ATC-2000WF CommandReference
(Version 2.0)
1.0 Configuration
1.1 Entering Command Mode
Upon power up, the device will be in data mode. To
enter command mode,exactlythe three characters $$$
must be sent. The device will respond with CMD.
While in commandmode, the device will acceptASCII
bytesascommands.Toexitcommand mode, send
exit<cr>. The device will respond with “EXIT”.
Parameters,suchasthe SSID, channel, IPaddress,
Serial Port settings,andallothersettingscan be
viewed and configured in command mode. ASCII
characters can be sent through aterminal emulator
connectedto the UART or via Telnet. When using the
UART communicationssettings should match the
settings used when ATC-2000WF connects,
for example: the default is 9600 baudrate ,8 bits, No
Parity,1stop bit, and hardware flow control
disabled.
Run your favorite terminal emulator, You can find on
CD/tool/pcommlite.
Type $$$ on your terminal emulator.You should see
“CMD”returned to you. This will verifythat yourcable
and comm. settings are correct. Mostvalid commands
will returnan “AOK”,response, and invalid ones will
return an”ERR”description.
To exit command mode, type exit <cr>.
NOTE: Youcan entercommand mode locallyoverthe
serial port at anytime when not connected, and also
when connected if the appropriatesettings are enabled.
Remote configuration using ADHOC mode
Using adhoc mode to configure the device eliminates
the need forthe module to be associated with a
networkaccesspoint. In adhocmode the module
createsit own “on demand”networkthat you can
connect to via your computer likeyou would to any
other network.
To enable adhocmode via hardware set innerSW1
DIP1 to ON(Default isOFF).(You should open the
ATC-2000WF metal case).The module will creates an
adhoc networkwith the following
SSID: WiFly-GSX-XXwhere XX is the final two bytesof
the devicesMAC address
Channel: 1
DHCP: OFF
IP address: 169.254.1.1
Netmask: 255.255.0.0
From yourcomputer, connect to the WiFly-GSX-XX
network. This is an open networkwhich does
not requirea passphrase or pass key. Note: currently
the WiFlyonlysupports OPEN mode for
creatingadhoc networks.
NOTE: It maytake a couple of minutes for Auto IP in
Windowsto assign an IPaddress and connect
to the network. You can checkIPaddressof your
Windowscomputer byrunning the ipconfig
command in the command window. If connected,this
command will show you the IPaddress and net
maskfor your computer.
The IPaddressassigned byAuto IPmust be on the
subnet 169.254.1.X otherwise the WiFlyGSX
module will not be accessible.
NOTE: If your machine hasbotha wireless and wired
interface hardware you will need to disable the
wired LAN interfacehardware before connecting to the
adhocnetwork. If the wired LAN is enabled
the computerwillassign anIP addressthat is not on
the samesubnet asthe WiFlymodule.
Once connected and you have a good IPaddress,
telnet into the WiFlymodule on port 2000
telnet 169.254.1.1 2000
You should see the response “*HELLO*”
You can now enter command mode and configure the
module.

2.1 Command Syntax
Commandsbegin with akeyword, and have optional
additionalparameters,generallyspace delimited.
Commandsand options are case sensitive. Hexinput
data can be upper or lowercase. String textdata, such
as SSID is also case sensitive.
The firstcommand is fullydecoded and must be
complete. Other command parameters can be shorted
byusing onlythe firstcharacter.
For example,
setuart baudrate 115200 is valid,
setuart b 115200 is also valid,
setu b 115200 is alsovalid, however,
