1.3 Document conventions

Throughout the document, the GSM engines are referred to as ME (Mobile Equipment), MS (Mobile Station), TA (Terminal Adapter), DCE (Data Communication Equipment) or facsimile DCE (FAX modem, FAX board). To control your GSM engine you can simply send AT Commands via its serial interface. The controlling device at the other end of the serial line is referred to as TE (Terminal Equipment), DTE (Data Terminal Equipment) or plainly 'the application' (probably running on an embedded system). All abbreviations and acronyms used throughout this document are based on the GSM specifications. For definitions please refer to TR 100 350 V7.0.0 (1999-08), (GSM 01.04, version 7.0.0 release 1998).

1.3.1 Quick reference table

Each AT command description includes a table similar to the example shown below. The table is intended as a quick reference to indicate the following functions: PIN: Is the AT command PIN protected? % Yes ! No

§ Usage is dependent on conditions specified for the command, or not all command types are PIN

protected (for example write command PIN protected, read command not).

Note: The table provided in Section 21.3, Available AT Commands and Dependency on SIM

PIN uses the same symbols.

ASC0: Is the AT command supported on the first physical serial interface ASC0? % Yes ! No ASC1: Is the AT command supported on the second physical serial interface ASC1? % Yes ! No USB: Is the AT command supported on the USB interface? % Yes ! No MUXn: Is the AT command usable on the Multiplexer channels MUX1, MUX2, MUX3? % Yes

! No

§ AT command is usable, but under the restrictions specified in the section related to the command. Note: The columns MUX1, MUX2 and MUX3 are relevant only when the GSM engine operates in Mul-

tiplexer mode, that is, when the first physical serial interface is partitioned into 3 virtual channels by using the Multiplexer protocol. Usage is the same on ASC0 and MUX1.

% Yes ! No

§ In AIRPLANE mode, not all described functions are available. For example, the test or read com-

Charge: Is the AT command supported in CHARGE ONLY mode? % Yes ! No

§ AT command is usable, but under the restrictions specified in the section related to the command. Last: If commands are concatenated, this AT command must be the last one. % Yes ! No Note: See also Section 1.4, AT Command Syntax for details on concatenated AT commands.

Is the AT command supported in AIRPLANE mode?

mand is usable, the write or execute command is not. Furthermore, only some of the listed parameters can be changed in AIRPLANE mode. A typical example is AT^SCFG that controls different features.

Example:

PIN ASC0 ASC1 USB MUX1 MUX2 MUX3 Charge 4 Last

1.4 AT Command Syntax

The "AT" or "at" prefix must be set at the beginning of each command line. To terminate a command line enter

<CR>. Commands are usually followed by a response that includes "<CR><LF><response><CR><LF>". Through-

out this document, only the responses are presented,

Table 1.4: Types of AT commands and responses

AT command type Syntax Function

Test command AT+CXXX=? The mobile equipment returns the list of parameters and value

ranges set with the corresponding Write command or by internal processes.

Read command AT+CXXX? This command returns the currently set value of the parameter or

parameters. Write command AT+CXXX=<...> This command sets user-definable parameter values. Exec(ution) command AT+CXXX The execution command reads non-variable parameters deter-

mined by internal processes in the GSM engine.

<CR><LF> are omitted intentionally.

1.4.1 Using Parameters

• Optional parameters are enclosed in square brackets. If optional parameters are omitted, the current settings are used until you change them.

• Optional parameters or subparameters can be omitted unless they are followed by other parameters. If you want to omit a parameter in the middle of a string it must be replaced by a comma. See also example 1.

• A parameter value enclosed in square brackets represents the value that will be used if an optional parameter is omitted. See also example 2.

• When the parameter is a character string, e.g. <text> or <number>, the string must be enclosed in quotation marks, e.g. "Charlie Brown" or "+49030xxxx". Symbols in quotation marks will be recognized as strings.

• All spaces will be ignored when using strings without quotaton marks.

• It is possible to omit the leading zeros of strings which represent numbers.

• If an optional parameter of a V.250 command is omitted, its value is assumed to be 0.

Example 1: Omitting parameters in the middle of a string

AT+CCUG? +CCUG: 1,10,1 OK AT+CCUG=,9 OK AT+CCUG? +CCUG: 1,9,1 OK

Example 2: Using default parameter values for optional parameters

Query current setting

Set only the middle parameter

Query new setting

AT+CFUN=7,0 OK AT+CFUN? +CFUN: 7 OK AT+CFUN= OK +CFUN: 1 OK

1.4 AT Command Syntax

1.4.2 Combining AT commands on the same command line

You may enter several AT commands on the same line. This eliminates the need to type the "AT" or "at" prefix before each command. Instead, it is only needed once at the beginning of the command line. Use a semicolon as command delimiter. The table below lists the AT commands you cannot enter together with other commands on the same line. Otherwise, the responses may not be in the expected order.

AT command type Comment V.250 commands with FAX commands (Prefix AT+F) GSM 7.07 commands with Siemens commands, Prefix AT^S) GSM 7.05 commands (SMS) To be used standalone Commands starting with AT& To be used standalone

AT+IPR To be used standalone

Note: When concatenating AT commands please keep in mind that the sequence of processing may be different from the sequential order of command input. Therefore, if the consecutive order of the issued commands and the associated responses is your concern, avoid concatenating commands on the same line.

TC63 AT Command Set

1.5 Supported character sets

The ME supports two character sets: GSM 03.38 (7 bit, also referred to as GSM alphabet or SMS alphabet) and UCS2 (16 bit, refer to ISO/IEC 10646). See AT+CSCS for information about selecting the character set. Character tables can be found below.

Explanation of terms

• International Reference Alphabet (IRA) IRA means that one byte is displayed as two characters in hexadecimal format. For example, the byte 0x36 (decimal 54) is displayed as "36" (two characters). IRA is used here for input 8-bit or 16-bit data via terminal devices using text mode. This means only characters 'A'..F','a'..'f' and '0'..'9' are valid.

• Escape sequences The escape sequence used within a text coded in the GSM default alphabet (0x1B) must be correctly interpreted by the TE, both for character input and output. To the module, an escape sequence appears like any other byte received or sent.

• Terminal Adapter (TA) TA is used equivalent to Mobile Equipment (ME) which stands for the GSM module described here. It uses GSM default alphabet as its character set.

• Terminal Equipment (TE) TE is the device connected to the TA via serial interface. In most cases TE is an ANSI/ASCII terminal that does not fully support the GSM default alphabet, for example MS Hyperterminal.

• TE Character Set The character set currently used by Terminal Equipment is selected with AT+CSCS.

• Data Coding Scheme (dcs) DCS is part of a short message and is saved on the SIM. When writing a short message to the SIM in text mode, the dcs stored with AT+CSMP is used and determines the coded character set.

The behavior when encountering characters, that are not valid characters of the supported alphabets, is undefined. Due to the constraints described below it is recommended to prefer the USC2 alphabet in any external application. If the GSM alphabet is selected all characters sent over the serial line (between TE and TA) are in the range from 0 to 127 (7 Bit range). CAUTION: ASCII alphabet (TE) is not GSM alphabet (TA/ME) !

Several problems resulting from the use of GSM alphabet with ASCII terminal equipment:

• "@" character with GSM alphabet value 0 is not printable by an ASCII terminal program (e.g. Microsoft© Hyperterminal®).

• "@" character with GSM alphabet value 0 will terminate any C string! This is because the 0 is defined as C string end tag. Therefore, the GSM Null character may cause problems on application level when using a 'C'function as "strlen()". This can be avoided if it is represented by an escape sequence as shown in the table below. By the way, this may be the reason why even network providers often replace "@"with "@=*" in their SIM application.

• Other characters of the GSM alphabet are misinterpreted by an ASCII terminal program. For example, GSM "ö" (as in "Börse") is assumed to be "|" in ASCII, thus resulting in "B|rse". This is because both alphabets mean different characters with values hex. 7C or 00 and so on.

• In addition, decimal 17 and 19 which are used as XON/XOFF control characters when software flow control is activated, are interpreted as normal characters in the GSM alphabet.

When you write characters differently coded in ASCII and GSM (e.g. Ä, Ö, Ü), you need to enter escape sequences. Such a character is translated into the corresponding GSM character value and, when output later, the GSM character value can be presented. Any ASCII terminal then will show wrong responses.

CAUTION: Often, the editors of terminal programs do not recognize escape sequences. In this case, an escape sequence will be handled as normal characters. The most common workaround to this problem is to write a script which includes a decimal code instead of an escape sequence. This way you can write, for example, short messages which may contain differently coded characters.

1.5.1 GSM alphabet tables and UCS2 character values

This section provides tables for the GSM 03.38 alphabet supported by the ME. Below any GSM character find the corresponding two byte character value of the UCS2 alphabet.

Figure 1.1: Main character table of GSM 03.38 alphabet

1) This code is an escape to the following extension of the 7 bit default alphabet table.

2) This code is not a printable character and therefore not defined for the UCS2 alphabet. It shall be treated as the accompanying control character.

1) This code value is reserved for the extension to another extension table. On receipt of this code, a receiving entity shall display a space until another extension table is defined.

2) This code represents the EURO currency symbol. The code value is the one used for the character 'e'. Therefore a receiving entity which is incapable of displaying the EURO currency symbol will display the character 'e' instead.

3) This code is defined as a Page Break character and may be used for example in compressed CBS messages. Any mobile which does not understand the 7 bit default alphabet table extension mechanism will treat this character as Line Feed.

In the event that an MS receives a code where a symbol is not represented in Figure 1.2, Extension character

table of GSM 03.38 alphabet the MS shall display the character shown in the main default 7 bit alphabet table

(see Figure 1.1, Main character table of GSM 03.38 alphabet).

1.5.2 UCS2 and GSM data coding and conversion for SMS text mode

This section provides basic information on how to handle input and output character conversion for SMS text mode and Remote-SAT if internal (TA) and external (TE) character representation differ, i.e. if the Data Coding Scheme and the TE character use different coding.

1.5.2.1 Implementing output of SIM data to Terminal (direction TA to TE)

Used character set DCS = 7 bit

GSM

GSM Case 1

GSM (1:1)

UCS2 Case 4

GSM to IRA (1:4)

Note: The ratio of SIM bytes to output bytes is given in parentheses.

Case 1 Every GSM character is sent to TE as it is (8-bit value with highest bit set to zero). Example: 47'H, 53'H, 4D'H → 47'H, 53'H, 4D'H, displayed as "GSM"

Case 2 Every data byte will is sent to TE as 2 IRA characters each representing a halfbyte. Example: B8'H (184 decimal) → 42'H, 38'H, displayed as "B8"

Case 3 Every 16-bit UCS2 value is sent to TE as 4 IRA characters. Example: C4xA7'H (50343 decimal) → 43'H, 34'H, 41'H, 37'H, displayed as "C4A7" Problem: An odd number of bytes leads to an error because there are always two bytes needed for each USC2 character

Case 4 Every GSM character is sent to TE as 4 IRA characters to show UCS2 in text mode. Example: 41'H ("A") → 30'H, 30'H, 34'H, 31'H, displayed as "0041"

DCS = 8 bit Data

Case 2 8 bit to IRA (1:2)

Case 5 8 bit to IRA (1:4)

DCS = 16 bit UCS2

Case 3 UCS2 to IRA (2:4)

Case 6 UCS2 to IRA (2:4)

Case 5 Every data byte is sent to TE as IRA representation of UCS2 (similar to case 4). Example: B2'H → 30'H, 30'H, 42'H, 32'H, displayed as "00B2"

Case 6 Every 16-bit value is sent to TE as IRA representation of it. It is assumed that number of bytes is even. Example: C3x46'H → 43'H, 33'H, 34'H, 36'H, displayed as "C346"

1.5 Supported character sets

1.5.2.2 Implementing input of Terminal data to SIM (direction TE to TA)

Used character set DCS = 7 bit

GSM

GSM Case 1

GSM (1:1)

UCS2 Case 4

UCS2 to GSM (4:1)

Note: The ratio between the number of input characters and bytes stored on the SIM is given in parentheses.

Case 1 Every character is sent from TE to TA as GSM character (or ASCII with Hyperterminal). Character value must be in range from 0 to 127 because of 7-bit GSM alphabet. To reach maximum SMS text length of 160 characters in 140 bytes space characters will be compressed on SIM. This must be set using the parameter <dcs> of AT+CSMP (add 64). Example: "ABCDEFGH" typed is sent and stored uncompressed as → 4142434445464748'H (stored compressed as 41E19058341E91'H)

Case 2 Every data byte is sent to TA as 2 IRA characters. Maximum text length is 280 IRA characters which will be converted into 140 bytes SMS binary user data Example: "C8" typed is sent as 43'H, 38'H → stored as C8'H

Case 3 Every 16-bit value is sent to TA as 4 IRA characters. Maximum text length is 280 IRA characters which will be converted into 70 UCS2 characters (16-bit each) Number of IRA characters must be a multiple of four because always 4 half bytes are needed for a 16-bit value Example: "D2C8" typed is sent as 44'H, 32'H, 43'H, 38'H → stored as D2C8'H

DCS = 8 bit Data

Case 2 IRA to 8 bit (2:1)

Case 5 UCS2 to 8 bit (4:1)

DCS = 16 bit UCS2

Case 3 IRA to 16 bit (4:2)

Case 6 UCS2 to 16 bit (4:2)

Case 4 Every GSM character is sent to TA as 4 IRA characters representing one UCS2 character. Example: To store text "ABC" using UCS2 character set you have to type "004100420043". This is sent as 30'H,30'H,34'H,31'H, 30'H,30'H,34'H,32'H, 30'H,30'H,34'H,33'H → detected as IRA representation of 3 UCS2 characters, converted to GSM character set and stored as 41'H, 42'H, 43'H. Maximum input is 640 IRA characters repesenting 160 UCS2 characters when compression is active. These are converted to 160 GSM 7-bit characters. Without compression only 140 GSM characters can be stored which are put in as 560 IRA characters. Values of UCS2 characters must be smaller than 80'H (128 decimal) to be valid GSM characters. Number of IRA characters must be a multiple of four. Problems:

• "41" → Error, there are four IRA characters (two bytes) needed

• "0000" → Error, not an UCS2 character

• "4142" → Error, value of UCS2 character > 7F'H

• "008B" → Error, value of UCS2 character > 7F'H

This affects the maximum input length of a string)

Case 5 Every UCS2 character is sent as 4 IRA characters and is converted into two 8-bit values. This means that the first two characters have to be '00'. Example: UCS2 character 009F'H typed as "009F" is sent as 30'H,30'H,39'H,46'H → converted into 8-bit value 9F'H. Maximum number of UCS2 characters is 140 which are represented by 560 IRA characters. Number of IRA characters must be a multiple of four.

Case 6 Every UCS2 character is sent as 4 IRA characters each and is converted into a 16-bit value again. Example: UCS2 character 9F3A'H typed as "9F3A" is sent as 39'H,46'H,33'H,41'H → converted into 9F3A'H. Maximum number of UCS2 characters is 70 which are represented by 280 IRA characters. Number of IRA characters must be a multiple of four. Invalid UCS2 values must be prevented.

1.6 Serial Interface Flow Control

Flow control is essential to prevent loss of data or avoid errors when, in a data or fax call, the sending device is transferring data faster than the receiving side is ready to accept. When the receiving buffer reaches its capacity, the receiving device should be capable to cause the sending device to pause until it catches up. There are basically two approaches to regulate data flow: Software flow control and hardware flow control. The High Watermark of the input/output buffer should be set to approximately 60% of the total buffer size. The Low Watermark is recommended to be about 30%. The data flow should be stopped when the capacity rises close to the High Watermark and resumed when it drops below the Low Watermark. The time required to cause stop and go results in a hysteresis between the High and Low Watermarks. During Multiplex mode (AT+CMUX) it is recommended to use hardware flow control.

1.6.1 Software Flow Control (XON/OFF Handshake)

Software flow control sends different characters to stop (XOFF, decimal 19) and resume (XON, decimal 17) data flow. The only advantage of software flow control is that three wires would be sufficient on the serial interface.

1.6.2 Hardware Flow Control (RTS/CTS Handshake)

Hardware flow control sets or resets the RTS/CTS wires. This approach is faster and more reliable, and therefore, the better choice. When the High Watermark is reached, CTS is set inactive until the transfer from the buffer has completed. When the Low Watermark is passed, CTS goes active again. To achieve smooth data flow, ensure that the RTS/CTS lines are present on your application platform. The application should include options to enable RTS/CTS handshake with the GSM engine. This needs to be done with the AT command AT\Q3 - it is not sufficient to set RTS/CTS handshake in the used Terminal program only. The default setting of the GSM engine is AT\Q0 (no flow control) which must be altered to AT\Q3 (RTS/CTS hardware handshake on). The setting is stored volatile and must be restored each time after the GSM engine was switched off.

AT\Q has no read command. To verify the current setting of AT\Q, simply check the settings of the active profile

with AT&V. Often, fax programs run an intialization procedure when started up. The intialization commonly includes enabling RTS/CTS hardware handshake, eliminating the need to set AT\Q3 once again. However, before setting up a CSD call, you are advised to check that RTS/CTS handshake is set. RTS/CTS hardware handshake must also be set if you want to take advantage of the CYCLIC SLEEP modes. For further details refer to AT+CFUN.

1.7 Unsolicited Result Code Presentation

URC stands for Unsolicited Result Code and is a report message issued by the ME without being requested by the TE, i.e. a URC is issued automatically when a certain event occurs. Hence, a URC is not issued as part of the response related to an executed AT command. Typical events leading to URCs are incoming calls ("RING"), waiting calls, received short messages, changes in temperature, network registration etc. A list of all URCs can be found in Section 21.7, Summary of Unsolicited Result Codes (URC).

To announce a pending URC transmission the ME will do the following:

• The ME activates its RING line (logic "1") for 1 second, i.e. the RING line changes to the physical "Low" level. This allows the TE to stay in power saving mode until an ME related event requests service. If several URCs occur coincidently or in quick succession each URC triggers the RING line independently, although the line will not be deactivated between each URC. As a result, the RING line may stay low for more than 1 second. If an incoming call is answered within less than 1 second (with ATA or if autoanswering is set to ATS0=1) than the RING line will be deactivated earlier. The "^SHUTDOWN" will not activate the RING line.

• If the AT command interface is busy a "BREAK" will be sent immediately but the URC will not be issued until the line is free. This may happen if the URC is pending in the following cases:

- During the processing of an AT command (i.e. the time after the TE echoes back the first character "A" of

an AT command just sent by itself until the ME responds with "OK" or "ERROR").

- During a data call. Please note that AT command settings may be necessary to enable in-band signaling, e.g. refer to AT+CMER

or AT+CNMI.

It is strongly recommended to use the multiplex mode to map logical communication channels onto the serial line of the TC63, for details refer to [5] and AT command AT+CMUX. Doing so it is possible to use one channel to still process URCs while having a data call active on another. For most of these messages, the ME needs to be configured whether or not to send a URC. Depending on the AT command, the URC presentation mode can be saved to the user defined profile (see AT&W), or needs to be activated every time you reboot the ME. Several URCs are not user definable, such as "^SYSSTART", "^SYSSTART <text>", "^SHUTDOWN" If autobauding is enabled (as factory default mode or set with AT+IPR=0), URCs generated after restart will be output with 57600 bps until the ME has detected the current bit rate. The URCs "^SYSSTART", "^SYSSTART <text>", however, are not presented at all. For details please refer to Section 4.9.1, Autobauding. To avoid problems we recommend to configure a fixed bit rate rather than using autobauding.

1.7.1 Communication between Customer Application and TC63

Leaving hardware flow control unconsidered the Customer Application (TE) is coupled with the TC63 (ME) via a receive and a transmit line. Since both lines are driven by independent devices collisions may (and will) happen, i.e. while the TE issues an AT command the TC63 starts sending an URC. This will probably lead to the TE's misinterpretation of the URC being part of the AT command's response.

To avoid this conflict the following measures must be taken:

• If an AT command is finished (with "OK" or "ERROR") the TE shall always wait at least 100 milliseconds before sending the next one. This gives the TC63 the opportunity to transmit pending URCs and get necessary service. Note that some AT commands may require more delay after "OK" or "ERROR" response, refer to the following command specifications for details.

• The TE shall communicate with the TC63 using activated echo (ATE1), i.e. the TC63 echoes characters received from the TE. Hence, when the TE receives the echo of the first character "A" of the AT command just sent by itself it has control both over the receive and the transmit paths.

1.9 Errors and Messages

The command result codes "+CME ERROR: <err>" and "+CMS ERROR: <err>" indicate errors related to mobile equipment or network functionality.

The format of <err> can be either numeric or verbose and is selectable via AT+CMEE.

A result error code terminates the execution of the command and prevents the execution of all remaining commands that may follow on the same command line. If so, neither "ERROR" nor "OK" result codes are returned for these commands. A 30 seconds timeout will deliver "ERROR" when the input of a command is not complete.

Using the wrong command syntax may result in errors: For example, using the execute command syntax although the command has no execute format, causes "ERROR" to be returned. Likewise, using the write command syntax although the command has no write format causes "+CME ERROR: <err>" to be returned.

2. Configuration Commands

The AT Commands described in this chapter allow the external application to determine the TC63's behaviour under various conditions.

2.1 AT&F Set all current parameters to manufacturer defaults

AT&F sets all current parameters to the manufacturer defined profile. All defined GPRS contexts which are not
