AT Commands
Note
If the modem is set to respond to DTR the DTR signal must
be on for autoanswer to work.
TERMINAL INTERFACE COMMANDS
The EIA-232 interface connects the modem and DTE. Terminal inter-
face commands control the action of the modem and the terminal in
response to the signals being exchanged on the interface pins. Refer to
Table 2-1.
Data Carrier Detect &C
When using DCD to indicate a valid carrier, use the &C1 command.
Some terminals and other devices require DCD on in order to communi-
cate with the modem; if so, use the &C command.
Command
&C
&C1
&C2
&C3
* default
AT&C3 is used to simulate switched carrier operation.
Note
For simulated switched carrier operation &C3 must be
selected on both modems. Not available in the B103 and
V.21 modulation modes.
5-18
DCD always on*
DCD is on when the modem recognizes remote modem
carrier or if enabled when protocol negotiation is com-
plete.
DCD on except for 5 seconds after disconnect
DCD follows RTS on remote modem (simulated
switched carrier V.13).
