AS (Active scan for network environment data)
Scans for mobile cells in the vicinity and returns information about the cells in the service area of the
device. When you run the command, the cell module waits until all other communication is idle and
then performs the scan.
The information that can be reported by this command varies based on the network technology of the
module that you are using.
In both AT and API mode the command returns line-based records mapping key-value pairs. The
record for the serving cell begins with the capital letter S, and keys for the fields are MCC, MNC, Area,
CID, and Signal. Each line describes a particular cell and only those values determined during a single
scan are reported.
