Question - MPCIE about meta-iot2000 HOT 32 CLOSED

That's great to hear! If you have some information / links about the card, we could add it to our list of "known-to-work" devices. See also https://support.industry.siemens.com/tf/ww/en/posts/call-for-testing-3g-4g-cellular-modem-support/191352/?page=0&pageSize=10

from meta-iot2000.

Are you sure the modem exposes itself as an Ethernet interface? Maybe it just adds another uart and expects a PPP service to issue AT commands over that.

Are you using the latest master revision with oFono support? Did you check if iot2000setup detected it? Also check the system logs for hints if the modem is detected.

from meta-iot2000.

• Seems like by default it dont expose itself as an ethernet interface.
• I'm using meta-iot2000-example 2.2
• Command lsusb dont seems to detect the mpcie.
• Also, seems like no ppp, pppd or ofono executables are instalated (Nothing related in $PATH or in /etc)
• iot2000setup -> I dont see anything related to its detection

Is there any "flag" or something i should enable to access PPP support?

from meta-iot2000.

For ofono/connman support (obsoletes pppd), you need to build an own image from current master. 2.2 does not contain that feature yet.

You should see the card via "lspci -knn". That may also list some driver that picked it up. If there is none listed, please share the PCI ID.

Hey, seems like iotsetup2000 is detecting the modem. But seems not working.

• connmanctl services -> Empty
• connmanctl technologies ->
  /net/connman/technology/cellular
  Name = Cellular
  Type = cellular
  Powered = True
  Connected = False
  Tethering = False
• connmanctl scan cellular -> Not supported

I will investigate more about connman and ofono. If i found a solution I will report back

from meta-iot2000.

Hmm, according to your lspci, there is no mPCIe device. Are you sure the adapter is fine and properly plugged?

@jan-kiszka I fixed it. The problem was with my ISP provider and roaming.

So, for anybody trying to give 3G to the IOT, iot2000setup works pretty well. Also, the commands I have descrived can be used to do it without iot2000setup.

from meta-iot2000.

Type: mPCIe
Manufacturer: Telit
Model: HE910-D
Country: Spain
Notes: It requires to add two 3G antenas in the two connectors of the mPCIe

Notable Issues found: None related to IOT2000 SO or Hardware

from meta-iot2000.

Dear deinok,
in my case it is not working out following your instructions related to the guide here: https://embexus.com/tag/ofono/
The problem is already that trying "./list-modems" gives me following as output:

[ /telit_0 ]
Powered = 0
Online = 0
Features =
Lockdown = 0
Interfaces =
Type = hardware
Emergency = 0

At the same time it is possible to use AT commands under ttyACM0 in a proper way but to establish a ppp0 via pppd procedure is just not working out :-(

from meta-iot2000.

Can you show an image of the pcie hardware?
What is your country?
Commit of the image that you are using?

• I tried both mPCIe HE910- , with GPS and w/o GPS
  Screenshots and photo related to problem.pdf
• Germany
• the latest official master (dee5ab7)

Maybe I have to check the kernel configuration and add some stuff here?

Can you exec the following commands and show us the CLI results?

from meta-iot2000.

I have already did above I think...:

after executing the script ./list-modems under /usr/lib/ofono/test

[ /telit_0 ]
Powered = 0
Online = 0
Features =
Lockdown = 0
Interfaces =
Type = hardware
Emergency = 0

from meta-iot2000.

okey, have you tryed in this order?
./enable-modem -> Connecting modem /telit_0... - Seems good
./create-internet-context telefonica.es telefonica telefonica - Seems good
./online-modem ->Setting modem /telit_0 online... - Seems good
./activate-context -> Something I dont remember

from meta-iot2000.

Yes. Unfortunately in case of "./enable-modem" error messages would come up:

root@iot2000:/usr/lib/ofono/test# ./enable-modem
Connecting modem /telit_0...
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "./enable-modem", line 20, in

message, timeout)
dbus.exceptions.DBusException: org.ofono.Error.Failed: Operation failed

I am wondering why "./list-modem" brings "Powered=0" , "Online=0" etc. although it is possible to use the modem properly if using screen /dev/ttyACM0 and sending AT commands manually...

I also build an image today night where I have changed the Kernel configuration on basis of the information given at oFono - Embexus
under recipes-kernel/linux/configs/iot2000example.cfg ...maybe I am doing sth. wrong here?

from meta-iot2000.

Seems like the Trackback is not giving so much information.
In my case it works well without any change to the image, this commit works well with me (dee5ab7).
Can you connect the mPCIE to a Desktop with a Debian based SO? (Debian or Ubuntu should work well for the tests)

from meta-iot2000.

But have you loaded specific Kernel modules according to the USB manual from TELIT maybe?

I even have changed from 12V to 24V adapter to make sure that is nothing having to do with the hardware although like I said before it is working fine with AT command also at present 12V

I will report after having tried some more Kernel adjustments

from meta-iot2000.

I'm powering IOT2000 with 24V/0,6A with no kernel modules modifications

from meta-iot2000.

Is the mPCIe HE910-D exposed as ttyACMx or ttyUSBx in your case under /dev?

from meta-iot2000.

Can you check that the Model is the same? And works with a SIM?

from meta-iot2000.

ttyACMx

from meta-iot2000.

...I have both (w and w/o GPS option) working with a SIM ...at the moment the HE910 is inside ... I will try now again with the other one...

from meta-iot2000.

Oh man. It is the hardware ...I messed up before ...:
It is working with the HE910-D (without GPC) but not with HE910 (with GPS)... Finally.
Sorry for the trouble... and BIG THANKS to you for helping out deinok!!!
At least now I can proceed with testings ...but its sad that it is not with the HE910 :-(

from meta-iot2000.

Dont worry we are here to help each other, I have not tested the other model you have, I'm sorry to be unable to help :(

from meta-iot2000.

Everything working out now but as also in your case the fourth command: "./activate-context" led to an error message although "./list-modems" in my case indicates following which I interprete as positive.
What was the solution in your case for this?

./activate-context -> Error activating /telit_0/context1: org.ofono.Error.NotAttached: GPRS is not attached - Seems the error In my case the solution was connecting the hardware antennas...

from meta-iot2000.

Well in my case it can not be the antennas as the AT commands and registering to provider via classical way with AT commands is no problem. Still the "./activate-context" command is resulting in "org.ofono.Error.Failed: Operation failed"" error message.
I also have no clue at which point the script throws an exception. Is it possible to find it out somehow and to track it a little bit more?

from meta-iot2000.

glad i found this post, @vitus1984 , does that mean the HE910-G will not work with the iot2000 ? , is it a must to connect both antennas on the Telit mPcie for it to work ?

from meta-iot2000.

I think it can work. But I havent managed to realize it although with the one model w/o GPS it was possible and successful.
You would need to connect both antennas.
