Multiplexing: Several sockets can be operating at once. The +WIPDATA command allows to
temporarily identify the UART in data mode with a given socket. The data written on UART is
transferred through the socket. The data which arrives on the socket can be read from the UART. In
AT mode, the host receives an unsolicited event when the data arrives on the socket.
Multiple UARTs: There can be several UARTs simultaneously active at once, and different UARTs
can map a different socket simultaneously. However, you cannot map a single socket on several
UARTs simultaneously.
Socket Identification
Sockets are identified by a pair of numbers: the first one identifies the protocol; the second one
identifies a given socket of this protocol.
Possible Protocols
The possible protocols are:
• 1 = UDP
• 2 = TCP in connect mode (Client)
• 3 = TCP in listen mode (Server)
• 4 = FTP
Two pairs with a different protocol number but the same index identify two distinct sockets.
Example: Both 1,7 and 2,7 are valid identifiers simultaneously; the former identifies a UDP socket
and the later, a TCP connected socket.
Number of Sockets
The number of sockets per protocol is limited.
• UDP: 8 sockets
• TCP Clients: 8 sockets
• TCP Servers: 4 sockets
