6 Module Testing
After UC20 module is connected with your PC, you can test the module in two ways: one is to send AT
commands via AT port or Modem port using serial debugging tools, the other is to create PPP connection
via Modem port with the wizard of Windows OS.
6.1. Test Module by Sending AT commands
