@beegee , further I will keep communication in forum only. yes I am using USB connector to send AT commands. Is there any sequence of AT commands to be send to device to detect SIM card?
Thank you
Hai, I will try to convey information properly, at starting I was checking the output from the Termite app, there I observed for at+version command response was Firmware Version: RUIv3.0.015 OK
and for response of different AT commands also I was able to observe then I wanted to implement MQTT functionality so I flashed code written in Arduino IDE through Jlink then through USB also Iam able flash written code. Now if I open Termite app I could see the output of written code. If I send at+version also it shows AT command not found.
Can you share your code?

What are the Blue and Red LED on the RAK5010 showing?
After power up, the Blue should be on and the Red should be blinking. This will change after the BG96 connected to the cellular network.
If they are both off, then press the button with the label PWR.
Make sure you have a battery attached.
Can you try to run attached code? It is handling the response from the BG96 differently.

Seems there is a problem with the SIM card detection.
Not sure why this occurs with your SIM card.
I am clueless why you have this problems. As you can see in my log, I have no problems with the SIM card detection and reading the IMSI of the card.
Only idea I have is to try with another SIM card, maybe from another SIM card provider.
Ok I will try again with another SIM card and let you know.
@beegee , for factory reset you told using Jlink interface we can do… but where do I get original hex file to flash. can you please let me know.
If none of the SIM cards is working, I think it is more a problem on the SIM card holder.
Resetting the firmware is only on the nRF52, I don’t think it would change anything.
For resetting the firmware of the BG96, that is not possible on the RAK5010.
Do you have another RAK5010 available?
No only one module we have. how to check whether SIM card holder is proper or not?
Difficult.
You can check the solder points:
You can check whether SIM_VDD is available (1.8V)
You can check if SIM_PRESENCE goes to GND when the card is inserted.
It could as well be that the contacts inside the holder are disformed or dirty.
This is how RAK module at our place is looking like… Even I am feeling that pins are displaced. What I am assuming is right or wrong please let me know
We measured voltages using multimeter too. At SIM_VDD pin observed 1.797V. Remaining all pins are almost 0V.
Nothing, seems you RAK5010 has a problem.
If you bought the device directly from RAKwireless Store, kindly send an email to [email protected] if you device is within warranty period and ask for replacement.
If you bought the device from a reseller, please contact the reseller.
@ beegee, thank you.
Check your network coverage to ensure that you are in an area with strong airtel network reception. if you have confirmed that the sim card is inserted correctly and compatible and the issue persists, there might be a hardware problem with sim card slot or the device’s cellular module.
