### Prerequisites

* Monogoto iSIM profile
* [LBAD0XX1SC-DM](https://www.murata.com/en-us/products/connectivitymodule/lpwa/overview/lineup/type-1sc)

### Quick Navigation

* [Test the connection by sending a PING](#test-the-connection-by-sending-a-ping)
* [Useful Links](#useful-links)

## Connect the LBAD0XX1SC to Monogoto

{% hint style="info" %}
Keep the **AT Commands manual** next to you for more details about the commands. [**Click here**](https://www.murata.com/en-us/products/connectivitymodule/lpwa/overview/lineup/type-1sc) to download the latest version, and scroll down to **Documentation and Resources** to find the AT Commands Manual.
{% endhint %}

#### **Reset the Module**:

Reset non-volatile memory:

Reboot module:

```bash
ATZ
```

**Set the error reporting to verbose**, resulting in more descriptive error messages (optional):

```bash
AT+CMEE=2
```

Check the **status of the SIM card**. The correct response should be: `+CPIN: READY`

```
AT+CPIN?
```

{% hint style="warning" %}
+CPIN: READY means that the iSIM is ready for use and does not require any PIN entry.
{% endhint %}

### Query device information

Request the **product type, hardware,** and **firmware** **version**:

```bash
ATI
```

Request the **IMSI** (International Mobile Subscriber Identity):

```
AT+CIMI
```

Request the **ICCID** (Integrated Circuit Card ID), which is the identification number of the iSIM&#x20;

```
AT%CCID
```

Check the **SIM initialization selection policy** is currently using:

```
AT%GETCFG="SIM_INIT_SELECT_POLICY"
```

Expected response: `SIM_INIT_SELECT_POLICY:5`. The last digit indicates the Active SIM:\
0 indicates **External (SIM card)**\
5 indicates **Internal (iSIM)**

### Network Configuration

It is possible to let the modem select the network automatically or to manually define a network to connect with.

#### **Option 1: Automatic Network Selection**

To set the modem to **automatic network selection** enter the command:

```bash
AT+COPS=0
```

Check the **network and cellular technology the modem** is currently using:

```
AT+COPS? 
```

Expected response: `+COPS: 0,0,"<name of operator>",X`. The last digit indicates the cellular technology:\
7 indicates **LTE Cat-M1**\
8 indicates **NB-IoT**

#### Option 2: Manual Network Selection

Start with searching for available networks:

```
AT+COPS=?
```

{% hint style="warning" %}
It may take several minutes before the modem responds.&#x20;
{% endhint %}

The modem responds with the **names** and the **MCCMNC** codes of the available networks. It also shows the cellular technologies the networks support:&#x20;

```
+COPS: (1,"vodafone NL","voda NL","20404",8),(1,"NL KPN","NL KPN","20408",0),(1,"vodafone NL","voda NL","20404",9),(1,"T-Mobile NL","TMO NL","20416",0),(1,"NL KPN","NL KPN","20408",8),(1,"vodafone NL","voda NL","20404",0),(1,"T-Mobile NL","TMO NL","20416",8),(1,"T-Mobile NL","TMO NL","20416",9),,(0,1,2,3,4),(0,1,2)

OK
```

To find which of the networks Monogoto has **roaming agreements** with, review the [**Coverage lists**](/getting-started/global-public-coverage.md).

{% hint style="info" %}
To find the **profile** of your iSIM, visit the [**Monogoto Console**](https://console.monogoto.io/), open the page **Things** ![](/files/OWVV2DjKOVW5iaNl1NcG) and select a specific **Thing**. Scroll down to **Mobile Identities** to find your profile in the column **Network Provider Name**.

![](/files/0IINqu41pSHJSRJYujvX)
{% endhint %}

Check the **network and cellular technology** the modem is currently using:

```
AT+COPS? 
```

Expected response: `+COPS: 0,0,"<name of operator>",X`. The last digit indicates the cellular technology.

**Manually set the network and the cellular technology**:

```
AT+COPS=1,2,"XXXXX",7
```

Replace `XXXXX` with the **MCCMNC** code of your operator, for example`"20404"` for Vodafone NL. Use `7` for LTE Cat-M1.

**Check the radio signal strength and signal quality:**

```bash
AT+CSQ
```

{% hint style="info" %}
`+CSQ` returns 2 values separated by a comma. The first value represents the **signal strength** and provides a value between 0 and 31; higher numbers indicate better signal strength. The second value represents the **signal quality** indicated by a value between 0 and 7. If `AT+CSQ` returns `99,99`, the signal is undetectable or unknown.
{% endhint %}

#### Define the cellular band(s) (optional)

It is possible to **lock the modem to one or more specific bands**. This may result in a faster boot cycle as the modem does not need to scan for available bands at startup.

{% hint style="info" %}
Support LTE Band: Low Bands 5,8,12,13,14 (CAT M1 Only),17,18,19,20,26,28&#x20;

Mid Bands 1,2,3,4,25
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="warning" %}
Although the modem may support many different bands, your local network operator may not. Have a look at the [**LTE Cat-M1 overview**](broken://pages/GDSRxI85QWE6Z2lsLeS3) to find the available band(s) in your region.
{% endhint %}

To lock the modem to a specific band, a hexadecimal value representing the band needs to be sent to the modem. To **lock the modem to LTE-M band 5**, send:&#x20;

```
AT%SETCFG="BAND","5"
```

{% hint style="info" %}
For information about setting specific LTE bands, see **Murata LBAD0XX1SC-DM** &#x20;

**AT Commands Manual**, chapter **4.2.5.**
{% endhint %}

To test if the band(s) is properly set, enter the command:&#x20;

```
AT%GETCFG="BAND"
```

Example response: Bands: 1 ,2 ,3 ,4 ,5 ,8 ,12 ,13 ,14 ,17 ,18 ,19 ,20 ,25 ,26 ,28\
They represent the LTE-M bands and NB-IoT bands.

#### Query the signal measurement on a cellular network

To information about the technology used, the network provider, and the cellular band, enter:

```
AT%MEAS="8"
```

Example response: `%MEAS:Signal Quality:RSRP= -115,RSRQ= -15,SINR= -3,RSSI= -120.`&#x20;

### Network Activation

**Set the APN to** `go.mono`:

```json
AT+CGDCONT=1,"IP","go.mono"
```

Validate if the **APN** is set correctly:

```
AT+CGDCONT?
```

Expected response: `+CGDCONT: 1,"IP","go.mono","0.0.0.0",0,0,0,0,0,0`

**Activate the PDP (packet data protocol) context**:

```
AT+CGACT=1,1
```

**Test** if the PDP context is activated:

```
AT+CGACT?
```

Expected response: `+CGACT: 1,1`

#### Validate if your device received an **IP address**:

```bash
AT+CGPADDR
```

Expected response: `+CGPADDR: 1,XX.XXX.XX.XXX`

{% hint style="info" %}
Do you see an IP address? **Congratulations! You’ve successfully connected the Murata LBAD0XX1SC-DM modem to Monogoto 🎉**
{% endhint %}

## Test the connection by sending a PING

A PING test can be performed to test if the modem has an active data connection with a mobile network.

{% hint style="warning" %}
When cellular modems are idle for a long period of time, cell towers might drop the data connection to save resources. Sending regular PINGs is a good method for testing the data connection, as well as for keeping the connection alive because the operator registers your device as being actively used.
{% endhint %}

**Send 5 PINGs** to the IP address `8.8.8.8`:

```
AT%PINGCMD=0,"8.8.8.8",5
```

Example response:

```
+QPING: 0,"8.8.8.8",32,543,255
+QPING: 0,"8.8.8.8",32,396,255
+QPING: 0,"8.8.8.8",32,262,255
+QPING: 0,"8.8.8.8",32,299,255
+QPING: 0,4,4,0,262,543,375
```

{% hint style="success" %}
**Great work on connecting the Murata LBAD0XX1SC-DM to Monogoto!** Have a look at the **Things** logs in the [**Monogoto Console**](https://console.monogoto.io/) to find more details about the established connection.
