AT%ENVEVAL In PSM

[thomasGronroos]

The at command documentation says that ENVEVAL is only available in system mode 2 (CFUN=2). Is there a reason why the command can't be run in any other mode?
For example if I wanted to get similar network environment evaluation in PSM or just before PSM end would I need give up the current registration status just to run ENVEVAL again?

Also as a side question, is it possible to set priority list base on enveval while still preserving automatic network selection?

Hi,

Thanks for waiting.

%ENVEVAL is only with CFUN=2 because it is meant to compare PLMNs availability/quality before you connect, for example when you have several SIMs or profiles and want to pick the best one for a fixed device (like meters and similar). The modem searches the PLMNs you list and returns how each one looks. It is not intended for use while you are already connected in normal mode, and there are no current plans to support it in other functional modes. You may check %CONEVAL as well moreover could you share a bit more why you want %ENVEVAL during PSM? 

And %ENVEVAL does not set a PLMN priority list in the modem. It only returns results for the PLMNs you asked for. Then your application can then decides which PLMN or SIM to use (you can rank by signal, energy estimate, etc)
