Preparations for Communications
6.4.1
Procedure for initial setup
Initialize non-volatile memory/set default settings of comm. parameters
From the DTE, input the command AT&F&W, <CR>(Enter or Return depending
on the PC). DTE appears when the equipment is initialized.
Resetting the communication parameters
When using the communications parameters stored in non-volatile memory:
1. Let the DTE operate as a communication terminal.
2. Enter "ATZ<CR>" via the DTE. When the DTE screen shows "OK," the initial
setup of the communication parameters is now completed. Depending on your
application, this process can be automatically carried out every time a
communication is started. In this case, you do not need to perform this step.
6.4.2
Setting the communication parameters
For detailed information on each command, see paragraph 5.9 AT Commands.
Subsequently, the initial values are indicated in parentheses.
Communication format
AT+ICF
AT+WRATE
6-6
(AT+ICF=3,3: 8-bit data; no parity; 1 stop bit)
Sets the format between the DTE and the MES
(AT+WRATE=9600,9600)
Sets the maximum data rate for the satellite link and that
for the terrestrial link.
