responsibility of the user application.  Refer to the Protocol Commands section for 
complete details.   
 
2.3.  Modes of Operation 
 
2.3.1.  Control and Data Modes  
 
The WIT910 has two modes of operation: Control mode and Data mode.  When in 
Control Mode, the various radio and modem parameters can be modified.  When in Data 
Mode, only data can be transmitted.  The default mode is Data Mode.  There are two 
ways to enter Control Mode.  The first way is to assert the Configure (CFG) pin on the 
modem.  Upon entering Control Mode, the modem will respond with a > prompt.  After 
each command is entered, the modem will again respond with a > prompt.  As long as the 
CFG pin is asserted, data sent to the modem will be interpreted as command data.  Once 
the CFG pin is de-asserted, the modem will return to Data Mode.   
 
The second method for entering Control Mode is to send the escape sequence 
:wit2410
 
(all lower case) followed by a carriage return. In the default mode, the escape sequence is 
only valid immediately after power up or after de-assertion of the Sleep pin on the 
modem.  The modem will respond in the same way with a 
>
 prompt.  To return to Data 
Mode, enter the Exit Modem Control Mode command, 
z>,
 or assert and de-assert the 
Sleep pin.  There are three modes for the escape sequence, controlled by the Set Escape 
Sequence Mode
 command, 
zc
 
 
zc = 0   
Escape sequence disabled 
 
zc = 1   
Escape sequence available once at startup (default setting) 
 
zc = 2   
Escape sequence available at any time 
 
The 
zc2
 mode setting is useful if the user application has a need to change the modem 
settings "on the fly". In this mode the escape sequence is always enabled and may be sent 
at any time after a pause of at least 20ms. The modem will respond in the same way as 
when in the default mode. It is necessary to issue the Exit Modem Control Mode 
command, 
z>
, before resuming data transmission.  
Note: The escape sequence must be interpreted as data until the last character is received 
and as such may be transmitted by the modem to any listening modems. 
 
2.3.2.  Sleep Mode 
 
To save power consumption for intermittent transmit applications, the WIT910 supports a 
Sleep Mode.  Sleep Mode is entered by asserting the Sleep pin on the modem interface.  
While in Sleep Mode, the modem consumes less than 250 µA.  This mode allows the 
radio to be powered off while the terminal device remains powered.  After leaving Sleep 
Mode, the radio must re-synchronize with the base station and re-register.
