How to run AT command on Sierra Wireless Modems

Post by deeperblue »

Hi,

I know we need a M.2 to USB adapter to connect a Sierra Wireless Modem EM7511 to a PC, and I know what AT command I want to run. What I don't know is, after the modem is connected to my PC, how do I run AT command?

I mean, for example, for Netgear M1/M5 router, I know I can telnet to its 5510 port and then I can run AT command. But when a Sierara Wireless Modem is connected to my PC, what command or what tool do I use to connect to it to run AT command? I found a website https://m2msupport.net/m2msupport/tutor ... s-modules/ that could allow to install a software to run AT command, but is there a way just connect via well-known tools like Putty, telnet, etc?

Thanks!

Yep, Putty can do it or easier to use this tool: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1_XRHNh ... share_link

Look at your windows device manager and find the AT Command port loaded in the USB ports or communication ports (Windows can be goofy with it)

You'll want to connect via Serial COM# port. Once connected you may want to turn on echo, otherwise you may not see what you are typing.
