AT Commands

Keepalive (See “Keepalive” on page 24.) allows the Raven to stay connected to the
cellular network even when there are periods of inactivity.

*IPMGRUPDATEn=m

n= 1 or 2

m=5-255

Sets the number of minutes to periodically send an IP
update notification to the corresponding server. This will
occur even if the IP address of the Raven doesn't change.
*IPMGRUPDATE1 is used to set the refresh rate to
*IPMANAGER1, while *IPMGRUPDATE2 is used
with *IPMANAGER2.

If the value is set to 0, then periodic updates will not be
issued (i.e. IP change notifications will only be sent
when the IP actually changes).

*MODEMNAME=[name]

name = domain
name (i.e. eair-
link.com)

Caution: Only
letters, num-
bers, and
hyphens can be
used.

Name of the Raven (up to 20 characters long) to use
when performing IP change notifications to IPManager.
The value in *DOMAIN provides the domain zone to
add to this name.

Example: if *MODEMNAME=mymodem and
*DOMAIN=eairlink.com, then the modem's fully qual-
ified domain name is mymodem.eairlink.com.

Note: Each modem using IPManager needs a unique
name. Two modems cannot be called “mymodem”. One
could be “mymodem1” with the other as “mymodem”.

Automatically Generated Names:

#I3 - The ESN/IMEI will be used as the name

#CCID - The CCID will be used as the name

#NETPHONE - The phone number be used as the name
