Data Communication and Host Modes

carriage return ‐ if V=0
carriage return and new line OK another carriage
return and new line ‐ if V=1
Note: These commands work for the port on which they are executed.
For example, if the user types ATE1 and then AT&W using a serial
port connection, it will set the serial port to Echo On.
PassThru Mode
In PassThru mode, the Raven does not behave normally, all
port communication is passed directly between the internal
hardware and the computer connected directly to the modem.
This mode can be used to configure hardware‐specific settings.
For example, provisioning, troubleshooting, communicating
with legacy equipment, etc.
Caution: ALEOS is disabled in PassThru Mode. You cannot use
most ALEOS specific commands while the modem is in PassThru
Mode. While in PassThru mode, you also cannot use AceManager to
connect with the PinPoint.
Issuing the “AT\APASSTHRU” from a terminal emulation
enters this mode. The modem responds with OK, at which
point a direct connection to the internal hardware is estab‐
lished. You can also configure the modem to enter PassThru
mode on start up using MD.
Tip: PassThru can only be exited by resetting or power-cycling the
modem. This mode cannot be entered via a remote Telnet session.
You can configure a string of AT commands to be sent to the
Raven when it enters PassThru and other PassThru settings.
