| .SH NAME |
| ModemManager \- modem management daemon |
| .SH SYNOPSIS |
| .B ModemManager [\-\-version] | [\-\-help] |
| .PP |
| .B ModemManager [\-\-debug] [\-\-log\-level=<level>] [\-\-log\-file=<filename>] [\-\-timestamps] [\-\-relative\-timestamps] |
| .SH DESCRIPTION |
| The ModemManager daemon provides a unified high level API |
| for communicating with (mobile broadband) modems. While the basic commands are |
| standardized, the more advanced operations (like signal quality monitoring |
| while connected) varies a lot. |
| .TP |
| ModemManager is a system daemon and is not meant to be used directly from the |
| command line. |
| .SH OPTIONS |
| The following options are supported: |
| .TP |
| .I "\-\-version" |
| Print the ModemManager software version and exit. |
| .TP |
| .I "\-\-help" |
| Print ModemManager's available options and exit. |
| .TP |
| .I "\-\-debug" |
| Runs ModemManager with "DEBUG" log level and without daemonizing. This is useful |
| for debugging, as it directs log output to the controlling terminal in addition to |
| syslog. |
| .TP |
| .I "\-\-log\-level=<level>" |
| Sets how much information ModemManager sends to the log destination (usually |
| syslog's "daemon" facility). By default, only informational, warning, and error |
| messages are logged. Given level must be one of "ERR", "WARN", "INFO" or "DEBUG". |
| .TP |
| .I "\-\-log\-file=<filename>" |
| Specify location of the file where ModemManager will dump its log messages, |
| instead of syslog. |
| .TP |
| .I "\-\-timestamps" |
| Include absolute timestamps in the log output. |
| .TP |
| .I "\-\-relative-timestamps" |
| Include timestamps, relative to the start time of the daemon, in the log output. |
