Command Editing - Multitech CommPlete MT3334HD8 User Manual

A parameter after a command (0, 1, 2, etc.) tells the modem which option to use. If you do not specify a
parameter, the modem assumes the 0 (zero) option. E, for example, is the same as E0. You can issue
several commands on a single line (a command string) as long as the line does not exceed 60 characters.
Note that though Q1 is one command, it counts as two characters in the command line.
Each command has a valid range of parameters; for instance, &W can have only 0 or 1 as a parameter.
Valid commands generate an OK result code. A few generate an additional response, such as a list of
parameters. An invalid command, such as &W3, which has a parameter outside the valid range, generates
an ERROR result code. Most commands have a default parameter, one that is enabled when the modem is
turned on or reset with the ATZ or AT&F command. Factory defaults are stored in read-only memory
(ROM), and cannot be changed. User-defined defaults can be stored in nonvolatile random-access
memory (NVRAM), and can be changed or deleted at will.

Command Editing

Always begin a command with the letters AT . You may type the command in upper case or lower case, but
not both. The AT command is not executed until you press the E
the previous command character; it will not erase the AT characters once they are typed. If your keyboard
has no B
to any other ASCII character by changing register S5.
To cancel an entire command that has been typed but not yet executed, press C
command buffer. The effect is the same as backspacing the command, only quicker.
The MT3334HD8 stores characters entered in a command in the modem's command buffer until they are
executed by pressing E
(AT) do not count in the 60 allowed command characters. You may use spaces for increased readability
when typing a command; they are neither stored in the command buffer nor counted in the 60 allowed
characters. Hyphens, parentheses, etc., are not allowed.
If you exceed the 60-character limit or type invalid characters, the command buffer is automatically erased
and an ERROR message is displayed. You must then retype the command within the 60-character limit,
using only the allowed characters.
The commands in this chapter are organized by function. A brief summary follows.
