Hi,

Please don't close this ticket, this issue is not fixed yet

the AT interfaces are working, i can use some command AT to control the modem but the commands AT for DATA and SMS are not working, we can organise session live to fix this issue?

Thanks and Regards,

Adil

I'm confused, what serial port do you mean?

Adil,

Please read our documentation.

[quote user="Adil"]I don't understand why the commands AT are not working for Data tests (Ping, Data HTTTP), the application are installed correctily and the Attach LTE-M under our network is OK, can you please check and help us the fix this issue[/quote]

You are currently running the Asset Tracker application which supports the AT Host, running a set of 3GPP standard commands. From the AT Command Reference Guide

"This document describes the AT commands used to control the modem in nRF91 Series devices. The nRF91 series AT command API enables modem control for firmware running in the application core on nRF91 series devices.

The AT command API can also be exposed on one of the nRF91 serial interfaces by programming appropriate firmware in the application core. The nRF Connect SDK contains examples of such proxy firmware that can be run stand-alone or as part of other firmware functionality in the nRF91 application core. The stand-alone example is called at_client. This way, an external MCU or computer can get access to the modem API either exclusively or in addition to application firmware running on the nRF91 itself.

The AT commands described in this document apply to all versions of the nRF9160 module hardware."

The nRF91 series AT commands do not support PING, data, HTTP.

The PING, DATA and HTTPCCON AT commands are available in the Serial LTE Modem application. This application sample uses a series of proprietary AT commands to let the nRF91 development kit operate as a Serial LTE Modem (SLM).

Please reprogram your device with the Serial LTE Modem or the Modem Shell.

If you are not able to do so, please reach out to your RSM.

Kind regards,
Øyvind

Hi Adil,

This is often seen when the computer is behind a corporate firewall. Is it possible to try another open network or outside of office? Also, please make sure that your install path is as short as possible.

Kind regards,

Dear colleague,

Adil,

The nRF Connect for Desktop is not same as the nRF Connect SDK (NCS). You will need to install NCS on you computer in order to access the relevant samples. That said, you can install NCS through nRF Connect for Desktop through the Toolchain Manager app. You will then need to install NCS v1.6.0-rc2:

Once installed you can open the IDE to test our samples using the "Open nRF Connect SDK project" under File. Follow the instructions given in our documentation

Kind regards,
Øyvind

You could have a look at the Modem Shell sample, available in the NCS v1.6.0-rc2 tag. This sample includes a ping function:

mosh:~$ ping
Usage: ping [optional options] -d destination

mandatory options:
  -d, --destination, [str] Name or IP address
optional options:
  -t, --timeout, [int]     Ping timeout in milliseconds
  -c, --count, [int]       The number of times to send the ping request
  -i, --interval, [int]    Interval between successive packet transmissions
                           in milliseconds
  -l, --length, [int]      Payload length to be sent
  -I, --cid, [int]         Use this option to bind pinging to specific CID.
                           See link cmd for interfaces
  -6, --ipv6,              Force IPv6 usage with the dual stack interfaces
  -h, --help,              Shows this help information

And iperf

mosh:~$ iperf3 --manual
Usage: iperf3 [-s|-c host] [options]
       iperf3 [-m|--manual] [-v|--version]

Server or Client:
  -p, --port      #         server port to listen on/connect to
  -f, --format   [kmgtKMGT] format to report: Kbits, Mbits, Gbits, Tbits
  -i, --interval  #         seconds between periodic throughput reports
  -B, --bind      <host>    bind to the interface associated with the address <host>
  -V, --verbose             more detailed output

  -I, --interface <apn>     use this option to bind to PDN with specific APN.
      --pdn_id <pdn_id>     use this option to bind to PDN with actual PDN ID.

                            (optional slash and packet count for burst mode)
  -t, --time      #         time in seconds to transmit for (default 10 secs)
  -n, --bytes     #[KMG]    number of bytes to transmit (instead of -t)

Thank you

Bonjour,

Je veux juste faire un ping test vers l’adresse public google 8.8.8.8, le module s’attach bien à notre réseau Orange, mais je n’arrive pas faire la Data, il y a moyen de faire speedtest?

Merci

Cordialement,

Adil,

Can you please elaborate on what you are trying to achieve?

The Asset Tracker and AT Client support the AT Commands listed in the reference guide. There is no PING command in this list. There is another alternative using the Serial LTE Modem.

In our nRF Connect SDK there are several samples that you can look at as well.

Kind regards,
Øyvind

Hi Adil,

Good to hear you got it running.

[quote user="Adil"]i tried a ping test it's failing [/quote]

AT+NPING is not a supported command. Please refer to the AT Command Reference Guide.

Hello,

Thanks for reaching out, and sorry to hear about the issue.

Are you working with the nRF9160 DK or Thingy:91? Have you programmed the latest version of the Asset Tracker, or the AT Client? Can you please take me through the steps you have followed?

Kind regards,
Øyvind
