Hi. I know this may be a little late, but I have some code that enables LTE-CATM1 connection through hologram and to send a message into their socket. I would also recommend not specifying the carrier because Hologram.io takes care of that. Here is my code: Also note that hologram.io working with Python requires that you send a bytearray in ASCII format. At least from my testing, that's the only way I could get it to work. import socket import time import pycom from machine import RTC from network import LTE from network import WLAN HOST = "cloudsocket.hologram.io" PORT = 9999 DEVICE_KEY = "ABCDEFG" #generated on hologram's portal for each SIM card. TOPIC = "TOPIC1" # # Need to use global variables. # # If in each function you delare a new reference, functionality is broken lte = LTE() # Returns a network.LTE object with an active Internet connection. def getLTE(): # If already used, the lte device will have an active connection. # If not, need to set up a new connection. if lte.isconnected(): return lte # Modem does not connect successfully without first being reset. print("Resetting LTE modem ... ", end="") lte.send_at_cmd('AT^RESET') print("OK") time.sleep(1) # While the configuration of the CGDCONT register survives resets, # the other configurations don't. So just set them all up every time. print("Configuring LTE ", end='') lte.send_at_cmd('AT+CGDCONT=1,"IP","hologram"') # Changed this from origninal print(".", end='') lte.send_at_cmd('AT!="RRC::addscanfreq band=4 dl-earfcn=9410"') # changed band from 28 to 4. I dont know what earfcn=9410 is; print(".", end='') lte.send_at_cmd('AT+CFUN=1') print(" OK") # If correctly configured for carrier network, attach() should succeed. if not lte.isattached(): print("Attaching to LTE network ", end='') lte.attach() while(True): if lte.isattached(): print(" OK") #pycom.rgbled(0x00FF00) #time.sleep(.5) #pycom.rgbled(0x000000) break print('.', end='') time.sleep(1) # Once attached, connect() should succeed. if not lte.isconnected(): print("Connecting on LTE network ", end='') lte.connect() while(True): if lte.isconnected(): print(" OK") break print('.', end='') time.sleep(1) # Once connect() succeeds, any call requiring Internet access will # use the active LTE connection. return lte # Clean disconnection of the LTE network is required for future # successful connections without a complete power cycle between. def endLTE(): print("Disonnecting LTE ... ", end='') lte.disconnect() print("OK") time.sleep(1) print("Detaching LTE ... ", end='') lte.dettach() print("OK") # Program starts here. try: lte = getLTE() print(lte) s = socket.socket() print(s) dns_records = socket.getaddrinfo(HOST, PORT) print("got dns_records") print(dns_records) message = "Hello World!" for record in dns_records: try: s.connect(record[-1]) print("connected") data = '{"k": "%s", "d": "%s", "t": "%s"}' % (DEVICE_KEY, message, TOPIC) s.send(bytes(data, 'ascii')) print("sent") result = s.recv(8).decode() print(result) s.close() break except Exception as err1: try: s.close() except: pass print(err1) continue except Exception as err: print(err) try: s.close() except: pass finally: endLTE()
