1 Introduction
1.1 Scope of the document
This document presents the AT Command Set for SIMCom SIM800 Series, including SIM800,
SIM800W, SIM800V, SIM800L and SIM800H.

1.2 Related documents

You can visit the SIMCom Website using the following link:
http://www.sim.com

1.3 Conventions and abbreviations

In this document, the GSM engines are referred to as following term:
ME (Mobile Equipment);
MS (Mobile Station);
TA (Terminal Adapter);
DCE (Data Communication Equipment) or facsimile DCE (FAX modem, FAX board);
In application, controlling device controls the GSM engine by sending AT Command via its
serial interface. The controlling device at the other end of the serial line is referred to as
following term:
TE (Terminal Equipment);
DTE (Data Terminal Equipment) or plainly "the application" which is running on an embedded
system;

1.4 AT Command syntax

The "AT" or "at" or aT or Atprefix must be set at the beginning of each Command line. To
terminate a Command line enter <CR>.
Commands are usually followed by a response that includes.
"<CR><LF><response><CR><LF>"
Throughout this document, only the responses are presented, <CR><LF> are omitted
intentionally.
The AT Command set implemented by SIM800 Series is a combination of 3GPP TS 27.005,
3GPP TS 27.007 and ITU-T recommendation V.25ter and the AT commands developed by
SIMCom.
Note: A HEX string such as "00 49 49 49 49 FF FF FF FF" will be sent out through serial
port at the baud rate of 115200 immediately after SIM800 Series is powered on. The string
shall be ignored since it is used for synchronization with PC tool. Only enter AT Command
SIM800 Series_AT Command Manual_V1.01

through serial port after SIM800 Series is powered on and Unsolicited Result Code "RDY"
is received from serial port. If auto-bauding is enabled, the Unsolicited Result Codes
"RDY" and so on are not indicated when you start up the ME, and the "AT" prefix, or
"at" prefix must be set at the beginning of each command line.
All these AT commands can be split into three categories syntactically: "basic", "S parameter",
and "extended". These are as follows:
1.4.1 Basic syntax
These AT commands have the format of "AT<x><n>", or "AT&<x><n>", where "<x>"is the
Command, and "<n>"is/are the argument(s) for that Command. An example of this is "ATE<n>",
which tells the DCE whether received characters should be echoed back to the DTE according to
the value of "<n>". "<n>" is optional and a default will be used if missing.
1.4.2 S Parameter syntax
These AT commands have the format of "ATS<n>=<m>", where "<n>" is the index of the S
register to set, and "<m>"is the value to assign to it. "<m>" is optional; if it is missing, then a
default value is assigned.
1.4.3 Extended Syntax
These commands can operate in several modes, as in the following table:

Table 1: Types of AT commands and responses

Test Command

AT+<x>=?

The mobile equipment returns the list of parameters

and value ranges set with the corresponding Write
Command or by internal processes.

Read Command

AT+<x>?

This command returns the currently set value of the

parameter or parameters.

Write Command

AT+<x>=<>

This command sets the user-definable parameter

values.

Execution Command

AT+<x>

The execution command reads non-variable

parameters affected by internal processes in the GSM
engine.

1.4.4 Combining AT commands on the same Command line

You can enter several AT commands on the same line. In this case, you do not need to type the
"AT" or "at" prefix before every command. Instead, you only need type "AT" or "at" the
beginning of the command line. Please note to use a semicolon as the command delimiter after

SIM800 Series_AT Command Manual_V1.01

17

2013-07-23

Smart Machine Smart Decision

an extended command; in basic syntax or S parameter syntax, the semicolon need not enter, for
example: ATE1Q0S0=1S3=13V1X4;+IFC=0,0;+IPR=115200;&W.
The Command line buffer can accept a maximum of 556 characters (counted from the first
command without AT or at prefix). If the characters entered exceeded this number then none
of the Command will executed and TA will return "ERROR".
1.4.5 Entering successive AT commands on separate lines
When you need to enter a series of AT commands on separate lines, please Note that you need to
wait the final response (for example OK, CME error, CMS error) of last AT Command you
entered before you enter the next AT Command.

1.5 Supported character sets

The SIM800 Series AT Command interface defaults to the IRA character set. The SIM800 Series
supports the following character sets:
GSM format
UCS2
HEX
IRA
PCCP
PCDN
8859-1
The character set can be set and interrogated using the "AT+CSCS" Command (3GPP TS
27.007). The character set is defined in GSM specification 3GPP TS 27.005.
The character set affects transmission and reception of SMS and SMS Cell Broadcast messages,
the entry and display of phone book entries text field and SIM Application Toolkit alpha strings.

1.6 Flow control

Flow control is very important for correct communication between the GSM engine and DTE.
For in the case such as a data or fax call, the sending device is transferring data faster than the
receiving side is ready to accept. When the receiving buffer reaches its capacity, the receiving
device should be capable to cause the sending device to pause until it catches up.
There are basically two approaches to achieve data flow control: software flow control and
hardware flow control. SIM800 Series support both two kinds of flow control.
In Multiplex mode, it is recommended to use the hardware flow control.
1.6.1 Software flow control (XON/XOFF flow control)
Software flow control sends different characters to stop (XOFF, decimal 19) and resume (XON,
decimal 17) data flow. It is quite useful in some applications that only use three wires on the
serial interface.
SIM800 Series_AT Command Manual_V1.01

18

2013-07-23

Smart Machine Smart Decision

The default flow control approach of SIM800 Series is hardware flow control (RTS/CTS flow
control), to enable software flow control in the DTE interface and within GSM engine, type the
following AT Command:
AT+IFC=1, 1
This setting is stored volatile, for use after restart, AT+IFC=1, 1 should be stored to the user
profile with AT&W.
NOTE:
The AT commands listed in the table of AT&W chapter should be stored to user profile with
AT&W for use after restart. Most other AT commands in V.25, 3GPP TS 27.005, 3GPP TS
27.007,GPRS will store parameters automatically and can be used after module restart.
Ensure that any communications software package (e.g. Hyper terminal) uses software flow
control.
NOTE:
Software Flow control should not be used for data calls where binary data will be transmitted or
received (e.g. TCP/IP) as the DTE interface may interpret binary data as flow control characters.
1.6.2 Hardware flow control (RTS/CTS flow control)
Hardware flow control achieves the data flow control by controlling the RTS/CTS line. When the
data transfer should be suspended, the CTS line is set inactive until the transfer from the
receiving buffer has completed. When the receiving buffer is ok to receive more data, CTS goes
active once again.
To achieve hardware flow control, ensure that the RTS/CTS lines are present on your application
platform.

1.7 Definitions
1.7.1 Parameter Saving Mode
For the purposes of the present document, the following syntactical definitions apply:
z NO_SAVE: The parameter of the current AT command will be lost if module is rebooted.
z AUTO_SAVE: The parameter of the current AT command will be kept in NVRAM
automatically, and it won't be lost if module is rebooted.
z AT&W_SAVE: The parameter of the current AT command will be kept in NVRAM by
sending the command of AT&W.
If one AT command has not the item of Parameter Saving Mode, it means this AT command
doesnt save the parameter or havent parameter.

1.7.2 Max Response Time

Max response time is estimated maximum time to get response, the unit is seconds.
If one AT command has not the item of Max Response Time, it means this AT command
doesnt care the response time.

Responses returned after dialing with ATD
For voice call two different responses mode can be determined. TA returns
"OK" immediately either after dialing was completed or after the call is
established. The setting is controlled by AT+COLP. Factory default is
AT+COLP=0, this cause the TA returns "OK" immediately after dialing
was completed, otherwise TA will returns "OK", "BUSY", "NO DIAL
TONE", "NO CARRIER".

Factory setting is AT+IPR=0auto-bauding.

2.2.41.1 Auto-bauding
Synchronization between DTE and DCE ensure that DTE and DCE are correctly synchronized and
the baud rate used by the DTE is detected by the DCE (= ME). To allow the baud rate to be
synchronized, simply issue an "AT" string. This is necessary when you start up the module while
auto-bauding is enabled. It is recommended to wait 3 to 5 seconds before sending the first AT
character. Otherwise undefined characters might be returned.
If you want to use auto-bauding and auto-answer at the same time, you can easily enable the
DTE-DCE synchronization, when you activate auto-bauding first and then configure the
auto-answer mode.
Restrictions on auto-bauding operation
The serial interface has to be operated at 8 data bits, no parity and 1 stop bit (factory setting).
Only the strings "AT" or "At" or "aT" or "at" can be detected when auto-bauding is enabled.
AT+IPR=0 setting to auto-bauding will take effect after module resets.
Unsolicited Result Codes that may be issued before the ME detects the new baud rate (by
receiving the first AT Command string) will be sent at the previously detected baud rate.The

2013-07-23

Smart Machine Smart Decision

Unsolicited Result Codes "RDY" and so on are not indicated when you start up the ME while
auto-bauding is enabled.
It is not recommended to switch to auto-bauding from a baud rate that cannot be detected by the
auto-bauding mechanism (e.g. 300 baud). Responses to +IPR=0 and any commands on the same
line might be corrupted.
Auto-bauding and baud rate after restart
The most recently detected baud rate can not be stored when module is powered down.

Reference

Note
This command allows establishment of a TCP/UDP connection only when
the state is IP INITIAL or IP STATUS when it is in single state. In
multi-IP state, the state is in IP STATUS only. So it is necessary to process
"AT+CIPSHUT" before user establishes a TCP/UDP connection with this
command when the state is not IP INITIAL or IP STATUS.
When module is in multi-IP state, before this command is executed, it is
necessary to process "AT+CSTT, AT+CIICR, AT+CIFSR".

*Quality of Service (QOS) is a special parameter of a CID which consists of several parameters
itself.
The QOS consists of
The precedence class
The delay class
The reliability class
The peak throughput class
The mean throughput class
And is decided in "requested QOS and "minimum acceptable QOS.
All parameters of the QOS are initiated by default value (=0) except the reliability class is 3. To
define a QOS use the AT+CGQREQ or AT+CGQMIN Command.
Overwrite the precedence class of
QOS of CID 1 and sets the QOS of

Note: If the mobile is NOT attached by AT+CGATT=1 and the CID is NOT activated before

Some providers require using an APN to establish a GPRS connection. So if user uses the
Microsoft Windows Dial-Up Network and ATD*9 to connect to GPRS, user must provide the
context definition as part of the modem definition (Modem properties/Connection/Advanced
/Extra settings.) As an alternative, user can define and activate the context in a terminal program
(e.g. Microsoft HyperTerminal) and then use the Dial-Up Network to send only the ATD
Command.
