4 Product function

4.1 Job role

Access Point is abbreviated as AP mode, similar to a router, allowing wireless devices to connect and establishing

TCP/IP-based server, client, and UDP communications. In this mode, 4 stations are supported, and a maximum of 4 Tcp

socket transmissions are supported. The command AT+MODE=1,x,x sets the first digit to: 1, to configure the device to

work in the AP role.

Station mode is abbreviated as STA. In this role, the device does not provide connections and can only connect to

Access Point or routers. This device supports TCP server, TCP client, and UDP in the Station role, and supports up to 4

sockets. Also supports MQTT, WebSocket, HTTP clinet. The command AT+MODE=2,x,x sets the first digit to: 2, to

configure the device to work in the STA role.

WiFi Direct mode is a way to establish a point-to-point connection directly without routing. It is also called P2P,

which is similar to Bluetooth but the transmission rate is significantly higher than Bluetooth. Command

AT+MODE=3,x,x set the first digit to: 3 to configure the device to work in WiFi Direct mode.

There are two roles in P2P mode: Client; GroupOwner.

The transmission mode refers to the number of sockets supported by the device under the TCP/IP protocol. When

only one socket is supported, we define it as single-mode transmission, and when multiple channels are supported, we

define it as protocol transmission.

It should be noted that the transmission mode parameter does not take effect for WiFi-Direct.

Transparent transmission means that when only one socket is supported, the data from the serial port or the network

is sent directly without any format.

Command AT+MODE=x.1,x set the second bit to 1 to configure the device to work in transparent transmission

mode
