FiPy trouble with CatM1 AND NBIoT
-
Thanks for the reply @claus. I did indeed update the modem firmware. First update was from stock firmware to latest NBIoT (6.0.x etc) and tested with NB specific SIM from Twilio without success. Then recently switched to latest CatM firmware and tested with CatM specific SIM from 1oT.
Cylce as follows:
RCC_TOP_FSM: Scanning
RRC_SEARCH_FSM: Wait cell IDRCC_TOP_FSM: Syncing
RRC_SEARCH_FSM: Wait SyncRCC_TOP_FSM: Connecting
RRC_SEARCH_FSM: CampedRCC_TOP_FSM: Scanning
RRC_SEARCH_FSM: Wait cell IDRCC_TOP_FSM: Syncing
RRC_SEARCH_FSM: Wait SyncRCC_TOP_FSM: Connecting
RRC_SEARCH_FSM: CampedRCC_TOP_FSM: Camping
RRC_SEARCH_FSM: Wait SIB1RCC_TOP_FSM: Syncing
RRC_SEARCH_FSM: Wait SyncRCC_TOP_FSM: Scanning
RRC_SEARCH_FSM: Wait RSSIAnd on and on.
It seems to enter Connecting state very quickly after reinitializing modem. But only stays there for a few seconds before bailing to the other states (Syncing, Scanning, etc).

@barryjump These are the states I get after a lte.reset():
init lte reset lte attaching.. ('SCANNING', 'WAIT_CELL_ID'). ('CAMPING', 'WAIT_SIB'). ('CAMPING', 'WAIT_SIBX'). ('CAMPING', 'WAIT_SIB'). ('SYNCING', 'WAIT_SYNC').... ('CAMPING', 'WAIT_SIB'). ('CAMPING', 'WAIT_SIBX')... ('CONNECTING', 'CAMPED')...... ('CONNECTED', 'CAMPED')........................attached!Your states look exactly like what I had before changing the modem firmware. The docs say
If the system returns multiple times from SYNCING to CAMPED, check the network availability, simcard placement and / or the firmware version.You have checked the other two hints I guess? Has 1oT provided you with the band and apn parameters?
-
@claus I did check both, but I'm going to double and triple check now. Will report back.
Thanks for helping! -
@claus Hey I tripped checked sim card placement and firmware. Regarding signal and network availability, I found this reference elsewhere on this forum.
https://usatcorp.com/faqs/understanding-lte-signal-strength-values/
If this reference doc is correct, my results (at the time FSM shows Connecting) show that I while don't have great signal, I should have enough to reach a tower.

Hi,
So it seems you are connecting (which is good!) but then immediately being rejected by the network because of some settings mismatch probably. There could be several causes for this error (mismatch in APN, simcard, sudden loss of signal etc.) -
@Gijs this is my code, I've tried several different APNs, but perhaps I've set this up wrong? One thing I may not be handling properly is the band and carrier, but that is a bit strange considering we've been testing MVNOs (like Hologram, Twilio, Soracom, etc.) that hop different carriers with different bands. I've left the band unspecified as a result - perhaps thats incorrect.

Quick update, I brought my FiPy on the road and parked right beneath a cell tower to see if perhaps my problem originated from poor signal.
As I mentioned before, my original signal reported as follows:
RSRQ (dB) : -10.82 (-3 Excellent to -19 Poor)
RSRP (dBm) : -104.80 (-44 Excellent to -140 Poor)
CINR : 10.31 (12.5 Excellent to 7 Poor)Underneath the tower I was seeing excellent signal stats:
RSRQ (dB) : -6.2 (-3 Excellent to -19 Poor)
RSRP (dBm) : -59.02 (-44 Excellent to -140 Poor)
CINR : 28.22 (12.5 Excellent to 7 Poor)Unfortunately that did not resolve the issue, so all I can imagine I'm left with is some configuration problems with the Band, APN, or Network settings in lte.init() and lte.attach(). Perhaps @Gijs you have some suggestions?
Thanks!
-
@barryjump Your signal strength should not be a problem, I have RSRP around -115 and RSRQ at -15 and I can attach. Could you please check the following: Print the output of the AT command "AT+CEREG?" after lte.init(). If the first integer value is different from "2" ( say for example "+CEREG: 0,2" - the first value is "0") then include a "AT+CEREG=2" after lte.init(). Your "AT+CEREG?" should now give "+CEREG: 2,x". Now try to attach.

@claus said in FiPy trouble with CatM1 AND NBIoT:
AT+CEREG?
Thanks @claus running that check showed the following:

@barryjump For testing the attach process I use https://github.com/clausdenk/fipy-ltesignal. You should be able to use it directly by commenting the dnsserver calls at the top of the file and adjusting ATTACH_PARAMETERS. It should be ok to only specify the apn, the band should be detected automatically by the modem. If you know the band it probably speeds up the process though. I get outputs similar to

A pity it does not in your case.

Hi,
Thanks @claus for the great advice!~
My knowledge of the whole LTE thing only goes as far as the guide in the documentation unfortunately. I know we are working on publishing new LTE modem firmwares (hang tight!) but I'm not sure that will solve the issue here (we did have some succes with a beta NB-IoT firmware for other customers, you could contact me at support@pycom.io and I could send it to you!)Gijs

@Gijs Thanks. Emailed you just now.
Meantime, I don't want to give up hope as this user seems to have made this work somehow:
