In the sample that you downloaded, the modem that was used supports "AT" modem commands. This is something that is part of the modem. In this case, a US Robotics modem was used. Do you know if your GPRS Wavecom modem supports "AT" commands? Here is what I mean, here is a reference: http://michaelgellis.tripod.com/modem.html Then PLC sent "AT" commands to the modem to take remote control of it.

Take a look here: http://www.plcdev.com/book/export/html/431 For an explanation of R, ST, and B registers in a 500 series PLC. I am sure someone else in the forums has a better resource somewhere else.
