case about ncs v2.5.0 serial_lte_modem add a user command AT#XPTGPS=1,2,3,4,5,6,7 connect nRF Cloud failed

[peter.min]

Hi,

1. I added an at instruction to the example serial_lte_modem to connect to the nRF Cloud but it always fails. What can I do?

2. The code is as follows:

7077.serial_lte_modem_ag3352.zip

3. Connection logs are as follows:

4.In addition, the device automatically restarts at the end of the log. How can I solve the restart problem?

5. Based on the example serial_lte_modem_, the following modifications are made:
(1) Set the network mode to NB
(2) Added an AT trigger instruction    AT#XPTGPS=1,2,3,4,5,6,7

6.Test board: PCA10090 1.0.0   sdk:NCS V2.5.0

7.Send instructions AT#XNRFCLOUD=1 in the LTE Link Monitor
You can connect to the nRF Cloud

Need to pay attention to the file and location

Thank you for all your assistance.

Hello, 

My apologies for the delayed answer. 

First off all, have you provisioned/onboarded your device to nRF Cloud? Are you able to connect to nRF Cloud using the default Serial LTE Modem?

From the logs there are a couple of errors from src\peter\slm_at_ag3352.c, I assume. Have you verified that the issue is not in with this custom code?

4.In addition, the device automatically restarts at the end of the log. How can I solve the restart problem?

Do you have any indication to what causes this issue?

Will look into this and get back to you with an answer within today or tomorrow.

Kind regards,
Øyvind

Hi yvind,

1.The configuration of the nRF Cloud is ok and you can connect to the nRF Cloud using the following instructions
AT+CFUN=1    ->   Delay 15 seconds   ->   AT#XNRFCLOUD=1   Delay 5 seconds.   ->   AT#XNRFCLOUD? Return #XNRFCLOUD: 1,0

2. In my opinion, the error in the log should not happen, but it did happen, which confused me.

3.Current error You only need to focus on this function:  void cmd_test(void)

Thank you for all your assistance.

Hi Øyvind,

any update?

Hi Peter,

 

My apologies for the late reply. 

All at commands that start with "AT#" are SLM specific AT commands, and will return an error if you call them through "nrf_modem_*" API. I would recommend that you instead send these through the UART API. Right now, there are no direct methods of issuing AT# prefixed commands, but you can have a look at the function "slm_at_parse".

 

Kind regards,

Håkon

Hi  Håkon Alseth,

The 1 instruction is a custom instruction that I added based on the 2 documentation.

As a custom directive, it is allowed to use this way, how do you explain this?

1.AT#XPTGPS=1,2,3,4,5,6,7 

2.ncs/v2.5.0/peter/serial_lte_modem_ag3352/doc/slm_extending.rst

Thank you for all your assistance.
Kind regards,

Hi Peter,

 

You cannot send a AT# prefixed command to function "nrf_modem_*", which AT#XPTGPS currently does.

The document that you are referring to is how to add a custom AT# command, and it shows how this can be done. However, if this AT# command also calls other AT#-prefixed commands, it will not currently work. As mentioned, please have a look at the slm_at_parse function, as there is currently no direct function to invoke at# prefixed commands directly.

 

Kind regards,

Håkon
