Application Parameters 

 

GSM/GPRS Network Settings: 

 

GPRS Access Point Address (APAD) 

It is necessary to set the access point network (APN) details for the specific network or 
GPRS service provider being used.  This information should be supplied by your GSM 
Network Operator or Service Provider.  A list of GPRS access point addresses, usernames 
and passwords for most GSM operators can be found at 

http://www.taniwha.org.uk/gprs.html

 

 

GPRS Access Point Username (APUN) 

See above. 
 

GPRS Access Point Password (APPW) 

See above. 

 

 
Application Server Settings: 

 

TCP Host IP Address (IPAD) 

When using GPRS mode, the host server must provide a TCP socket with a static (public) 
IP address.  This address should be entered (without the port number).  Alternatively, a 
hostname can be accepted for the IPAD parameter, in which case the GPRS network 
service provider will provide the DNS look-up to resolve the hostname to an IP address.  
Maximum hostname length is 64 characters. 
 

NOTE: IP address should be entered 

WITHOUT LEADING ZEROS

 

 

TCP Host Port Number (PORT) 

The port number for the TCP host, as required for GPRS mode.   
 

Communication Mode (MODE) 

This command specifies the required GSM communication mode, as described in the table 
below: 

 

<mode> 

Communication method 

RESERVED 

RESERVED 

RESERVED 

GPRS (TCP) 

GPRS (UDP) 

RESERVED 

 

TCP Acknowledgment Timeout (TCPT) 

This parameter specifies the maximum number of seconds that the AT200 device will wait 
for the host to send the ACK code in response to sending a report.  The default value is 30 
seconds.  A value of zero will disable the acknowledgment feature. 

 
Reporting Level (REPL) 

This parameter is a bitfield (3 bytes) which can be used to enable/disable certain types of 
report based on their reason code.  The bits are defined to match the reason bytes in the 
appropriate protocol, set the appropriate bit to enable reports based on the associated 
reason.  Note there are differences between protocols, please refer to specific protocol 
documentation for details. 
 
A value of 16777215 will enable all reports.
