The primary purpose of this document is to provide a comprehensive overview of AT commands and their application.

This document aims to help developers and engineers effectively utilize AT commands to control QCC730, enabling seamless communication and data exchange.

## AT command format

There are three types of AT command.

| Type | Format | Role |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Query | AT+&lt;x&gt;? | Get device configuration settings |
| Set | AT+&lt;x&gt;=&lt;…&gt; | Set device configuration settings |
| Execution | AT+&lt;x&gt; | Execute a function |

Note: 
            
- Not all AT commands have the three command types mentioned above.
- Only strings and integer numbers are supported as input parameters in AT commands.
- Angle brackets `<>` designate parameters that can't be omitted.
- Parameter omission isn't supported yet, will be supported later.
- A string included in `""` is treated as a single parameter even if it contains separators such as comma or space.
- Each AT command should not exceed 256 bytes in length.
- Multiple AT commands can be combined in one line with the `;` separator.
- AT commands end with a new-line (CR-LF).

There are four types of message formats as listed in the following table.

| Response message | Description |
| --- | --- |
| OK | Return `OK` if the AT command is processed successfully |
| ERROR | Return `ERROR` if any error occurs when processing the AT command |
| +EVT:… | Return `+EVT:…` if there is any event from AT target |
| +&lt;Command name&gt;:… | Response to the sender, which describes the AT command process results in details |
