Chapter 13 – Specific AT Commands
Multi-Tech Systems, Inc. Wireless GSM/GPRS AT Commands (Document Number S000293I) 117
Play Tone +WTONE
Description: This command allows a tone to be played on the current speaker or on the buzzer. Frequency, gain and
duration can be set.
Values: <mode>
0 Stop playing.
1 Play a tone
<dest> Sets the destination (mandatory if <mode>=1)
1 Speaker
2 Buzzer
<freq> Sets tone frequency (in Hz) (mandatory if <mode>=1).
<freq2> Sets the 2
nd
tone frequency (in Hz) (mandatory if <mode>=1). Available with speaker only.
If <dest>=1 speaker:
Range is 1 Hz to 3999 Hz
If <dest>=2 buzzer:
Range is between 1 Hz and 50000 Hz.
<gain> Sets the tone gain for the <freq>. The default is 9.
<gain2> Sets the tone gain for the <freq2>. The default is 9.
Range of values is 0 to 15
<gain> Speaker (db) Buzzer (db)
0 0 -0.25
1 -0.5 -0.5
2 -1 -1
3 -1.5 -1.5
4 -2 -2
5 -3 -3
6 -6 -6
7 -9 -9
8 -12 -12
9 -15 -15
10 -18 -18
11 -24 -24
12 -30 -30
13 -36 -40
14 -42 -infinite
15 -infinite -infinite
<duration> Sets tone duration (unit of 100 ms).
Range is 0 to 50. Default 0. 1 -> 0,1 s., 50 -> 5 s.)
When this <duration>=0, the duration is infinite, and the tone can be stopped by
AT+WTONE=0.
Note: The frequency <freq2> and gain <gain2> are allowed for the speaker only.
Caution: Hardware can only generate the following frequencies:
Freq = (13 000 000 / (N * 64))
N: Interger value in the recommended range 1 to 2048.
With N=1, the frequency 203 125 Hz is generated.
With N=2048, the frequency 99.18 Hz is generated.
Some noise problems have been detected if the frequency is below 100 Hz.
The lowest frequency possible is 12 Hz.
