- AT&F, not AT+F, is a command to reset the modem to the factory
- defaults.
-
- There is an identification command, " In ", where the modem reports
- to the DTE the requested result according to the command parameter:
- I0 = Reports product code (e.g., "14400").
- I1 = Reports precomputed checksum performed on ROM
- (e.g., "007")
- I2 = Computes checksum and compares it with value stored in ROM,
- Reports result as OK or ERROR
- I3 = Reports:
- firmware revision (VX.XXX)
- model code (A= 64k US; B=Reserved; C= 128k US;
- D= 128k W-Class; E=64k W-Class)
- interface type (S=serial, P=parallel), and
- MCU model (29=C29; 39=C39) (e.g., "V1.297-CS29")
- I4 = Reports OEM defined identifier string.
-
- You may, therefore, try I4.
