Modem diagnostics

You can verify that your modem is working properly by using the diagnostics that are available through the Phone and Modem Options icon in Control Panel. (For more information on this procedure, see Test a modem.)

When you query a modem, Windows tries the following commands and displays the results.

Command Response

AT+FCLASS=?

Fax classes supported by the modem, if any.

AT#CLS=?

Shows whether the modem supports the Rockwell voice command set.

ATIn

Displays manufacturer's information for n = 1 through 7. This provides information such as the port speed, the result of a checksum test, and the model information. Check the manufacturer's documentation for the expected results.

AT+GCI?

AT+GCI=?

You can also record a log of commands as they are sent to the modem by communication programs or the operating system. For more information, see Log and view modem commands.
