Operational Modes and Configuration
6.1
Carrier Data Connections
Before a Z50 can be used the first time, it must be configured for connection to the carrier’s cellular
network. The following commands describe how to configure the Z50’s connectivity to the carrier.
ATAPN An Access Point Name (APN) may or may not be required, depending on the application.
ATAPN ATT.NET to set the APN to ATT.NET
ATAPN NULL to disable the APN feature.
ATAPU access point User Name.
ATAPU WorldRadio to set the user name to WorldRadio
ATAPU NULL to disable the user name.
ATAPP access point password.
ATAPP 12345678 to enter the password as 12345678
ATAPP NULL to disable the password.
ATCPIN NULL or set to 0000
ATCPIN 12345678 to enter the PIN as 12345678
ATCPIN NULL to disable the PIN.
6.2
Uplink Data (From Z50)
To transmit data from the Z50, send one or more bytes of data into the serial port of the modem. When
a full packet of data has been collected into the internal buffer of the modem; there is a pause in the
data per ATR3; or the maximum packet size is reached, the modem will automatically connect to the
cellular network, and send the data over the air to the carrier.
6.2.1
Configuring the Modem for Data Transmission
Configure the Hostname or Host IP address to send the data to.
ACHN command sets the host name or the host IP address. The ACHN command parameters are stored
internally in the Z50, so these parameters need only be configured one time. But they may be modified
at any time
ACHN HelloWorld.com to set the destination IP address to the host named HelloWorld.com
ACHN 123.456.789.ABC to set the destination IP address to 123.456.789.ABC
ACPN command sets the host IP port number. The ACPN command parameters are stored internally in
the Z50, so these parameters need only be configured one time. But they may be modified at any time
ACPN 3885 to set the destination port number to 3885
