F.4 PC208W Configuration

For point-to-multipoint operation the RF401 can temporarily be put into AT

Command Mode by sending a string of three ASCII characters. The default

sequence to enter AT Command mode is:

1. No characters sent for one second (before command character)

2. “+++”characters sent (default command mode entry character)

3. No characters sent for one second (after command mode character)

4. RF401 responds by sending “OK” <CR>

The AT Command mode characters are sent by PC208W along with other

commands to change the base RF401’s Radio Address to talk to the desired

remote RF401 (see point-to-multipoint below).
