1...12”, but only the band(s) selections listed below are allowed. Trying to set an unsupported value will be denied with “ERROR”. To select or deselect a band calculate the sum of the values of all desired bands and enter the resulting value. For example, for GSM 1800 MHz (2) and GSM 850 MHz (8) please enter the value (10).

The band(s) indicated with <rbc> are all allowed bands found at a location area. This means, if prompted to select a network the ME will search for these networks only. The value can be either a single band or a dualband combination.
<rbc> is only a response parameter returned either after sending the read command AT^SCFG? or writing
AT^SCFG=”Radio/Band”.
In addition to <rbc> and to allow the subscriber to be notified whenever the selected band changes it is recommended to activate the “+CIEV” (see Section 3.3, AT^SIND).

According to 3GPP Rel99, output power reduction for multiple TX slots is a mandatory feature. The amount of power reduction is configurable up to 3.0dB for 2TX, 4.8dB for 3Tx to 6dB for 4TX. To optimize heat dissipation, power consumption, and SAR values, it is recommended to use full power reduction (value “3”).

<succ> CIEV Call Status Indication
This parameter can be used to control the behaviour of URC “+CIEV: call”. See also AT+CIND, AT+CMER and
Section 7.1, Call Status Information.
Parameter is global for all interfaces and will not be reset by AT&F.
“restricted“ URC “+CIEV: call” will be issued only when a Call Status transition ends in state “active” or
“unknown”. This is the powerup default value of this parameter; it is not stored at power down.
(see Section 7.1, Call Status Information) for a call in the list of active calls.
“verbose“ URC “+CIEV: call” will be issued when any state transition (including transitions beginning or ending in state “unknown”) occurs in the list of active calls, or when a traffic channel is established.
<sucs> SLCC Call Status Indication
This parameter can be used to control the behaviour of URC “^SLCC”. See also AT^SLCC and Section 7.1,
Call Status Information.
Parameter is global for all interfaces and will not be reset by AT&F.
“restricted“ URC “^SLCC” will be issued only when a Call Status transition ends in state “active” or
“unknown” (see Section 7.1, Call Status Information) for a call in the list of active calls.
“verbose“ URC “^SLCC” will be issued when any state transition (including transitions beginning or ending in state “unknown”) occurs in the list of active calls, or when a traffic channel is established. This is the powerup default value of this parameter; it is not stored at power down.
<uri> URC RING Line
This parameter can be used to control the behaviour of the RING line to indicate URCs (both for idle interfaces and, if configured by the parameter “URC/Datamode/Ringline”, if link is reserved) and, if configured, the indicator for incoming IP packets (see parameter “GPRS/RingOnIncomingData” (<groid>).
Parameter is local for the interface, volatile and will not be reset by AT&F.
“off“ URC is not indicated by RING.
“local“ URC will be indicated by an activated RING line of the interface on which the URC appears. This is the powerup default value of this parameter; it is not stored at power down.
<udri> URC Datamode RING Line
This parameter specifies whether RING or BREAK is used for the signaling of URCs when the TA-TE link is reserved (e.g., during circuit-switched data calls, fax connections, in GPRS data mode or during the execution of an AT command).
Parameter is global for all interfaces, volatile and will not be reset by AT&F.
“off“ URC will be indicated by BREAK. Off is the powerup default value; it is not stored at power down.
“on“ URC is indicated by an active RING line for a time. It is configured by “URC/Ringline/ActiveTime”
(<urat>). The RING line, which will be used, can be configured by “URC/Ringline” (<uri>).
<urat> URC RING line Active Time
This parameter can be used to control how long the RING line is activated to indicate URCs (both for idle interfaces and, if configured by “URC/Datamode/Ringline” (<udri>), to indicate if link is reserved) and, if configured by “GPRS/RingOnIncomingData”, to indicate incoming GPRS IP data packets (<groid>).
Parameter is global for all interfaces, volatile and will not be reset by AT&F.
“0“
“1“
RING line will be activated for a time between 4.6 and 9.2 ms.
RING line will be activated for about 100ms.
“2“ RING line will be activated for about 1s. This is the powerup default value of this parameter; it is not stored at power down.

Commands
The AT Commands described in this chapter allow the external application to obtain various status information from the Multi-Tech wireless modem.
3.1 AT+CMER Mobile Equipment Event Reporting
Description: This command controls details of the “+CIEV” URC presentation related to AT^SIND and
AT+CIND. If registered via these commands the URCs are sent whenever a value of the related indicator changes.
In addition, AT+CMER controls “^SLCC” URCs related to AT^SLCC. For details refer to Call Status
Information, AT^SLCC and AT^SCFG, parameter <sucs>.
The read command returns the URC presentation mode <mode> and among others, the indicator event reporting status <ind>.
The write command enables and disables the presentation of “+CIEV: <indDescr>, <indValue>1[,
<ind-Value>2]” URCs. <indDescr> refers to the name of a “+CIEV” indicator and <indValue> is the new value of this indicator. After AT+CMER has been switched on, URCs for all registered indicators will be issued. See examples provided in Section 3.2, AT+CIND and Section 3.3,
AT^SIND.

Name of indicator; for a list of all supported indicators please refer to AT+CIND and AT^SIND.
<indValue>
Value of indicator; for a list of all values for the supported indicators please refer to AT+CIND and AT^SIND.
Note:
If the ME operates on different instances (MUX channels 1, 2, 3 or ASC0) avoid different settings for routing and indicating SMS. For example, if messages shall be routed directly to one instance of the TE (set with AT+CNMI,
AT^SSDA), it is not possible to activate the presentation of URCs with AT+CMER or AT+CNMI on another instance.
Any attempt to activate settings that conflict with existing settings on another interface, will result in CME ERROR, or accordingly CMS ERROR.
Multi-Tech Systems, Inc. AT Commands for EDGE Modems (S000371B) 36
Chapter 3 – Status Control Commands
3.2 AT+CIND Indicator control
Description: The AT+CIND command controls the presentation of Indicator Event Reports related to various functions such as signal quality, service availability, sound generation, indication of unread short messages, full SMS storage, call in progress or roaming activities.
Use of AT+CIND has become outdated. Rather we recommend the more powerful AT^SIND command which is easier to use and provides additional indicators. All indicators provided by
AT+CIND can be handled with AT^SIND as well.
AT+CIND supports two ways to get the values related to indicators:
• One approach is to query the current status of each indicator by using the read command
AT+CIND?. It returns the status no matter whether the indicator has been registered with the write command AT+CIND=[<mode>[,<mode>[,...]]].
• The other way is an event-driven notification based on the “+CIEV” URCs. In this case, the ME will automatically send a message to the application, whenever the value of an indicator changes. The application should be designed to react adequately when receiving a URC.
The presentation of these URCs depends on two settings:
∗ The indicators must be registered with the write command
AT+CIND=[<mode>[,<mode>[,...]]]. When the ME is switched on all of them are in registered mode. Any indicator can be excluded if deregistered with <mode>=0. To register or deregister an indicator the AT+CIND write command requires to type the value <mode>=1 or 0 exactly at the position where the indicator is located in the list.
This is not necessary with AT^SIND which allows to specify indicators by name. See examples below.
∗ The presentation of the registered indicators must be enabled with AT+CMER.

More indications are available via AT^SIND. Therefore use of AT^SIND for control of all indications is recommended.
The following indications are accessible via AT+CIND:
“signal“ Signal quality (0..7). The indicated value is the bit error rate of the signal received. Bit errors are estimated values. See also AT+CSQ.
“service“
“sounder“
Service availability (0-1)
0: Not registered to any network
1: Registered to home network or, if “roam”=1 then registered to another network
Sounder activity (0-1)
Reports every event that causes the ME to generate a tone.
Value 1 means for example:
Incoming call – ME is ringing. Note that the URC “+CIEV: sounder” will be output only if ringing tones are activated with AT^SRTC.
Waiting call – ME generates waiting call tone (if call waiting is enabled).
Outgoing call – ME generates Call Progress tone.
Outgoing call – ME generates BUSY tone.
The value changes to 0 when the tone stops.
“message“ Unread short message at memory location <mem1> (0-1); refer to AT+CPMS

Call in progress (0-1). Indicator value is “1” if at least one call is in state “active” or “held”.
Depending on the parameter <succ> selected with AT^SCFG the indicator “call” will be issued
• when a state transition ends in state “active” or state “unknown”, if <succ>=”restricted”,
• when any state transition (including transitions beginning or ending in state “unknown”) occurs in the list of active calls or when a traffic channel is established, if
<succ>=”verbose”.

Indicator is deregistered. The indicator will not be presented as “+CIEV” URC, but can be queried with AT+CIND?.
Indicator is registered, indicator event report allowed. Default. This is also the powerup default of this parameter; it is not stored at power down.
Notes:
• Due to its restrictive value range, indicator “call” does not clearly reflect specific call states (such as alerting, active, held etc.), but rather serves to trigger the application to retrieve the new call status from the list of current calls with the AT commands AT^SLCC, AT+CLCC or AT^SCNI.
• If AT^SCFG setting <succ>=”verbose”, indicator “call” will be issued also when a traffic channel is established, or when a call enters states “terminating” or “dropped” (see Call Status Information). In these cases, the relevant information about the cause of the display is available only from AT command AT^SLCC.

3.3 AT^SIND Extended Indicator Control
Description: Designed for extended event indicator control AT^SIND
• offers greater flexibility than the standard command AT+CIND,
• offers several extra indicators,
• can show the current status of all indicators supported by AT+CIND and AT^SIND,
• can be used to register or deregister the indicators of both commands,
• displays all indicator event reports via “+CIEV” URCs.
Presentation mode of the generated URCs is controlled via AT+CMER.
The AT^SIND read command provides a list of all indicators supported by AT+CIND and AT^SIND.
Each indicator is represented with its registration mode and current value.
The AT^SIND write command can be used to select a single indicator in order to modify its registration and to view the current value.

1 Value 1 means for example:
Outgoing voice call: Indicator appears when dialing starts.
Incoming voice call: Indicator appears prior to the RING result code.
Multi-Tech Systems, Inc. AT Commands for EDGE Modems (S000371B) 39
Chapter 3 – Status Control Commands
“vmwait1“ Voice Message Waiting Indication for line 1
0 Notifies that no new voice message is available, and is provided by the service center to clear the voice message indication after the subscriber has retrieved all voice messages.
1 Notifies the subscriber that the mailbox contains one or several messages.
“vmwait1” and “vmwait2” indicate the receipt of a special short message with a Voice
Message Waiting Indicator. The service must be provisioned by the operator.
The numbers 1 or 2 in “vmwait1” and “vmwait2” are related to the two lines of the Alternate
Line Service (ALS), also defined in CPHS Phase 2 standard. For further details refer to the
AT^SALS command.
The presentation mode of the indicator varies with the operator: If more than one message are waiting, some operators only indicate the first one, others deliver the indicator each time a new voice message is put into the mailbox.
After the subscriber has retrieved all voice messages the service center automatically sends another message indication which provides the value 0.
Some operators may also send the number of waiting voice messages along with the indication. In this case, this number will be displayed by the Multi-Tech wireless modem as part of the URC. For example, “+CIEV: vmwait1,1,5” notifies that five new voice messages are waiting. However, it should be noted that neither the read command AT^SIND? nor the write command AT^SIND=<mode>,2 display the number of waiting messages.
The “vmwait” indicators do not apply if a network provider signals new voice mail(s) via standard SMS. In this case the indicator “message” will be displayed (see AT+CIND).
“vmwait2“ Voice Message Waiting Indication for line 2
0 See description of “vmwait1”.
1 See description of “vmwait1”.
“ciphcall“ Ciphering Status Change Indication
0 Current call or SMS is not ciphered.
1 Current call or SMS is ciphered.
As stated in GSM specifications 02.07 and 02.09 the ciphering indicator feature allows the
Multi-Tech wireless modem to detect that ciphering is not switched on and to indicate this to the user.
The ciphering indicator feature may be disabled by the home network operator setting data in the “administrative data” field (EFAD) in the SIM, as defined in GSM 11.11.
If this feature is not disabled by the SIM, then whenever a connection is in place, which is, or becomes unenciphered, an indication shall be given to the user. This enables the user’s decision how to proceed.
Read command returns valid ciphering status only if a call is in progress or active.
“eons“
If EF
AD
setting disables the ciphering indicator feature read command always indicates a ciphered link and no URC presentaion will take place.
The following restrictions apply if the same serial channel is used for AT^SIND
“ciphcall” indication and for the action triggering this URC. In general, the recommended solution is to use a dedicated channel for all status signalling via URCs.
• If an unciphered mobile originated SMS is performed, AT^SIND “ciphcall”
URCs on the same serial channel will be issued after the related “OK” and indicate the ciphering state at this time.
• If an unciphered mobile originated data call is performed, AT^SIND “ciphcall”
URCs on the same serial channel will be issued after the interface is not longer blocked by the call (call is released or temporarily stopped) and indicate the ciphering state at this time.
Enhanced Operator Name String (EONS) Indication.
The Enhanced Operator Name String indicator feature allows the Multi-Tech wireless modem to output various operator names for different PLMN identities via URC. It also allows the output of a different operator name based on a subset of the registered network by using a range of Location Area Codes (LACs) or a single LAC.
The presentation of the “eons” indicator is determined by network activity. For example, the indicator appears every time a location update occurs or a NITZ information is sent, no matter whether or not the status of the EONS information has changed. This means that the same EONS information may be reported several times.
The EONS tables are stored in the SIM card and will be read at power-up.
This is a list of the SIM Elementary Files that are affected by the introduction of EONS feature in the SIM card:
EF
EF
SST
OPL
EF
PNN
(SIM Service Table) - describes which features are active.
(Operator PLMN List) - contains the PLMN identification and location ID together with the index of the corresponding PNN record.
(PLMN Network Name) - contains the full and short form version of the network name for the registered PLMN.
Multi-Tech Systems, Inc. AT Commands for EDGE Modems (S000371B) 40
Chapter 3 – Status Control Commands
“nitz“
EF
ONString
If the Operator Name Source is CPHS Operator Name String long and short form, refer to <indValue>, the following two SIM Elementary Files are used:
(Operator Name String) - contains the name of the PLMN operator who issued the SIM.
EF
OPShort
(Operator Name Short form) - contains a short form of the name of the
PLMN operator who issued the SIM.
Network Identity and Time Zone indication This indicator shows the time relevant information elements of an MM Information (MMI) or GMM Information (GMMI) message received from the network (see GSM 24.008, ch. 9.2.15a and 9.4.19). The network usually sends a NITZ indicator when the mobile attaches to the network, when it enters a location area with different time zone or when a daylight change occurs.
A NITZ indicator may consist of the following parameters: Universal Time (UT), local Time
Zone (TZ), Daylight Saving Time (DST). All information elements of MMI/GMMI are optional and, therefore, the presentation of the parameters <nitzUT>, <nitzTZ>, <nitzDST> varies with the network. For example, the network may send all three parameters UT, TZ, DST, or only UT and TZ or only TZ.
UT is indicated in usual date/time format and represents the current world time (GMT) at the moment when sent.
TZ is given as a positive (east) or negative (west) offset from UT in units of 15 minutes.
DST shows the number of hours added to the local TZ because of daylight saving time
(summertime) adjustment. Usually DST is 1 hour but it can be also 2 hours in certain locations.
Example for time and time zone with DST:
+CIEV: nitz,”04/07/23,13:39:20”,-28,1
In this example TZ is -28, showing a time offset of -7 hours (west) to Universal Time/GMT
(which never changes for DST). DST is 1 which indicates that one hour was added to TZ because of Daylight Saving Time. If a network does not send the DST parameter the TZ value would be -32 (8 hours west) as would be done in winter:
+CIEV: nitz,”04/11/23,13:39:20”,-32
Please be aware that despite the last NITZ value can be looked up again via “AT^SIND=nitz,2” the returned values may be out of date. Especially the UT value is obsolete because there is no internal NITZ clock and therefore no continuation of UT.
NITZ values are lost when the module detaches from network. Also when a manual network selection fails and the module automatically falls back to the previous network the NITZ values cannot be recalled. Nevertheless an indicated time zone is valid until a new MMI/GMMI will trigger another NITZ indication.
“simstatus“ SIM Status Indication
The SIM Status indicator allows the MC75 to output the status of the subscriber identity module (SIM) via URC.
0 SIM card removed.

SIM PIN1 not required - SIM card unlocked. MC75 automatically registers to the
GSM network without requesting SIM PIN1.
SIM PIN1 required - SIM card locked. SIM PIN1 must be entered to enable MC75 to register to the GSM network.
Personalization info ready - CHV (Card Holder Verification) data has been verified (if required).
“band“ Currently selected frequency band or band combination.
1...14 Identical with <rbc> of AT^SCFG. The value indicates the band(s) currently available for network selection, depending on the network configuration either a single band or a dualband combination. The URC appears whenever the status of the currently available band(s) changes, for example after using the AT^SCFG command to change the “Radio/Band” parameters <rba> or <rbp>. Please see
AT^SCFG for further detail about the feature “Radio/Band” selection.
<indValue>
Integer type value in the range stated above for the corresponding <indDescr>.
Notes specific to the EONS feature:
If the indicator is “eons”, the <indValue> is a type associated to the operator name according to GSM 22.101
[23]. This type depends on the source of the operator name.
Priority of types associated to the operator names is defined as follows (the type listed first has the highest priority). If a type cannot be indicated the next one will be used.
0 Not registered.
1 EF-OPL and EF-PNN (alphanumeric format, can contain up to 24 characters.)
2 Operator Name String in long and short format according to Common PCN Handset Specification
(CPHS) (alphanumeric format, can contain up to 16 characters).
Multi-Tech Systems, Inc. AT Commands for EDGE Modems (S000371B) 41
Chapter 3 – Status Control Commands
3 Name information received by the NITZ service long and short form (alphanumeric format, can contain up to 16 characters). The short form will be displayed only if EF
OPShort
from CPHS is available.
4 Any operator name stored internal to the ME (alphanumeric format, can contain up to 16 characters).
5 Broadcast MCC-MNC (numeric format which consists of a 3-digit country code plus a 2- or 3-digit network code).
The name information received by the NITZ service (type 3) will be saved in the non-volatile RAM. It replaces the operator name of the registered PLMN (type 4) or its numeric form (type 5) stored in the ME. However, when after restart the ME registers to another PLMN that is not equal to the saved NITZ name information, the
NITZ name information must be invalidated.
If the type is 2, 4 or 5, AT+COPS with the appropriate <mode> displays the same operator name.
<mode>
0 Indicator is deregistered; i.e., no such indicator event report (URC) will be issued. <mode>=0 is power-up and factory default of indicators defined by AT^SIND only.
1 Indicator is registered.
• Indicator event reports are controlled via AT+CMER.
• All indicators can be registered or deregistered via AT^SIND, but different default settings apply:
Power-up and factory default of the indicators supported by AT+CIND is <mode>=1, while, as stated above, indicators defined by AT^SIND only are set to <mode>=0.
2 Query the registration status and the current value of a single indicator type.

0 Disable flow control. Default.
1 XON/XOFF software flow control
2 Only CTS by DCE (TA)
3 RTS/CTS hardware flow control
Recommended for the following procedures: incoming or outgoing data calls, fax calls, MUX mode.
Often, the initialization routine of Fax programs includes enabling RTS/CTS handshake, eliminating the need to issue AT\Q3 once again.
Notes:
• When using XON/XOFF flow control (AT\Q1) in online mode, +++ should not be used while the data transmission is paused with XOFF. Before entering the command mode with +++ the paused transmission should be resumed using the XON character.
• Flow Control can be set by also using AT+IFC.
4.2 AT&C Set Circuit Data Carrier Detect (DCD)
Function Mode
Description: The AT&C command determines how the state of circuit 109 (DCD) relates to the detection of received line signal from the distant end.
Exec Command Syntax: AT&C[value]

Note: In case of using the command without parameter, <value> is set to 0.
4.6 AT+ICF Serial Interface Character Framing
Description: The command AT+ICF controls the serial interface character framing format and parity used for receiving and transmitting. The following settings are supported:
• 7 bits, even parity, 1 stop bit (AT+ICF=5,1)
• 7 bits, odd parity, 1 stop bit (AT+ICF=5,0)
• 8 bits, even parity, 1 stop bit (AT+ICF=2,1)
• 8 bits, no parity, 1 stop bit (AT+ICF=3)
• 8 bits, odd parity, 1 stop bit (AT+ICF=2,0)
• 8 bits, no parity, 2 stop bits (AT+ICF=1)
Test Command Syntax: AT+ICF=?
Response(s): +ICF: (list of supported <format>s), (list of supported <parity>s)
OK
Read Command Syntax: AT+ICF?
Response(s): +ICF: <format>[, <parity>]
OK
Write Command Syntax: AT+ICF=[<format>][, <parity>]
Response(s): OK
ERROR
Parameter Descriptions:
<format>
Specifies the character format used for receiving and transmitting.
1
2
8 data 0 parity 2 stop
8 data 1 parity 1 stop
3
5
8 data 0 parity 1 stop
7 data 1 parity 1 stop
<parity>
Specifies the method of calculating the parity bit, if a parity bit is supported by <format>.
If <format> does not support parity, this parameter has to be omitted.
0 odd even 1
Notes:
• If AT+ICF modes 7E1 or 7O1 are set, the parity bit will by default not be transmitted over the air. If the remote party expects the parity bit to be transmitted, additional settings are required via AT^STPB.
• When using a bit rate of 300 bps there must be a delay of 500ms before entering the next command. At bit rates of 1200 bps the delay must be 300ms. For higher bit rates use of the default delay is sufficient.
• The Multi-Tech wireless modem’s autobaud feature detects the bit rate currently used by the TE. However, this detection suffers some limitations described in Section 4.9.1, Autobauding. If autobauding is enabled, the
AT+ICF read command does not show the current character framing, but the character framing that will be used when autobauding is disabled.
Multi-Tech Systems, Inc. AT Commands for EDGE Modems (S000371B) 52
Chapter 4 – Serial Interface Control Commands
• For compatibility reasons, the command can be used in Multiplex mode, though the settings will not take effect. Please note that changes made on multiplex channel 1 will be saved with AT&W and will become active when restarting the ME after AT^SMSO.
• To start the multiplexer it is necessary to set the character framing to 8 bits, no parity and 1 stop bit.
• If a <format> is selected without parity (e.g. <format>=3) and you try to activate a format with parity (e.g.,
<format>=2), you need to explixitly set the parameter <parity> (e.g. AT+ICF=2,1). Otherwise you will get
‘+CME ERROR: invalid index’. This is because for <format>=3, the parameter <parity> is set to the internal value ‘no parity’ which is not supported by <format>=2. (Remember that if an optional parameter is omitted for which no default is stated in this specification, the value of the parameter remains unchanged).
4.7 AT+IFC Set Flow Control Separately for Data
Directions
Description: The command AT+IFC can be used to set or query the data flow control separately for each data direction. In contrast to this, flow control settings made with AT\Q are valid in both data directions.
Test Command Syntax: AT+IFC=?
Response(s): +IFC: (list of supported <TEflowcontrol>s), (list of supported <TAflowcontrol>s)

Notes:
• When using XON/XOFF flow control (AT+IFC=1,x or AT+IFC=3,x) in data mode, +++ should not be used while the data transmission is paused with XOFF. Before entering the command mode with +++ the paused transmission should be resumed using the XON character.
• For compatibility reasons, the AT+IFC command can be used in Multiplex mode, though the settings will not take effect. However, be aware that whenever you use the AT+IFC write command in Multiplex mode and then save the current configuration to the user profile with AT&W, the changed AT+IFC setting will become active after restart.
4.8 AT+ILRR Set TE-TA Local Rate Reporting
Description: The command AT+ILRR controls whether or not the intermediate result code “+ILRR” is transmitted from the TA to the TE while a connection is being set up. The result code indicates the local rate. It is issued before the final result code of the connection; e.g., CONNECT is transmitted to the TE.
Test Command Syntax: AT+ILRR=?

4.9 AT+IPR Set Fixed Local Rate
Description: The command AT+IPR can be used to set or query the TE-TA interface bit rate.
The test command returns the values of the supported automatically detectable bit rates and the values of the supported fixed bit rates.
The read command returns the current bit rate of the interface.
The write command specifies the bit rate to be used for the interface. When you set a fixed-rate, make sure that both TE (DTE) and TA (DCE) are configured to the same rate. When you select autobauding, the TA will automatically recognize the bit rate currently used by the TE.
The setting is stored in the non-volatile memory and will be used whenever the engine is powered up again. However, in case of autobaud mode (AT+IPR=0) the detected TA bit rate will not be saved and, therefore, needs to be resynchronized after restarting the GSM engine (see
Section 4.91, Autobauding).

Notes:
• Factory default is autobauding enabled (AT+IPR=0). It will not be restored with AT&F.
Multi-Tech Systems, Inc. AT Commands for EDGE Modems (S000371B) 54
Chapter 4 – Serial Interface Control Commands
• The current setting of AT+IPR will be preserved when you download firmware or in the event of power failure.
Note: A firmware update does not restore the factory setting.
• Generally, AT+IPR should be used as a standalone command. If nethertheless combinations with other commands on the same command line cannot be avoided, there are several constraints to be considered:
∗ Avoid combinations with the AT commands listed in Section 1.4.2, Combining AT commands on the same command line.
∗ Take into account, that a delay of 100ms is required between the response to the last command (e.g., OK) and the next command on the same line.
∗ When you enter AT+IPR=0, autobauding will be activated after the response to the last command is received.
∗ When local echo is active (ATE1) and you enter AT+IPR=x with other commands you may encounter the following problem: if switching to the new bit rate takes effect while a response is being transmitted, the last bytes may be sent with the new bit rate and thus, not properly transmitted. The following commands will be correctly sent at the new bit rate.
• In order to account for greater amounts of data it is recommended to choose a minimum bit rate of 2400 bps. If the ME is operated in Multiplex mode we suggest a minimum bit rate of 4800bps.
• A selected bit rate takes effect after the write commands returns OK (except for Multiplex mode).
• In Multiplex mode, the write command AT+IPR=<rate> will not change the bit rate currently used, but the new bit rate will be stored and becomes active, when the module is restarted.
4.9.1 Autobauding
To take advantage of autobaud mode specific attention must be paid to the following requirements:
• Synchronization between TE and TA.
Ensure that TE and TA are correctly synchronized and the bit rate used by the TE is detected by the TA. To allow the bit rate to be synchronized simply use an “AT” or “at” string. This is necessary
∗ after you have activated autobauding
∗ when you start up the GSM engine while autobauding is enabled. It is recommended to wait 3 to 5 seconds before sending the first AT character. Otherwise undefined characters might be returned.
If you want to use autobauding and autoanswer at the same time, you can easily enable the TE-TA synchronization, when you activate autobauding first and then configure the autoanswer mode (ATS0 ≠’ 0).
• Restrictions on autobauding operation.
∗ The serial interface shall be used with 8 data bits, no parity and 1 stop bit (factory setting); e.g., 2 stop bits are not supported for autobaud mode.
∗ The command A/ cannot be used.
∗ Only the strings “AT” or “at” can be detected (neither “At” nor “aT”).
∗ URCs that may be issued before the ME detects a new bit rate (by receiving the first AT character) will be sent at the previously detected bit rate or, after ME restart, at 57600 bps.
∗ It is not recommended to switch to autobauding from a bit rate that cannot be detected by the the autobaud mechanism (e.g., 300 bps). Responses to AT+IPR=0 and any commands on the same line might be corrupted.
∗ When autobauding is switched on: (DAR)
∗ only data length, parity, and baud rate are automatically detected.
∗ if using 1 stop bit, AT+ICF=1 should not be used because AT+ICF=1 uses 2 stop bits.
∗ if using 2 stop bits, no combination of AT_ICF should be used.
• Autobauding and bit rate after restart.
The most recently detected bit rate is stored when the ME is powered down (with AT^SMSO). Therefore, each time the module is restarted the correct bit rate must be found as described above. Unless the bit rate is determined, the following constraints apply:
∗ An incoming CSD call or a network initiated GPRS request cannot be accepted. This must be taken into account when autobauding and autoanswer mode (ATS0 ≠’ 0) are enabled at the same time, especially if SIM
PIN 1 authentication is done automatically and the setting ATS0 ≠’ 0 is stored to the user profile with AT&W.
Until the bit rate is found, URCs generated after restart will be output at 57600 bps. This applies only to user defined URCs, such as “+CREG”, “CCWA”, “^SCKS” etc. The URCs “^SYSSTART”, and "^SYSSTART
AIRPLANE MODE" will not be indicated when autobauding is enabled.
Note: To avoid any problems caused by undetermined bit rates in the direction from TA to TE we strongly recommend to configure a fixed bit rate rather than autobauding.
• Autobauding and multiplex mode.
If autobauding is active, you cannot switch to multiplex mode.

4.10 AT+CMUX Enter Multiplex Mode
Description: All information provided in this section applies to the ASC0 interface only.
Multiplex mode according to the ETSI TS 101 669 and GSM 07.10 enables one physical serial asynchronous interface to be partitioned into three virtual channels. This allows you to take advantage of up to 3 simultaneous sessions running on the serial interface. For example, you can send or receive data or make a call on the first channel, while the other two channels are free to control the module with AT commands.
The Multi-Tech wireless modem module incorporates an internal multiplexer and thus integrates all the functions needed to implement full-featured multiplex solutions. For the application on top, customers have the flexibility to create their own multiplex programs conforming to the multiplexer protocol. To help system integrators save the time and expense of designing multiplexer applications, contact Multi-Tech about a ready-to-use multiplex driver for Windows
2000 and Windows XP. Another approach is to develop customized solutions based on the sources of the WinMux2k driver.
The WinMUX2k driver and its source files can be supplied on request. Please contact your local distributor to obtain the latest installation software and user’s guide.

Notes:
• The write command is used to enter the multiplex mode. The setup of the logical channels is initiated by the TE; i.e., the TE acts as initiator. This means that the TE shall ensure that logical channels are established before any further actions on the channels can be started.
• There is a timeout of five seconds, if the multiplexer protocol is enabled and no multiplexer control channel is established. The GSM engine returns to AT command mode.
• The parameter maximum frame size (N1) of AT+CMUX in GSM 07.10 is fixed to 98 bytes and cannot be changed. All other parameters are not available.
• Multiplexer mode requires character framing to be set to 8 bits, no parity, and 1 stop bit. The settings can be using AT+ICF=3.
4.10.1 Restrictions on Multiplex Mode
When the serial interface ASC0 is in multiplex mode, data and fax calls can only be set up on logical channel 1.
Due to this restriction, AT commands have a different behavior on channels 2+3 compared to channel 1. Several commands are not available, others return different responses. This section summarizes the concerned commands.

2. The applicability of the +++ escape sequence depends on the customer’s external application based on the
Mulitplexer Protocol. Recommendations for implementing an appropriate modem status command (MSC) are provided in [5], Section “Escape Sequence”.
3. PDP contexts can be defined on any channel, but are visible and usable only on the channel on which they are defined (thus, it is not possible to define a context on channel 2 and activate it on channel 3). GPRS connections can be established on two channels at a time.

Description
It is recommended to use hardware flow control (AT\Q3). XON/XOFF flow control
(AT\Q1) is not supported in Multiplex mode.
See note regarding AT\Qn settings stored with AT&W if Multiplex mode is active.
Different default configurations on channels 1, 2 and 3. user can be stored on each channel.
Before you start Multiplex mode, it is recommended to set the ME to 57600 bps
(minimum should be 4800 bps). For GPRS we suggest to use 115200 bps or 230400 bps.
In Multiplex mode, the write command AT+IPR=<rate> will not change the bit rate currently used, but the new bit rate will be stored and becomes active, when the module is restarted.
Multiplex mode cannot be activated while autobauding is enabled.
On each channel an individual <text> message can be stored. but only one time setting applies to all channels. This means an alarm <time> set on one of the channels overwrites the time setting on all remaining channels. Therefore, the total number of alarm events returned by the read command AT+CALA? will always be <n>=0, no matter whether individual text messages are stored.
When the alarm is timed out and executed the ME sends the URC only on the channel where the most recent alarm setting was made. The alarm time will be reset to “00/01/01,00:00:00” on all channels.
Presentation mode can be separately configured for each channel.
If Multiplex mode is activated the +CNMI parameter will be set to zero on all channels, if one channel fails to acknowledge an incoming message within the required time.
Phase 2+ parameters can only be used on one channel. The parameter for <mt> and <ds> on the other channels have to be set to zero. If either a SM or a Status Report is not acknowledged, all
+CNMI parameter will be set to zero on all channels.
If the ME is in Multiplexer mode, it is not recommended to activate SLEEP mode with
AT+CFUN=<fun>. The best approach to properly control SLEEP mode in this case is to issue the
PSC messages described in [5], Section “Power saving control (PSC)”.
Parameter <mem3> will be the same on all instances, but the settings of <mem1> and <mem2> may vary on each instance.
If one instance is set to <da>=1 and <mt>=1, then all other instances must be configured for
<mt>=0.

This may be for example the SIM PIN1 to register to the GSM network, or the SIM PUK1 to replace a disabled SIM PIN1 with a new one, or the PH-SIM PIN if the client has taken precautions for preventing damage in the event of loss or theft etc.
If no PIN1 request is pending (for example if PIN1 authentication has been done and the same
PIN1 is entered again), the Multi-Tech wireless modem responds “+CME ERROR: operation not allowed”; no further action is required.

Notes:
• Caution: After entering a password with AT+CPIN all other commands that need access to data on the SIM card may be blocked for up to 20 seconds!
• Successful PIN authentication only confirms that the entered PIN was recognized and correct. The output of the result code OK does not necessarily imply that the mobile is registered to the desired network.
Typical example: PIN was entered and accepted with OK, but the ME fails to register to the network. This may be due to missing network coverage, denied network access with currently used SIM card, no valid roaming agreement between home network and currently available operators etc.
The Multi-Tech wireless modem offers various options to verify the present status of network registration: For example, the AT+COPS command indicates the currently used network. With AT+CREG you can also check the current status and activate an unsolicited result code which appears whenever the status of the network registration changes (e.g., when the ME is powered up, or when the network cell changes).
• Wait 10 seconds after PIN input before using SMS related commands.
• <pin> and <new pin> can also be entered in quotation marks (e.g., “1234”).
• To check the number of remaining attempts to enter the passwords use the AT^SPIC command.
• See AT+CPWD and AT^SPWD for information on passwords.
• See AT+CLCK and AT^SLCK for information on lock types.
5.1.1 What to Do if PIN or Password Authentication Fails?
PIN1 / PUK1:
After three failures to enter PIN 1, the SIM card is blocked (except for emergency calls). +CME ERROR: 12 will prompt the client to unblock the SIM card by entering the associated PUK (= PIN Unblocking Key / Personal
Unblocking Key). After ten failed attempts to enter the PUK, the SIM card will be invalidated and no longer operable.
In such a case, the card needs to be replaced. PIN1 consists of 4 to 8 digits, PUK1 is an 8-digit code only.
To unblock a disabled PIN1 you have two options:
• You can enter AT+CPIN=PUK1,new PIN1.
• You can use the ATD command followed by the GSM code **05*PUK*newPIN*newPIN#;.
PIN2 / PUK2:
PIN2 prevents unauthorized access to the features listed in AT+CPIN2. The handling of PIN2 varies with the provider.
PIN2 may either be a specific code supplied along with an associated PUK2, or a default code such as 0000. In either case, the client is advised to replace it with an individual code. Incorrect input of PUK2 will permanently block the additional features subject to PIN2 authentification, but usually has no effect on PIN1. PIN2 consists of 4 digits, PUK2 is an 8-digit code only.
To unblock a disabled PIN2 you have two options:
• You can enter AT+CPIN2=PUK2,new PIN2.
• You can use the ATD command followed by the GSM code **052*PUK2*newPIN2*newPIN2#;.

SIM Locks:
These are factory set locks, such as “PF”, “PN”, “PU”, “PP”, “PC”. An 8-digit unlocking code is required to operate the mobile with a different SIM card, or to lift the lock. The code can only be obtained from the provider.
Failure to enter the password is subject to the same timing algorithm as the Master Phone Code (see Table above).
Call Barring:
Supported modes are “AO”, “OI”, “OX”, “AI”, “IR”, “AB”, “AG”, “AC”. If the call barring password is entered incorrectly three times, the client will need to contact the service provider to obtain a new one.

5.2 AT+CPIN2 PIN2 Authentication
Description: AT+CPIN2 controls network authentication of the Multi-Tech wireless modem.
The read command returns an alphanumeric string indicating whether or not network authentication is required.
The write command allows the Multi-Tech wireless modem to store the entered password. This may be, for example, the SIM PIN2 to benefit from the features listed below or the SIM PUK2 to replace a disabled PIN2 with a new one. Note that PIN2 can only be entered if PIN1 authentication was done.
If the Multi-Tech wireless modem is requesting SIM PUK2, use <pin> to enter the PUK2, followed by <new pin> to specify the new PIN2.

<new pin>
If the requested code was SIM PUK2: new password (PIN2).
See Section 5.1.1, What to do if PIN or password authentication fails? for more information about when you may need to enter the PUK.

SIM PUK2 ME is waiting for SIM PUK2.
This <code> is returned only when PIN2 authentication has failed and ME is pending for SIM PUK2
(i.e., “+CME ERROR:18”).
Note:
• Functions accessible only after PIN2 authentication:
AT+CACM: Accumulated call meter (ACM) reset or query
AT+CAMM: Accumulated call meter maximum (ACMmax) set or query
AT+CLCK: Facility lock to “FD” (Fixed dialing phonebook)
AT^SLCK: Facility lock to “FD” (Fixed dialing phonebook)
AT+CPWD: Change “P2”password
AT^SPWD: Change “P2”password
AT+CPUC: Price per unit and currency table
AT+CPIN2: Enter SIM PIN2 or SIM PUK2 if requested.
For example, SIM PIN2 will be needed when you attempt to edit the “FD” phonebook and ME returns “+CME
Error 17” or “+CPIN: SIM PIN2”.
Once the required <pin> has been entered correctly, PIN2 authentication code changes to READY. After 300s, a repetition of the authentication process is required; PIN2 authentication code changes from READY to SIM PIN2.
Examples:
Example 1: Change PIN2
AT+CPWD=”P2”,”0000”,”8888”
OK
Example 2: Unblock a disabled PIN2
AT+CPIN2?
+CPIN2: SIM PUK2

5.3 AT^SPIC Display PIN Counter
Description: The AT^SPIC command can be used to find out whether the ME is waiting for a password and, if so, how many attempts are left to enter the password.
The execute command returns the number of attempts still available for entering the currently required password, for example the PIN, PUK, PH-SIM PUK etc.
The read command AT^SPIC? indicates which password the number of attempts stated by the execute command actually refers to. Also, the write command may be used to query the counter for a specific password: It indicates the number of attempts still available for entering the password identified by <facility>, for example the PIN, PIN2, PH-SIM PIN etc.
To check whether or not you need to enter a password use the read commands AT+CPIN?,
AT+CPIN2? and AT^SPIC?. If the response to AT+CPIN? is “READY” the counter of the execute command AT^SPIC relates to PIN2. See last example. If the responses to AT+CPIN? and AT+CPIN2? both read “READY”, no password is currently required, and the referrer of the execute command AT^SPIC is explicitly undefined.

Notes:
• Whenever the required password changes, <counter> changes to reflect that change. Please refer to the examples below.
• For passwords associated to the phone lock (“PS” lock set by user or factory) or other factory set locks, such as
“PF”, “PN”, “PU”, “PP”, “PC” the number of attempts is subject to a timing algorithm explained in AT+CPIN. If these passwords are incorrectly entered the counter first returns 3, 2 and 1 remaining attempt(s), but then gives the total number of attempts which amounts to 63 (see example below).
• See also Chapters AT+CLCK, AT+CPIN, AT+CPIN2, AT+CPWD, AT^SLCK for further information on locks and passwords.

Example 3
This example shows that after successful SIM PIN1 authentication the counter of the AT^SPIC execute and read command refers to SIM PIN2; i.e., it does not reflect the status of SIM PIN1. This may be a problem if the user enters a wrong PIN1 and is not aware that the number of attempts left to enter SIM PIN1 is counted down.
+CREG: 0 at+cpin=1234
OK
+CREG: 2
+CREG: 1 at+cpin?
+CPIN: READY
The mobile ist properly registered to the network.
The AT+CPIN? read command confirms that SIM PIN1 authentication was successful. at^spic
^SPIC: 3 As SIM PIN1 authentication was successful, the counter relates to SIM PIN2 and correctly indicates that the user has 3 attempts to enter SIM PIN2.
OK
AT^SPIC?
^SPIC: SIM PIN2
OK at+clck=”SC”,0,456789
CME ERROR: incorrect password at^spic
^SPIC: 3 at+clck=”SC”,0,456789
CME ERROR: incorrect password at^spic
^SPIC: 3 at+clck=”SC”,0,456789
CME ERROR: incorrect password
+CREG: 0 at^spic
^SPIC: 10
Likewise, the read command notifies that the ME is waiting for SIM PIN2.
First attempt to enter a wrong SIM PIN1.
SIM PIN1 authentication is still valid, and the counter relates to SIM PIN2.
Second attempt to enter a wrong SIM PIN1.
SIM PIN1 authentication is still valid, and the counter relates to SIM PIN2.
Third attempt to enter a wrong SIM PIN1.
SIM PIN1 authentication is no longer valid.
This time, after the SIM PIN1 code has been disabled, the counter indicates the status of SIM PIN1 and notifies that 10 attempts are left to enter the SIM
PUK.
To avoid conflicts we recommend to use the AT^SPIC read and write commands rather than the execute command only. The read command clearly states the currently required password, and the write command may be used to get the counter for a specific <facility>, in this case for example “P2”.

ERROR
Parameter Descriptions:
<facility>
Phone security locks set by client or factory
Primarily intended for the client to take safety precautions, “SC”, “PS” and “FD” can be configured individually.
Parameter <class> is not applicable to security locks. See examples below for further details.
“SC“
“PS“
SIM (lock SIM cards). SIM requests password upon ME power-up and when this lock command is issued.
<password>: SIM PIN1.
Phone locked to SIM card. ME requests password when other than current SIM card is inserted.
“PS” lock is frequently referred to as “phone lock”, or “device lock”. Accordingly, the password may be called “phone code” or “device code”. The “PS” password is not associated with the
PUK of the SIM card. If incorrectly entered three times, the Master Phone Code is required to lift the lock. This is an 8-digit device code associated to the IMEI number of the mobile which can only by obtained from the manufacturer of the module. Once the Master Phone Code has
“FD“ been accepted, the mobile is operational, and the “PS” lock is no longer active. If needed it must be set once again.
Important Note: Multi-Tech does not lock SIM Cards.
<password>: User defined password. It is needed before the first use of <facility> “PS” and, therefore, must first be specified with AT+CPWD or AT^SPWD, if it has not been predefined by factory settings. If set by factory (e.g., for a prepaid mobile), the password is supplied by the provider or operator.
SIM fixed dialing memory: If the mobile is locked to “FD”, only the phone numbers stored to the
“FD” memory can be dialled. (Capacity of FD phonebook depending on the SIM card).
<password>: SIM PIN 2.
If a lock on the SIM fixed dialing memory is active, the following applies:
• Outgoing voice, data or fax calls can be made only to numbers stored in “FD” phonebook.
Result code depends on the type of the call:
for voice calls, indication is “+CME Error 257: Call barred”.
for data and fax calls, indication is “NO CARRIER”.
• Access to defined Supplementary Services such as Call barring, Call waiting, Call forwarding, Call hold and Multiparty is possible only if the exact corresponding public MMI
*# code for the desired service is stored in the fixed dialing number phone book and used with ATD.
AT commands for supplementary service control are barred while “FD” lock is active.
Indication is “+CME Error 257: Call barred”.
• Access to Unstructured Supplementary Services (‘USSD) is possible only if the exact desired USSD string is stored in the fixed dialing number phone book and used with ATD.
AT commands for USSD are barred while “FD” lock is active.
Indication is “+CME Error 257: Call barred”.
• SMS can be sent only to phone numbers which are stored in the “fixed dialing numbers” phonebook “FD”. Also, a valid Service Center Address (international format) must be present in “FD” to allow sending SMS at all.
Indication is “+CMS Error 302: operation not allowed”.
• GPRS commands can be used only if the “fixed dialing numbers” phonebook “FD” contains an entry with phone number “*99#”. This single entry enables all GPRS commands, including AT commands and modem compatibility commands like
“ATD*99***1#” or “ATD*98***1#”.
Indication is “+CME Error 257: Call barred”.
Multi-Tech Systems, Inc. AT Commands for EDGE Modems (S000371B) 65
Chapter 4 – Serial Interface Control Commands
Factory Defined SIM Locks:
Typical examples of factory set SIM locks are prepaid phones or network locks, used to restrict the operation of a mobile to a specific provider or operator. The client should be aware that each of these lock types can only be unlocked if the associated password is available. For example, a mobile can be locked to accept only SIM cards from the respective provider, or even one single SIM card. Once a different SIM card is inserted the ME will prompt the client to enter a specific code. This is not the PUK of the SIM card, but usually an 8-digit code which needs to be requested from the provider.
The locks can only be set by the manufacturer and need to be agreed upon between the parties concerned; e.g., provider, operator, distributor etc. on the one side and the manufacturer on the other side.
Important Note: Multi-Tech does not lock SIM Cards.

Supplementary Service Call Barring:
Supplementary Service “Call Barring” allows to specify conditions under which calls will be disallowed by the network. The availability of the Supplementary Services varies with the network. To benefit from call barring the client will need to subscribe them, though a limited number of call barring types may be included in the basic tariff package.
When you attempt to set a <facility> or <class> which is not provisioned, not yet subscribed to, or not supported by the module, the setting will not take effect regardless of the response returned. The responses in these cases vary with the network (for example “OK”, “+CME ERROR: Operation not allowed”, “+CME ERROR: Operation not supported” etc.). To make sure check the extended error response with AT+CEER and the lock status with
<mode>=2.
<password>: Network password supplied from the provider or operator. Usually there is one password which applies to all call barring options. For details contact your provider.
“AO“
“OX“
“AI“
“IR“

<password>
Password string used to lock and to unlock a <facility>. Length and authority for passwords depend on the
<facility> in question and are therefore listed in the section on parameter <facility>. Passwords can be modified with AT+CPWD or AT^SPWD.
<class>
Integer or sum of integers each representing a class of information; i.e., a bearer service, telecommunication service or bearer service group as defined in “GSM 02.04”.
1 voice
2 class 2 (“data”) comprises all those individual data classes between 16 and 128, that are supported both by the network and the MS. This means, a setting made for class 2 applies to all individual data classes (if supported). In addition, you can assign a different setting to a specific class. For example, you can activate
Call Forwarding for all data classes, but deactivate it for data class 64, “dedicated packet access”.
4 fax
8 SMS
16 data circuit sync
32 data circuit async
64 dedicated packet access
128 dedicated PAD access
1-55 Default 7. Combination of some of the above classes. For example, the default setting 7 represents the sum of the integers 1, 2 and 4 (voice, data and fax). The value 255 covers all classes.
If parameter “class” is omitted, the default value 7 is used.

Chapter 4 – Serial Interface Control Commands
Notes:
• The AT+CLCK command offers the full range of <class> parameters according to the GSM specifications.
However, when you attempt to use a service option which is not provisioned or not yet subscribed to, the setting will not take effect regardless of the response returned.
The responses in these cases vary with the network (for example “OK”, “Operation not allowed”, “Operation not supported” etc.). To make sure check the extended error response with AT+CEER and the lock status with
<mode>=2.
• The command has been implemented with the full set of <class> parameters according to GSM 07.07. For actual applicability of a desired Call barring service to a specific service or service group (a specific <class> value) please consult table A.1 of GSM 02.04.
• If an outgoing Fax or Data Call is rejected due to an active “call barring” supplementary service, the call will be terminated with result code NO CARRIER.
Under the same conditions, an outgoing Voice call will be terminated with result code NO DIALTONE.
• If an invalid <password> is entered several times in succession, a delay incremented after each failed attempt will increase the time to wait before the input of the <password> is accepted. To avoid blocking the serial interface the running AT+CLCK command is aborted after a short timeout and returns CME ERROR 100
(“unknown”). If then the AT+CLCK command is issued once again execution is denied with CME ERROR 256
(“Operation temporary not allowed”). For details regarding the delay see Section 5.1.1, What to do if PIN or password authentication fails?.
• If the user tries to set a lock although it is already active or, the other way round, tries to unlock an inactive lock, the response will be OK, but the <password> will not be checked or verified.
• In the airplane mode the write command version for the network related <facility> (AO, OI, OX, AI, IR, AB, AG and AC) is not supported. For remaining facilities the command is fully functional then.
Examples
Example 1: Lock SIM card (<facility>= “SC”)
AT+CLCK=”SC”,1,”9999” The “SC” parameter enables or disables the SIM PIN authentication (PIN 1) when you power up the GSM engine
OK
AT+CLCK=”SC”,0,”9999”
OK
SIM card locked. As a result, SIM PIN 1 must be entered to enable ME to register to the
GSM network.
Unlocks SIM card.
When powered up, ME registers to the GSM network without requesting SIM PIN1.
Note: Depending on the services offered by the provider, this feature is not supported by all
SIM card types. If so, the command returns ERROR when you attempt to unlock the card.
To query the status of the SIM card lock:
AT+CLCK=”SC”,2
+CLCK: 1
OK
Query the status of SIM card lock.
SIM card is locked. SIM PIN1 must be entered to enable ME to register to the GSM network.
Example 2: Phone Lock (<facility>=”PS”)
AT+CPIN?
OK
Make sure that PIN1 authentication is valid.
To lock the ME to the currently inserted SIM card, first specify a password for <facility> “PS”:
AT+CPWD=”PS”,,”1234”
OK
If “PS” lock has not been set before: enter new password.
Optionally, if “PS” password was defined before, change existing password:
AT+CPWD=”PS”,”1234”,”3333” To replace existing “PS” password: Enter old and new password.
OK
Then, activate the Phone Lock:
AT+CLCK=”PS”,1,”3333”
OK
Locks the mobile to the current SIM card.
To operate the mobile with the SIM card for which “PS” lock was activated:
AT+CPIN?
+CPIN: SIM PIN
OK
AT+CPIN=”9999”
OK No additional password is required for operation (SIM recognized by mobile).
To operate the mobile with other SIM card than the one used for the “PS” lock:
Enter SIM PIN of present card, followed by “PS” lock password.
AT+CPIN?
+CPIN: SIM PIN
OK
AT+CPIN=”1111”
OK
AT+CPIN?
+CPIN: PH-SIM PIN
OK
AT+CPIN=”3333”
OK
PIN authentication accepted.
“PS” lock password is required.
“PS” Lock password has been accepted. ME is fully operational now.
To deactivate the Phone Lock:
AT+CLCK=”PS”,0,”3333”
OK
Phone Lock password has to be provided again.
Now the mobile can be used with any SIM card, without the need of the phone lock password.

5.5 AT^SLCK Facility Lock
Description: AT^SLCK provides the “Facility lock” function as defined for the GSM 07.07 command
AT+CLCK. The command can be used to lock, unlock or interrogate a network or ME <facility>.
AT^SLCK is, in every respect, identical with AT+CLCK, except that the command syntax and response prefix is “^SLCK” instead of “+CLCK”. For further details please refer to AT+CLCK.
The command can be aborted when network facilities are being set or interrogated.
Test Command Syntax: AT^SLCK=?
Response(s): ^SLCK:list of supported <facility>s, OK
Write Command Syntax: AT^SLCK=<facility>, <mode>[, <password>][, <class>]
Response(s):
Note: if <mode> is not equal 2 and command successful: OK if <mode>=2 and command successful: ^SLCK: <status>, <class>
[^SLCK: <status>, <class>]
[^SLCK: ...]
OK
If error is related to ME functionality: +CME ERROR
In the airplane mode the write command version for the network related <facility> (AO, OI, OX, AI, IR, AB, AG and
AC) is not supported. For remaining facilities the command is fully functional then.
5.6 AT+CPWD Change Password
Description: AT+CPWD allows to define a new password for a password protected <facility> lock function.
Each password is a string of digits, the length of which varies with the associated <facility>. The test command returns a list of pairs which represent the available facilities and the maximum length of the associated password. See AT commands AT+CLCK and AT^SLCK for more information on the various lock features.
Specifically the command can be used to • change PIN1 or PIN2,
• change the password supplied from your provider for the “call barring” supplementary service,
• set individual phone security passwords,
• enter the unblocking key (Master Phone Code) to restore a disabled “PS” password.
To delete a password use the following syntax: at+cpwd=<facility>,<old password>
Test Command Syntax: AT+CPWD=?
Response(s): +CPWD : (list of supported (<facility>, <password length>), OK
Write Command Synatx: AT+CPWD=<facility>, <old password>[, <new password>]
Response(s): New password has been registered for the facility lock function.
OK
If parameter <old password> was not correct:
+CME ERROR 16 (+CME ERROR: incorrect password)
Parameter Descriptions:
If the password for the selected <facility> has been invalidated due to too many failed attempts: +CME ERROR ...
If error is related to ME functionality: +CME ERROR
<facility>
Phone security locks set by client or factory:
Primarily intended for the client to take safety precautions. Passwords “SC” (SIM PIN) and “P2” (SIM PIN2) are usually predefined, but can be configured individually. The lock facility password “PS” may also be factory set.
“SC“ SIM PIN. SIM requests password upon ME power-up and when this lock command is issued.
If incorrectly entered three times, the SIM PUK is required to perform authentication.
Input of the SIM PUK password is possible only with AT command AT+CPIN or ATD. For further details please refer to Section 5.1.1, What to do if PIN or password authentication fails?.
“PS“
<password length>: 4 to 8 digits.
Phone locked to SIM card. ME requests password when other than current SIM card is inserted.
“PS” lock is frequently referred to as “phone lock”, or “device lock”. Accordingly, the password may be called “phone code” or “device code”. The “PS” password is not associated with the PUK of the SIM card. It must be defined before the first use of <facility> “PS” with AT+CLCK.
<password length>: 4 digits.
If incorrectly entered three times, the Master Phone Code is required to lift the lock. This
Unblocking procedure is performed with AT+CPWD using the following parameters:
<facility>=”PS”, <old password>= Master Phone Code (to be obtained from the module manufacturer) and <new password>= the new phone code (“PS” password for lock facility), if desired.
Mind that successful PIN authentication is a prerequisite for use of AT command AT+CPWD. If
Pin authentication has not been completed, input of the Master Phone code password is possible only with AT command AT+CPIN or ATD. For further detail please refer to Section 5.1.1, What to do if PIN or password authentication fails?.
Multi-Tech Systems, Inc. AT Commands for EDGE Modems (S000371B) 68
Chapter 4 – Serial Interface Control Commands
“P2“
Once the Master Phone Code has been acctepted, the mobile is operational and the “PS” lock is no longer active. If needed it must be set once again with AT+CLCK.
SIM PIN 2; e.g., required for authentication with facility lock “FD” (cf. AT+CLCK).
If incorrectly entered three times, the SIM PUK 2 is required to perform authentication.
Input of the SIM PUK 2 password is possible only with AT command AT+CPIN2 or ATD. For further detail please refer to Section 5.1.1, What to do if PIN or password authentication fails?.
<password length>: 4 to 8 digits.
Factory-Defined SIM Locks:
Typical examples of factory set SIM locks are prepaid phones or network locks, used to restrict the operation of a mobile to a specific provider or operator. The client should be aware that each of these lock types can only be unlocked if the associated password is available. For example, a mobile can be locked to accept only SIM cards from the respective provider, or even one single SIM card. Once a different SIM card is inserted the ME will prompt the client to enter a specific code. This is not the PUK of the SIM card, but usually an 8-digit code which needs to be requested from the provider.
The locks can only be set by the manufacturer and need to be agreed upon between the parties concerned; e.g., provider, operator, distributor etc. on the one side and the manufacturer on the other side.

Supplementary Service Call Barring:
Supplementary Service “Call Barring” allows to specify conditions under which calls will be disallowed by the network. The availability of the Supplementary Services varies with the network. To benefit from call barring the client will need to subscribe them, though a limited number of call barring types may be included in the basic tariff package.
<password length>: The Network Password needs to be supplied from the network provider or network operator.
Usually there is one 4 digit password which applies to all call barring options. For details contact your provider.

“IR“
“AB“
“AG“
“AC“
BIC-Roam (Bar Incoming Calls when Roaming outside the home country)
All Barring services
All outGoing barring services
All inComing barring services
<password length>
4...8 Length of password. The range of permitted length for a password depends on the associated
<facility>. It is available from the test command response or in the description of <facility>.
<old password>
Password specified for the facility.
Parameter <old password> can be ignored if no old password was allocated to the facility.
Take into account that a password may have already been set by factory, or that the service is subject to a password issued by the provider. See notes above or contact provider.
<new password>
New password. Mandatory, if <old password> was an unblocking key (such as the Master Phone Code).
Notes:
• When changing PIN2 (<facility>=”P2”), it is recommended to check the new state of PIN2 by using AT+CPIN2.
• In the airplane mode the write command version for the network related <facility> (AO, OI, OX, AI, IR, AB, AG and
AC) is not supported. For remaining facilities the command is fully functional then.
Examples
Example 1: To change PIN2
AT+CPWD=”P2”,”0000”,”8888”
OK
(where “0000” = old PIN2 and “8888” = new PIN2)
PIN2 Password has been changed to “8888”
Example 2: To set password used to enable or disable barring of all outgoing calls:
AT+CPWD=”AO”,”0000”,”3333”
OK
Requests the network to change the password for supplementary service “call barring”.
Usually this request will affect all barring services, even though the request is issued for Supplementary Service BAOC (“Barring of all outgoing calls”) only.
Refer to the respective network provider for detail.
Example 3: Handling of the “PS” lock password
AT+CMEE=2
AT+CPWD=”PS”,”1111”,”2222”
OK
AT+CPWD=”PS”,”1111”,”2222”
+CME ERROR: incorrect password
Enable text output of CME Error information
(where “1111” = old password and “2222” = new password)
Password for facility “PS” is now “2222”
Repeat command to provoke error “incorrect password”
(“1111” is no longer the correct password)
Multi-Tech Systems, Inc. AT Commands for EDGE Modems (S000371B) 69
Chapter 4 – Serial Interface Control Commands
Example 4: To specify a new “PS” lock password
To specify a new “PS” lock password, after the old password was disabled (e.g., after three failed attempts to change the “PS” password): use the master phone code.
CAUTION: THIS TEST SHOULD BE PERFORMED ONLY IF THE CORRECT MASTER PHONE CODE FOR
THE INDIVIDUAL ME USED IS DEFINITELY AVAILABLE! Otherwise, the module used will be rendered useless until the correct master phone code is entered:
AT+CPWD=”PS”,”12345678”,”1111” where 12345678 is the Master Phone Code and 1111 is the new password. You may also use <new password> to restore the former disabled password.
OK
Alternatively, without giving a new password:
AT+CPWD=”PS”,”12345678” (where 12345678 is the Master Phone Code). Deactivates the present phone lock.
OK
5.7 AT^SPWD Change Password
Description: The AT^SPWD command is, in every respect, identical with AT+CPWD, except that the command syntax and response prefix is “^SPWD” instead of “+CPWD”. For further description please refer to
AT+CPWD. See also AT commands AT+CLCK and AT^SLCK for more information on the various lock features.
The write AT^SPWD command allows to define a new password for a password protected <facility> lock function.
Each password is a string of digits, the length of which varies with the associated <facility>. The test command returns a list of pairs which represent the available facilities and the maximum length of the associated password.
Use this command when you want to change the passwords defined for the “facility lock” functions available from AT+CLCK. Specifically the command can be used to • change PIN1 or PIN2,
• change the password supplied from your provider for the “call barring” supplementary service,
• set individual phone security passwords,
• enter the unblocking key (Master Phone Code) to restore a disabled “PS” password.
See also AT Commands AT+CLCK and AT^SLCK for more information on the vaious lock features.
Test Command Syntax: AT^SPWD=?
Response: ^SPWD : list of supported (<facility>, <password length>)
OK
Write Command Syntax: AT^SPWD= <facility> [,<old password>][, <new password>]
Response: New password has been registered for the facility lock function: OK
If parameter <old password> was not correct: +CME ERROR 16 (+CME ERROR: incorrect password)
If the password for the selected <facility> has been invalidated due to too many failed attempts: +CME ERROR ...
When trying to set a “CM” password even though another type of factory set SIM lock is already active: +CME ERROR: Operation not supported.
If error is related to ME functionality: +CME ERROR
Note: When changing the PIN2 (<facility>=”P2”), it is recommended to check the new state of
PIN2 using the AT+CPIN2 command.

Chapter 7 – Call-Related Commands
Chapter 7. Call-Related Commands
The AT Commands described in this chapter are related to Mobile Originated Calls (MOC; i.e., outgoing) and Mobile
Terminated Calls (MTC; i.e., incoming).
7.1 Call Status Information
For Circuit switched calls, including voice, fax and data calls, call status information is available with URC “+CIEV: call” (configurable via AT commands AT+CIND and AT+CMER) or - in more detail - from the list of current calls. This list can be displayed on request via at commands AT+CLCC and AT^SLCC. It can also be issued by the ME in the form of an unsolicited result code “^SLCC” if configured with AT^SLCC and AT+CMER.
URC “+CIEV: call” and URC “^SLCC” can be configured using AT command AT^SCFG. An overview of the possible configurations and their consequences for the availability of call status information will be given here.
Generally speaking, the call status values recognized by the ME are as follows:
• active
• held
• dialing (MOC)
• alerting (MOC)
• incoming (MTC)
• waiting (MTC)
• terminating: The call is not active anymore, but inband information is still available.
• dropped: The call has been suspended by the network, but may be resumed later.
The values “terminating” and “dropped” are not standardized for AT command AT+CLCC, and, therefore, only available for command AT^SLCC. A call in any of these two states will not appear in the list of current calls as displayed with AT+CLCC.
A call that is not recognized by the ME is considered to be in “unknown” state.
Some networks may schedule a traffic channel for a call that is not yet in the “active” state. This is reflected in parameter <traffic channel assigned> of AT command AT^SLCC and the corresponding URC.
Depending on the value of AT^SCFG setting <succ>, Indicator “+CIEV” will be issued (if configured with
AT+CIND and AT+CMER)
• when a state transition ends in state “active” or in state “unknown”
(if AT^SCFG setting <succ>=”restricted”).
• when any state transition (including transitions beginning or ending in state “unknown”) occurs in the list of active calls, or when a traffic channel is established (if AT^SCFG setting <succ>=”verbose”).
The value for indicator “+CIEV: call” will be “1” if at least one call is in states “held” or “active”, and “0” otherwise.
Depending on the value of AT^SCFG setting <sucs>, indicator “^SLCC” will be issued (if configured with write command AT^SLCC and AT+CMER).
• when a state transition ends in state “active” or in state “unknown” (if AT^SCFG setting <sucs>=”restricted”)
• when any state transition (including transitions beginning or ending in state “unknown”) occurs in the list of active calls, or when a voice channel is established (if AT^SCFG setting <sucs>=”verbose”).
Due to compatibility considerations, the powerup default for AT^SCFG setting <succ> is “restricted”, offering compatibility to the standard behaviour of indicator “+CIEV: call”, while the default for setting <sucs> is “verbose”.
In order to see the URCs, event reporting for both indicators must be configured with the appropriate AT commands.

Chapter 7 – Call-Related Commands
7.2 ATA Answer a Call
Description: TA causes remote station to go off-hook (e.g., answer call).
Exec Command Syntax: ATA
Response:
CONNECT
Parameter Description:
In case of data call, if successfully connected (TA switches to data mode):
<text>
In case of voice call, if successfully connected: OK
When TA returns to command mode after call release: OK
If no connection: NO CARRIER
<text>
Connection status
<text> output only if ATX parameter setting with value greater 0.
Notes
• Any additional commands on the same command line are ignored.
• The command may be aborted generally by receiving a character during execution. It can’t be aborted in some connection setup states, such as handshaking.
• If AT+FCLASS setting is 1 or 2, all incoming calls will be answered as fax calls, when ATA is issued on multiplexer channel 1 resp. ASC0. For calls explicitly signalled as voice or data calls, this procedure will fail with result code “NO CARRIER”, but the call in question will continue to ring. It is possible to change the setting for
AT+FCLASS to 0 while the call is ringing, and accept the call normally afterwards with ATA.
• The ATA command may be used also to accept a network request for a PDP context activation (see ATA).
• See also ATX for <text>.
• If an incoming call is no longer available (already disconnected/hang up), a “NO CARRIER” result code will be given.
7.3 ATD Mobile Originated Call to a Specified
Number
Description: This command can be used to set up outgoing voice, data or fax calls. It also serves to control
Supplementary Services. The termination character “;” is mandatory to set up voice calls or to send *# codes for Supplementary Services. It must not be used for data and fax calls.
Additional notes on the responses returned after dialing with ATD:
• For voice calls, you have the choice of two different response modes that can be selected with AT^SM20:
AT^SM20=1 (factory default) causes the ME to respond once the call setup is completed either successfully (“OK”) or unsuccessfully (“NO CARRIER”, “NO DIAL TONE”, “BUSY”).
AT^SM20=0 causes the ME to return “OK” immediately after dialing was completed (i.e., before call setup terminates successfully or unsuccessfully).
• For data connections, call setup always terminates when the call has been established
(indicated by the result code “CONNECT <text>), or when it fails (indicated by “NO
CARRIER”). The settings of AT^SM20 do not apply.
Different call release indications:
• Upon termination, an outgoing fax or data call may show a different result code than a voice call would show under identical conditions. In order to track down the actual reason for call termination, AT+CEER or ATS18 should be used for all applicable connections.
Using ATD during an active call:
• When a user originates a second voice call whil there is already an active voice call, the first call will automatically put on hold. The second call attempt is acknowledged with “OK” immediately after dialing with ATD has completed, without relation to a successful call setup.
In case of failure, the additional result codes “NO CARRIER”, “NO DIAL TONE”, “NO
CARRIER” will be presented afterwards (see example below).
Exec Command Syntax: ATD<n>[<mgsm>][;]
Response: If no dialtone (parameter setting ATX2 or ATX4): NO DIALTONE
If busy (parameter setting ATX3 or ATX4): BUSY
If a connection cannot be set up: NO CARRIER
OK
If successfully connected and non-voice call (TA switches to online data mode):
CONNECT <text>
When TA returns to command mode after call release: OK
If successfully connected and voice call: OK

Chapter 7 – Call-Related Commands
Parameter Description:
<n>
String of dialing digits and optional V.250 modifiers: 0-9, *, #, +, A, B, C
The following V.250 modifiers are ignored: ,(comma), T, P, !, W ,@
Emergency call : <n> = 112, 911 or 08, standardized GSM emergency number (no SIM needed).
<mgsm>
String of GSM modifiers:
I Activates CLIR (disables presentation of own phone number to called party) i Deactivates CLIR (enables presentation of own phone number to called party)
G Activate Closed User Group explicit invocation for this call only. g Deactivate Closed User Group explicit invocation for this call only.
Notes:
• The command may be aborted generally when receiving a character during execution. It cannot be aborted in some connection setup states, such as handshaking.
• Parameter “I” and “i” only if no *#-code is within the dial string.
• <mgsm> is not supported for data calls.
• <n> is default for last number that can be dialled by ATDL.
• See also ATX for <text>.
• If ATD is used with a USSD command (e.g., ATD*100#;) an AT+CUSD=1 is executed implicitly (see AT+CUSD).
• Parameter ‘G’ or ‘g’ will be ignored if Closed User Group was already activated, respectively deactivated with
AT+CCUG command before. Call by call invocation of CUG uses the settings provisioned by the provider or, if available, the settings of the parameters <index> and <info> made with AT+CCUG.
• The ME is equipped with a “Blacklist” function according to GSM02.07 Annex A:
After a predefined number of failed call attempts, the dialed number is entered into a read-only phonebook called
“blacklist” (phonebook “BL”). Call attempts to numbers contained in the blacklist will be barred by ME and not signalled to the network.
An attempt to start a voice call to a barred phone number will be stopped with a CME ERROR 257 “Call Barred”.
An attempt to start a data or fax call to a barred phone number will be answered immediately with result code
“NO CARRIER”.
The barred numbers are automatically removed from the blacklist according to the timing conditions specified in
GSM02.07 Annex A.
Example:
The following example shows the call setup procedure when a call is already active and a second call attempt fails because the line of the called party is busy: atd03012345678
OK
Dialing out the first party’s number.
The first call is established.
ATD03022222222
OK
BUSY
The number of the second party is dialed.
The response “OK” is issued immediately though no call is established
(same behavior as is you had chosen AT^SM20=0.)
Line of the second called party is busy.

OK disconnect from line and terminate call
Notes:
• OK is issued after circuit 109 (DCD) is turned off, if it was previously on.
• ATH terminates every circuit switched call (voice, data or fax), even if it is issued via another interface. This behavior is in accordance with ITU-T V.250; (07/97, “Hook control”: “ATH is terminating any call in progress.”).
• ATH clears any active PDP context or terminates any existing PPP connection, but only if issued on the same interface where GPRS is used and if there is no pending network request for PDP context activation. It does not affect PDP contexts and PPP connections on other interfaces (see also Chapter “ATH Manual rejection of a network request for PDP context activation”).

Write Command Syntax: ATS0=<n>
Response(s): OK
ERROR
Parameter Description:
<n>
000 Automatic answer mode is disabled. Default.
001-255 Enable automatic answering after specified number of rings.
Notes:
• This command works for MT data and fax calls.
• Autoanswering of CSD data and fax calls is supported on ASC0/Mux1 only.
• If <n> is set to higher values, the calling party may hang up before the call is automatically answered.
• The correlation between ATS7 and ATS0 is important. Example: Call setup may fail if ATS7=30 and ATS0=20.
• Setting is local to the interface. It is allowed to have different settings on different interfaces. In such cases the interface ‘wins’, which is idle and uses the smallest <n> value.
• The ATS0 write command is PIN protected.
• The command ATS0 is also used as GPRS compatibility command to answer automatically to a network request for PDP context activation (for details see ATS0 for GPRS). So using ATS0=<n> with n > 0, will perform a GPRS attach, if the ME is not already GPRS attached and if ME is configured to do so (see AT^SCFG, parameter
<gs0aa>). If the GPRS attach fails (e.g., the network rejects the attach request), the write command returns an error, though the new value takes effect.
The GPRS attach will not be performed on recalling a stored user profile with ATZ or on powerup, if a n > 0 setting was stored in the user profile with AT&W.

Notes:
• Command ATS7 is applicable only to data calls.
• Values greater than 60 (maximum 255) cause no error, but <n> will be restored to the maximum value of 60.
• The correlation between ATS7 and ATS0 is important. If the called party has specified a high value for
ATS0=<n>, call setup may fail.
Example: Call setup may fail if ATS7=30 and ATS0=20.

ATO Switch from Command Mode to Data
Mode / PPP Online Mode
Description: ATO is the corresponding command to the +++ escape sequence: When you have established a CSD call or a GPRS connection and TA is in command mode, ATO causes the TA to resume the data or GPRS connection and takes you back to data mode or PPP online mode.
Exec Command Syntax: ATO[<n>]
Response: If connection is not successfully resumed:
NO
or
TA returns to data mode from command mode
CONNECT
Note: <text> output only if ATX parameter setting with value > 0.
Parameter Description:
<n>
0 Switch from command mode to data mode. Default.
7.18 +++ 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.
Exec Command Syntax: +++
Response: OK
Notes:
• To return from command mode to data or PPP online mode: Enter ATO.
• In Multiplex mode the +++ sequence does not work. Therefore, if required in Multiplex mode, the escape sequence needs to be implemented in the customer’s external Multiplex application. Design solutions, for example using the DTR signal or a modem status command (MSC), can be found in [5], Section “Escape
Sequence”. See also Section 4.10, AT+CMUX.

The maximum displayed length of <alpha> is 16 characters. If <alpha> has more than 16 characters, only the first 15 characters are displayed. To indicate an overflow, a special character will be used as the 16 th character.
This is a space if the character set selected with AT+CSCS is ‘GSM’, or ‘E400’ if the character set is ‘UCS2’.
Due to time constraints on the necessary evaluation of the phonebook, this parameter may show a default value in early call phases (e.g., for <stat>= “dialing”, “incoming” or “alerting”), even if a phonebook entry is present for the number concerned.
Note:
Teleservices other than voice, data, fax are not fully supported by ME. They are used only in connection with the handling for AT+CSNS, and may therefore occur in parameter <mode> for mobile terminated calls.

7.22 AT^SLCC List Current Calls of ME
Description: AT^SLCC covers essentially the same information as AT+CLCC, with the following additions:
• The execute command response contains an additional parameter <traffic channel assigned> indicating whether the call has been assigned a traffic channel by the network (transmission of data or inband information is possible).
• The additional write command allows to activate Event reporting for the list of current calls. If event reporting is active for an interface, a call status transition (see Call Status Information) and (if desired) the assignment of a traffic channel will generate an event report indication to this interface. In order to receive this event report as an URC, the URC presentation mode for this interface has to be configured with AT+CMER.
The frequency of event report generation can be configured with AT command AT^SCFG.
Refer to Call Status Information for further detail on the configuration options.
Command Description:
The additional read command allows to determine the event reporting mode <n> which indicates whether the interface receives event report indications for the list of current calls. Mind that the
URC will be displayed only if the URC presentation mode for the interface concerned has been configured with AT+CMER.The read command returns an indication whether event reporting is active for the current interface.
The exec command returns a list of current calls of ME. If command is successful, but no calls are available, no information response is sent to TE.
Use the write command to activate or deactivate event reporting for URC "^SLCC". Event reporting can be enabled separately for each interface. Interface settings are saved with AT&W and can be displayed with AT&V.

The URC’s occurrence indicates call status changes for any of the calls in the list of current calls.
Please refer to Call Status Information and AT^SCFG for further information about the configuration of this URC.
Event reporting can be enabled separately for each interface. Interface settings are saved with AT&W and can be displayed with AT&V. Additionally, The URC presentation mode for the interface must be configured with AT+CMER.
Depending on the value of AT^SCFG setting <sucs>, Indicator “^SLCC” will be issued (if configured with write command AT^SLCC and AT+CMER):

• when a state transition ends in state “active” or in state “unknown” (if AT^SCFG setting <sucs>=”restricted”)
• when any state transition (including transitions beginning or ending in state
“unknown”) occurs in the list of active calls, or when a traffic channel is established (if AT^SCFG setting <sucs>=”verbose”).
If multiple displays of identical list configurations occur, this happens because of short intermediate states of the list, that have already been overridden by new transitions and states. Thus, it is guaranteed that the configuration displayed is always the current configuration at the time of the last display.
The list of active calls displayed with this URC will always be terminated with an empty line preceded by prefix “^SLCC: “, in order to indicate the end of the list.

Multi-Tech Systems, Inc. AT Commands for EDGE Modems (S000371B) 87
Chapter 7 – Call-Related Commands
Notes:
• Teleservices other than voice, data, fax are not fully supported by ME. They are used only in connection with the handling for AT+CSNS, and may therefore occur in parameter <mode> for mobile terminated calls.
• If a URC “^SLCC” in verbose mode (see AT^SCFG) has been buffered while the interface was in dedicated mode (depending on the settings of AT+CMER parameter <bfr>), each buffered event indicator will be output as a separate URC after the interface returns to idle mode.
• However, the output will deliver the list of current calls in the “current” state (at the time when the output is generated), possibly leading to multiple displays of identical list configurations.
• Some parameters of AT command AT+CHLD, as well as some situations where the call status in the network changes very quickly (e.g., the transition between <stat>= “unknown”, “dialing” and “alerting” for a call to a reachable subscriber within the registered network) may lead to quasi-simultaneous changes to the states of one or several calls in the list, possibly leading to multiple displays of identical list configurations.
• If multiple displays of identical list configurations occur, this happens because of intermediate states of the list, that have already been overridden by new transitions and states. Thus, it is guaranteed that the configuration displayed in such cases is the current configuration at the time of the last display.
• It is adviseable to receive URC “^SLCC” on an interface that is not used for call initiation, if verbose output is configured. If only voice calls are expected, a setting of AT^SM20= 0 may be used alternatively in order to keep the call from blocking the interface.

Commands
The AT Commands described in this chapter are related to various network services. More commands related to this area can be found in Chapter 9., Supplementary Service Commands.
8.1 AT+COPN Read Operator Names
Description: The AT+COPN command returns the list of operator names from the ME. Each operator code <numericn> that has an alphanumeric equivalent <alphan> in the ME memory is returned. See also: AT^SPLM.
Test Command Syntax: AT+COPN=?
Response: OK

Parameter Descriptions:
<numericn>
Operator in numeric format; GSM location area identification number.
<alphan>
Operator in long alphanumeric format; can contain up to 16 characters.
8.2 AT+COPS Operator Selection
Description: AT+COPS queries the present status of the Multi-Tech wireless modem’s network registration and allows to determine whether automatic or manual network selection shall be used.
Additional service is available with AT^SOPS.
Three operator selection modes are available:
• Automatic
The Multi-Tech wireless modem searches for the home operator automatically. If successful the Multi-Tech wireless modem registers to the home network.
If the home network is not found, the Multi-Tech wireless modem goes on searching. If a permitted operator is found, the Multi-Tech wireless modem registers to this operator.
If no operator is found the Multi-Tech wireless modem remains unregistered.
• Manual
Desired operator can be determined using the AT+COPS write command. If the operator is found, the Multi-Tech wireless modem registers to it immediately. If the selected operator is forbidden, the Multi-Tech wireless modem remains unregistered.
• Manual/automatic
The ME first tries to find the operator determined via AT+COPS write command. If it is able to register to this operator, it enters the manual operator selection mode. If the ME cannot find this operator or fails to register to this operator, then it enters the automatic operator selection mode and starts to select the home operators network or another (permitted) one.
The most recently entered operator selection mode is still valid after the ME was restarted.
(power-off/on).
The AT+COPS test command lists sets of four parameters, each representing an operator present in the network.
A set consists of
• an integer indicating the availability of the operator,
• long alphanumeric format of the operator’s name and
• numeric format representation of the operator.
Any of the parameters may be unavailable and will then be an empty field (,,).
The list of operators comes in the following order: Home network, networks referenced in SIM and other networks. The operator list is followed by a list of the supported <mode>s and
<format>s. These lists are delimited from the operator list by two commas.
Multi-Tech Systems, Inc. AT Commands for EDGE Modems (S000371B) 93
Chapter 8 – Network Service Commands
If the test command is used during an ongoing GPRS transfer, traffic will be interrupted for up to one minute.
The AT+COPS read command returns the current <mode> and the currently selected operator. If no operator is selected, <format> and <oper> are omitted.
The AT+COPS write command forces an attempt to select and register to the GSM network operator (see note below). If the selected operator is not available, no other operator will be selected (except <mode>=4). The selected operator name <format> will apply to further read commands, too.

8.3 AT^SOPS Extended Operator Selection
Description: AT^SOPS queries the present status of the Multi-Tech wireless modem’s network registration.
Since basic operator selection services are available with AT+COPS this command uses the methods of the Enhanced Operator Name String (EONS) specification while handling operator name strings. Additional EONS related information is available with AT^SIND.
AT^SOPS test command lists sets of five parameters, each representing an operator present in the network.
A set consists of:
1. an integer indicating the availability of the operator,
2. specification of the source of the operator name <eonsOperator>,
3. operator name according to EONS Table,
4. Service Provider Name from the SIM Service Table and
5. numeric format representation of the operator.
Any of the parameters may be unavailable and will then be an empty field (,,).
The list of operators comes in the following order: Home network, networks referenced in SIM and other networks.
After the operator list the Multi-Tech wireless modem returns lists of supported <mode>s and
<format>s. These lists are delimited from the operator list by two commas.
If the test command is used while an ongoing GPRS transfer, traffic will be interrupted for up to one minute.

8.4 AT+CREG Network Registration
Description: The AT+CREG command serves to verify the network registration status of the ME. For this purpose two types of URCs are available.
The AT+CREG read command returns the URC presentation mode <n> and an integer <stat> that shows the registration status of the ME. The location information elements <lac> and <ci> are returned only when <n>=2 and ME is registered to the network.

<stat>
0 Not registered. ME is currently not searching for new operator.
Normally, status 0 occurs temporarily between two network search phases (Status 2). However, if it persists, one of the following reasons may apply:
• Automatic network selection is active, but probably there is:
∗ No SIM card available
∗ No PIN entered
∗ No valid Home PLMN entry found on the SIM
• Manual network selection is active, and the selected network is available, but login fails due to one of the following reasons:
∗ #11 ... PLMN not allowed
∗ #12 ... Location area not allowed
∗ #13 ... Roaming not allowed in this location area
In either case, user intervention is required. Yet, emergency calls can be made if any network is available.
1
2
Registered to home network
Not registered, but ME is currently searching for a new operator.
The ME searches for an available network. Failure to log in until after more than a minute may be due to one of the following causes:
• No network available or insufficient Rx level.
• The ME has no access rights to the networks available.
• Networks from the SIM list of allowed networks are around, but login fails due to one of the following reasons:
∗ #11 ... PLMN not allowed
∗ #12 ... Location area not allowed
∗ #13 ... Roaming not allowed in this location area
After this, the search will be resumed (if automatic network search is enabled).
• The Home PLMN or an allowed PLMN is available, but login is rejected by the cell (reasons:
Access Class or LAC).
If at least one network is available, emergency calls can be made.

Notes
• To some extent, the cell monitoring commands AT^SMOND, AT^MONI, AT^MONP and AT^SMONC cover the same parameters. The receiving level, for example, can be queried with all three commands. Yet the resulting values may be slightly different, even though obtained over a time period of a few seconds. This is quite normal and nothing to worry about, as the cell information is permanently updated.
• During a connection, not all of the neighbour cell information can be decoded. The following restrictions apply:
∗ Information is updated only for neighbour cells that have already been visible at connection setup, and continue to be included in the list of cells.
∗ New neighbour cells added to the list, for example after handover, cannot be displayed until the connection is released.

Notes:
• The two header lines (see Section 8.8.1, AT^MONI responses) are output after every ten data lines.
• The length of following output lines exceeds 80 characters. Therefore a terminal program may draw a carriage return on a screen. However, this is not part of the response.
• The parameters LAC and cell are presented as hexadecimal digits, the remaining parameters are composed of decimal digits.
• If the radio cell changes during a connection, the parameters PWR, RXLev and C1 of the ‘Serving Cell’ part cannot be updated under certain conditions and therefore, are displayed as “-“ (for conditions see also
AT+CREG). This is because the MS does not update the cell selection and reselection parameters since, in this mode, they are not relevant for operation. When the connection ends, and the mobile is back to IDLE mode, correct values will be given.
If the radio cell changes during a connection, it normally takes 1 or 2 seconds to update the parameters cell,
NCC and BCC. Until the information is received from the new base station, the default values will be shown instead: cell=”0000”, NCC=”-“, BCC=”-“.
• If the BS supports frequency hopping during a connection, the dedicated channel (parameter chann) is not stable. This mode is indicated by chann = ‘h’.
• To some extent, the cell monitoring command AT^SMONC covers the same parameters. The receiving level, for example, can be queried with both commands. Yet the resulting values may be slightly different, even though obtained over a time period of a few seconds. This is quite normal and nothing to worry about, as the cell information is permanently updated.
• For compatibility with earlier products and to support legacy applications, any input character may be used to stop the output in certain cases (depending on the settings of AT+IPR and AT+CMUX).

8.8.2 Service States
Depending on the service state, an additional textual output is generated (refer also to the response examples):
• ‘Searching’ - The MS is searching, but could not (yet) find a suitable cell. This output appears after restart of the
MS or after loss of coverage.
• ‘No connection’ - The MS is camping on a cell and registered to the network. The service state is idle; i.e., there is no connection established or a dedicated channel in use.
• ‘Cell Reselection’ - The MS has not yet lost coverage but is searching for a better cell, since the cell reselection criterion is fulfilled.
• ‘Limited Service’ - The MS is camping on a cell but not registered to the network. Only emergency calls are allowed. The MS enters this state, for example, when
∗ no SIM card is inserted, or PIN has not been given,
∗ neither Home PLMN nor any other allowed PLMN are found,
∗ registration request was not answered or denied by the network (use command AT+CREG to query the registration status),
∗ authentication failed.

Notes:
• Due to the fact that not all necessary information of the neighbour cells can be decoded during a connection, there are several constraints to be considered:
∗ Only neighbor cells that have already been visible in IDLE mode will be further updated, as long as they are still included in the list.
∗ Though new neighbor cells can be added to the list (e.g., due to handover), their C1 and C2 parameters cannot be displayed until the connection is released. In this case “-“ is presented for C1 and C2.
∗ To some extent, the cell monitoring command AT^SMONC covers the same parameters. The receiving level, for example, can be queried with both commands. Yet the resulting values may be slightly different, even though obtained over a time period of a few seconds. This is quite normal and nothing to worry about, as the cell information is permanently updated.
• For compatibility with earlier products and to support legacy applications, any input character may be used to stop the output in certain cases (depending on the settings of AT+IPR and AT+CMUX).

Chapter 9 – Supplementary Service Commands
Notes:
• You can register, disable, enable and erase reason 4 and 5 as described above. However, querying the status of reason 4 and 5 with AT+CCFC will result in an error (“CME error: Operation not supported”). As an alternative, you may use the ATD command followed by *’# codes to check the status of these two reasons.
See Star-Hash (*#) Network Commands for a complete list of *# GSM codes. See also examples below.
• Most networks will not permit registration of new parameters for conditional call forwarding (reasons 1,2,3,5) while unconditional call forwarding is enabled.
• The AT+CCFC command offers a broad range of call forwarding options according to the GSM specifications.
However, when you attempt to set a call forwarding option which is not provisioned or not yet subscribed to, the setting will not take effect regardless of the response returned. The responses in these cases vary with the network (for example “OK”, “Operation not allowed”, “Operation not supported” etc.). To make sure check the call forwarding status with <mode>=2.
• Some networks may choose to have certain call forwarding condtions permanently enabled (e.g., forwarding to a mailbox if the mobile is not reachable). In this case, erasure or deactivation of call forwarding for these conditions will not be successful, even if the CCFC request is answered with response “OK”.
• The command has been implemented with the full set of <class> parameters according to GSM 07.07. For actual applicability of SS “call forwarding” to a specific service or service group (a specific Class value) please consult
Table A.1 of GSM 02.04.
• There is currently no release of GSM standard “GSM 02.04”, in which the “Call Forwarding” Supplementary
Service is defined as applicable to SMS services.
Example:
Please note that when you configure or query call forwarding without specifying any classes, the settings will refer to classes 1, 2 and 4 only (=default). The handling of classes is equivalent to AT+CLCK.
• To register the destination number for unconditional call forwarding (CFU): at+ccfc=0,3,”+493012345678”,145
OK
The destination number will be registered for voice, data and fax services (default <class> 7).
In most networks, the registration will also cause call forwarding to be activated for these <class> values.
• To query the status of CFU without specifying <class>: at+ccfc=0,2
+CCFC: 1,1,”+493012345678”,145
+CCFC: 1,2,”+493012345678”,145
+CCFC: 1,4,”+493012345678”,145
OK
• To deactivate CFU without specifying <class>: at+ccfc=0,0
OK
To check whether CFU was successfully deactivated (note that the destination number remains registered in the network when you disable CFU):
• To erase the registered CFU destination number: at+ccfc=0,4
OK
Now, when you check the status, no destination number will be indicated: at+ccfc=0,2
+CCFC: 0,1
+CCFC: 0,2
+CCFC: 0,4
OK
• To query the status of CFU for all classes: at+ccfc=0,2,,,255

Unsolicited Result Codes:
URC 1
Indication of a call that is currently waiting and can be accepted.
+CCWA: <calling number>, <type of number>, <class>, , <CLI validity>
If <n>=1 and the call waiting supplementary service is enabled in the network, URC “+CCWA” indicates a waiting call to the TE. It appears while the waiting call is still ringing.
URC 2
Indication of a call that has been waiting.
^SCWA
If <n>=1 and the call waiting supplementary service is enabled in the network, this URC indicates that a waiting call rang when the ME was in online mode during a CSD call, but the calling party hung up before the ME went back to command mode.
Notes
• If the active call is a CSD call, and a waiting call is received, then the ME produces a BREAK while still in online mode, and displays
∗ the +CCWA URC (as above) when the ME goes back to command mode while the waiting call is still active and can be accepted;
∗ or the ^SCWA URC (as above) when the ME goes back to command mode after the waiting call has ended.
• With the AT+CHLD command, it is possible to establish a multiparty call or to set the active voice call on hold and then accept a waiting voice call (not possible with fax and data call). See also AT+CHLD
• Users should be aware that if call waiting is activated (<mode>=1), the presentation of URCs needs to be enabled, too (<n>=1).
Otherwise, on the one hand, a waiting caller would be kept waiting due to lack of BUSY signals, while, on the other hand, the waiting call would not be indicated to the called party.
• The AT+CCWA command offers a broad range of options according to the GSM specifications. However, when you attempt to enable call waiting for a <class> for which the service is not provisioned or not supported, the setting will not take effect regardless of the response returned. The responses in these cases vary with the network (for example “OK”, “Operation not allowed”, “Operation not supported” etc.). To make sure check the current call waiting settings with <mode>=2.
• The AT+CCWA command has been implemented with the full set of <class> parameters according to GSM
07.07. For actual applicability of SS call waiting to a specific service or service group (a specific <class> value) please consult table A.1 of GSM 02.04
• Despite the specifications stated in GSM 02.04 call waiting is not handled uniformly among all networks: GSM
02.04, Annex A, provides the following specification:
“The applicability of call waiting refers to the telecommunication service of the active call and not of the waiting call. The incoming, waiting, call may be of any kind.” Nevertheless, networks do differ on the actual implementation of the service. For example, the activation of call waiting for <class> 4, “fax”, causes some networks to send a call waiting indication if a call “of any kind” comes in during an active fax call, but others may
(with the same settings active) indicate a waiting fax call during any kind of active call. Thus, the only reliable way to receive or prevent a call waiting indication under any circumstances and in any network, is to activate or deactivate call waiting for all tele- and bearer services (<class> 255).
Examples
Example 1
Parameter <n> at+ccwa=1 To enable the presentation of the URC

Example 2
Parameter <mode> at+ccwa=,1 To activate the supplementary service in the network for voice, data, and fax calls (default classes).

9.8 AT+CHLD Call Hold and Multiparty
Description:
1X
TA controls the Supplementary Services Call Hold and Multiparty. Calls can be put on hold, recovered, released, and added to a conversation.
As for all Supplementary Services, the availability and detailed functionality of Call Hold and Multiparty services depends on the configuration of the GSM network. The Multi-Tech wireless modem can only request the service, but the network decides whether and how the request will be answered.

Release all held calls or set User Determined User Busy (UDUB) for a waiting call:
• If a call is waiting, release the waiting call. The calling party will receive a “BUSY” indication
(Supplementary Service User Determined User Busy “UDUB”)
• Otherwise, terminate all held calls (if any).
Terminate all active calls (if any) and accept “the other call” as the active call:
• If a call is waiting, the waiting call will be accepted.
• Otherwise, if a held call is present, the held call becomes active.
Terminate a specific call X (X= 1-7). The call may be active, held or waiting.
The remote party of the terminated call will receive a “NO CARRIER” indication.

2X
Parameter X is the call number <idx> of the targeted call in the list of current calls available with
AT command AT+CLCC.
Place all active calls on hold (if any) and accept “the other call” as the active call:
• If a call is waiting, the waiting call will be accepted.
• Otherwise, if a held call is present, the held call becomes active.
Place all active calls except call X (X= 1-7) on hold. Parameter X is the call number <idx> of the targeted call in the list of current calls available with AT command AT+CLCC.
Add a held call to the active calls in order to set up a conference (multiparty) call. 3
Notes:
• The AT+CHLD command offers a broad range of options according to the GSM specifications. However, if you attempt to invoke an option which is not provisioned by the network, or not subscribed to, invocation of this option will fail. The responses in these cases may vary with the network (for example “Operation not allowed”,
“Operation not supported” etc.).
• The handling of the supplementary service Call hold and Multiparty varies with the types of calls. This is because only voice calls can be put on hold, while data or fax calls cannot. The following procedures apply:
With AT+CHLD=2 the user can simultaneously place a voice call on hold and accept another waiting voice, data or fax call. If the waiting call is a data or fax call, it is also possible to put the voice call on hold. To switch back from the active data or fax call to the held voice call the active call must be terminated with AT+CHLD=1. If all active and held calls are voice calls it is possible to switch back and forth with AT+CHLD=2.
• In conflict situations (e.g., when a waiting call comes while there are already held calls), the above procedures apply to the waiting call only. For example, <n>=0 rejects the waiting call, but does not affect the held calls.
• See also the AT+CCWA command for details on how to display waiting calls.
See the Example on the next page.

Parameter Descriptions:
+CME ERROR: <err>
<currency>
Three-character currency code (e.g., “GBP”, “EUR”). If the currency name is longer than three characters, all characters will be cut off after the third position. Before they are written to the SIM Card, these characters are converted to the standard GSM alphabet.
<ppu>
Price per unit; dot is used as a decimal separator (e.g., “2.66”). The length is limited to 20 characters. If the string length is exceeded, the command is terminated with an error. This string may only contain digits and a dot.
Leading zeros are removed from the string. The minimum and maximum value are determined by the structure of the SIM-PUCT file. The maximum price per unit value is 999 999 999.00. When successfully entered, this value is rounded to maximum accuracy.
Note: Due to storage in mantisse (range 0-4095) and exponent (-7 to 7) it is possible that rounding errors occur.
<passwd>
SIM PIN2. String parameter which can contain any combination of characters. The maximum string length is limited to 8 characters. If this value is exceeded, the command terminates with an error message. If the PIN2 is incorrect, a CME error (+CME ERROR: incorrect password) is output.
Example:
Two ways to change currency and/or price per unit:
1. You can enter PIN2 along with the AT+CPUC command:
AT+CPUC=”EUR”,”0.10”,”8888” (where “8888” = PIN2)
OK
2. Alternatively, you can first use the AT+CPIN2 command to enter PIN2. When you execute the AT+CPUC command, subsequently, take into account that PIN2 authentication expires after 300ms (see notes in
AT+CPIN2).
AT+CPUC=”EUR”,”0.10”
OK
AT+CPUC=”EUR”,”0.10”
Successful

Chapter 10 – Internet Service Commands
Chapter 10. Internet Service
Commands
The Multi-Tech Wireless EDGE modem has an embedded TCP/IP stack that is driven by AT commands and enables the host application to easily access the Internet. The advantage of this solution is that it eliminates the need for the application manufacturer to implement its own TCP/IP and PPP stacks, thus minimizing cost and time to integrate
Internet connectivity into a new or existing host application. This chapter is a reference guide to all the AT commands and responses defined for use with the TCP/IP stack.
Access is provided to the following Internet Services:
1. Socket Client and Server for TCP, Client for UDP
2. FTP Client
3. HTTP Client
4. SMTP Client
5. POP3 Client
Step-by-step instructions on how to configure and use TCP/IP communications with Multi-Tech Wireless
EDGE modem:
•
•
First of all, create a connection profile with AT^SICS. The connection profile is a set of basic parameters that determine the type of connection to use for an Internet service. Up to 6 connection profiles can be defined, each identified by the <conProfileId>.
Secondly, use AT^SISS to create a service profile based on one of the connection profiles. Up to 10 service profiles can be defined, each identified by the <srvProfileId>. The service profile specifies the type of
Internet service to use, i.e. Socket, FTP, HTTP, or one of the email services SMTP or POP3. To assign a
•
•
• connection profile to a service profile, the <conProfileId> of AT^SICS must be entered as “conId” value of the AT^SISS parameter <srvParmTag>.
This offers great flexibility to combine connection profiles and service profiles. For example, you may have one connection profile (CSD or GPRS) specified with AT^SICS which can be associated with an SMTP service profile for sending emails and a POP3 service profile for retrieving emails.
Once the connection profile and the service profile are created, an Internet session can be opened by entering the AT^SISO write command and the desired <srvProfileId>. Wait for the resulting URC.
The next command determines the action to be performed, for example reading data with AT^SISR or writing data with AT^SISW. Wait for the resulting URC.
Finally, to end a session, enter the AT^SISC write command and the <srvProfileId>.
Maximum number of profiles defined / used:
•
•
•
Up to 6 connection profiles can be created (with AT^SICS).
Up to 10 service profiles can be created (with AT^SISS), but the number of parallel profiles of the same service type is limited as listed below. If the maximum number of a service profile type is already defined, any attempt to set up another profile for the same type will be denied with “+CME ERROR: unknown”.
∗ - Maximum 3 HTTP profiles
∗ - Maximum 6 socket profiles: Only two instances can be opened for the listener. This means that if two listeners are established another four instances can be opened for clients. Also, the socket service can accept an incoming connection only when at least one service profile is still free (not yet created with AT^SISS); otherwise, the incoming connection will be closed to the listener. If there is no listener established, all six socket profiles can be configured as Client.
∗ - 1 FTP profile
∗ - 1 POP3 profile
∗ - 1 SMTP profile
The TCP/IP stack of Multi-Tech Wireless EDGE modem supports using several service profiles at the same time, provided all of them are running on the same connection profile. For example, it is possible to download files from an FTP server, while sending and receiving emails at the same time.
• GPRS connections established over the Dial-Up Network do not use the embedded TCP/IP stack of Multi-
Tech Wireless EDGE modem and can be active at the same time. This allows the user to have two parallel
GPRS connections: for example for sending or receiving emails over a GPRS connection enabled by the
TCP/IP stack while, at the same time, surfing the Internet over a Dial-Up Network GPRS connection.

Chapter 10 – Internet Service Commands
Using Internet Service AT commands on several interfaces (ASC0, ASC1, USB or Multiplex mode on ASC0):
•
•
A connection profile can be created on one interface and then viewed or changed on all other interfaces.
A service profile can be used only on one interface at a time:
∗ Changes to a service profile are allowed only on the same interface where it was created, trying to change it on another interface is denied with “+CME ERROR: Invalid index”. If queried with the read command AT^SISS the entire profile is returned on the interface where the service profile was created, while on all other interfaces only the service type of the profile is stated.
∗ If a service profile is active (after opening it with AT^SISO) on one interface, any attempt to open or close the same service profile on another interface is denied with “+CME ERROR: Operation temporary not allowed”.
∗ To free a service profile for use on another interface, use the AT^SISS command and select service type = “none”. This action deletes the entire profile and restores all parameters of the profile to their initial power-up state (all values are empty). For example, to remove the service profile 3, set AT^SISS=3,svrtype, none. After this, a new profile 3 can be created on any other interface.
Address Notation:
Server addresses must be provided as IP addresses in standard dot-format (e.g., “192.168.1.2”) or as server address names resolvable by a DNS server (e.g., “smtp.myserver.de” or “pop3.myserver.de”).
Inactivity Timeouts:
Inactivity timeouts are not part of the Internet AT command functionality implemented with Multi-Tech wireless modem and, if desired, are the responsibility of the host application. It is recommended that the host application validates URCs and AT command responses and reacts adequately. Example: Sending a close message or a starting timer.
10.1 AT^SICS Internet Connection Setup Profile
Description: AT^SICS serves to create and edit Internet connection profiles. A connection profile can be assigned to one or more service profiles defined with AT^SISS, and thus, determines which type of connection is to be established when opening a service profile with AT^SISO.
The AT^SICS read command requests the current settings of all Internet connection profiles. One line is issued for every possible parameter of a given <conParmTag> “conType” value.
The AT^SICS write command specifies all parameters of a connection profile identified by
<conProfileId>. At first, the type of Internet connection needs to be selected via <conParmTag> value “conType”. This determines the applicability of all other <conParmTag> values related to this
“conType” and automatically sets their defaults. An exception to the <conParmValue-alphabet> which can be set before or after selecting “con-Type”. To change the settings the write command needs to be executed for each single <conParmTag>.
All profile parameters set with AT^SICS are volatile. Therefore, the best practice is to use scripts and let the host application handle the required At commands.

Parameter Descriptions:
<conProfileId>
Internet connection profile identifier.
The <conProfileId> identifies all parameters of a connection profile, and, when a service profile is created with AT^SISS the <conProfileId> needs to be set as “conId” value of the AT^SISS parameter <srv-ParmTag>.
0...5
<conParmTag>
Internet connection parameter.
“conType“ Type of Internet connection.
“alphabet“
For supported values of <conParmValue> refer to <conParmValue-con-Type>.
Selects the character set for input and output of string parameters within a profile.
The selected value is bound to the specific profile. This means that different profiles may use different alphabets. Unlike other parameters, the alphabet can be changed whether or not <conParmTag> value “conType” has been set.
“user“
For supported values of <conParmValue> refer to <conParmValuealphabet>.
User name string: maximum 32 characters (where “” is default).
“passwd“
“apn“
“inactTO“
“calledNum“
“dataRate“
“dataType“
“authMode“
“dns1“
“dns2“
Password string: maximum 32 characters (where “” is default). If the <conParmValueauthMode> is “MsChapV1”, then the maximum password length is 16 characters.
Access point name string value: maximum 100 characters (where “” is default).
Inactivity timeout value in seconds: 0. Changing the value is not allowed.
Called BCD number.
Data rate.
For supported values of <conParmValue> refer to <conParmValue-dataRate>.
Data call type.
For supported values of <conParmValue> refer to <conParmValuedataType>.
Authentication mode.
For supported values of <conParmValue> refer to <conParmValue-auth-Mode>.
Primary DNS server address (IP address in dotted-four-byte format).
This value determines whether to use the DNS server addresses dynamically assigned by the network or a specific DNS server address given by the user.
“dns1” = “0.0.0.0” (default) means that the CSD or GPRS connection profile uses dynamic DNS assignment. Any other address means that the Primary DNS is manually set.
The default value applies automatically if no other address is set. Note that the
AT^SICS read command only returns a manually configured IP address, while the value “0.0.0.0” is not indicated at all, no matter whether assumed by default or explicitly specified.
Secondary DNS server address (IP address in dotted-four-byte format).
If “dns1” = “0.0.0.0” this setting will be ignored. Otherwise this value can be used to manually configure an alternate server for the DNS1.
If “dns1” is not equal “0.0.0.0” and no “dns2” address is given, then “dns2”=”0.0.0.0” will be assumed automatically. The AT^SICS read command only returns a manually configured IP address, while the value “0.0.0.0” is not indicated at all, no matter whether assumed by default or explicitly specified.
<conParmValue>
Parameter value; type and supported content depend on related <conParmTag>.
<conParmValue-conType>
Supported connection type values in <conParmValue> for <conParmTag> value “conType”.
“CSD“ Circuit-switched data call.
“GPRS0“ GPRS connection.
Settings of GPRS related commands are not used, e.g. AT+CGDCONT. When a service that is based on a GPRS connection profile is started after entering AT^SISO, the wireless modem automatically tries to attach to the GPRS. Yet, the only exception is AT+CGATT which can be used anytime to detach from the GPRS and, thus, disconnect the bearer opened with AT^SISO.
“none” Clears the connection profile.

10.2 AT^SISS Internet Service Setup Profile
Description: AT^SISS serves to set up the necessary parameters in the Internet service profiles. Any service profile can then be used to control a data link in conjunction with AT^SISO, AT^SISC, AT^SISR and
AT^SISW.
The read command requests the current settings of all Internet service profiles. One line is issued for every possible parameter of a given <srvParmTag> “srvType” value.
The write command specifies the parameters for a service profile identified by <srvProfileId>. At first the type of Internet service needs to be selected via <srvParmTag> value “srvType”. This determines the applicability of all other <srvParmTag> values related to this “srvType” and sets their defaults. An exception is <srvParmTag-alphabet> which can be set before or after selecting
“srvType”. To change the settings the write command needs to be executed for each single
<srvParmTag>.
All profile parameters set with AT^SISS are volatile. Therefore, the best practice is to use scripts and let the host application handle the required AT commands.

[;type=’a|i’][;size=’length’][;mode=’u|a|d’] “
Used parameters:
“host” is mandatory; all other parameters are optional. If “password” is set, then “user” must be set as well.
If “user” is omitted, the string “anonymous” is selected for “user” and
“password”.
If “password” is omitted, the password request is served by an empty string.
If “tcpPort” is omitted, the service connects to the FTP default port 21.
If “url-path” contains only the IP address, a directory listing is requested.
If “url-path” contains only the IP address and has a slash ‘/’ appended, a detailed directory listing is requested.
“type”: [a)scii | i)mage | d)irectory]
“size”: Specifies the total amount of upload data. For each part, the transmission is triggered by the URC “^SISW: x, 1”, then the
AT^SISW write command can be executed. After the last packet the
URC “^SISW: x, 2” indicates that all data have been transferred and the FTP connection is shut down. Afterwards, the service can be closed with AT^SISC.
If “size” is not given the upload procedure is the same, except that the
AT^SISC=0 command must be executed after sending the last packet, and the URC “^SISW: x, 2” will appear afterwards to indicate the end of data transfer.
“mode”: [u)nique | a)ppend | d)elete]

4. SMTP
• SMTP server address (string).
Length 4...256.
5. POP3
• POP3 server address (string).
Length 4...256.
Optional parameter for HTTP method “Post”.
Can be used to transfer a small amount of data. The content of this string will only be sent if “hcContLen” = 0. The maximum length of “hcContent” is 128 bytes.
To transmit a larger amount of data “hcContLen” must be set to a non-zero value.
In this case the “hcContent” string will be ignored, and data transmission from the client to the server is done with
AT^SISW
.
Mandatory parameter for HTTP method “Post”.
The content length shall be set in the header of the HTTP “Post” request before the data part is transferred.
If “hcContLen” = 0 then the data given in the “hcContent” string will be posted.
If “hcContLen” > 0 then the AT^SISW command will be used to send data from the client to the server. In this case, “hcContLen” specifies the total amount of data to be sent. The data can be sent in one or several parts. For each part, the transmission is triggered by the URC “^SISW: x, 1”, then the AT^SISW write command can be executed. Finally, the URC “^SISW: x, 2” indicates that all data have been transferred and the service can be closed with AT^SISC.
“hcUsrAgent“
“hcMethod“
“hcProp“
The user agent string must be set by the application to identify the mobile. Usually operation system and software version info is set with this browser identifier.
HTTP method specification: 0=GET, 1=POST, 2=HEAD.
Parameter for several HTTP settings.
The general format is ‘key’: <space> ‘value’ “\0d\0a”. Multiple settings can be given separated by “\0d\0a” sequences within the string.
Possible ‘key’ values are defined at HTTP/1.1 Standard RFC 2616.
“hcRedir“
“hcAuth“
This flag controls the redirection mechanism of the Multi-Tech Wireless EDGE modem acting as an HTTP client (numeric).
If the flag is set (1), the client automatically sends a new HTTP request if the server answers with a redirect code (range 30x). Default is 0 (no direction)
If set (1), this flag determines that the HTTP client will automatically answer on authentication requests from the server with the current “passwd” and “user” parameter settings. If these parameters are not specified, the Multi-Tech Wireless
EDGE modem will terminate the HTTP connection and send an indication to the
TA. Default is 0.
“smFrom“ Email sender address; i.e., “MAIL FROM” address (string).
6...256.
A valid address parameter consists of local part and domain name delimited by a
‘@’ character; e.g., “ [email protected]
”.
“smRcpt“ Recipient address of the email; i.e., “RCPT TO” address (string).
Length:
If multiple recipient addresses are to be supplied the comma character is used as delimiter to separate individual address values; e.g.,
“ [email protected],[email protected]
”.
“smCC“
“smSubj“
CC recipient address of the email (string).
Length:
If multiple CC recipient addresses are to be supplied, the comma character is used as a delimiter to separate address values; e.g.,
“ [email protected],tom.meier@somedomain. de ”.
Subject content of the email (string).
Length:
If no subject is supplied the email will be sent with an empty subject.
“smHdr“ This parameter, if set, will be appended at the end of the email header section
(string).
Length:
Hence, it serves as a generic header field parameter which allows the user to provide any email header field. It is the user’s responsibility to provide correct header fields!
String of max. 512 characters.
Example for multipart MIME messages: “Content-Type: multipart/mixed”.

“smAuth“ SMTP authentication control flag (numeric).
If disabled (<srvParmValue> “0” by default), the Multi-Tech Wireless EDGE modem performs action without SMTP authentication.
If enabled (<srvParmValue> “1”), authentication procedure with the SMTP server will be performed by means of supported authentication methods, using values of
“user” and “passwd” parameters. If the Multi-Tech Wireless EDGE modem and
SMTP server are not able to negotiate an authentication mechanism supported by both parties, the Multi-Tech Wireless EDGE modem continues action without authentication.
Multi-Tech Wireless EDGE modem supports SMTP login authentication.
POP3 user command to be executed by the POP3 service (numeric).
For supported values of <srvParmValue> refer to <srvParmValue-pCmd>.

“pLength” can be used to specify the length of the message(s) to be retrieved from or deleted on the POP3 server. If no specific value is set in the service profile, the default value “0” is assumed, which means that there is no limit on the message size.
A warning will be issued inthe following cases:
• If “pNumber” >0 and a specific message to be retrieved from / deleted on the server is longer than “pLength”.
• If “pNumber” = 0 and all messages to be retrieved from / deleted on the server are longer than “pLength”.
No warning will be issued in the following cases:
• If there are no messages at all on the server.
• If the server has message(s) below and above the “pLength” specified.
In this case, the message(s) within the range of “pLength” can be successfully retrieved or deleted, but the message(s) above “pLength” remain on the server without any further notification given to the user.
• Therefore, after retrieving / deleting messages, it is recommended to check the message status on the server. This can be done by adding a further POP3 service profile using the POP3 user command List “2”.
“pDelFlag“ Flag to be used with the POP3 user command Retrieve (“3”). Specifies whether or not to delete retrieved emails on the server (optional).
For supported values of <srvParmValue> refer to <srvParmValuepDelFlag>.
<srvParmValue>
Parameter value; type and supported content depend on related <srvParmTag>.
<srvParmValue-servType>
Supported Internet service type values in <srvParmValue> for <srvParmTag> value “srvType”.
Before changing the “srvType” of an existing service profile be sure that the profile is closed. To verify the connection state of the service profile enter the read command AT^SISO. Only when <srvState>=2 is returned for this specific service profile you can change its server type. Otherwise, changing the server type would immediately deregister the service (i.e., its TCP/IP connection would be immediately shut down).

The Multi-Tech wireless modem acting as client or server (listener) for TCP, or as client for UDP. If the wireless modem is listener two service profiles are required.
The first socket profilemust be configured as listener. The second service profile will be dynamicallyassigned when a socket connection request from a remote client is incoming.
For this purpose, one service profile must be left free (= not configured withAT^SISS). An incoming socket connection request will be indicated by the”^SIS” URC, with the next free <srvProfileId> shown inside the URC as parameter <urcInfoId>. The connection request can be accepted or rejected by using AT^SISO or AT^SISC and the ID retrieved from the “^SIS”.

<srvParmValue-alphabet>
Supported string parameter character set selections in <srvParmValue> for <srvParmTag> value “alphabet”.
“0“
“1“
Applicable character set is determined by current setting of AT+CSCS. Default.
International Reference Alphabet (IRA, seven bit ASCII).
<srvParmValue-pCmd>
Supported POP3 user command values in <srvParmValue> for <srvParmTag> value “pCmd”.
“1“ Status command.
This command retrieves the “drop listing” of a POP3 server. A “drop listing” consists of a single line containing the number of messages in the maildrop list followed by the total size of the maildrop list in bytes. Each drop listing will be finished by a so-called “dotline”, i.e. a new line with just a single dot.
“2“
“3“
List command.
If <srvParmTag> value “pNumber” is set to a non-zero value, the “List” command returns the
“scan listing” consisting of a single line which contains the message number and the message size in bytes if the specified message exists in the maildrop list on the POP3 server.
If no such message exists on the server than the POP3 service issues an error response to the user.
If <srvParmTag> value “pNumber” is zero, the “List” command returns a multi-line “scan listing”.
For each message on the maildrop list of the server the POP3 service returns a line containing the message number and its size in bytes. A final “dotline” will be printed at the end of the “scan listing”.
If there are no messages on the maildrop list of the server, the POP3 service returns a positive response, i.e. it doesn’t issue an error response, but the “scan listing” will be empty.
In either case, each scan listing will be finished by a so-called “dotline”; i.e., a new line with just a single dot.
Retrieve command.
If <srvParmTag> value “pNumber” is set to a non-zero value, this command retrieves the related message from the POP3 server’s maildrop list.
If no such message exists on the server the POP3 service issues an error response to the user.
It depends on the parameter “pDelFlag” if the message will be deleted from the POP3 server upon successful retrieval.
If <srvParmTag> value “pNumber” is zero, the “Retrieve” command returns all messages pending in the POP3 server’s maildrop.
If there are no messages on the maildrop list of the server the POP3 service returns with a positive response, i.e. it doesn’t issue an error response, but the returned list will be empty.
Each email will be finished by a so-called “dotline”; i.e., a new line with just a single dot.
“4“ Delete command.
<srvParmTag> value “pNumber” is set to a non-zero value, the command deletes the related message from the POP3 server’s maildrop list. In fact, the message is marked as deleted on the server and will be deleted permanently if the POP3 service command executes successfully. In case an error has occurred; e.g., network loss, the message will not be deleted on the server even though the POP3 service command has been finished.
If <srvParmTag> value “pNumber” is zero, the “Delete” command deletes all message from the
POP3 server’s maildrop list. In fact, the messages are marked as deleted on the server and will be deleted permanently if the POP3 service command executes successfully. In case an error has occurred, the messages will not be deleted on the server even though the POP3 service command has been finished.
<srvParmValue-pDelFlag>
Supported flag values in <srvParmValue> for <srvParmTag> value “pDelFlag”. Only applicable if the profile contains the POP3 user command Retrieve (“3”).
“0“
“1“
Messages will not be deleted on the server. Default.
Delete messages on the server which have been retrieved successfully.

10.3 AT^SISO Internet Service Open
Description: The AT^SISO write command starts the Internet session configured by the service profile. If the service open successfully, the URCs ^SISR and ^SISW will trigger the action to follow, either writing data with AT^SISW of reading data with AT^SISR. If the
“^SISW” and “^SISR” URCs notify that no data is available at all, or that a data transfer has been successful, the service can be closed with AT^SISC. If an error occurs after opening or while using a service then the URC type “^SIS” described below will be delivered.
In any case, an opened service must be finished by sending the Close command
AT^SISC. This applies no matter whether the service has been completed successfully
(all data transmitted) or entered an error state (e.g., indicated by the “^SIS” URC). It is also necessary when a service, such as POP3 or FTP, has already closed automatically after successful data transfer and entered <srvState> “2”.
The AT^SISO read command requests the status of all Internet service profiles. One line is issued for every Internet service profile. Information following <srvParmTag> value “srvType” is issued only if “srvType” was given a valid value via AT^SISS. The read command can be used any time during operation or after closing a service. In the latter case the response indicates the state of the last event related to a specific service profile. It will be updated only when the same service profile is used again.

The URC may appear if an error occurs, for example after opening an Internet service with AT^SISO or any time during operation. The URC also indicates a request for a mobile terminated Internet service client connection, or a failure if a mobile terminated request is rejected. Furthermore, the URC may deliver an information element resulting from a specific command given in the service profile.
The precise <urcInfoText> related to a <urcInfoId> varies greatly depending on the used service, the scenario and the implementation of the remote server. A list of possible causes can be found in Section 10.7, Info. Elements Related to Internet Service URCs.

(parameter <srvParmTag>, value “srvType” of AT^SISS). The service is not opened.
Connecting: State after opening a service with AT^SISO where the connection is being established.
If connection setup is successful the service proceeds to the state “4” (Connected) and one of the URCs “^SISW” and “^SISR” may follow. If connection setup is not successful, the “^SIS” may appear.
In the case of SMTP, the service will not enter <srvState>=3 until the host has written the first data packet with AT^SISW.
If the service profile is configured as Socket listener, then the listener always stays at
<srvState>=3 (listening) and <socketState>=3 (LISTENER), while the <srvState> and
<socketState> of the dynamically assigned service profile may change. See examples in Section 10.3.1.
Connected: Socket connection valid.
Closing: Socket connection releasing. The Closing state is reached after sending the
AT^SISC command or after a service has closed automatically, such as FTP download or POP3. In the latter case, it is necessary to send the AT^SISC command even though the FTP download or POP3 service has already entered <srvState> “2”.

Once the last service has been closed the bearer shuts down after a timeout of 20 seconds (i.e., the connection profile GPRS0 or CSD is closed). If a service related to the same connection profile starts up again within this time frame, the bearer will not be closed, but started again. This speeds up the handling of several service requests. Within this time frame it is neither possible to change the bearer type (from GPRS to CSD or vice versa) nor to start a service based on a different connection profile.
To disconnect the bearer before the timeout expires the command AT+CGATT=0 can be used in the case of

• <cnfReadLength> value greater than 0 indicates that the Multi-Tech Wireless EDGE modem switches into online data mode to transfer the given number of bytes.
A URC “^SISR: <srvProfileId>, <urcCauseId>[, <remainUdpPacketLength>]" will be issued if
• data is available after opening an Internet service or
• less data was confirmed (in <cnfReadLength>) than requested (with
<reqReadLength>) during the last “Read Data” operation and new data is available.
This mechanism eliminates the need to poll for fresh data and frees the TA for other tasks.

Confirmed number of data bytes to be read via the Internet service configured AT^SISS. This number may be less or equal to the value requested with <reqReadLength>. 0 value indicates that no data can be read.
<urcCauseId>
Indicates whether or not data is available for reading with AT^SISR.
0 No data available for reading
1 New data is available and can be read by sending AT^SISR. While the service is open, this URC appears each time when new data is available again. This eliminates the need to poll for fresh data.
2 Data transfer has been finished (all data read) and the service can be closed with AT^SISC.
<remainUdpPacketLength>.
Optional third parameter of the "^SISR" URC displayed only if the Socket service uses UDP.
The UDP protocol requires that data are received in the same order that they were sent from the remote host.
Consequently, the reception of each datagram must be completed before the next datagram can be received.
This may be a problem if the buffer of the host application is limited and not designed to handle the maximum packet size of 1500 bytes. To compensate this, the host is advised to request, via <reqReadLength>, an amount less or equal its maxmimum buffer capacity and wait for the resulting "^SISR" URC with parameter
<remainUdpPacketLength>. The benefit of this approach is that the host may properly receive all parts of a UDP datagram, as after each received data part the number of remaining bytes is synchronized, until reading the datagram is finished.
If the currently read datagram is smaller than the number of bytes requested by the host the
<remainUdpPacketLength> parameter is omitted.
0 Indicates that all bytes of the current UDP datagram are read.
1...(max. data size)-1 Indicates that the currently read UDP datagram is not yet complete. The displayed value is the remaining number of bytes.
<remainUdpPacketLength> is unequal 0 until reading all parts of the current datagram is finished.

10.5.1 Example: Socket Host Reads Small Amounts of UDP Data Packets
This section applies only to the Socket service using the UDP protocol. The example shows how to read UDP packets if the buffer of the host application can handle only a few bytes. There are two datagrams available for reading.
Buffer size: 6 bytes
Datagram A = 18 bytes (content "THIS_IS_DATAGRAM_A")
Datagram B = 3 bytes (content "NEW")
^SISR: 0,1 Service profile 0 is configured for Socket service and UDP. The URC notifies host that data are available for reading.
The host requests to read 6 bytes.
The first 6 bytes of datagram A are confirmed and transmitted. Another 12 bytes are still available. at^sisr=0,6
^SISR: 0,6,12
THIS_I
OK at^sisr=0,6
^SISR: 0,6,6
S_DATA
OK at^sisr=0,6
^SISR: 0,6,0
GRAM_A
OK at^sisr=0,6
The host requests to read the next part of 6 bytes.
The next 6 bytes of datagram A are confirmed and transmitted. Another
6 bytes are still available.
The host requests to read the next part of 6 bytes.
Last part of datagram A was received, no remainder is left.
^SISR: 0,3
NEW
OK
Again, the host requests to read 6 bytes. This time, the URC refers to datagram B which has only 3 bytes. As the read datagram is smaller than the size requested by the host, the
URC does not include the <remainUdpPacketLength>.
3 bytes are confirmed and transmitted. Datagram B was properly received.

10.6 AT^SISW Internet Service Write Data
Description: AT^SISW write command triggers writing data via the Internet service configured with AT^SISS.
Multi-Tech Wireless EDGE modem returns the amount of data which can be written:
• <cnfWriteLength> value equal 0 indicates that the Multi-Tech Wireless EDGE modem failed to enter online data mode. Details about the cause of failure is available using AT+CEER.
• <cnfWriteLength> value greater than 0 indicates that the Multi-Tech Wireless EDGE modem switches into online data mode to transfer the given number of bytes.
A URC “^SISW: <srvProfileId>, <urcCauseId>” will be issued if
• the Multi-Tech Wireless EDGE modem is capable to send data after opening the Internet service or
• less transmission buffer space was confirmed (in <cnfWriteLength>) than requested (with
<reqWrite-Length>) or contained data has been sent via the Internet service.
• or all available data has been transferred.
This mechanism is designed to avoid polling for free transmission buffer space and, thus, free the
TA for other tasks.

<cnfWriteLength>
Confirmed number of data bytes to be transmitted via the Internet service configured in <srvProfileId>. This number may be less or equal to the value requested with <reqWriteLength>. 0 value indicates that no data can be written.
<urcCauseId>
Indicates whether or not data are available for transfer with AT^SISW.
0
1
2
No data available for writing with AT^SISW.
New data can be written via AT^SISW.
In the case of Socket, FTP download, HTTP: Data transfer has been finished and Internet service can be closed via AT^SISC.
In the case of FTP upload and SMTP: To indicate successful transmission, the URC “^SISW: x,2” is sent after the service was gracefully closed. If the FTP upload or SMTP service is closed immediately the URC will not be sent.
Note
The AT^SISW write command must be terminated only with the ASCII character set with ATS3. The factory default for S3 is #13 (Carriage Return). Do not send any further characters after the S3 end-of-line identifier, until the response "^SISW" is received. This is necessary to avoid that any characters related to the AT command can be interpreted as being part of the data stream to be transferred.

Chapter 11. GPRS Commands
This chapter describes AT Commands that a TE (Terminal Equipment) may use to control the Multi-Tech wireless modem acting as GPRS Mobile Termination (MT). Please use “Using GPRS AT commands (Examples)” as a first guidance.
11.1 AT+CGACT PDP Context Activate or Deactivate
Description: The test command is used for requesting information on the supported PDP context activation states.
The read command returns the current activation states for all the defined PDP contexts.
The write command is used to activate or deactivate the specified PDP context(s). After the command has completed, the MT remains in V.250 command state. If any PDP context is already in the requested state, the state for that context remains unchanged. If the MT is not
GPRS attached when the activation form of the command is executed, the MT first performs a
GPRS attach and then attempts to activate the specified contexts. If no <cid>s are specified the activation/deactivation form of the command activates/deactivates all defined contexts.

Parameter Descriptions:
<state>
Indicates the state of PDP context activation.
0
1 deactivated activated. Default.
<cid>
PDP Context Identifier is a numeric parameter which specifies a particular PDP context definition. The parameter is local to the TE-MT interface and is used in other PDP context related commands.
1...2
Notes:
• ATH will deactivate any PDP context.
• If the MT is in dedicated mode, the write command returns “+CME ERROR: operation temporary not allowed”.
• A maximum of 2 contexts can be activated at the same time, no matter on which interface. Trying to activate more than 2 contexts will cause “+CME ERROR: operation temporary not allowed”. Note that, depending on the provider, the number of activated contexts may be further restricted.
Remember that contexts may be activated implicitly by using the ATD*98# or ATD*99# GPRS compatibility commands without specifying a <cid>.
• If an activated context will be deactivated without using the command AT+CGACT, then the result code “NO
CARRIER” will be issued to indicate the context deactivation. This happens for example if the context deactivation is forced by the network or if deactivation results from a network deregistration with AT+COPS=2.

11.2 AT+CGANS Manual Response to a Network
Request for PDP Context Activation
Description: The write command requests the MT to respond to a network request for GPRS PDP context activation which has been signaled to the TE by the RING or CRING unsolicited result code. The <response> parameter allows the TE to accept or reject the request.
Test Command Syntax: AT+CGANS=?
Response: +CGANS: (list of supported <response>s), (list of supported <L2P>s)
OK
Write Command Syntax: AT+CGANS=[<response>[, <L2P>[, <cid>]]]
Response: CONNECT
NO CARRIER

+CME ERROR
Parameter Descriptions:
<response>
0
1
<L2P>
<cid>
The request is rejected and the MT returns OK to the TE. Default.
Accept and request that the PDP context be activated
A string parameter which indicates the layer 2 protocol to be used (see AT+CGDATA command).
A numeric parameter which specifies a particular PDP context definition (see AT+CGDCONT command).
Note:
If <response> is 1, the following procedure is followed by the MT:
If the <L2P> parameter value is unacceptable to the MT, the MT will return an ERROR or +CME ERROR response. Otherwise, the MT issues the intermediate result code CONNECT and enters V.250 online data state.
A <cid> may be specified for use in the context activation request.
During the PDP startup procedure the MT has the PDP type and the PDP address provided by the network in the
Request PDP context activation message. If this is in conflict with the information provided by a specified <cid>, the command will fail. There will be no conflict, if the PDP type matches exactly and the PDP address given by the context definition for <cid> is empty or matches exactly with the address specified with the network PDP context activation message.
The context will be activated using the values for PDP type and address provided by the network, together with all other information found in the PDP context definition. An APN may or may not be required, depending on the application.
If no <cid> is given or if there is no matching context definition, the MT will attempt to activate the context using the values for PDP type and address provided by the network. The other parameters will be set to their default values
(see AT+CGDCONT).
If activation is successful, data transfer may proceed.
After data transfer is complete, and the layer 2 protocol termination procedure has completed successfully, the
V.250 command state is reentered and the MT returns the final result code OK.
In the event of an erroneous termination or a failure to start up, the V.250 command state is re-entered and the MT returns the final result code NO CARRIER, or if enabled, +CME ERROR. Attach, activate and other errors may be reported. It is also an error to issue the AT+CGANS command when there is no pending network request.
The command may be used in both normal and modem compatibility modes.

Modem compatibility mode. The automatic acceptance of both GPRS and incoming CSD calls is controlled by the ATS0 command. Manual control uses the ATA and ATH commands, respectively, to accept or reject GPRS network requests or incoming CSD calls.
Notes:
• It is allowed to have different AT+CGAUTO settings on different interfaces.
• When the AT+CGAUTO=0 command is received, the MT will not perform a GPRS detach if it is attached.
Subsequently, when the MT announces a network request for PDP context activation by issuing the URC RING or CRING, the TE may manually accept or reject the request by issuing the AT+CGANS command or may simply ignore the network request.
• When the AT+CGAUTO=1 command is received, the MT will attempt to perform a GPRS attach if it is not yet attached. Failure will result in ERROR or, if enabled +CME ERROR being returned to the TE. Subsequently, the
MT announces a network request for PDP context activation by issuing the URC RING to the TE, followed by the intermediate result code CONNECT. The MT then enters V.250 online data state and follows the same procedure as it would after having received a +CGANS=1 with no <L2P> or <cid> values specified.
• If a GPRS attach will be initiated by this command and the MT is not able to attach for more than 385 seconds
(timer T3310 expired), command returns with “ERROR” or “+CME ERROR: unknown”, but MT is still trying to attach and the requested automatic mode <n> is in use.
• If a network request for PDP context activation is answered automatically and if another AT command is issued at the same time on the same interface, then this AT command is not executed. Any response belongs to the automatic context activation procedure. If the AT command which caused the collision was a circuit switched data call, the CONNECT response does not belong to this data call but to the GPRS. This can be detected if
ATX is not set to 0. CS data call will issue CONNECT <text>, GPRS will issue CONNECT only.

Chapter 11 – GPRS Commands
11.5 AT+CGDATA Enter Data State
Description: The test command is used for requesting information on the supported layer 2 protocols to be used between the TE and MT.
The write command causes the MT to perform all actions which are necessary to establish communication between the TE and the network using one or more GPRS PDP types. This may include performing a GPRS attach and one or more PDP context activations. Commands following the AT+CGDATA command in the AT command line will not be processed by the MT.
If no <cid> is given or if there is no matching context definition, the MT will attempt to activate the context with PDP type IP and all other context parameters set to their default values (see
AT+CGDCONT, AT+CGQREQ, AT+CGQMIN).
If the <L2P> parameter is omitted, the layer 2 protocol is unspecified and PPP will be used.
If the write command is successful, the MT issues the intermediate result code CONNECT and enters V.250 online data state.
After data transfer is complete and the layer 2 protocol termination procedure has completed successfully, the command state is reentered and the MT returns the final result code OK.
If the <L2P> parameter value is unacceptable to the MT, the MT returns ERROR or +CME
ERROR.
In the event of erroneous termination or a failure to start up, the command state is reentered and the MT returns NO CARRIER, or if enabled +CME ERROR.
Test Command Syntax: AT+CGDATA=?

Parameter Descriptions:

“PPP“ layer 2 protocol PPP. Default.
<cid>
Parameter specifies a particular PDP context definition. The parameter is local to the TE-MT interface and is used in other PDP context-related commands.
1...2
Notes:
• If the MT is in dedicated mode, write command returns “+CME ERROR: operation temporary not allowed”.
• It is possible to leave the GPRS data mode and enter the command mode by using the V.250 command +++.
By using the command AT+CGDATA again, the data mode is reentered. Which context is used to return to data mode, depends on the supplied parameter <cid>.
If no <cid> is specified, this is equivalent to using the V.250 command ATO, which is usable for GPRS connections too. In this case the first context will be used, which is active and already in data mode since it has been activated.
It is possible to use AT+CGDATA to enter the data mode for a context, which is not yet in data mode since it has been activated. With ATO this is not possible.
11.5.1 Automatic Deactivation of PDP Context During Dial-up PPP
When using the AT+CGDATA write command or ATD*99# or ATD*98# the MT issues the intermediate result code CONNECT and enters V.250ter online data state. In V.250 online data state, first some LCP protocol exchange between MT and TE is performed to set up the PPP link. After successfully establishing the PPP link, the MT performs the PDP context activation procedure if the context is not already activated. As a result, the MT is in a “PDP context activated” state within the PLMN, the PPP link is established on the mobile side and the mobile is ready for IP data transfer.
If the TE wants to close the LCP link the MT may perform an LCP termination request procedure on PPP level.
After this LCP termination procedure the MT deactivates the PDP context automatically and the MT returns to V.250 command mode and issues the final result code NO CARRIER.
During the implicit PDP context deactivation procedure after LCP termination the TE may change into V.250 command state (e.g., by using +++ or by toggling DTR if AT&D is set to 1) before the result NO CARRIER occurs.
In this case the application should not try to deactivate the PDP context by using the commands AT+CGACT or ATH. If DTR is configured to disconnect data connections (AT&D2), then the application should not toggle
DTR during the implicit PDP context deactivation and before “NO CARRIER” is received.

11.17 ATA Manual Response to a Network Request for PDP Context Activation
Description: The V.250 ATA command may be used to accept a network request for a PDP context activation announced by the unsolicited result codes “RING” or “+CRING: GPRS”. The MT responds with CONNECT, enters V.250 online data state and follows the same procedure as it would after having received a AT+CGANS=1 with no <L2P> or <cid> values specified.
If you try to answer a request which is no longer present or which is already answered by another instance, NO CARRIER is returned.
Exec Command Syntax: ATA
Response: CONNECT
CARRIER
11.18 ATD*99# Request GPRS Service
Description: This command causes the MT to perform whatever actions are necessary to establish communication between the TE and the external PDN.
The V.250 ‘D’ (Dial) command causes the MT to enter the V.250 online data state and, with the
TE, to start the specified layer 2 protocol. No further commands may follow on the AT command line. GPRS attachment and PDP context activation procedures may take place prior to or during the PDP startup if they have not already been performed using the AT+CGATT and AT+CGACT commands.
See command examples in Section 11.22, “Using GPRS AT commands (Examples)”.
To confirm acceptance of the command before entering the V.250 online data state command will respond with CONNECT.
When the layer 2 protocol has terminated, either as a result of an orderly shut down of the PDP or an error, the MT enters V.250 command state and returns NO CARRIER (for details refer to
Section 11.5.1, Automatic deactivation of PDP context during dial-up PPP).
Exec Command Syntax: ATD*99[* [<called_address>][* [<L2P>][* [<cid>]]]]#
Response: CONNECT

11.19 ATD*98# Request GPRS IP Service
Description: This command causes the MT to perform whatever actions are necessary to establish communication between the TE and the external PDN.
The V.250 ‘D’ (Dial) command causes the MT to enter the V.250 online data state and, with the
TE, to start the layer 2 protocol.
GPRS attachment and PDP context activation procedures may take place prior to or during the
PDP startup if they have not already been performed using AT+CGATT and AT+CGACT.
To confirm acceptance of the command before entering the V.250 online data state, command will respond with CONNECT.
When the layer 2 protocol has terminated, either as a result of an orderly shut down of the PDP or an error, the MT enters V.250 command state and returns NO CARRIER (for details refer to
Section 11.5.1, Automatic deactivation of PDP context during dial-up PPP).
Exec Command Syntax: ATD*98[* <cid>]#
Response: CONNECT
NO
Parameter Descriptions:
<cid>
Parameter specifies a particular PDP context definition (see AT+CGDCONT command). If no context is specified, an internal context with default properties is used (see AT+CGDCONT, AT+CGQREQ and
AT+CGQMIN).

Notes:
• If the Multi-Tech wireless modem is in dedicated mode, command returns the result code BUSY.
• ATD is used as a standard V.250 AT command, too.
11.20 ATH Manual Rejection of a Network Request for PDP Context Activation
Description: The V.250 ATH command may be used to deactivate all PDP contexts which are active or online on the same interface. This command should not be used to deactivate PDP contexts during the implicit PDP context deactivation procedure which is started automatically after LCP termination or by dropping the DTR line (if AT&D2 is configured). For details refer to Section 11.5.1,
“Automatic deactivation of PDP context during dial-up PPP”.
The ATH command may also be used to reject a network request for PDP context activation announced by the unsolicited result codes “RING: GPRS” or “+CRING: GPRS”.
Exec Command Syntax: ATH
Response: OK
Notes:
• In contrast to GSM 07.07 it is possible to cancel a connection with ATH after a break. This is done for compatibility reasons due to the “dial-up network” drivers of Microsoft Windows.
• ATH is used as a standard V.250 AT command, too.
• If ATH is used to reject a network request for PDP context activation, then other PDP contexts on the same interface which are active or online will not be deactivated.

Chapter 11 – GPRS Commands
11.21 ATS0 Automatic Response to a Network
Request for PDP Context Activation
Description: The V.250 ATS0=<n> (Automatic answer) command may be used to turn off (n=0) and on (n>0) the automatic response to a network request for a PDP context activation.
When the ATS0=<n> (<n> > 0) command is received, the MT will attempt to perform a GPRS attach if not yet attached and if configured to do so (see AT^SCFG, parameter <gs0aa>). Failure will result in ERROR being returned to the TE. Subsequently, the MT will announce a network request for PDP context activation by issuing the URC RING or CRING to the TE, followed by the intermediate result code CONNECT. The MT then enters V.250 online data state and follows the same procedure as it would after having received a AT+CGANS=1 command with no <L2P> or
<cid> values specified.
ATS0=0 does not perform an automatic GPRS detach.
Read Command Syntax: ATS0?
Response: <n>
OK
Write Command Synatx: ATS0=<n>
Response: OK
Parameter Description:
<n>
000 Disables automatic answer mode. Default.
001-255 Enables automatic answering after specified number of rings.
Notes:
• If different settings are used on each interface, and a request for PDP context activation is received, the interface
‘wins’ which is idle and uses the smallest ATS0 value.
• If a network request for PDP context activation is answered automatically and another AT command is issued at the same time on the same interface then this AT command will not be executed. Any response belongs to the automatic context activation procedure. If the AT command which caused the collision was a CS data call, the
CONNECT response does not belong to this data call but to the GPRS. This can be detected if ATX is not set to
0. CS data call will issue CONNECT <text>, GPRS will issue CONNECT only.
• A network request for PDP context activation has a maximum duration of approximately 40 seconds (for details see GSM 04.08). A RING/CRING URC is issued every 5 seconds, so setting parameter <n> to values greater than 7 will not allow a successful context activation and is not recommended.
• The automatic GPRS attach will not be performed on recalling a stored user profile with ATZ or on powerup, if a n > 0 setting was stored in the user profile with AT&W.
• If the automatic GPRS attach fails (e.g., the network rejects the attach request), the write command returns error, though the new value takes effect. This is necessary because ATS0 is used for circuit switched calls too.
• ATS0 write command is PIN protected.

Chapter 11 – GPRS Commands
11.22 Using GPRS AT Commands (Examples)
Example 1 – Defining and Using a Context Definition ID (CID):
Every time a CID is used as a parameter for a GPRS command the CID has to be defined before by using the
AT+CGDCONT command. To get the parameter of a CID use the AT+CGDCONT read option. If the response of
‘AT+CGDCONT?’ is OK only, there is no CID defined.
AT+CGDCONT?
OK There is no CID defined
All parameters of the CID are initiated by NULL or not present values, and the CID itself is set to be undefined.
To define a CID use the AT+CGDCONT command with at least one CID parameter. At the moment the mobile supports CID 1 and CID 2 by using the AT+CGDCONT command.
Define CID 1 and set the PDP type to IP, access point name and IP address are not set:
AT+CGDCONT=1,”IP”
OK
Define CID 2 and sets PDP type, APN and IP addr:
A following read command will respond:
AT+CGDCONT=2,”IP”, “internet.t-d1.gprs”, 111.222.123.234
OK
AT+CGDCONT?
+CGDCONT:1,”IP”,””,””,0,0
+CGDCONT:2,”IP”,”internet.t-d1.gprs”,111.222.123.234
OK
Set the CID 1 to be undefined:
A following read command will respond:
AT+CGDCONT=1
OK
AT+CGDCONT?
+CGDCONT:2,”IP”,”internet.t-d1.gprs”,111.222.123.234
OK
Example 2 – Quality of Service (QoS) is a special CID parameter that consists of several parameters itself:
• the precedence class
• the delay class
• the reliability class
• the peak throughput class
• the mean throughput class
It is also divided in “requested QoS” and “minimum acceptable QoS”.
All parameters of the QoS are initiated by default to the “network subscribed value (= 0)” but the QoS itself is set to be undefined. To define a QoS use the AT+CGQREQ or AT+CGQMIN command.
Overwrite the precedence class of QoS of CID 1 and set the QoS of CID 1 to be present:
A following read command will respond:
AT+CGQREQ=1,2
OK
AT+CGQREQ?
+CGQREQ: 1,2,0,0,0,0
OK
All QoS values of CID 1 are set to network subscribed now, except precedence class which is set to 2. Now set the QoS of CID 1 to not present:
AT+CGQREQ=1
OK
Once defined, the CID it can be activated. To activate CID 2 use:
AT+CGACT=1,2
OK
If the CID is already active, the mobile responds OK at once.
If no CID and no STATE is given, all defined CIDs will be activated by:
AT+CGACT=
OK
If no CID is defined the mobile responds +CME ERROR: invalid index.
Remark: If the mobile is NOT attached by AT+CGATT=1 before activating, the attach is automatically done by the AT+CGACT command.
After defining and activating a CID it may be used to get online by:
AT+CGDATA=”PPP”,1
CONNECT The mobile is connected using the parameters of CID 1.
Multi-Tech Systems, Inc. AT Commands for EDGE Modems (S000371B) 166
Chapter 11 – GPRS Commands
AT+CGDATA=
CONNECT The mobile is connected using default parameters
(<L2P>=”PPP” and <cid> as described for command
AT+CGDATA).
The mobile supports Layer 2 Protocol (L2P) PPP only.
Remark: If the mobile is NOT attached by AT+CGATT=1 and the CID is NOT activated before connecting, attaching and activating is automatically done by the AT+CGDATA command.
Some providers (e.g., Vodafone or E-Plus) require to use an APN to establish a GPRS connection. So if you use the Microsoft Windows Dial-Up Network and ATD*9... to connect to GPRS you must provide the context definition as part of the modem definition (Modem properties/Connection/Advanced.../Extra settings). As an alternative, you can define and activate the context in a terminal program (e.g., Microsoft Hyperterminal) and then use the Dial-Up Network to send only the ATD command.
11.23 Using the GPRS Dial Command ATD (Example)
In addition to the GPRS AT commands you can use the “D” command to dial into to the GPRS network.
There are two GPRS Service Codes for the ATD command: Values 98 and 99.
Examples:
ATD*99#
CONNECT ‘
ATD*99*123.124.125.126*PPP*1#
CONNECT
Establish a connection by service code 99.
Establish a connection by service code 99, IP address 123 and L2P = PPP and using CID 1.
The CID has to be defined by AT+CGDCONT.
ATD*99**PPP#
CONNECT
ATD*99***1#
CONNECT
ATD*99**PPP*1#
CONNECT
Establish a connection by service code 99 and L2P = PPP.
Establish a connection by service code 99 and using CID 1.
Establish a connection by service code 99 and L2P = PPP and using CID 1. The
CID has to be defined by AT+CGDCONT.

<length>
Message Length
Integer type value indicating in the text mode (AT+CMGF=1) the length of the message body <data> (or
<cdata>) in characters; or in PDU mode (AT+CMGF=0), the length of the actual TP data unit in octets (i.e., the
RP layer SMSC address octets are not counted in the length) In text mode, the maximum length of an SMS depends on the used coding scheme: It is 160 characters if the 7 bit GSM coding scheme is used, and 140 characters according to the 8 bit GSM coding scheme.
If the SMS message format is “text mode” (AT+CMGF=1) and the character set is set to “UCS2” with AT+CSCS and the SMS is also coded as “UCS2” (see <dcs> of AT+CSMP), then the length is in octets instead of characters.
For concatenated SMS messages the maximum length will be reduced by the length of the user data header with respect to <ieia> (6 bytes for <ieia>=8 and 7 bytes for <ieia>=16). In the case of 8-bit data, the maximum length of the short message field is: 140 octets - (6 or 7) = 134 or 133. In the case of GSM 7 bit default alphabet data, the maximum length of the short message is (140 - (6 or 7))*8/7 = 153 or 152 characters. In the case of 16 bit
UC2 data, the maximum length of the short message is: (140 - (6 or 7))/2)= 67 or 66 characters.
<max>
Maximum number of all segments to be concatenated into one SMS, beginning with 1.
<max>=0 means: ignore the value. This will result in a non-concatenated SMS.

13.7 AT+CMGS Send SMS Message
Description: The write command transmits a short message from TE to network (SMS-SUBMIT).
After invoking the write command, wait for the prompt “>”, and then start to write the message. To send the message simply enter <CTRL-Z>. After the prompt, a timer will be started to observe the input.
To abort sending use <ESC>. Abortion is acknowledged with “OK”, though the message will not be sent.
The message reference <mr> is returned to the TE on successful message delivery. The value can be used to identify the message in a delivery status report provided as an unsolicited result code.
Test Command Syntax: AT+CMGS=?
Response: OK
Write Command Syntax: If text mode (see AT+CMGF=1)
Response:
AT+CMGS=<da>[, <toda>]<CR> Text can be entered. <CTRL-Z>/<ESC>
+CMGS: <mr>[, <scts>]
OK
If sending fails see notes below.
Write Command Syntax: If PDU mode (see AT+CMGF=0)
Response:
AT+CMGS=<length><CR> PDU can be entered. <CTRL-Z>/<ESC>
+CMGS: <mr>[, <ackpdu>]
OK
If sending fails see notes below.
Notes:
• If sending fails, for example, if a message is too long, the result code depends on the current setting of the
AT^SM20 command:
If the AT^SM20 <CmgwMode> equals 1 (factory default) any failure to send a message is responded with “OK”.
Users should be aware, that despite the “OK” response, the message will not be sent to the subscriber.
If the AT^SM20 <CmgwMode> equals 0 any failure to send a message is responded with “ERROR”.
• If sending fails due to timeout, then AT^SM20 <CmgwMode>=1 causes “+CMS ERROR: Unknown error” to be returned; AT^SM20 <CmgwMode>=0 causes “+CMS ERROR: timer expired” to be returned.
• Note that some providers do not recognize an @ symbol used in a short message. A widely used alternative is typing “*” as defined in GSM 03.40 (GPP TS 23.40).
• All characters entered behind the prompt “>” will be recognized as GSM characters. For example, “Backspace”
(ASCII character 8) does not delete a character, but will be inserted into the short message as an additional physical character. As a result, the character you wanted to delete still appears in the text, plus the GSM code equivalent of the Backspace key.
• In text mode, the maximum length of a short message depends on the used coding scheme: It is 160 characters if the 7 bit GSM coding scheme is used, and 140 characters according to the 8 bit GSM coding scheme.
• At baudrates lower than 19200 it is recommended to use the line termination character only (refer to <n> of
ATS3, default <CR>) before entering text or PDU. Use of the line termination character followed by the response formatting character (see <n> of ATS4, default <LF>) can cause problems.

13.8 AT+CMGW Write Short Messages to Memory
Description: The execute and write commands transmit a short message (either SMS-DELIVER or
SMS-SUBMIT) from TE to memory storage <mem2>. Memory location <index> of the stored message is returned. Message status will be set to ‘stored unsent’ unless otherwise given in parameter <stat>.
After invoking the execute or write command wait for the prompt “>” and then start to write the message. To save the message simply enter <CTRL-Z>. After the prompt a timer will be started to observe the input.
To abort writing use <ESC>. Abortion is acknowledged with “OK”, though the message will not be saved.

If the AT^SM20 <CmgwMode> equals 0 any failure to write a message is responded with “ERROR”.
If writing fails due to timeout, then AT^SM20 <CmgwMode>=1 causes “+CMS ERROR: Unknown error” to be returned; AT^SM20 <CmgwMode>=0 causes “+CMS ERROR: timer expired” to be returned.
• Note that some providers do not recognize an @ symbol used in a short message. A widely used alternative is typing “*” as defined in GSM 03.40 (GPP TS 23.40).
• For baudrates lower than 19200 it is recommended to use the line termination character only (refer to ATS3=
<n>, default <CR>) before entering the text or PDU. Use of the line termination character followed by the response formating character (see ATS4= <n>, default <LF>) may cause problems.
• SMS-COMMANDs and SMS-STATUS-REPORTs cannot be stored in text mode.
• All characters entered behind the “>” prompt will be recognized as GSM characters. For example, “Backspace”
(ASCII character 8) does not delete a character, but will be inserted into the short message as an additional physical character. As a result, the character you wanted to delete still appears in the text, plus the GSM code equivalent of the Backspace key.
• In text mode, the maximum length of a short message depends on the used coding scheme: It is 160 characters if the 7 bit GSM coding scheme is used, and 140 characters according to the 8 bit GSM coding scheme.
• The length of 8-bit data coded short messages has to be greater than 0.

13.11 AT+CNMI New Short Message Indication
Description: The write command selects the procedure how the receipt of new short messages from the network is indicated to the TE when TE is active; e.g., the DTR signal is ON. If TE is inactive (e.g., DTR signal is OFF), message receiving should be done as specified in GSM
03.38. If the DTR signal is not available or the state of the signal is ignored (V.250 command AT&D), reliable message transfer can be assured by using AT+CNMA acknowledgment procedure.
The rules <mt>=2 and <mt>=3 for storing received messages are possible only if phase
2+ compatibility is activated with AT+CSMS=1. The parameter <ds>=1 is only available in phase 2+.

Discard indication and reject new received message unsolicited result codes when TA-TE link is reserved (e.g., in on-line data mode). Otherwise, forward them directly to the TE.
Buffer unsolicited result codes in the TA when TA-TE link is reserved (e.g., in on-line data mode) and flush them to the TE after reservation. Otherwise, forward them directly to the TE.
Forward unsolicited result codes directly to the TE. TA-TE link specific in-band technique used to embed result codes and data when TA is in on-line data mode.
Rules for storing received short messages depend on the relevant data coding method (refer to
GSM 03.38), preferred memory storage (AT+CPMS) setting and this value.
Note: If AT command interface is acting as the only display device, the ME must support storage of class 0 messages and messages in the message waiting indication group (discard message)
[0](&F) No SMS-DELIVER indications are routed to the TE.
If SMS-DELIVER is stored in ME/TA, indication of the memory location is routed to the TE using unsolicited result code:
SMS-DELIVERs, except class 2 messages and messages in the message waiting indication group (store message) are routed directly to the TE using unsolicited result code:

Indicates that new SMS status report has been received
Notes:
• Each time a short message or Cell Broadcast Message is received, the Ring Line goes Logic “1” for one second.
• Parameters <mt>=2,3 and <ds>=1 are only available with GSM phase 2+ (see AT+CSMS=1). Incoming SMs or
Status Reports have to be acknowledged with AT+CNMA=0 when using these phase 2+ parameters.
• Requirements specific to Multiplex mode:
In multiplex mode (AT+CMUX=0) only one channel can use a phase 2+ parameter. The parameter for <mt> and
<ds> on the other channels have to be set to zero. If either a SM or a Status Report is not acknowledged, all
AT+CNMI parameter in all channels will be set to zero.
• If the ME operates on different instances (MUX channels 1, 2, 3 or ASC0), avoid different settings for routing and indicating short messages. For example, if messages shall be routed directly to one instance of the TE (set with
AT+CNMI, AT^SSDA), it is not possible to activate the presentation of URCs with AT+CMER or AT+CNMI on another instance. Any attempt to activate settings that conflict with existing settings on another interface, will result in CME ERROR, or accordingly CMS ERROR.
• Handling of Class 0 short messages:
If the host application is provided with a display and AT^SSDA=1 has been set Class 0 short messages can be displayed immediately.
If the host application does not include a display, ME handles Class 0 short messages as though there was no message class; i.e., it will ignore bits 0 and 1 in the <dcs> and normal rules for exceeded memory capacity shall apply. This approach is compliant with GSM 03.38 .
• The parameters <ra> and <tora> will only be displayed if <ra> of the AT^SSCONF command is set to 1.
• If either a SM or a Status Report is not acknowledged, all AT+CNMI parameter in all channels will be set to zero.

Notes:
• The Mobile Equipment storage “ME” offers space for 25 short messages, see <mem1>.
• “MT” is the sum of “ME” (= 25 locations) and “SM” (capacity varies with SIM card). The indices <index> of the
“MT” storage are dependent on the order selected with AT^SSMSS
• The <mem1>, <mem2> and <mem3> parameter will be stored in non-volatile memory.
• The user should be aware that the setting “MT” involves “ME” and “SM”, with “ME” being filled up first. If the “ME” storage is full, the Multi-Tech wireless modem will proceed with the “SM” storage.
Incoming Class 1 short messages (ME specific) will be preferably stored to “ME” and may be transferred to the
“SM” storage if “ME” is used up.
Incoming Class 2 messages (SIM specific) will be stored to the SIM card only, no matter whether or not there is free “ME” space. As a result, the ^SMGO: 2 indication (see AT^SMGO) may be presented without prior indication of ^SMGO: 1. For more information regarding SIM and ME specific message classes refer to <dcs> and the following specifications: GSM 03.38 and 3GPP TS23038.
• Multiplexer: In Multiplex mode or when the two physical serial interfaces are connected, the parameter <mem3> will be the same on all instances, but the setting of <mem1> and <mem2> may vary on each channel / interface.
As a result, changes on parameters <mem1> and/or <mem2> before activating the multiplexer or different values for other instances can result in undesirable behavior; for example, different output for AT+CMGL.
• While <mem3> equals “SM” and <mem1> equals “ME” it is possible that, after deleting short messages from
“ME”, the freed space on “ME” is reclaimed for new incoming short messages, when there is no space left on the
“SM” storage. As it is often the clients concern to have received short messages stored only to the SIM card, inconsistent settings should be generally avoided. This can be achieved simply by using the same parameter for all memory indices.
• 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.
• The indexes <index> of the storage are dependent on the order selected with AT^SSMSS.

13.20 AT^SCMS Send Concatenated Short
Messages
Description: Sending a concatenated message is similar to sending a “normal” message, except that each segment of the concatenated message must be identified by the additional parameters <seq>, <ieia> and <ref>. To send all segments of the message one by one, the AT^SCMS write command must be executed for each segment.
The write command transmits one segment of a concatenated short message from TE to network (SMS-SUBMIT). After invoking the write command wait for the prompt “>” and then start to write the message. To send the message simply enter <CTRL-Z>. After the prompt a timer will be started to observe the input.
To abort sending use <ESC>. Abortion is acknowledged with “OK”, though the message will not be sent.
The message reference <mr> is returned to the TE on successful message delivery. The value can be used to identify the message in a delivery status report provided as an unsolicited result code.

Chapter 14 – SIM-Related Commands
Chapter 14. SIM-Related Commands
The AT commands described in this chapter are related to the Subscriber Identity Module (SIM) connected to the
Multi-Tech wireless modem.
If using data from the SIM please bear in mind that the content of all Elementary Files is subject to change at any moment!
This is true because the network can change the SIM’s data in the background via the SIM Application Toolkit (SAT) procedure “Data download to SIM”. For a detailed description please refer to GSM 11.14.
To get informed that changing Elementary Files has taken place the TA needs to hook to the SAT Proactive
Command “REFRESH”. To achieve this, the AT command interface of SAT, i.e., Remote-SAT, needs to be activated.
An overview is given at Chapter 15, SIM Application Toolkit (SAT) Commands, additional information is available with the document “Remote-SAT User Guide” .
14.1 AT+CRSM Restricted SIM Access
Description: AT+CRSM offers easy access of the Elementary Files on the SIM. Access to the SIM database is restricted to the commands which are listed at <command>. However, additional SIM commands are available via AT^SXSM.
All parameters of AT+CRSM are used as specified by GSM 11.11 [21]. The Multi-Tech wireless modem handles internally all required SIM interface locking and file selection routines.
As response to the command, the Multi-Tech wireless modem sends the actual SIM information parameters and response data. Error result code “+CME ERROR” may be returned if the command cannot be passed to the SIM; e.g., if the SIM is not inserted.
However, failure in the execution of the command in the SIM is reported in <sw1> and
<sw2> parameters.
AT+CRSM requires PIN authentication. However, using <command> “READ BINARY” and <command> “READ RECORD” is possible before PIN authentication and if the SIM is blocked (state after three failed PIN authentication attempts) to access the contents of the following Elementary Files:
EF Symbol
EF ICCID

Chapter 15 – SIM Application Toolkit (SAT) Commands
Chapter 15. SIM Application Toolkit
(SAT) Commands
This chapter offers a brief reference of commands and responses related to the Multi-Tech wireless modem’s SIM
Application Toolkit (SAT) implementation.
ETSI specification GSM 11.14 defines SAT in detail. SAT allows for the execution of applications provided by a
Subsciber Identity Module (SIM). Usually, SIM cards are used for storing GSM network provider and user specific data; e.g., phonebook entries and Short Messages (SMS). However, a SIM card may also hold a SIM Application.
Since the Multi-Tech wireless modem has SAT functionality, it is able to execute the commands issued by applications implemented on a network provider specific SIM card.
Two groups of commands are used between the ME and the SIM Application:
• Proactive Commands are issued to the Multi-Tech wireless modem’s SAT from the SIM Application, such as
“DISPLAY TEXT”.
• Envelope Commands are responded to the SIM Application from the Multi-Tech wireless modem, such as
“MENU SELECTION”.
15.1 AT^SSTA SAT Interface Activation
Description: SAT commands that are not using the AT interface (non MMI related SAT commands; e.g., PROVIDE LOCAL INFORMATION) can be executed without activating Remote-SAT.
The read command requests the current operating status and the used alphabet of the
Remote-SAT interface.
write command activates the AT command interface of the SIM Application Toolkit in the Multi-Tech wireless modem and needs to be issued after every power on. However, removing and inserting the SIM does not affect the activation status.

Chapter 15 – SIM Application Toolkit (SAT) Commands
15.2 ^SSTN SAT Notification
Unsolicited Result Codes:
URC 1
Proactive Command notification
^SSTN: <cmdType>
Every time the SIM Application issues a Proactive Command, via the ME, the TA will receive a notification.
This indicates the type of Proactive Command issued.
AT^SSTGI must then be used by the TA to request the parameters of the Proactive Command from the ME.
Upon receiving the ^SSTGI response from the ME, the TA must send AT^SSTR to confirm the execution of the
Proactive Command and provide any required user response; e.g., a selected menu item.
URC 2
Terminate Proactive Command notification
^SSTN: <cmdTerminateValue>
When the SIM application has issued a Proactive Command to the ME, it is possible that this command will be terminated later. URC “^SSTN” is sent with a different Proactive Command type number (added terminate offset
100) to indicate the termination of the specified command.
The state changes to idle. Therefore, the TA should avoid sending any further commands related to the terminated Proactive Command; e.g., AT^SSTGI or AT^SSTR.
URC 3
Notification that SIM Application has returned to main menu
^SSTN: 254
Notification to the TA when the SIM Application has finished a command cycle and again enters its main menu, which was transferred with an URC “^SSTN: 37” (SET UP MENU) at start up.
This URC should be used to open this menu on the screen.
The TA does not need to respond directly; i.e., AT^SSTR is not required.
URC 4
SIM reset notification
^SSTN: 255
Notification to the TA if a Proactive Command “REFRESH - SIM Reset” has been issued by the SIM Application, please refer to AT^SSTGI.
This URC should be used to set the TAs application to its initial state since the SIM Application will start from the beginning, too.
The TA does not need to respond directly; i.e., related AT^SSTGI and AT^SSTR are neither required nor allowed.
Since the ME is still busy on SIM access the ME may respond with “+CME ERROR: SIM blocked” or “+CME
ERROR: SIM busy” on following PIN required AT Commands for a while. Then TA shall retry until the ME responds with “OK”. The time needed for this process depends on the SIM and may take more than 10 seconds.
Parameter Description:
<cmdType>
Proactive Command number
<cmdTerminateValue>
Defined as <cmdType> + terminate offset. The terminate offset equals 100.

Chapter 16. Phonebook Commands
The AT commands described in this chapter allow the external application to access the phonebooks located in the
Multi-Tech wireless modem’s memory or on the attached Subscriber Identity Module (SIM).
16.1 Sort Order for Phonebooks
Due to the support of UCS2 for the <text> part of phonebook entries, the sort order for phonebook records follows the algorithm published as Unicode Technical Standard #10, “Unicode Collation Algorithm”.
A memory-optimized version of the proposed collation tables “[AllKeys]” from Unicode Technical Standard #10 is used in order to determine collation weights for Code points between 0000 and 06FF, and composed keys are used for Code points from ranges 0700 to 33FF, A000 to D7FF and E000 to FFFD. Code Points not referenced in these tables will be assigned a default collation weight with their unicode value as level 1 weight. Decomposition is not supported.
Phonebook entries whose names contain only characters from the GSM07.07 default alphabet are converted internally into their UCS2 equivalents in order to achieve consistent sorting results.
For the user, this means that:
• Punctuation marks and other non-alphabetical characters from the common latin-based character sets, and from the standard GSM character set, will be sorted before any alphabetical characters. The ordering in which these marks appear as compared to other non-alphabetical characters from the same group is determined by their collation weights and does not reflect their code values in the UCS2 or GSM alphabet tables above.
Please refer to www.unicode.org
for detail.
• Alphabetical characters from the common latin-based character sets, and from the standard GSM character set, will be sorted according to their underlying base characters, plus the collation weights of their accent signs.
• Only collation levels 1 and 2 are regarded, so sorting is not case-sensitive.
Example: the European letters “Å” (GSM 0EH, UCS2 00C5h), “æ” (GSM 1DH, UCS2 00E6h), “ç” (GSM09h,
UCS2 00E7h), “a” (GSM 61H, UCS2 0061h ) and “b” (GSM 62H, UCS2 0062h) will be sorted in order “a”, “Å”,
“æ” “b”,”ç” although their numerical values in GSM and UCS2 suggest a different ordering.

129 Otherwise
<text>
Text assigned to a phone number. The maximum length for this parameter is given with test command response parameter <tlength>. If using an ASCII terminal characters which are coded differently in ASCII and GSM have to be entered via escape sequences as described in Section 1.5, Supported character sets.
<maxloc>
Maximum location number for the currently selected storage. For phonebooks located on the SIM this value depends on the SIM card type.
<nlength>
Maximum length of phone number for “normal” locations. Depending on the storage a limited number of locations with extended memory is available per phonebook. These locations allow storing numbers with twice the standard length, which is 2*<nlength> digits for normal numbers, but only <nlength> digits for numbers saved with <type>=209.
<tlength>
Maximum length of <text> assigned to the telephone number. The value indicated by the test command is given in octets. If <text> is given as GSM characters each character corresponds to one octet. If the <text> string is given in UCS2, the maximum number of characters depends on the coding scheme used for the alpha field of the SIM according to GSM 11.11, Annex B. In the worst case the number of UCS2 characters is at least one less than half the number of GSM characters.
Note: 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.

When using an ASCII terminal, characters which are coded differently in ASCII and GSM have to be entered via escape sequences as described in Section 1.5, Supported character sets.
<maxloc>
Maximum number of locations supported by the currently selected storage. For phonebooks located on SIM, this value varies depending on the SIM card. See AT+CPBS for typical values.
<nlength>
Maximum length of phone number for “normal” locations. Depending on the storage, a limited number of locations with extended memory is available per phonebook. These locations allow storing numbers with twice the standard length, which is 2*<nlength> digits for normal numbers, but only <nlength> digits for numbers saved with parameter <type>= 209. If all extended locations of the selected phonebook are used up, then any attempt to write a number which requires extended memory will be denied with CME ERROR 260: INVALID DIAL
STRING.

<tlength>
Maximum length of <text> assigned to the telephone number. The value indicated by the test command is given in octets. If the <text> string is given in GSM characters, each character corresponds to one octet. If the <text> string is given in UCS2, the maximum number of characters depends on the coding scheme used for the alpha field of the SIM. In the worst case the number of UCS2 characters is at least one less than half the number of
GSM characters.
For a detailed description please refer to GSM 11.11, Annex B.

16.9 AT^SPBG Display Phonebook Entries in
Alphabetical Order
Description: AT^SPBG sorts the entries of the current phonebook in alphabetical order by name (the first six characters matter). The sort order is described in Section 16.1, Sort Order for Phonebooks.
There are two ways to use AT^SPBG:
• If the optional parameter <RealLocReq> equals 0 or is omitted, the sorted entries will be sequentially numbered. As these numbers are not identical with the location numbers stored in the various phonebooks, AT^SPBG can be used for reading only. For example, it helps you find entries starting with matching characters. Do not use the serial numbers to dial out or modify entries.
• If parameter <RealLocReq>=1 is given by the write command, the response parameter
<location> additionally appended to each entry indicates the actual location number. This number can be used for editing with AT+CPBW or dialing with ATD><mem><n>. The first index number of each entry is only the serial number of the sorted list.
Before using the write command, it is recommended to query the number of records currently stored in the active phonebook (refer to test command <used>). The test command also includes the <nlength> and <tlength>. Note that if SIM storage is selected, the length may not be available. If storage does not offer format information, the format list shows empty parentheses.
Test Command Syntax: AT^SPBG=?
Response: ^SPBG: (1-<used>), <nlength>, <tlength>
OK
ERROR
ERROR
Write Command Syntax: AT^SPBG=<index1>[, <index2>][, <RealLocReq>]

OK
ERROR
ERROR
Parameter Description:
<index1>
First index number in the sorted list where reading starts. See the test command response for supported range.
If <index 1> exceeds the upper bound <used>, “+CME ERROR: “invalid index” will be returned.
<index2>
Last index number in the sorted list where to stop reading. See the test command response for supported range.
If <index2> is not given via write command, only the entry located at <index1> will be displayed.
If both <index1> and <index2> are in the range indicated by the test command parameter <used>, the list of entries will be output and terminated with OK.
If <index2> exceeds the range indicated by the test command parameter <used>, the list of entries will be output but terminated with a “+CME ERROR: “invalid index”.
<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 each entry.
<number>
String type phone number in format specified by <type>.
The number parameter may be an empty string.
<type>
Type of address octet that defines the type of number (ton) and the numbering plan identification (npi) used.
Please consider that for types other than 129 or 145 dialing from phonebook with ATD><mem><n> is, depending on the network, not always possible (refer to GSM 04.08 subclause 10.5.4.7 for details). See AT+CPBW <type>.

16.10 AT^SPBS Step Through the Selected
Phonebook Alphabetically
Description: AT^SPBS can be used to scroll sequentially through the active phonebook records in alphabetical order by name. Three entries will be displayed at a time.
Every time the write command is executed, 3 rows of phonebook records are returned. Each triplet overlaps with the next one. The actual index depends on parameter <value>. This parameter determines whether the index will be increased or decreased. If the index in one output line reaches the last index in the alphabetical list, the next output line will display the first list entry. After the last record of the phonebook has been reached (see parameter AT^SPBG
<used>), the <internal-counter> switches over to the first.
There are two ways to use AT^SPBS:
• If the optional parameter <RealLocReq> is omitted or (0) the sorted entries will be sequentially numbered. As these numbers are not identical with the location numbers stored in the various phonebooks AT^SPBS can be used for reading only. For example, it helps you find entries starting with matching characters. Do not use the serial numbers to dial out or modify entries.
• If parameter <RealLocReq>=1 is given by the write command, the response parameter
<location> additionally appended to each entry indicates the actual location number. This number can be used for editing with AT+CPBW or dialing with ATD><mem><n>. The first index number of each entry is only the serial number of the sorted list.

AT^SNFO command.
• As an alternative to AT+CLVL, you can use AT^SNFO and AT^SNFV. The parameter <level> is identical with
<outStep> used by both commands.
• Any change to <level> (or <outStep>) takes effect in audio modes 2 to 6. That is, when you change <level> (or
<outStep>) and then select another mode with AT^SNFS, the same step will be applied.
The only exception is audio mode 1 which is fixed to <level>=4 (or accordingly <outStep>=4).

Test Command Syntax: AT^SNFD=?
Response: OK
Exec Command Syntax: AT^SNFD
Response: OK
Note:
Remember that the factory set audio mode 1 is fixed to <outStep>=4. Consequently, AT^SNFD restores
<audMode> together with <outStep>=4, but does not affect the values of <outStep> currently selected in audio modes 2 - 6. This means, if <audMode>=1, the read commands AT^SNFO, AT^SNFV and AT+CLVL will always deliver <outStep>=4. In all other modes the <outStep> value is retained until explicitly changed.
17.11 AT^SNFI Set Microphone Path Parameters

Formula to calculate how much of the original microphone signal is added to the earpiece signal:
Sidetone gain in dB = 20 * log (sideTone / 32768).
0...32767
Notes:
• <outCalibrate> specifies the amount of volume of each <outStep>. The range of each <outCalibrate> is up to
65535, but will be suppressed to 32767. A value above <outCalibrate>= 65535 will cause an error.
• The range of <sideTone> is up to 65535, but will be suppressed to 32767. A value above <sideTone>=65535 will cause an error.
• Any change to <outStep> takes effect in audio modes 2 to 6. That is, when you change <outStep> and then select another mode with AT^SNFS, the same step will be applied. Nevertheless, the sound quality and the amount of volume are not necessarily the same, since all remaining audio parameters can use different values in either mode.
• Audio mode 1 is fixed to <outStep>=4. In this mode, any attempt to change <outStep> or other parameters returns an error.
• The value of <outStep> is stored non-volatile when the ME is powered down with AT^SMSO or reset with
AT+CFUN=x,1. Any other parameters changed with AT^SNFO need to be saved with AT^SNFW for use after restart. See also AT^SNFD for details on restoring factory defaults.
• The values of <outStep> can also be changed with AT^SNFV and AT+CLVL.
• CAUTION! When you adjust audio parameters avoid exceeding the maximum allowed level. Bear in mind that exposure to excessive levels of noise can cause physical damage to users!

Audio mode 3: Customer specific mode for a mono-headset.
Audio mode 4: Customer specific mode for a user handset.
Audio mode 5: Customer specific mode.
Audio mode 6: Customer specific mode.
• The write command can be used during a voice call to switch back and forth between different modes. This allows the user, for example, to switch handsfree operation (speakerphone) on and off.
• <outStep> is a global setting. This means that when another audio mode is selected during a call, the value of
<outStep> does not change. This is also true for mute operation, which can be set with AT^SNFM or
AT+CMUT: If the microphone is muted and the user selects another audio mode during the call, then the microphone remains muted until explicitly changed. Exception: In audio mode 1 <outStep>=4 is fix.
• For use after restart of the module, you are advised to store the selected mode to the audio profile saved with
AT^SNFW. Otherwise, audio mode 1 will be active each time the module is powered up.

17.16 AT^SNFTTY Signal TTY/CTM Audio Mode
Capability
Description: The Multi-Tech wireless modem offers basic support for equipment using the CTM standard
(Cellular Text Telephone Modems). The benefit of CTM is that text characters typed on a TTY device (Text Telephone Type-writer) can be transformed into special audio burst signals for reliable transmission via the existing speech channels of a cellular phone system.
If CTM mode is activated, the ME will set the necessary bearer capability bit on outgoing (mobile originated) calls and incoming calls with this bearer capability bit set are accepted. The TE needs to decode the special audio burst signals.
If CTM mode is disabled, the ME will clear the bearer capability bit on mobile originated calls and incoming calls with the bearer capability bit set are rejected because the Multi-Tech wireless modem expects that CTM coded speech data cannot be decoded by the TE.
Designed to set the module’s speech system into CTM mode, the AT^SNFTTY command allows a CTM device to be connected to one of the three audio interfaces of the Multi-Tech wireless modem. Traditional TTY devices that do not incorporate CTM functionality can be connected through an external TTY-to-CTM adapter.
Related documents: Refer to the relevant standards, such as 3GPP TS 26.226 (ETSI TS 126
226) and 3GPP TS 23.228 (ETSI TS 123 226). 3GPP documentation can be retrieved, for example, from http://www.3gpp.org/specs/specs.htm. Application Note 22 “Using TTY/CTM equipment” supplies information needed to connect TTY/CTM equipment to the Multi-Tech wireless modem.
Requirements for using TTY/CTM features:
• TTY/CTM functionality requires audio mode 5 or 6 with all audio parameters set to their factory default.
To do so, first enter the AT^SNFS command to select audio mode 5, then use AT^SNFI and AT^SNFO to restore the default values. Alternatively, factory defaults of all audio parameters in audio modes 2 - 6 can easily be set with AT^SNFD.
• Depending on which audio interface the CTM device is connected to select the according settings via AT^SAIC.

Description: The read command returns the current <type> and current <volume>. It can be used while test playback is off or on. In the latter case, see execute command for details.
AT^SRTC audio output currently selected with AT^SNFS. To deactivate test playback use AT^SRTC again.
During test playback, you can enter the write command to select another melody and adjust the volume. Also, you can enter the read command to check the type and volume of the current ring tone and to view the status of playback (on / off). The test ringing signal cannot be activated when an MTC is ringing (ERROR).
Selecting <volume>=0 during the test, immediately stops playback. After this, ring tones will be muted until you change <volume> using the write command. changed no matter whether or not the ME is ringing. The selected type and volume are saved in the non-volatile Flash memory and, thus, are retained after Power Down. An exception is
<type>=0, that can be entered to quickly mute the tone or melody currently played to indicate an event. <type>=0 only stops immediately the audible ring tone, but does not terminate the URC that indicates the event (for example RING). No permanent settings are changed or saved.

To activate ring tones for the very first time, first enter the write command and simply change the volume. After applying a firmware update the volume and type selected before the firmware update will be preserved.
• The test ringing signal cannot be activated while an MTC is ringing (ERROR).
• If an MTC arrives during test playback, test ringing will be deactivated and “normal” ringing reactivated (RING).
Likewise, an MOC will also stop test ringing.
• If no optional parameter is entered, the old value will be kept.

<time>
Format is “yy/mm/dd,hh:mm:ss”, where the characters indicate the two last digits of the year, followed by month, day, hour, minutes, seconds; for example 6
Factory default is “02/01/01,00:00:00” th

Notes:
• <time> is retained if the device enters the Power Down mode via AT^SMSO.
• <time> will be reset to its factory default if power is totally disconnected. In this case, the clock starts with
<time>= “02/01/01,00:00:00” upon next power-up.
• Each time the Multi-Tech wireless modem is restarted it takes 2s to re-initialize the RTC and to update the current time. Therefore, it is recommended to wait 2s before using the commands AT+CCLK and AT+CALA
(for example 2s after ^SYSSTART has been output).

18.2
AT+CALA Set Alarm Time
Description: The write command sets an alarm time in the ME or clears a programmed alarm. When the alarm time is reached and the alarm is executed, the ME returns an Unsolicited Result Code
(URC) and the alarm time is reset to “00/01/01,00:00:00”.
The alarm can adopt two functions, depending on whether or not you switch the GSM engine off after setting the alarm:
• Reminder message: You can use the alarm function to generate reminder messages. For this purpose, set the alarm as described below and do not switch off or power down the
ME. When executed, the message comes as an Unsolicited Result Code, which reads
“+CALA”.
• Airplane mode: The alarm function can be used to wake up the ME at a scheduled time.
For this purpose, set the alarm as described below. Then power down the ME by entering the AT^SMSO command. When the alarm time is reached the ME enters the Airplane mode, notified to the user by the URC "^SYSSTART AIRPLANE MODE" and, if available, by a user defined text message (specified with <text>). In Airplane mode, the RF interface of the ME is shut down to prevent it from unintentionally logging into the GSM network. All
AT commands whose execution requires a radio connection are disabled. A list of AT commands supported during Airplane mode can be found in Section 20.4, Availability of
AT Commands Depending on Operating Mode of ME. To return from Airplane mode to
Normal mode use the AT^SCFG command and set the parameter <map> to "off". This immediately activates the RF interface and restores access to all AT commands. The
URC "^SYSSTART" notifies the user that the ME has returned to Normal mode. Please note that setting an alarm with AT+CALA is one method to wake up into Airplane mode.
The second approach is using the AT^SCFG command, parameter <mapos>. For further detail on Airplane mode refer to Section 2.14, AT^SCFG.
The test command returns supported array index values <n>, alarm types <type>, and the maximum length of the text <tlength> to be output.
The read command returns the list of current alarm settings in the ME.

After power-down and wake-up at the scheduled time, the following URC indicates that the ME has entered the
Airplane mode:
"^SYSSTART AIRPLANE MODE"
+CALA: [<text>]
Parameter Descriptions:
<time>
Format is “yy/MM/dd,hh:mm:ss”. For example, 6 th
of July 2005, 22:10:00 hours equals to “05/07/06,22:10:00”
(see also AT+CCLK). Note: if <time> equals current date and time or is set to an earlier date, TA returns +CME
ERROR: 21. To clear a given alarm before its scheduled time, simply enter an empty string for parameter
<time>.
<n>
Integer type value indicating the array index of the alarm.
The ME allows to set only one alarm at a time. Therefore, the list of supported alarm events indicated by the test command AT+CALA=? is <n>=0. If a second alarm time is set, the previous alarm will be deleted. Therefore, the read command AT+CALA? will always return <n>=0. This is also true if individual settings are made on ASC0 or the various Multiplexer channels. For details, see notes below.
Multi-Tech Systems, Inc. AT Commands for EDGE Modems (S000371B) 226
Chapter 18 – Hardware-Related Commands
<type>
Integer type value indicating the type of the alarm.
0 Alarm indication: text message via serial interface.
<text>
String type value indicating the text to be displayed when alarm time is reached; maximum length is <tlength>.
By factory default, <text> is undefined.
Note: <text> will be stored to the non-volatile flash memory when the device enters the Power Down mode via
AT^SMSO. Once saved, it will be available upon next power-up, until you overwrite it by typing another text. This eliminates the need to enter the full string when setting a fresh alarm.
<text> should not contain characters which are coded differently in ASCII and GSM (e.g., umlauts). See also
“Supported character sets” and “GSM alphabet tables”.
<tlength>
Integer type value indicating the maximum length of <text>. The maximum length is 16.
Notes:
• After the alarm was executed the parameter <time> of AT+CALA will be reset to “00/01/01,00:00:00”, but
<text> will be preserved as described above.
• If the Multi-Tech wireless modem is totally disconnected from power supply, the most recently saved configuration of +CALA:
<time>[,<n>[,<type>[,<text>]]] will be presented when the Multi-Tech wireless modem is powered up.
• Each time the Multi-Tech wireless modem is restarted it takes 2s to re-initialize the RTC and to update the current time. Therefore, it is recommended to wait 2s before using the commands AT+CCLK and AT+CALA
(for example 2s after ^SYSSTART has been output).
• Alarm settings on ASC0 and Multiplexer channels (see AT+CMUX):
∗ On each interface an individual <text> message can be stored, but only one time setting applies. This means an alarm <time> set on one of the interfaces overwrites the time setting on all remaining interfaces.
Therefore, the total number of alarm events returned by the read command AT+CALA? will always be
<n>=0, no matter whether different text messages are stored.
∗ When the alarm is timed out and executed, the ME sends the URC only on the interface where the most recent alarm setting was made. The alarm time will be reset to “00/01/01,00:00:00” on all interfaces.
Examples:
Example 1
You may want to configure a reminder call for July 31, 2005, at 9.30h, including the message “Good Morning”.
AT+CALA=”05/07/31,09:30:00”,0,0,”Good Morning”
OK
Do not switch off the GSM engine. When the alarm is executed the ME returns the following URC:
+CALA: Good Morning
Example 2
To set a fresh alarm using the same message as in Example 1, simply enter date and time. <n>, <type>, <text>,
<tlength> can be omitted:
AT+CALA=”05/07/31,08:50:00”
OK
When the alarm is executed the URC comes with the same message:
+CALA: Good Morning
Example 3
To enable the ME to wake up into Airplane mode; e.g., on July 20, 2005, at 8.30h, enter:
AT+CALA="05/07/20,08:30:00"
OK
Next, power down the ME:
AT^SMSO
^SMSO: MS OFF
OK
^SHUTDOWN
When the alarm is executed the ME wakes up to Airplane mode and displays a URC. If available, this line is followed by the individual <text> most recently saved. If no individual message was saved only the first line appears.
"^SYSSTART AIRPLANE MODE"
+CALA: Good Morning
Example 4
To delete an alarm before its scheduled time is reached, enter an empty string for the <time> parameter. This will restore the default time and clear any individual message defined with <text>.

Notes:
• Please refer to the “Hardware Interface Description” for specifications on critical temperature ranges.
• To avoid damage the module will shut down once the critical temperature is exceeded.
The procedure is equivalent to the power-down initiated with AT^SMSO.
• URCs indicating the alert level “1” or “-1” are intended to enable the user to take appropriate precautions, such as protect the module from exposure to extreme conditions, or save or back up data etc.
The presentation of “1” or “-1” URCs depends on the settings selected with the write command:
If <n>=0: Presentation is enabled for 15 s time after the module was switched on. After 15 s operation, the presentation will be disabled; i.e., no URCs will be generated.
If <n>= 1: Presentation of “1” or “-1” URCs is always enabled.
• Level “2” or “-2” URCs are followed by immediate shutdown. The presentation of these URCs is always enabled; i.e., they will be output even though the factory setting AT^SCTM=0 was never changed.
• If the temperature limit is exceeded while an emergency call is in progress the engine continues to measure the temperature and to deliver alert messages, but deactivates the shutdown functionality. Once the call is terminated full temperature control will be resumed. If the temperature is still out of range ME switches off immediately.

18.6 AT^SSYNC Configure SYNC Pin
Description: The AT^SSYNC command serves to configure the SYNC pin of the application interface.
Please note that the SYNC pin may be assigned different functions: Depending on the design of the host application, the pin can either be used to indicate the current consumption in a transmit burst or to drive a status LED connected to the specified pin.
Before changing the mode of the SYNC pin, carefully read the technical specifications.
Test Command Syntax: AT^SSYNC=?
Response: ^SSYNC:list of supported <mode>s

Read Command Syntax: AT^SSYNC?
Response: ^SSYNC:<mode>

Write Command Syntax: AT^SSYNC=<mode>
Response: OK
Parameter Description:
<mode>
0
1
Operation mode of the SYNC pin.
SYNC mode:
Enables the SYNC pin to indicate growing power consumption during a transmit burst.
You can make use of the signal generated by the SYNC pin, if power consumption is your concern. To do so, ensure that your application is capable of processing the signal. Your platform design must be such that the incoming signal causes other components to draw less current. In short, this allows your application to accommodate current drain and thus, supply sufficient current to the GSM engine if required.
LED mode:
Enables the SYNC pin to drive a status LED installed in your application.
The coding of the LED is described in Section 18.6.1, ME status indicated by status LED patterns.
LED mode:
Like <mode>=1, but additionally, enables different LED signals in SLEEP mode depending on the status of PIN authentication and network registration. See AT+CFUN for SLEEP mode details.
18.6.1 ME Status Indicated by Status LED Patterns
The following table lists the possible patterns of status LED behavior and describes the ME operating status indicated by each pattern if AT^SSYNC parameter <mode>=1 and <mode>=2.

ME is in the following mode:
POWER DOWN mode and
AIRPLANE mode.
Same as for AT^SSYNC=1 Limited Network Service: No SIM card inserted or no PIN entered, or network search in progress, or ongoing user authentication, or network login in progress.
This applies whether the ME works at full functionality level AT+CFUN=1 or has entered a “temporary wake-up state” during one of the CYCLIC SLEEP modes.
IDLE mode: The mobile is registered to the GSM network (monitoring control channels and user interactions). No call
Same as for AT^SSYNC=1 is in progress.
The same LED pattern applies when the ME enters a “temporary wake-up state during one of the CYCLIC SLEEP modes (e.g., after characters have been received on the serial interface).

SLEEP modes where it wakes up only temporarily to make the call.
Not possible: With AT^SSYNC=1, LED signal is disabled in SLEEP mode.
SLEEP mode is activated (AT+CFUN parameter <fun> ≠ 1), but the ME is not registered to the GSM network
(e.g., SIM not inserted or PIN not entered, and therefore, either no network service or only Limited
Network Service is available.
Not possible: With AT^SSYNC=1, LED signalization is disabled in SLEEP mode.
Not possible: With AT^SSYNC=1, LED signalization is disabled in SLEEP mode.
SLEEP mode is activated (AT+CFUN parameter <fun> ≠ 1) while the ME is registered to the GSM network.
SLEEP mode is activated (AT+CFUN parameter <fun> ≠ 1) while the ME is registered to the GSM network.
Additionally, PDP context is activated.
Note: When the ME is in Limited Service or IDLE mode with/without PDP context activated, the on/off time ratio of the LED is always the same, no matter whether or not power saving is enabled. The only difference is that in
SLEEP mode the duration of the on/off periods is a multiple n of the equivalent periods without SLEEP mode.
The multiple n is synchronous to the active state of CTS during SLEEP mode (where CTS is set/reset every 0.9 -
2.7 seconds). See also AT+CFUN for the timing of CTS.

20.1 Restricted Access to SIM Data after SIM PIN
Authentication
Users should be aware that when using a phonebook, SMS or Remote SAT 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. This delay is due to the initial process of loading SIM data once after SIM PIN authentication.
The duration of loading SIM data is dependent on the SIM card used and may take a couple of seconds.
The "^SSIM READY" URC enabled with AT^SSET can be used to notify the user when the ME has finished reading the SIM card and SIM data are accessible after SIM PIN authentication. Of course, all phonebook and SMS commands may be issued before the URC is delivered. In this case the AT command response (for example the complete phonebook) will appear after the delay mentioned above, but before the AT^SSET is displayed. See example below.
Example:
AT^SSET=1
OK
AT&W
Activate the "^SSIM READY" URC.
Store the presentation mode of the "^SSIM READY" URC to the user profile.
OK
AT+CFUN=1,1
OK
^SYSSTART
AT+CPIN
OK
AT+CPBW=50,"+4030123456789",145,"Paul"

^SSIM READY
Restart the ME.
The ME was restarted.
Enter the SIM PIN.
Write a new phonebook record.
AT+CPBR=50,50
+CPBR: 50,"+4030123456789",145,"Paul"
The URC now confirms that the ME has finished reading data from the SIM.
Read the phonebook entered before.
The phonebook entry was properly saved.
