2.2  Virtual channels and AT commands 
Please note that a cellular engine designed for multiplex operation does not include three 
different devices. Only one single air interface (RF part) is available.  
 
As mentioned before the multiplexer enables one serial interface to run three sessions 
simultaneously. All incoming or outgoing calls are connected to the device.  
Channel 1 supports the full range of functions, which is available without multiplexer tool. 
Channel 2 and 3 are connected to a different AT interpreter and support a subset of the 
functional range of channel 1, for more details refer to Table 1.

except for AT commands related to data and fax calls

only two channels can be used parallel to transmit GPRS data 
 
 
 
 
Examples 
•  While a data call is in progress on channel 1, you can send a short message on channel 
2 and edit the phonebook on channel 3.  
•  When receiving a fax on channel 1, you are able to check the battery capacity using the 
appropriate AT command on channel 2 or 3. 
 
 
Note 
Due to the technical requirements of multiplexer mode, data and fax calls can only be set up 
on logical channel 1 while GPRS connections can be established on every channel. Several 
AT commands have a different behavior on channels 2 and 3. Additional information 
regarding restrictions and interferences between the channels can be found in chapter 3.1 
and in [2].
