Introduction
Product overview
In addition to traditional router functionality the Call Direct Cellular Solutions CDM800
series cellular routers (CDM) have been designed to facilitate the use of packet switched
digital cellular networks in legacy applications which support a V.250 (V.25ter, AT, Hayes
compatible) modem interface.
These applications often do not support the PPP and TCP/IP transport commonly supported
by the digital cellular networks.
Although the CDM800 series includes a cellular terminal module the external application
does not communicate directly with the digital cellular terminal, instead V.250 (AT)
commands and data are processed by the CDM.
Any V.250 commands that the CDM does not process internally may optionally be passed
to the internal cellular terminal in order to access terminal specific features.
Additionally the CDM can be configured for use as a standard circuit switched cellular data
modem.

Command and configuration reference
Overview
V.250 (AT) commands, issued from your application are used to control and configure the
CDM.
The CDM provides compatibility with legacy applications through compatibility with the
standard V.250 AT command set, these commands can be used to control the basic
functionality of the terminal.
In addition the CDM extends the V.250 command set to include a set of commands that can
be used to configure and operate the CDM’s unique features without interfering with
operation of the basic V.250 interface.
Operating states
In this manual reference is made to command state, online command state and online
data state, these states are defined as follows: -
command state:
In Command State, the terminal is not communicating with a remote station, and ready to
accept V.250 commands.
Data from the local DTE are treated as command lines and processed by the terminal and
responses are sent to the local DTE.
The terminal enters this state upon power-up, and when a call is disconnected.
online command state:
In Online Command State, the terminal is communicating with a remote station, but treats
data from the local DTE as command lines and sends responses to the local DTE.
Data received from the remote station during Online Command State is buffered in the
terminal until Online Data State is once again entered (by a command from the DTE).
Data previously transmitted by the local DTE and buffered by the terminal will be
transmitted from the buffer to the remote station during Online Command State.
Online Command State may be entered from Online Data state through the use of the ‘+++’
escape sequence or via change of DTR state as configured by the &D command.
online data state:
In Online Data State, the terminal is communicating with a remote station.
Data signals from the DTE are treated as data and transmitted to the remote station,
and data received from the remote station are delivered to the DTE.
Data and control signals are monitored by the terminal to detect events such as loss of the
remote connection and DTE requests for disconnection or switching to Online Command
state.
Online Data State is entered by successful completion of a command to originate or answer
a call, by automatically answering a call, by a DTE command to return to Online Data state
from Online Command state or in response to the DTR signal as configured by the &D
command.

Syntax Description
This section provides a brief description of the syntax used for the CDM800 series AT
command set. See the ITU-T recommendation V.250 for additional information.
DTE commands lines
In the descriptions that follow, words enclosed in <angle brackets> are references to
command elements or parameters, the brackets are not included in the commad line. Words
enclosed in [square brackets] represent optional items; such items may be omitted from
the command line again the brackets are not included in the command line.
Other characters that appear in syntax descriptions shall appear in the places shown.
For clarity terminal responses are mentioned in terms of their alphabetic format; the actual
response issued will depend on the setting of parameters that affect response formats (e.g.
Q and V commands).
Command line general format
A command line is made up of three elements: the prefix, the body, and the termination
character.
•The command line prefix consists of the characters "AT" or "at".
•The body is made up of individual commands as specified later in this document.
•Space characters are ignored and may be used freely for formatting purposes, unless
they are embedded in numeric or string constants.
•The termination character may not appear in the body.
•The terminal is capable of accepting 128 characters in the body.
Command line echo
The terminal may echo characters received from the host during command state and online
command state back to the host, depending on the setting of the Ecommand. If enabled,
characters received from the host are echoed at the same rate, parity, and format as
received.
Characters not recognized as valid in the command line or of incomplete or improperly
formed command line prefixes are not echoed.
Types of DTE commands
There are two types of commands: action commands and parameter commands.
Action commands may be "executed" (to invoke a particular function of the terminal, which
generally involves more than the simple storage of a value for later use), or "tested" (to
determine whether or not the terminal implements the action command, and, if parameters
are associated with the action, the ranges of parameter values that are supported).
Parameter commands may be "set" (to store a value or values for later use), "read" (to
determine the current value or values stored), or "tested" (to determine whether or not the
equipment implements the parameter, and the ranges of values supported).
CDM800 Series V.250 Manual Page 6 of 33
To suit software version 1.52.2 4/4/2008

DTE command syntax
Two different command formats as specified by the 2.250 specification are supported these
are basic and extended commands as described below.
Basic syntax command format
The format of Basic Syntax commands, except for the D and S commands, is as follows:
<command> [<number>]
•Where <command> is either a single character, or the "&" character followed by a
single character. Characters used in <command> shall be taken from the set of
alphabetic characters.
•<number> may be a string of one or more characters from "0" through "9"
representing a decimal integer value. Commands that expect a <number> are noted
in the description of the command.
•If a command does not expect a <number> and a number is present, an ERROR is
generated. All leading "0"s in <number> are ignored by the terminal.
•Additional commands may follow a command (and associated parameter, if any) on
the same command line without any character required for separation. The actions
of some commands cause the remainder of the command line to be ignored (e.g. A).
Special Note:
As an extension to the V.250 standard basic commands in the CDM800 series will also
accept test and query syntax described as below.
<command>?
The current values (if any) stored for the parameter are sent to the terminal in an
information text response.
The format of this response is described in the definition of the parameter. Generally, the
values will be sent in the same form in which they would be issued by the host in a
parameter setting command
<command>=?
If the terminal does not recognize the indicated command, it returns an ERROR result code
and terminates processing of the command line.
If the terminal does recognize the parameter name, it shall return an information text
response to the host, followed by an OK result code. The information text response
shall indicate the <numbers> supported by the terminal.
S-parameters
Commands that begin with the letter "S" constitute a special group of parameters known as
"S-parameters". These differ from other commands in important respects. The number
following the "S" indicates the "parameter number" being referenced. If the number is not
recognized as a valid parameter number, an ERROR result code is issued. Immediately
following this number, either a "?" or "=" character shall appear. "?" is used to read the
current value of the indicated S-parameter; "=" is used to set the S-parameter to a new
value.
CDM800 Series V.250 Manual Page 7 of 33
To suit software version 1.52.2 4/4/2008

S<parameter_number>?
S<parameter_number>= [<value>]
If the "=" is used, the new value to be stored in the S-parameter is specified in decimal
following the "=". If no value is given (i.e. the end of the command line occurs or the next
command follows immediately), an ERROR result code issued and the stored value left
unchanged.
The ranges of acceptable values are given in the description of each S-parameter.
If the "?" is used, the terminal transmits a single line of information text to the host.
This information text consists of exactly three characters, giving the value of the S-
parameter in decimal, with leading zeroes included.
Extended syntax commands
Both actions and parameters have names, which are used in the related commands. Names
always begin with the character "+" or "^".
Following the"+" or "^", from one to sixteen (16) additional characters appear in the
command name.
The command interpreter in the terminal considers lower-case characters to be the same as
their upper-case equivalents.
Values
When subparameters are associated with the execution of an action, or when setting a
parameter, the command may include specification of values. This is indicated by the
appearance of <value> in the descriptions below.
