Enter  73  or  75  for the virtual port number on which to view diagnostics (one or more of these should be configured in ACE).

...

The command outputs are described with comments below.

Sending AT+GMM
Received[15]->   HE910    OK

This is the modem model (HE910 for GSM/HSPA, or DE910-DUAL for CDMA).



Sending AT+CNUM
Received[37]->   +CNUM: "","19132109122",129    OK

This is the phone number associated with the account activation.

 



Sending AT#CCID
Received[37]->   #CCID: 89014104277578463113    OK

For the HE910 modem, this is the SIM card number. For the DE910-DUAL, this command will return an error.

 



Sending AT+CGDCONT?
Received[42]->   +CGDCONT: 1,"IP","i2gold","",0,0    OK

For the HE910 modem, the second item in double quotes is the APN of the cellular access point. If the SIM is not properly installed or the RediGate is improperly configured, having an incorrect APN will block cellular connections.


Sending AT#MEIDESN?
Received[9]->    #MEIDESN: A1000032B304F6,000000000000,00000000

For the DE-910-DUAL modem, this is the MEID number. For the HE910, this command will return an error.



Sending AT#CIMI
Received[32]->   #CIMI: 310410757846311    OK

This is the IMSI number.



Sending AT#CGSN
Received[32]->   #CGSN: 357164042289457    OK

For the HE910 modem, this is the IMEI number. For the DE910-DUAL modem, this is the MEID number, split with a comma.

 

 


Sending AT+CREG?
Received[20]->   +CREG: 0,1    OK

This is the mode and connection status. The first number should normally be 0 (disable unsolicited).
The second number indicates registration status: 0=not registered, 1=registered/home network, 2=searching, 3=denied, 5=registered/roaming



Sending AT$GPSACP
Received[30]->   $GPSACP: 214127.000,3853.5898N,09447.4488W,0.9,315.4,3,12.1,7.3,3.9,310715,07

This is the GPS data, if a GPS antenna is connected to the modem. Otherwise, it will mostly be just commas with no data. GPS data represents:

UTC time (hhmmss.sss)
Latitude (ddmm.mmmm N/S)
Longitude (dddmm.mmmm E/W)
HDOP, Altitude (meters), Fix (0=invalid, 2=2D fix, 3=3D fix)
Course over ground (degrees), Speed over ground (Km/hr), Speed over ground (knots)
Date of fix (ddmmyy), Number of satellites in use

Sending AT+CSQ
Received[40]->   +CSQ: 28,3    OK

The first number after +CSQ is the signal strength. 99=no signal, 0-31 indicates increasing strength (0 = -113 dBm, 31 = -51 dBm, in steps of 2 dBm per CSQ number).
The second number is the bit error rate (BER). 0=best, 7=worst.

 

 

Repeat? (y/n) nEnter 'n' to not repeat the previous sequence of commands.

 

Then press Enter to exit the modem diagnostics, or  A/  to repeat the last command (AT+CSQ, signal strength).
Or enter an 'AT' modem string to manually send a command to the modem.

Enter  A//  to repeat the last command continuously every 2 seconds.    

 
Enter AT Command (Enter to Exit, 'A/' repeats last, 'A//' repeat every 2 secs) a//

Press Q<enter> to quit repeating
Sending[8]-> AT+CSQ
Received[20]->   +CSQ: 29,2    OK

 

Enter 'q' to stop the repeating AT+CSQ commands. And 'Enter' again to exit the menu.
