This application allows the NTC-100 to operate in different modes, providing additional functionality and support for a number of terminal commands specific to this application. These commands can be used locally via the serial interface to send or receive serial data to or from TCP/UDP servers (typically another NTC-100) using EGPRS/Cat-M1/Cat-NB1 connections. The syntax for using the commands in the command line and over SMS differ slightly and are detailed in the following sections. Important Installing another custom application will cause the NetComm Wireless custom application to cease functioning as only one custom application may be used at a time The NTC-100 has 3 modes:
N U M B E R M O D E D E S C R I P T I O N 0 PPP mode In this mode, a Dumb Terminal Emulator (DTE) can get an IP address from the Serial Interface. A PPP connection can be established between the DTE and the NTC-100. 1 PAD/IP mode In this mode, the NTC-100 acts as a Serial/IP gateway device converting asynchronous serial data to IP data across the cellular network. The NTC-100 can be configured as a TCP Client, TCP Server, UDP client or UDP server. 2 PSTN modem mode In this mode, the NTC-100 application creates a tunnel between the modem and a DTE. The DTE can directly access the modem AT commands. Table 4 - NTC-100 modes The NTC-100 modem has 4 PAD modes available:
N U M B E R M O D E D E S C R I P T I O N 0 Disabled In this mode, the Serial to TCP gateway function is disabled and the NTC-100 is in configuration mode. This is the default mode. 1 TCP Client The NTC-100 acts as a TCP client and transfers TCP data between the serial and IP connections. 2 TCP Server The NTC-100 acts as a TCP server and accepts incoming IP connections and transfers data between serial and IP connections. 3 UDP Client The NTC-100 acts as a UDP client and transfers UDP data between the serial and IP connections. 4 UDP Server The NTC-100 acts as a UDP server and transfers UDP data between the serial and IP connections.

NTC-100 User Guide UG01037 v1.0 19 July 2018 60 of 66 NetComm Wireless 2018 FAQs Q: Is the NTC-100 a serial modem?
A: The NTC-100 is able to operate as a serial modem, however it is also so much more. It is also able to perform the following functions:
Creating a TCP server Creating UDP sockets / TCP clients and a TCP server Creating a PING session Creating an FTP session (upload and download files) Connect to a remote SMTP server Connect to a remote HTTP server Email sending / receiving Sending an MMS with one or multiple recipients Q: What are the port settings required for the NTC-100?
A: The NTC-100 uses auto-bauding to determine the current communication port settings. This occurs when the first A or AT is sent to the NTC-100. Generally, a port speed of 115200, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, no parity and hardware flow control should be fine. Garbage text usually indicates that the port speed has been changed. Q: Does the NTC-100 support circuit and packet switched data?
A: The modem inside the NTC-100 supports packet switched and circuit switched communications methods. Q: Can the micro USB port be used to connect to legacy devices?
A: No. The micro USB port requires Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows 7, Windows 8 or Windows 10 operating systems. Q: Why cant I connect an Ethernet (RJ45) cable to the NTC-100?
A: The NTC-100 uses a serial connection through a 10-pin NanoFit connector utilising a pin from this to provide power. It is not suitable for an Ethernet connection. Note Please refer to the RJ45 port pin out diagram in the Technical Data chapter for more information. Q: Why cant I configure customized AT commands from the USB AT interface?
A:
The USB AT interface talks directly to the module and has access only to module AT commands. Customized Application AT commands can be accessed only via the serial port.
