B-L462E-CELL1 not connecting to TruPhone

Just received this and it doesn't connect. I contacted Truphone and they were not much help. They did mention to make sure the apn is iot.truphone.com.

I know almost nothing about this device and the instructions are sparse but I did find a menu item for Cellular Service. It did not have anything in the apn field. I set the menu as follows:

Sim Slot 0: 1 (MODEM EMBEDDED SIM)

APN: iot.truphone.com

CID: 1

username: 

password: 

modem target_state: 2

attachment timeout: 180000 ms

Network register mode: 0 = Auto

Operator name format: 9 = Not present

Operator name: 00101

Access techno present: Not present

Network register mode: 7 = CatM1

Low power inactivity timeout: 1000 ms

NFMC activation : 0

It still does not connect. Are these values ok?

Also it seems the my.murata.com website is not accepting new logins. So how can I get further information about this board?

    I manage to use TRUE( Local ISP operator in Thailand) NB-IOT sim card successfully but only for NB-IOT not LTE-M1

    By setting

    at at%nwoper="DEFAULT"

    at at%setacfg=radiom.config.preferred_rat_list,"NBIOT"

    Default firmware "none" and "CatM" don't work. (REGISTRATION_DENIED)

    Is it should be "CATM" or "CatM"?, very frustrate without AT command document

    However, no luck on Truphone both CatM and NBIOT

    After long waiting period always return

    AT%CEER?<CR><LF><CR>

      <CR><LF><LF><CR>

      %CEER: 1,"NAS-EMM","ATTACH","REJECT",#15,NO_SUITABLE_CELLS_IN_TRACKING_AREA<CR><LF><LF><CR>

      <CR><LF><LF><CR>

      OK<CR><LF><LF><CR>

    I guess my location not coverage by Truphone, even Thailand is in their Country list.

    FYI

    About a few weeks ago, I managed to make my board to use eSIM by truphone to connect to Internet.

    Today suddenly it stopped working after I flashed the original binary code (l462_t1se_socket_v520.bin in STM32CubeExpansion_CELLULAR_V5.2.0\Projects\B_L462E\Demonstrations\Cellular\Binaries) into it.

    It always says "SIM not inserted", even I select slot 0. I tried slot 1 as well, same result.

    It's really strange and annoying. I attached the print-2-screen log for your info.

    Can anyone give some comments?

    Dear HDaji.1

    It is indeed strange since the eSIM is always present. The X-CUBE-CELLULAR firmware does not change perfom any control to the eSIM. Please, can you try to use the X-CUBE-CELLULAR 700 to get more information about the SIM selection configuration.

    Hi Solofo,

    Can you be more specific on what I need to do?

    There are many pieces of info sheets and how-to documents about this board, um2567, 2426, 2743, etc. I just cannot find anything related to trouble-shooting eSIM.

    If SIM card is not found, it's not helpful to use AT command to retrieve SIM info, is it?

    BTW, I think I have changed (messed up) content of EEPROM. Is it the cause? I guess not.

    Dear Solofo,

    I cannot find anything in those documents (um2426, 2567, 2743, etc) that is related to eSIM card trouble-shooting? FYI, I have activated it on Truphone.com and used it for a few weeks.

    BTW, I think I have changed (messed up) the content of EEPROM when I tried the board. Is it the cause?

    I am in the USA in the state of Wisconsin experiencing the same issues. I just purchased the B-L462E-CELL1 board two weeks ago and TRUPHONE has been very little help. I get an average of a new question from them every 2-3 days. Has anyone compiled a list of the steps to solve the REGISTRATION DENIED problem?

    Some of the first version of the boards are delivered with “network operator�? parameter in the modem firmware, configured as “DEFAULT�? instead of “Truphone�?.

    To change to “Truphone�?, use CLI to send the AT command : AT%NWOPER=“TRUPHONE�?

    User can also check the current configuration of NWOPER by entering AT CLI: AT%NWOPER?

    to send at command command in console just enter

    atcmd AT%NWOPER?

    and return

    Note: before you can enter "cst polling off" and enter in CLI to avoid too much information displayed.

    After you can restore with "cst polling on"
