Step 2. Establish connection with remote WINC 900A

1. Get the remote station’s address, the right-most seven (7) digits of the serial number

digit found on the label affixed to the left side of the unit.

2. Type in AT connection command ATDT with seven (7) digit remote address as

“ATDTxxxxxxx”.

3. You should get a “CONNECT” as response at both sides.
4. If you did get the “CONNECT” response, you will stay in direct connection mode until

you type in the escape sequence “+++”.

file name for the in-coming file.

Step 4. Disconnect established link between two WINC 900As

The WINC 900A only responds to AT commands when in the command or off-line mode.
Consequently, to terminate a connection, the unit must escape to this mode before it will
respond. This is accomplished by issuing the escape sequence "+++". Once in the
command mode, the AT command ATH is issued to close the connection.

While the basic AT command set is generic and applies to most land-line modems, a number of AT
commands unique to the WINC 900A are included in Section 7.3. These commands are used to
control air-link specific parameters like the channel number and other operational characteristics.

For completeness, the basic and extended AT command set is described in Section 7.0. In addition,
Appendix A contains the Standard AT Modem Commands and Appendix B contains the S Register
Summary.
