2.6  Placing a Voice call 

Before a voice call can be placed, it is recommended to check if the mobile is registered on a network 
(see par. 2.5.3.1) and if the signal strength is enough to ensure a call can be made. 

2.6.1  Voice call device set up 

 

2.6.1.1   Set the device in voice mode 

  Send command  

AT+FCLASS=8<cr>

 

 wait 

for 

OK

 

response 

NOTE

: This command may be omitted if the modifier ";" is added at the end of the ATD command 

after the number to be dialed.  
 

2.6.1.2   Set the desired audio path active 

The GE863-GPS has two different audio paths:   

 

internal microphone/ear (MT) 

 

external microphone/ear (HF) 

Usually the internal path is used for a handset function, while the external is used for handsfree 
function. There are two way to switch between these two paths: 

  SOFTWARE: by using the command AT#CAP= <n> (with n=1 OR n=2) 

  HARDWARE: by setting AT#CAP=0 and setting the AXE input high (internal MT) or low 

(external HF). 

If only one path is needed, then it is preferable to use the internal one (MT). 

 

TIP: when Hardware control is not needed AXE pin can be left unconnected. 

 

TIP: the audio paths can be switched also during a call in both ways. 

 

  Send command  

AT#CAP=<n><cr>

 

where: 

<n> = 0  for HARDWARE control with AXE input 
<n> = 1  for external HF path (regardless of the AXE input status) 
<n> = 2  for internal MT path (regardless of the AXE input status) 
 

 wait 

for 

OK

 

response
