Cinterion MC75i reports "SIM not inserted" during normal use | Telit Cinterion IoT Developer Community

July 3, 2019 - 6:54pm, 5496 views

Good morning,

we use the module (ati1 response):
MC75i
REVISION 02.004
A-REVISION 01.000.15

as communication module( by gprs connection) in a fleet of trains.
During normal operation, especially in specific routes, the MC75i module lose the SIM and conseguently also the communication is lost.
After an unpredictable time the SIM reappears.
Sim cards used are provided by "TIM IT", but use a private APN.

I report some logs when this behaviours happen:
