A few words in the beginning

• Version 2.0.0 ... beta, not everything tested...
• This project not an official product of Quectel / Mediatek
• The project is based on Quectel OpenCPU and reverse engineering

ATT: work only with firmwares BC66NBR01A04 or BC66NBR01A05

Chipset Mediatek MT2625 SoC Ultra-low power, 3GPP Release-14 enabled NB-IoT platform for wide-ranging home, civic, industrial or mobile applications https://www.mediatek.com/products/nbIot/mt2625

Module: Quectel BC66 is a high-performance, multi-band NB-IoT module... https://www.quectel.com/product/bc66.htm

• Test Board for the project: BC66-TE-B ( it is shield Arduino, unfortunately... )
• API: OpenCPU, native C, EAT (Embedded AT) oriented
• User Application Size: ROM (BIN) 200k, RAM 100k
• you need firmware BC66NBR01A04 or BC66NBR01A05

Tools

• Arduino IDE (Windows) https://www.arduino.cc/
• Firmware, USB Drivers, Quectel IoT Flash Tool https://app.box.com/s/3wrkh1yzn09yuyb5f8v5vllmlir0571s

ATTENTION: Before start exeriments:

• Update firmware version BC66NBR01A04 or BC66NBR01A05
• Make Backup of NVDM Fields (module "eeprom")
• IoT Flash Tool, [Backup] button, check-box "Backup", select file for backup (use IMEI as name), [Start] and keep the file
• Now you can start all and you can restore the module if need
• ATTENTION: if you upload application to module you lose standart AT command via uarts
• Restore AT interface: send "AT+EPORT=1,connl,0", then remove application
• SEE THIS
• Other examples

• Add json link to Arduino - Preferences

http://wizio.eu/arduino/bc66/package_wizio.bc66_index.json

• Open Borad Manager, Find WizIO, Install OR Update (remove old versions)
• Select Board
• Select Firmware
• Click [Compile] or [Upload]
