Foreword
This European Telecommunication Standard (ETS) has been produced by the Special Mobile Group
(SMG) of the European Telecommunications Standards Institute (ETSI).
This ETS specifies the AT command for terminal equipments being used within the digital cellular
telecommunications system.
The contents of this ETS is subject to continuing work within SMG and may change following formal SMG
approval. Should SMG modify the contents of this ETS, it will be resubmitted for OAP by ETSI with an
identifying change of release date and an increase in version number as follows:
Version 5.x.y
where:
5 indicates GSM Phase 2+ Release 1996;
x the second digit is incremented for all other types of changes, i.e. technical enhancements,
corrections, updates, etc.
y the third digit is incremented when editorial only changes have been incorporated in the
specification.
Transposition dates
Date of adoption of this ETS: 18 December 1998
Date of latest announcement of this ETS (doa): 31 March 1999
Date of latest publication of new National Standard
or endorsement of this ETS (dop/e): 30 September 1999
Date of withdrawal of any conflicting National Standard (dow): 30 September 1999
Introduction
The present document includes some references to features which are not part of the original Phase 2+
release of the GSM Technical specifications. All subclauses and text which were changed as a result of
these features contain a marker (see table below) relevant to the particular feature.
The following table lists all new features that were introduced to this document after version 5.4.0.
Changes that were made as corrections to existing featurers are not listed in this table.
NOTE: following a decision made at ETSI SMG #25 requiring that all specifications containing
a release 97 workitem be release as a version 6.0.0. Consequently, new release 97
features approved at or after ETSI SMG #25 are found only in the version 6.x.y of the
present document.

1 Scope
This European Telecommunication Standard (ETS) specifies a profile of AT commands and recommends
that this profile be used for controlling Mobile Equipment (ME) functions and GSM network services from
a Terminal Equipment (TE) through Terminal Adaptor (TA). The command prefix +C is reserved for Digital
Cellular in ITU-T Recommendation V.25ter [14]. This ETS has also the syntax details used to construct
these extended GSM commands. Commands from ITU-T Recommendation V.25ter [14] and existing
digital cellular standards (TIA IS-99 [15] and TIA IS-135 [16]) are used whenever applicable. Some of the
new commands are defined such way that they can be easily applied to ME of networks other than GSM.
ITU-T T.31 [11] and T.32 [12] fax AT commands may be used for GSM fax transmission from TE. GSM
Short Message Service AT commands are defined in GSM 07.05 [24]. GPRS AT commands are defined
in GSM 07.60 [34].This ETS assumes an abstract architecture comprising a TE (e.g. a computer) and a
ME interfaced by a TA (see figure 1). The span of control of the defined commands should allow to handle
any physical implementation that this abstract architecture may lead to:
- TA, ME and TE as three separate entities;
- TA integrated under the ME cover, and the TE implemented as a separate entity;
- TA integrated under the TE cover, and the ME implemented as a separate entity;
- TA and ME integrated under the TE cover as a single entity.
The commands described in this ETS may be observed on the link between the TE and the TA. However,
most of the commands retrieve information about the ME, not about the TA.

USER & APPLICATIONS NETWORK
Figure 1: Setup
Interface between TE and TA is intended to operate over existing serial (ITU-T Recommendation V.24)
cables, infrared link, and all link types with similar behaviour. For correct operation many of the defined
commands require eight bit data and therefore it is recommended that TE-TA link is set to eight bits/ byte
mode. (For infrared operation implementation refer informative references IrDA. For embedding AT
commands and data during on-line data state refer TIA-617/ITU-T V.80.) Interface between TA and ME is
dependent on the interface in the ME.
