Atlas PT Technical Manual
15
For configuration and other communication in a machine-to-machine environment,
Raveon recommends the WMX protocol instead of command mode. See the WMX
specification for usage information. The ATLAS PT
fully implements the WMX protocol.
5.3
Setting a Parameter
To set a parameter in the ATLAS PT
modem, enter the Command Mode as described
above. Then enter the proper command, a space, the parameter, and then a carriage
return. For Example, to set the destination address of the ATLAS PT
modem to 1234,
enter the following command:
ATDT 1234
<CR>.
Once a Parameter is changed, it will be permanently saved and the modem will begin
using the new parameter.
5.4
Reading a Parameter
To read the value of a particular setting, issue the command with no parameter. The
modem will return the value followed by an “OK”.
For example, if the user enters the command to read the
ATLAS SM
’s destination
address and its address was 1234, the user would issue the following command:
ATDT
<CR>
and the modem will respond with:
1234
<CR><LF>
OK
<CR><LF>
To get on-line help with a command, enter the command and put a question mark in for
the parameter. For example, to see what the ATDT command is used for, type
ATDT ?
.
The modem will respond by listing a brief description of the command. To see a list of
all commands, type
HELP
.
