By viewing the Network Status Register (S-Register 57) with the
AT&V
command or the
ATS57?
command. This is the
recommended method, because viewing S-Register 57 shows other
useful information, as shown in Figure 2-3

ATS57?
160
OK
A value of 128 (bit 7 on) or higher indicates that the modem acquired
a channel. If auto-registration at power on (
AT\R4
) is specified, then
the value is 160 (bits 5 and 7 on) or 161 (bit 0 also on) indicating that
it completed registration.
If the DART cannot acquire a channel, move the antenna to a better
location. To determine the best location for the antenna you need some
indication of received signal strength. This is given by the RSSI; one of
the radio resource values. View RSSI with the
ATS102?
or the
AT&V+
command.
Figure 2-4 is a snapshot of the CDPD channel at a specific point in time.
View this data several times to see if the modem is staying on a single
channel (S-Register 100) or continues to search. If the value in
S-Register 101 is a zero, then the search is continuing.

If the modem cannot acquire a usable channel (S-Register 101 = 1) after
a few minutes there are several possible causes:
•
The signal strength is too weak
•
The cell is not currently CDPD capable (check with your cellular
carrier)
•
The modem has an incorrect channel restriction configuration. Use
the
AT&V
command to check the
\Jn
setting
•
The side setting is wrong. Use the
AT&V
command to check the
\Nn
setting
•
There is an interference problem
•
The modem is faulty
