Q: What are AT commands ?
AT commands, also called Hayes AT commands, are based on the Hayes Modem de facto standard,
ATTENTION Commands for modems. They are used to communicate with your modem. These commands modify your
modem's behaviour or instruct the
modem to do something specific, such as dialling a telephone number. The "AT" refers to getting the ATtention of your modem.
Here are some typical reasons using AT commands:
to identify your modem and firmware version.
to send an init string to initialize your modem, or put it in a known state.
to turn the modem speaker on or off.
to turn the speak volume up or down.
to force an error correction mode.
to specify the type of flow control.
to limit the speed of your connection if you are having line problems.
etc.
