Revise documentation for AT+COPS=1,..

[Achim Kraus]

Reading an other ticket I found a interesting way using "AT+COPS":

AT+COPS=1,2,"26203",7

It adds the "Act" (Mode). What makes me wonder, this is not compliant to the documentation for the set command but for the test command.

I also read an answer to some other ticket, which mentions, that providing the mode (AcT 7 or 9) doesn't work with COPS.

But to my very surprise, using mfw 1.3.5, it seems to work!

If send to the modem, you don't get an error.

If the modem is configured to support both, NB-IoT and LTE-M, the selector works in my tests.

AT+COPS=1,2,"26201",7

I get 26201 LTE-M (7)

AT+COPS=1,2,"26201",9

switches to 26201 NB-IoT (9)

Is that implemented in mfw 1.3.5?

If so, is that just missing in nRF9160 AT commands v2.3 ?

Hello, 

But to my very surprise, using mfw 1.3.5, it seems to work!

Yes, to my suprise this works for me as well using mfw_1.3.5. According to the AT+COPS documentation it should not be possible to change system mode using the set command.

I have forwarded to our modem team for an explanation. 

I've tested and confirmed that this does not work with modem FW 1.2.7.

Kind regards,
Øyvind

Any update?

[Øyvind]

Hello, yes, our team confirms <act>parameter in AT+COPS is indeed missing from documentation of modem FW v1.3.x. They will update the documentation. 

Thanks for pointing this out!

Kind regards,
Øyvind

If it is officially supported, then that's great news!

Thanks for clarifying.

It's now documented in 2.4.
