1 Introduction

1.1. Scope of the Document

This document presents the AT Commands Set for Quectel cellular engine M35.

1.2. 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>”. Throughout this document, only the responses are presented,
“<CR><LF>” are omitted intentionally.

The AT Commands Set implemented by M85 is a combination of GSM07.05, GSM07.07 and ITU-T
recommendation V.25ter and the AT Commands developed by Quectel.

All these AT Commands can be split into three categories syntactically: “basic”, “S parameter”, and
“extended”. They are listed as follows:

 Basic syntax
These AT Commands have the format of “AT<x><n>”, or “AT&<x><n>”, where “<x>” is the command,
and “<n>” is/are the argument(s) for that command. An example of this is “ATE<n>”, which tells the DCE
whether received characters should be echoed back to the DTE according to the value of “<n>”. “<n>” is
optional and a default will be used if it is missing.

 S parameter syntax
These AT Commands have the format of “ATS<n>=<m>”, where “<n>” is the index of the S register to set,
and “<m>” is the value to assign to it. “<m>” is optional; if it is missing, then a default value is assigned.

 Extended syntax
These commands can be operated in several modes, as following table:

M35_AT_Commands_Manual Confidential / Released 11 / 186

 GSM/GPRS Module

Table 1: Types of AT Commands and Responses

This command returns the list of parameters and value ranges

Test Command AT+<x>=?
set by the corresponding Write Command or internal processes.
This command returns the currently set value of the parameter
Read Command AT+<x>?
or parameters.

Write Command AT+<x>=<…> This command sets the user-definable parameter values.

Execution This command reads non-variable parameters affected by

AT+<x>
Command internal processes in the GSM engine

1.2.1. Combining AT Commands on the Same Command Line

You can enter several AT Commands on the same line. In this case, you do not need to type the “AT” or
“at” prefix before every command. Instead, you only need type “AT” or “at” at the beginning of the
command line. Please note that use a semicolon as command delimiter.

The command line buffer can accept a maximum of 256 characters. If the input characters exceeded the
maximum then no command will be executed and TA will return “ERROR”.

1.2.2. Entering Successive AT Commands on Separate Lines

When you need to enter a series of AT Commands on separate lines, please note that you need to wait
the final response (for example OK, CME error, CMS error) of the last AT command you entered before
you enter the next AT command.

1.3. Supported Character Sets

The M35 AT Command interface defaults to the IRA character set. The M35 supports the following
character sets:

 GSM
 UCS2
 HEX
 IRA
 PCCP437
 8859_1

M35_AT_Commands_Manual Confidential / Released 12 / 186

 GSM/GPRS Module
M35 AT Commands Manual

The character set can be configured and interrogated using the “AT+CSCS” command (GSM 07.07). The
character set is defined in GSM specification 07.05. The character set affects transmission and reception
of SMS and SMS Cell Broadcast Messages, the entry and display of phone book entries text field and
SIM Application Toolkit alpha strings.

1.4. Flow Control

Flow control is very important for correct communication between the GSM engine and DTE. For example,
in the case such as 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 achieve data flow control: software flow control and hardware flow
control. M35 supports both two kinds of flow control.

In Multiplex mode, it is recommended to use the hardware flow control.

The default flow control approach of M35 is closed.

1.4.1. Software Flow Control (XON/XOFF Flow Control)

Software flow control sends different characters to stop (XOFF, decimal 19) and resume (XON, decimal
17) data flow. It is quite useful in some applications that only use three wires on the serial interface.

The default flow control approach of M35 is closed, to enable software flow control in the DTE interface
and within GSM engine, type the following AT command:
AT+IFC=1, 1<CR>

This setting is stored volatile, for use after restart, AT+IFC=1, 1<CR> should be stored to the user profile
with AT&W<CR>.

Ensure that any communication software package (e.g. ProComm Plus, Hyper Terminal or WinFax Pro)
uses software flow control.

NOTE

Software Flow Control should not be used for data calls where binary data will be transmitted or received
(e.g. TCP/IP), because the DTE interface may interpret binary data as flow control characters.

1.4.2. Hardware Flow Control (RTS/CTS Flow Control)

The default flow control approach of M3 is closed, to enable hardware flow control (RTS/CTS flow
control) in the DTE interface and within GSM engine, type the following AT command:
AT+IFC=2, 2<CR>.

This setting is stored volatile, for use after restart, AT+IFC=2, 2<CR> should be stored to the user profile
with AT&W<CR>.

Hardware flow control achieves the data flow control by controlling the RTS/CTS line. When the data
transfer should be suspended, the CTS line is set inactive until the transfer from the receiving buffer has
completed. When the receiving buffer is ok to receive more data, CTS goes active once again.

To achieve hardware flow control, ensure that the RTS/CTS lines are present on your application platform.

1.5. Unsolicited Result Code

A URC is a report message sent from the ME to the TE. An unsolicited result code can either be delivered
automatically when an event occurs, to reflect change in system state or as a result of a query the ME
received before, often due to occurrences of errors in executing the queries. However, a URC is not
issued as a direct response to an executed AT command. AT commands have their own implementations
to validate inputs such as “OK” or “ERROR”.

Typical URCs may be information about incoming calls, received SMS, changing temperature, status of
the battery etc. A summary of URCs is listed in Appendix A.

When sending a URC, the ME activates its Ring Interrupt (Logic “l”), i.e. the line goes active low for a few
milliseconds. If an event which delivers a URC coincides with the execution of an AT command, the URC
will be output after command execution has completed.

NOTES

1. The default configuration of AT+IPR is adaptive baud enabled (AT+IPR=0).

2. If a fixed baud rate is set, make sure that both TE (DTE, usually external processor) and TA (DCE,
Quectel GSM module) are configured to the same rate. If adaptive baud is enabled, the TA could
automatically recognize the baud rate currently used by the TE after receiving “AT” or “at” string.
3. The value of AT+IPR cannot be restored with AT&F and ATZ, but it is still storable with AT&W and
visible in AT&V.
4. In multiplex mode, the baud rate cannot be changed by the write command AT+IPR=<rate>, and the
setting is invalid and not stored even if AT&W is executed after the write command.
5. A selected baud rate takes effect after the write commands are executed and acknowledged by “OK”.

Example
AT+IPR=115200 // Set fixed baud rate to 115200

communication speed is 115200 after restart
module

3.6.1. Adaptive Baud

To take advantage of adaptive baud mode, specific attention must be paid to the following requirements:
1. Adaptive baud synchronization between TE and TA.
 Ensure that TE and TA are correctly synchronized and the baud rate used by the TE is detected
by the TA. To allow the baud rate to be synchronized simply use an “AT” or “at” string. This is
necessary after customer activates adaptive baud or when customer starts up the module with
adaptive baud enabled.
 It is recommended to wait for 2 to 3 seconds before sending the first “AT” or “at” string after the
module is started up with adaptive baud enabled. Otherwise undefined characters might be
returned.
2. Restriction on adaptive baud operation.
 The serial interface shall be used with 8 data bits, no parity and 1 stop bit (factory setting).

M35_AT_Commands_Manual Confidential / Released 36 / 186

 GSM/GPRS Module
M35 AT Commands Manual

 The command “A/” can‟t be used.

 Only the string “AT” or “at” can be detected (either “AT” or “at”).
 URCs that may be issued before the TA detects a new baud rate by receiving the first AT
character, and they will be sent at the previously detected baud rate.
 If TE‟s baud rate is changed after TA has recognized the earlier baud rate, loss of
synchronization between TE and TA would be encountered and an “AT” or “at” string must be
re-sent by TE to regain synchronization on baud rate. To avoid undefined characters during
baud rate resynchronization and the possible malfunction of resynchronization, it is not
recommended to switch TE‟s baud rate when adaptive baud is enabled. Especially, this
operation is forbidden in data mode.
3. Adaptive baud and baud rate after restarting.
 In the adaptive baud mode, the detected baud rate is not saved. Therefore, resynchronization is
required after restarting the module.
 Unless the baud rate is determined, an incoming CSD call can‟t be accepted. This must be taken
into account when adaptive baud and auto-answer mode (ATS0 ≠ 0) are enabled at the same
time, especially if SIM PIN 1 authentication is done automatically and the setting ATS0 ≠ 0 is
stored to the user profile with AT&W.
 Until the baud rate is synchronized, URCs after restarting will not be output when adaptive baud
is enabled.
4. Adaptive baud and multiplex mode.
If adaptive baud is active it is not recommended to switch to multiplex mode.
5. Adaptive baud and Windows modem.
 The baud rate used by Windows modem can be detected while setting up a dial-up GPRS/CSD
connection. However, some Windows modem drivers switch TE‟s baud rate to default value
automatically after the GPRS call is terminated. In order to prevent no response to the Windows
modem when it happens, it is not recommended to establish the dial-up GPRS/CSD connection
in adaptive baud mode.
 Based on the same considerations, it is also not recommended to establish the FAX connection
in adaptive baud mode for PC FAX application, such as WinFax.

NOTE

To assure reliable communication and avoid any problem caused by undetermined baud rate between
DCE and DTE, it is strongly recommended to configure a fixed baud rate and save it instead of using
adaptive baud after start-up.

<mgsm> String of GSM modifiers:

I Actives CLIR (Disables presentation of own number to called party)
i Deactivates CLIR (Enable presentation of own number to called party)
G Activates closed user group invocation for this call only
g Deactivates closed user group invocation for this call only
<;> Only required to set up voice call, return to command state

NOTES

1. This command may be aborted generally by receiving an ATH command or a character during
execution. The aborting is not possible during some states of connection establishment such as
handshaking.
2. Parameter "I" and "i" only if no *# code is within the dial string.
3. <n> is default value for last number that can be dialed by ATDL.
4. *# codes sent with ATD are treated as voice calls. Therefore, the command must be terminated with
a semicolon ";".
5. See ATX command for setting result code and call monitoring parameters.
6. Responses returned after dialing with ATD
 For voice call two different responses mode can be determined. TA returns “OK” immediately
either after dialing was completed or after the call was established. The setting is controlled by
AT+COLP. Factory default is AT+COLP=0, which causes the TA returns “OK” immediately
after dialing was completed, otherwise TA will returns “OK”, “BUSY”, “NO DIAL TONE”, “NO
CARRIER”.
7. Using ATD during an active voice call:
 When a user originates a second voice call while there is already an active voice call, the first
call will be automatically put on hold.
 The current states of all calls can be easily checked at any time by using the AT+CLCC
command.

Example
ATD10086; // Dialing out the party‟s number

7.4. +++ Switch From Data Mode to Command Mode

+++ Switch From Data Mode to Command Mode

Execution Command Response
+++ This command is only available during TA is in data mode,
such as, a CSD call, a GPRS connection and a transparent
TCPIP connection. The “+++” character sequence causes the
TA to cancel the data flow over the AT interface and switch to
command mode. This allows you to enter AT command while
maintaining the data connection with the remote server or,
accordingly, the GPRS connection.

OK
Reference
V.25ter

NOTES

1. To prevent the “+++” escape sequence from being misinterpreted as data, it should comply to
following sequence:
 No characters entered for T1 time (0.5 seconds).
 “+++” characters entered with no characters in between. For CSD call or PPP online mode, the
interval between two “+” MUST should be less than 1 second and for a transparent TCPIP
connection, the interval MUST should be less than 20 ms.
 No characters entered for T1 time (0.5 seconds).
 Switch to command mode, otherwise go to step 1.
2. To return from command mode back to data or PPP online mode: Enter ATO
 Another way to change to command mode is through DTR, see AT&D command for the details.

Reference

Parameter

<index> A numeric indicates which socket opens the connection. M35 supports at most 6
sockets at the same time. This parameter is necessary only if AT+QIMUX was set as 1
(refer to AT+QIMUX). When AT+QIMUX was set as 0, the parameter MUST be
omitted
<mode> A string parameter which indicates the connection type
"TCP" Establish a TCP connection
"UDP" Establish a UDP connection
<IP address> A string parameter that gives the address of the remote server in dotted decimal style.

M35_AT_Commands_Manual Confidential / Released 123 / 186

 GSM/GPRS Module

<port> The port of the remote server

<domain name> A string parameter which represents the domain name address of the remote server

NOTES
1. This command is allowed to establish a TCP/UDP connection only when the state is IP INITIAL or IP
STATUS or IP CLOSE. So it is necessary to process "AT+QIDEACT" or "AT+QICLOSE" before
establishing a TCP/UDP connection with this command when the state is not IP INITIAL or IP
STATUS or IP CLOSE.
2. If AT+QIMUX was set as 0 and the current state is CONNECT OK, which means the connection
channel is used, it will reply "ALREADY CONNECT" after issuing the Write command.

Parameter

<index> The index of the socket for sending data. This parameter is necessary only if AT+QIMUX
was set as 1 (refer to AT+QIMUX). When AT+QIMUX was set as 0, the parameter MUST
be omitted
<length> A numeric parameter which indicates the length of data to be sent, it MUST be less than
1460

NOTES

1. This command is used to send data on the TCP or UDP connection that has been established
already. Ctrl+Z is used as a termination symbol. ESC is used to cancel sending data.
2. The maximum length of the data to input at a time is 1460.
3. This command is invalid when QIMUX is 1 (refer to AT+QIMUX).
4. There are at most 1460 bytes that can be sent each time.
5. Only send data at the status of connection, otherwise respond with ERROR.
6. SEND OK means the data have been put into the send window to send rather than it has received
the ACK message for the data from the remote node. To check whether the data has been sent to the
remote note, it is necessary to execute the command AT+QISACK to query it.

NOTES

1. Execution Command AT+QICLOSE:

 If QISRVC is 1 (please refer to AT+QISRVC) and QIMUX is 0 (please refer to AT+QIMUX), this
command will close the connection in which the module is used as a client.
 If QISRVC is 1 and QIMUX is 1, it will return ERROR.
 If QISRVC is 2 and QIMUX equals 0 and the module is used as a server and some clients have
been connected to it, this command will close the connection between the module and the
remote client.
 If QISRVC is 2 and QIMUX is 0 and the module is in listening state without any client, this
command will cause the module to quit the listening state.
 If QISRVC is 2 and QIMUX is 1 and the module is used as a server, this command will close all
the income connection and cause the module to quit the listening state.
2. Write Command AT+QICLOSE=<index>:
 This command is valid only if QIMUX is 1.
 If QISRVC is 1 and QIMUX is 1, this command will close the corresponding connection
