Unable to activate iBASIS SIM (I Think)

I just received the Thingy 91 this morning. I've inserted the SIM have verified it on the nRF Connect for Cloud.

I cannot proceed to the next step, as the led continues to pulse blue - so I assume not connected to the network.

I am in the UK, South West London (SW15 6BF).

I assume there is no coverage here??

What are my options? If I need a different SIM, what am I looking for?

Thanks

  • Well, much to my surprise (and delight) I seem to have found a combination of things (SIM, Location, Firmware) which has brought the thingy91 to life here in South West London, and I can see data appearing in the nrf cloud dashboard!

    But now have questions about the data!

    1) I am not getting GPS at all .. I just see "Waiting for GPS Data". The device is outside and has been for >30 mins. It has a clear view of the sky. Anything else I need to do? Or does it not work right now. There is no GPS data showing up in the datastream in the terminal window,

    2) Air Pressure is showing up at a constant 99.9 for every reading. Presumably not correct?

    3) I can see something in the terminal ..

    Received":{

    "appId":
    "AIR_QUAL"
    "data":
    "25.1"
    "messageType":
    "DATA"

    }

    what is that? It's not showing in the dashboard and is not selectable as a pane to show.

    Pat

  • Did you remember to press the button and hold it for 10 secs?
