Do you offer the SIM7000A or the SIM7000G?

what are the differences between SIM7000 and SIM7600 series? Are these board compatible with EPS32 MCU?

The Frequency Band supported by 7000series and 7600series chips is different. Please confirm the Frequency Band supported by your SIM card.

At the same time, because the pinouts of these two Shields are designed based on Arduino. So we didn't test their compatibility with ESP32.

Hi, I want to connect to the internet through this module and send the speed and coordinates information through api. Is this module useful for me? Thank you with respect

Hi, Please contact your local operator to check your sim card frequency band and choose the appropriate shield according to the selection guide on the store page

Hi, does this device work in Australia?

Hi, only can see the command "Turn ON SIM7000" running Arduino's example code available at "https://wiki.dfrobot.com/SI...". The shield seems to restart repetidly because NET LED (green) blinks for a while, stops to blink and then starts to blink again.

Using Arduino UNO R3 and an external 15.0vdc /1.5A power supply.

Can you tell me how to activate it?

Please follow the instruction on product wiki page to download the library, then copy it to the library folder inside your arduino directory. Finally, to use it in the arduino IDE, import the library. https://uploads.disquscdn.c...

Hello, have you connected the external battery?

Would like to use with T-Mobile in USA. Looks like the B5 is the one that is common between C product and t-mobile. Does anybody has experience connecting this shield on a t-mobile network?

Hey George,

After checking on TMOBILES website, they do support B5 and therefore the SIM7000C should work fine with that carrier. I found this information here: https://support.t-mobile.co...

Hey,
Can you take a look at our product wiki here. The first tutorial shows a complete code for sending HTTP data: https://wiki.dfrobot.com/SI...

or another example can be found on our github page here:

Hey Rafal,
Although I am unable to understand the language for the errors at the bottom, from what I can tell there is an issue with the linked SIM7000 library. Can you please double check both of these libraries are properly imported. You can find instructions on the wiki here: https://wiki.dfrobot.com/SI...

It seems I could only get my hands on sim7000C. Did I made a mistake!?
I am in Canada and with an IoT sim card that handles Rogers, Bell and Telus so CatM on B8 should be good.
Powered with a decent 9V i still can't get passed this with AT http example :
Check SIM card......
SIM card READY
Set net mode......
Set GPRS mode
Get signal quality......
signalStrength =0
Attaching service......
Fail to Attach service....over&over
Any help there!?
Tks.

Canada needs you to buy SIM7000E, while SIM7000C can only be used in China.

Hi, I am having the exact same problem.

I have used other AT commands to see if I can establish a connection such as sending an SMS but currently with no result.

The one thing I was able to do was to get the service provider name , Signal quality indication and connection status.

I used the following set of AT commands using the ATest demo in the examples list for this task:

Serial.println("Set parameters via AT+COPS=0,0 ");
sim7000.check_send_cmd("AT+COPS=0,0\r\n","OK"); // Operator ?
Serial.println("Get Operator via AT+COPS=? ");
sim7000.check_send_cmd("AT+COPS=?\r\n","OK"); // Operator ?
Serial.println("Service provider via AT+CSPN? ");
sim7000.check_send_cmd("AT+CSPN?\r\n","OK"); // Get Service Provider Name from SIM
Serial.println("Mobile Operation Band via AT+CBAND?");
sim7000.check_send_cmd("AT+CBAND?\r\n","OK"); // Get Mobile Operation Band
Serial.println("Get current stat via AT+CREG? ");
sim7000.check_send_cmd("AT+CREG?\r\n","OK"); // Current state
Serial.println("Enable network registration via AT+CREG=1 ");
sim7000.check_send_cmd("AT+CREG=1\r\n","OK");
Serial.println("Get Signal Quality via AT+CSQ ");
sim7000.check_send_cmd("AT+CSQ\r\n","OK");

The other area that I have found on sending an SMS, and I am still exploring is https://www.developershome....

could you send the video you test GPRS mode to [email protected]? i want to kown more detail to confirm the promblem,thank you.

run the ATtest sketch and open the serial monitor at 19200 (or 115200, cant remember which one).

Example sketches are working properly, but I cant seem to be able to do something as simple as sending sms. I tried using ATtest sketch (AT+CMGF & AT+CMGS), as well this sketch http://miliohm.com/sim800l-... (let me know if i need to change something in this, other than RX,TX). Desperately looking for help

Hi, can I use this SIM7000E to update arduino's firmware remotely? Also, can I use another controller like STM? Is the library files complex if I have to write it by myself?

1. Do you mean to upload arduino program by using SIM7000E? No, this can't be done. You could achieve remote upload by using BLE modules.
2. Yes, you can use STM for the controller. The library and code may be complex though.

Hi,
1.Can I use it with another controller (not arduino). if Yes, How should I connect the power to the this kit? Is there any considerations I should take into account?

2.What do you mean with NB-IOT card. do you mean a NB-IOT enabled SIM card?

Thanks a lot
