HOW IT WORKS IN MODEM MODE
Referring to the flow chart on the next page, the TX/RX and LAN indicators are used to
indicate a specific stage of initialization, data connection, as well as firmware download.
They are explained below (by number).
1) Initializing
After powering on, the TX/RX and LAN indicators will flash by turns at the time
interval of 0.25 seconds for about 30 seconds, indicating the cradle is in initialization
process.
2) Initialization OK
If initialization is done successfully, the LAN indicator will flash at the time interval of
1 second, waiting for AT commands.
3) Initialization NG
If initialization fails, the TX/RX indicator will flash at the time interval of 0.5 seconds,
indicating an error occurs. For example, it might fail to pass PIN authentication, the
signal strength is weak for the GSM network, the Access Point name is incorrect, etc.
For details on the specific initialization error, use “AT+ERR?” to get the error code.
Although initialization fails, the cradle can still accept AT commands. In case of the
“ATDT” command, it will re-initialize before dialing out.
4) Dialing out
When in Dial mode (ATDT), the LAN indicator will flash at the time interval of 0.3
seconds for about 20 seconds.
5) Connected
When in Dial mode (ATDT), the LAN indicator will be green after successfully
establishing a connection.
6) Data Transmission
When in Dial mode (ATDT), the TX/RX indicator will flash as long as data transmission
occurs.
7) Download Ready/Downloading
When in Download mode (AT+DOWNLOAD), the TX/RX and LAN indicators will flash
to indicate the cradle is ready for downloading or downloading is in progress.
8001 3G Cradle Reference Manual

Chapter 2
How It Works in Modem Mode
2.1 DIALING OUT
When the mobile computer is seated in the cradle, it can send the collected data back to
a remote server, as well as download lookup files, via GSM or 3G/GPRS.
When dialing out (ATDT), the LED of LAN will flash at the time interval of 0.3 seconds for
about 20 seconds. When connected, the LED of LAN will be green after successfully
establishing a connection. The LED of TX/RX will flash as long as data transmission
occurs.
Note: It is suggested to issue the command “AT” every five seconds for best practice, in
order to check whether the mobile computer is seated in the cradle.
The escape sequence, consisting of three characters “+++”, is used to terminate
the data connection.
2.1.1 GSM CONNECTION
When initialization is done, issue ATDT(phone number) to establish data connection via
GSM.
Note: This type of connection is only available for 2G SIM Card.
2.1.2 3G/GPRS CONNECTION
When initialization is done, issue ATDTxxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:kkkk or ATDT[HostName:Port] to
establish data connection via 3G/GPRS. The buffer size of the cradle is 1460 bytes, and
data packet will be sent out as long as it satisfies any of the following requirements:
 buffer is full (= maximum packet size is 1460 bytes)
 delimiter character is encountered
 end of transmission timeout (= no transmission for 5 milliseconds)

AT Commands
AT COMMAND SYNTAX
The "AT" or "at" prefix must be set at the beginning of each command line. To terminate
a command line, enter . Commands are usually followed by a response as
"".
 Parameter […]
Specify user-definable parameter values, which may be  or .
 (ERR_STR)
If a connection fails, the response may include a string after the message “NO
CARRIER”, providing further information on the connection error.
 [ERR_CODE]
If a connection fails, the response will always include a 6-digit hexadecimal number
(always starting with “0x”). Refer to the Error Code table for more information.
Note: If you are programming in BASIC language, the delimiter 0x0d (CR) is in use by
default. Refer to COM_DELIMITER().
The escape sequence consists of three characters “+++”. Once a connection has been
established, type the escape sequence to return to command state. When entering the
next command after an escape sequence, always wait to receive “\r\nOK\r\n”. The
escape sequence only works after dialing out and establishing the connection.
Note: The escape sequence will break the connection.
There are equal guard time before (leading) and after (trailing) the escape sequence
command, as illustrated below.
If the escape sequence is not followed by another command within 1 second (trailing
guard time), the cradle will hang up immediately. Normally, the mobile computer will
receive the message “OK” unless the line is abnormally busy.
Note: The Guard Time is 1 second and cannot be changed.
