LTE-A Module Series
1 Introduction
1.1. Scope of the Document
This document presents the AT command set supported by Quectel LTE-A modules EM12, EG12 and
EG18.
1.2. AT Command Syntax
The "AT" or "at" prefix must be set at the beginning of each command line. To terminate a command line,
<CR> should be entered. 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 commands set supported by EM12/EG12/EG18 is a combination of international standards, such

as 3GPP TS 27.007, 3GPP TS 27.005 and ITU-T recommendation V.25ter as well as the AT Commands
developed by Quectel.
All these AT commands can be split into three categories syntactically: "Basic Syntax", "S Parameter
Syntax", and "Extended Syntax". They are listed as follows:
 Basic Syntax
These AT commands are in the format of "AT<x><n>", or "AT&<x><n>", in which "<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 the default value will be used if it is null.
 S Parameter Syntax
These AT commands are in the format of "ATS<n>=<m>", in which "<n>" is the index of the S register to
set, and "<m>" is the value to assign to it.
 Extended Syntax
The types of these AT commands and the corresponding responses are shown in the following table.
LTE-A Module Series
Table 1: Types of AT Commands and Responses
The command returns the list of parameters and value ranges

Test Command AT+<x>=?
set by the corresponding Write Command or internal processes.
The command returns the currently set value of the parameter or
Read Command AT+<x>?
parameters.
Write Command AT+<x>=<…> The command sets the user-definable parameter values.
Execution The command reads non-variable parameters affected by

AT+<x>
Command internal processes in the UE.
1.3. Supported Character Sets
The AT command interface of EM12/EG12/EG18 uses the GSM character set by default and supports the
following character sets:
 GSM format
 UCS2
 IRA
The character set can be configured and interrogated by executing the AT+CSCS command (3GPP TS
27.007) and it is defined in 3GPP TS 27.005. The character set affects transmission and reception of SMS
and SMS Cell Broadcast Messages, as well as the entry and display of phone book entries text field.
1.4. AT Command Interface
The AT command interface includes two USB ports (USB MODEM port and USB AT port) and one main
UART port. The main UART port and two USB ports support AT command communication and data
transfer.
1.5. Unsolicited Result Code
As an Unsolicited Result Code and a report message, URC is not issued as part of the response related
to an executed AT command. URC is a report message issued by the EM12/EG12/EG18 without being
requested by the TE and it is issued automatically when a certain event occurs. Typical events leading to
URCs are incoming calls (RING), received short messages, high/low voltage alarm, high/low temperature
alarm, etc.
LTE-A Module Series
1.6. Turn off Procedure
It is recommended to execute AT+QPOWD command to power off the module, as it is the safest and best
way. This procedure is realized by letting the module log off from the network and allowing the software to
enter a secure and safe data state before disconnecting the power supply.
After sending AT+QPOWD, please do not enter any other AT commands. When the command is
executed successfully, the module will output message POWERED DOWN and then enter into the
power-off state. In order to avoid data loss, it is suggested to wait for 1s to disconnect the power supply
after the URC POWERED DOWN is outputted. If POWERED DOWN cannot be received within 65s, the
power supply shall be disconnected compulsorily.

G Activates closed user group invocation for this call only
g Deactivates closed user group invocation for this call only
<;> Only required to set up voice call, return to command state
NOTES
1. This command may be aborted generally caused by receiving an ATH command or a character
during execution. The aborting is not impossible happened during some connection establishment
such as handshaking.
2. Parameter "I" and "i" only valid if no "*" or "#" code is within the dial string.
3. See ATX command for setting result code and call monitoring parameters.
4. Responses returned after dialing with ATD:
For voice call, two different responses mode can be determined. MT returns OK immediately either
after dialing was completed or after the call was established. The setting is controlled by AT+COLP.
For factory version, the default is AT+COLP=0, which causes the MT to return OK immediately after
dialing was completed. Otherwise MT will return OK, BUSY, NO DIAL TONE, or NO CARRIER.
5. Using ATD during an active voice call:
 When a user originates a second voice call while there is already an active voice call, the first
call will be automatically put on hold.
 The current states of all calls can be easily checked at any time by using AT+CLCC command.
Example
ATD10086; //Dialing out the party’s number.

9.6. AT+CGDATA Enter Data State
The Write Command causes the MT to perform whatever actions that are necessary to establish
communication between the TE and the network using one or more packet domain PDP types. This may
include performing a PS attach and one or more PDP context activations. Any commands following the
AT+CGDATA command in the AT command line will not be processed by MT.
If the <L2P> parameter value is unacceptable to MT, MT shall return an ERROR or +CME ERROR
response. Otherwise, the MT issues the intermediate result code CONNECT and enters V.250 online data
state. After data transfer is completed, and the layer 2 protocol termination procedure has been
completed successfully, the command state is reentered and the MT returns the final result code OK.

connect the other parties and release the served subscriber’s own connection.
Calls can be put on hold, recovered, released and added to a conversation, and transferred similarly as
defined in 3GPP TS 22.030.
This is based on the GSM/UMTS supplementary services HOLD (Call Hold; refer to 3GPP TS 22.083
clause 2), MPTY (MultiParty; refer to 3GPP TS 22.084) and ECT (Explicit Call Transfer; refer to 3GPP TS

12 Hardware Related Commands

12.1. AT+QPOWD Power off
The command is used to power off the MT. The UE will return OK immediately when the command is
executed. Then the UE will deactivate the network. After it is completed, the UE outputs POWERED
DOWN message and enters into power-off state. The maximum time for unregistering network is 60
seconds. To avoid data loss, the power supply for the module cannot be disconnected before the URC
POWERED DOWN is outputted.

13.8. SMS Character Sets Conversions
In 3GPP TS 23.038 DCS (Data Coding Scheme) defined three kinds of alphabets in SMS, GSM 7-bit
default alphabet, 8 bit data and UCS2 (16-bit). AT+CSMP can set the DCS in text mode (AT+CMGF=1).
In text mode, DCS (Data Coding Scheme) and AT+CSCS determine the way of SMS text input or output.
Table 13: The Way of SMS Text Input or Output
DCS AT+CSCS The Way of SMS Text Input or Output
GSM 7-bit GSM Input or output GSM character sets.
Input or output IRA character sets.

GSM 7-bit IRA Input: UE will convert IRA characters to GSM characters.
Output: UE will convert GSM characters to IRA characters.
Input or output a hex string similar to PDU mode. So only support
characters ‘0’-‘9’ and ‘A’-‘F’.
GSM 7-bit UCS2
Input: UE will convert the UCS2 hex string to GSM characters.
Output: UE will convert the GSM characters to UCS2 hex string.
Ignore the value of AT+CSCS, input or output a hex string similar to
UCS2 -
PDU mode. So only support characters ‘0’-‘9’ and ‘A’-‘F’.
Ignore the value of AT+CSCS, input or output a hex string similar to
8-bit -
PDU mode. So only support characters ‘0’-‘9’ and ‘A’-‘F’.
When DCS=GSM 7-bit, the input or output needs conversion. The detailed conversion tables are shown
as below.

Because the low 8-bit of UCS2 character is the same as the IRA character:
 The conversion table of DCS=GSM 7-bit and AT+CSCS="UCS2" is similar to AT+CSCS="IRA".

 The conversion table of fmt=GSM 7-bit and AT+CSCS="GSM" is similar to AT+CSCS="GSM".
 The conversion table of fmt= GSM 7-bit and AT+CSCS="IRA" is similar to AT+CSCS="IRA".
 The conversion table of fmt=GSM 7-bit and AT+CSCS="UCS2" is similar to AT+CSCS="IRA".
The difference is the way of SMS text input or output. Please refer to Table 14 for more details.
