6. Remote Configuration and

Country Code Configuration

6.1. Remote Configuration

Remote configuration is a network management tool that allows you to

configure modems anywhere in your network from one location. With

password-protected remote configuration, you can issue AT commands to a

remote modem for maintenance or troubleshooting as if you were on-site.

6.1.1.

Basic Procedure

The following steps are valid regardless of whether the connection is

established by the local or the remote modem.
1. Establish a data connection with a remote modem.
2. Send three remote configuration escape characters followed by AT and

the setup password and press [Enter].
• Example: %%%ATMTSMODEM.
• You have four tries to enter the correct password before being

disconnected. If the password is correct, the remote modem responds

with OK.

3. You can now send AT commands to configure the remote modem.
4. When you have finished configuring the remote modem, save the new

configuration by typing AT&W0. Press [Enter].

5. Type ATO. Press [Enter] to exit remote configuration. You can now

break the connection.

6.1.2.

Setup

MT5634 Modems are shipped with a default setup password (MTSMODEM).

Because anyone who has the User Guide knows the default setup password,

you should change the password and possibly also the remote configuration

escape character.
