    Appendix A S-Registers AT COMMANDS AT commands issue directions to the Express 3000 via a VT-100 termi- nal emulation session. The DTE serial port accepts AT commands only when no calls are established; i.e., the carrier detect (CD) signal is in- active.
  • Page 100 To enter an AT command, type AT followed by the command; then, press the Enter key (the AT Commands list begins on page A-4). For example, ATI1 returns the software version of the Express 3000 unit. S-REGISTERS You can change or view the Express 3000 configuration using the S-registers (the S-registers list begins on page A-9).
  • Page 101 Enter key. For example, ATD5551212 dials phone number 555-1212. Disconnecting a Call using AT Commands To end an active call using the AT commands, press the break-in key sequence +++. Then type ATH and press the Enter key to hang up the line. 61203153L2-20 Express 3000 User Manual...
