AT$CB=0011223344,1

OK

RX=AA BB CC DD

This sends a Sigfox frame containing { 0xAA : 0xBB : 0x12

: 0x34 } without waiting for a response telegram.

AT$CB=0xAA,1

OK

The ‘CB’ command sends out a continuous pattern of bits,

in this case 0xAA = 0b10101010.

AT$P=1

OK

This transitions the device into sleep mode. Out−of−band

transmissions will still be triggered. The UART is powered

down. The device can be woken up by a low level on the

UART signal, i.e. by sending break.

Command

Name

Description

AT

Dummy Command

Just returns ‘OK’ and does nothing else. Can be used to check

communication.

AT$SB=bit[,bit]

Send Bit

Send a bit status (0 or 1). Optional bit flag indicates if AX−SFAZ

should receive a downlink frame.

AT$SF=frame[,bit]

Send Frame

Send payload data, 1 to 12 bytes. Optional bit flag indicates if

AX−SFAZ should receive a downlink frame.

AT$SO

Manually send out of band

message

Send the out−of−band message.

AT$TR?

Get the transmit repeat

Returns the number of transmit repeats. Default: 2

AT$TR=?

Get transmit range

Returns the allowed range of transmit repeats.

AT$TR=uint

Get transmit repeat

Sets the transmit repeat.

ATSuint?

Get Register

Query a specific configuration register’s value. See chapter

“Registers” for a list of registers.

ATSuint=uint

Set Register

Change a configuration register.

ATSuint=?

Get Register Range

Returns the allowed range of transmit repeats.

AT$IF=uint

Set TX Frequency

Set the output carrier macro channel for Sigfox frames.

AT$IF?

Get TX Frequency

Get the currently chosen TX frequency.

AT$DR=uint

Set RX Frequency

Set the reception carrier macro channel for Sigfox frames.

AT$DR?

Get RX Frequency

Get the currently chosen RX frequency.

AT$CW=uint,bit[,uint_opt]

Continuous Wave

To run emission tests for Sigfox certification it is necessary to send a

continuous wave, i.e. just the base frequency without any modula-

tion. Parameters:

Name

Range

Description

Frequency

800000000−

Continuous wave frequency in Hz.

999999999, 0 Use 902200000 for Sigfox or 0 to

keep previous frequency.

Mode

0, 1

Enable or disable carrier wave.

Power

24

dBm of signal | Default: 24

AT$CB=uint_opt,bit

Test Mode: TX constant byte

For emission testing it is useful to send a specific bit pattern. The

first parameter specifies the byte to send. Use ‘−1’ for a

(pseudo−)random pattern. Parameters:

Name

Range

Decsription

Pattern

0−255, −1

Byte to send. Use ‘−1’ for a

(pseudo−)random pattern.

Mode

0, 1

Enable or disable pattern test mode.

AT$RC

Reset Macrochannel

This command resets the Macrochannel. Subsequent transmit

operations (AT$SO, AT$SB, AT$SF) may pause up to 20 s to ensure

compliance

AT$T?

Get Temperature

Celsius.
