FAQ
Can't find the answer you're looking for? We've shared some of our most frequently asked questions to help you out!
Can someone use SIM card other than the Sixfab SIM?
Yes, any 3rd party sim that supports LTE CAT M1 can be used with the kit.
How do I use the UART connection?
The UART of the Sixfab HAT cannot be used with the Telit modules.
Can I use it with other devices other than Raspberry Pi?
Technically, the Sixfab Base HAT in the KIT is a bridge between the mini PCIe module and the Single Board Computer (SBC). Compatibility between the mini PCIe module and SBC depends on the kernel, OS, and driver support.
For instance, the Telit module in the KIT is Linux compatible. If the kernel of Linux doesn't contain the drivers by default, developer can always follow the Linux Driver guides provided by the OEM.

Which versions of the Raspberry Pi are Kit compatible with?
The HAT is compatible with all Raspberry Pi which contains a 40W GPIO header.
Does this require any proprietary Sixfab software to run?
No, it is OS independent. We provide the hardware; You control the software You can interface via raw AT commands, PPP, or QMI. You can write your applications in Python, C++, Node-RED, or any language your OS supports.

I am writing custom code and hit a roadblock. Where can I get help?
Because this is a bare-metal development kit, the best place to troubleshoot custom software, Linux networking, and hardware integration is the Sixfab Community Forum. It is highly active with fellow engineers and our technical team.
Where do I go for deep-level technical questions about the Telit module itself?
For highly specific queries regarding cellular network registration quirks, advanced AT command logic, or module firmware behaviors, the Telit Technical Forum is a fantastic crowdsourced resource monitored by Telit engineers.
