AT V1.0
By Joseph Sheppard, Sysop, The Ledge PCBoard - (818) 352-3620



DESCRIPTION


AT.EXE allows users to send commands to the modems connected to COM1: or
COM2: from the DOS command prompt, or from batch files.

AT.EXE is written with Turbo Pascal 5.0 using communication routines
from Prokit, (c) Samuel Smith.


HOW IT WORKS


To send a command to the modem, the user runs AT.EXE by typing AT at the
DOS command prompt followed by the command to be sent to the modem, and
the port the modem is connected to.

The default port is COM1, so if your modem is attached to COM1 then you
don't need to specify a port.

If your modem is connected to COM2 then you will always need to follow
the command to be sent with the number 2.


EXAMPLES


AT H1 (Take modem connected to COM1 off the hook)

AT H1M0 2 (Take modem connected to COM2 off hook and turn-off
speaker)

AT M1DT18183523620 (Tell modem connected to COM1 to dial
1-818-352-3620)

AT Z 2 (Perform a reset on the modem connected to COM2)



USES


I wrote this as a utility to take my modem off the hook during BBS mail
runs so that callers wouldn't ring the line during the event. I'm sure
there are other uses for it, and would be interested in hearing from
users who find new ways to use this program.
