Standard AT Commands Supported
The Serial Device Server recognizes a subset of the standard AT command set. The data channel must
be in the command mode for commands to be recognized. The data channel will be in command mode
upon power up or reset.
be in the command mode for commands to be recognized. The data channel will be in command mode
upon power up or reset.
There are two operating modes for the unit when the AT command option is enabled. In command mode,
data received from the serial port is passed to the AT command processor, and responses are returned to
the serial port. No data is sent to any network application, and any data received from the network is
ignored. In data mode, data from the serial port passes to the network application, and vice versa. This
is equivalent to the normal serial port operating mode without the AT command option.

Table 5 describes the AT Commands. Table 6 details the Extended AT Commands that allow the
configuration of the network server operating parameters. Any AT command received, except the listed
commands, are acknowledged with OK status. This allows existing modem applications to transmit
commands without causing an error. These include AT<X>n, but not currently AT&<X>n, AT%<X>n, AT\
<X>n, where <X> is a letter.
