Kernel Mode

In the unlikely event that your Model XM128 modem fails to respond to AT commands after
upgrading the EEPROM, turn on power to the modem. The reset prompts the modem to check the
integrity of the codes in the flash EEPROM. If proper valid firmware cannot be verified, the
modem initiates kernel mode. When the Model XM128 modem is in kernel mode, you can issue
limited AT commands. Start from step 2 of the upgrade instructions on this page.
