issuing an ATFR and an ATFT command.  The frequency will 
automatically be saved in non-volatile memory (flash) for this 
current channel number.

 

ATHP 

Channel Number 

– Select current radio channel number.  The 

channel number is stored in EEPROM memory.  

Range: 1 - 6  

1  

ATIC 

Read Current Draw

 Read the current draw in mA.  Accuracy is 

within 20% of actual current draw.  

 

Range: 0-9999 

N/A 

ATL 

Enable/Disable the LEDs

 

– 1 = LEDs always off.   This reduces 

some power consumption.  0 = LED operate normally. 

 

0 or 1 

ATMT 

Protocol Select 

–  The over-the-air communication protocol.  

0=Packetized mode, 5=DART  

Range: 0 or 5 

ATNB 

 

Parity 

– Selects parity format. Settings 0-4 transfer 8-bits over 

antenna port and generate the parity bit on the RF receiving side.  

Range: 0 

– 5  

0 = none  
1 = Odd  
2 = Even  
3 = Mark (1) 
4 = Space (0)  

0  

ATR3 

Serial Port Time Out 

– The time in milliseconds for the serial 

port to time out. When data is entering the serial port, and this 
amo0unt of time passes with no more data, the RV-M8-UC will 

begin to transmit the data over the air. 

 

Range: 1 - 999

 

20 

20mS is the 

default. 

ATR8 

Frequency Offset. 

 Used to set the radio on the center of the radio 

channel.  

 

Range: -500 to 
+500 

0

**

 

ATRQ 

Receiver Signal Level  

– Reads the Receiver Signal strength 

this instant, and returns the level in dBm.  

Range: -40 to –
130 (dBm)  

ATRS 

 

RSSI 

(Receive Signal Strength Indicator) – Returns the signal 

level of last received packet.  The reading is in dBm.  Usable for 
relative comparison of signals, but absolute value is within10dB 

at -90dBm.   

No parameters. 

Returns a number : 
-50 to –140 (dBm) 

varies by model.  

none  

ATSL 

 

Serial Number  

– Reads and returns a unique serial number for 

thjs unit.  

Read Only  

1 - 999999999

 

unique  

ATSM 

LPM Operation Enable  

– When set to 1, the DTR input line 

controls the M8’s low-power operation.  When set to 0, the RV-
M8-UC  will not go into LPM, regardless of the state of the DTR 
pin.  When set to 2, the modem is forced into a low-power 

mode, disabling the receiver.   

Range: 0, 1, 2 

ATST 

Statistics 

 

Show the unit’s operational statistics. See Statistics 

section of user manual. 

 

0, 1,2, 3, 4, or 5 

None 

ATTD 

 

Transmit Test Data 

– When issued, the modem will begin 

transmitting data.  The type of data sent is set in the parameter.   
Entering a <CR> will terminate the transmission.  

0 = Go back to normal 
1 = Random 
3 = 1010… at ¼ baud rate 
4 = TX all 0s 
5 = TX all 1s 
6 = Test Points ON 
7 = Transmit CW  
8 = Transmit 1010101… 

ATTE 

Read product temperature 

– 

Read the internal temperature of 

the unit’s circuit board in degrees Celsius. 

 

-40 to +99 

ATVB 

Read DC input Voltage

– Returns the DC input voltage reading, 

in mV  (12500 = 12.5VDC input).  

None 

none 

ATVR 

Firmware Version 

– Returns firmware version currently loaded 

on the module.  

Read Only, 3 
characters 

none  

AT&F 

Restore Factory

 

– Restore the factory default values.  This 

command will not erase the calibration values.  After this 
command executes, the modem will still be in the CONFIG mode.
