20 Appendix A: A T Command Set A T Commands A T commands are issued to the modem to control the modems operation and software configuration. A T commands can only be entered while the modem is in command mode. The format for entering A T commands is: TYPE: A TXn where X is the A T command, and n is the specific value for that command.
21 TYPE: A TSn?<enter> where n is the register number . T o modify the value of an S-register: TYPE: A TSn = r<enter> where n is the register number , and r is the new register value. Common A T Commands and S Registers The following are some common A T Commands.
22 This command controls whether or not the characters entered from your computer keyboard are echoed back to your monitor while the modem is in command mode. E0: Disables echo to the computer .

24 V1: Displays result codes as text (default). Wn Result Code Option W0: CONNECT result code reports DTE (modem to computer) speed. W1: CONNECT result code reports DTE speed. W2: CONNECT result code reports DCE (modem to modem) speed. W3: CONNECT result code reports DTE speed and information on error cor- rection and data compression.
25 &F Load Factory Settings This command loads the configuration stored and programmed at the factory . This operation replaces all of the command options and the S-register settings in the active configuration with factory values. &F: Recall factory setting as active configuration.
26 &S1: DSR comes on when establishing a connection and when carrier is lost. &Vn V iew Active Configuration and Stor ed Profile This command is used to display the active profiles. &V0: V iew stored profile 0. &V1: V iew stored profile 1.
27 %G0: Disabled. %G1: Enabled. -Cn Data Calling T one Data Calling T one is a tone of certain frequency and cadence as specified in V .25 which allows remote Data/F AX/V oice discrimination. The frequency is 1300 Hz with a cadence of .5 s on and 2 s off.
28 <min rate> This entry specifies the lowest data transfer rate which the modem may establish a connection. <max rate> This parameter specifies the highest speed at which the modem may establish a connection.
