Once a Parameter is changed, the modem will begin using the new parameter and the new
parameter is saved to non-volatile.
5.4 Reading a Parameter
To read the value of a particular setting, issue the command, with no parameter. The modem
will return the value followed by an “OK”. The modem’s OK response is:
The value in ASCII decimal format.
A <CR> <LF> (<CD> = ASCII 0D, <LF> = ASCII 0A).
An “O”, “K”, <CR>, and <LF> sequence.
For example, if the user enters the command to read the M7’s modem address and its address
was 1234, the user would issue the following command:
ATDT <cr>
and the modem will respond with:
1234 < CR > < LF > OK < CR > < LF >
To get on-line help with a command, enter the command and put a question mark in for the
parameter. For example, to see what the ATDT command is for, type
ATDT ? . The modem will
respond by listing a brief description of the command. To see a list of all commands, type HELP .

You can use Radio Manager in lieu of learning all of the M7’s commands and programming
protocol. In most situations, it is very useful for configuring the M7. There are certain very

will be the easiest way to setup your radio.
