How to configure the COEX interface as input on nRF9160

Greetings,

The only examples I can seem to locate of using the Coexistence Interface on nRF9160 is with the internal GPS but the documentation states that "COEX0: Input to the LTE modem from the external device. When active high, indicates that the external device transceiver is turned on." 

That's the function I'm looking for, where an external device tells the '9160 to be quiet while it's using the airwaves.

I'm not certain I get the  %XCOEX0 AT command, as it seems to relate to using COEX0 as an output that's tied to internal GPS use.  My questions:

  1. Can COEX0 be used as an input from external devices to keep the LTE radio quiet?
  2. Does it need to be configured to behave this way and, if so, how?

Thanks for any hints on this and please don't hesitate if you need more info.

  • Hi!

    Can COEX0 be used as an input from external devices to keep the LTE radio quiet?

    As of today, this functionality is unfortunately not implemented. 

    For now, you can only set this as an output, as per the AT command documentation you refer to AT%XCOEX0.

    If you want more information on future roadmaps regarding this functionality, you can contact your regional sales manager. PM me your location and I can give you the contact information. 

    Best regards,
