Introduction
There are several variants of the Sodaq UBee available. This library supports 2G [SARA G3xx], 3G [SARA Uxx] and LTE M1 [SARA R4xx], but not NB IoT only [SARA N2xx].
The classes for the UBeeU201 can be used for any other u-blox 2G or 3G based module.
The classes for the UBeeR410M can be used for any other u-blox LTE-M module.
Pin Numbers for connecting Sodaq UBees to a Mayfly
This applies to all Sodaq UBee's
- Power to the u-blox module is controlled by a switch connected to bee socket pin 9, which is Mayfly pin 23 NOTE: The power for the u-blox module is supplied by either a battery for 2/3G (U201/G3) modules or by bee socket pin 1 for LTE-M modules. In the case of the LTE-M module where power comes from pin 1, it could also be cut by setting pin 1 low, but neither the Mayfly nor this library support it.
- The u-blox
V_INT
pin is connected to UBEE pin 12 which is connected to Mayfly pin 19. - The UBee pin 5 is connected to the u-blox
RESET_N
, but this is not connected to any pin on the Mayfly. - The u-blox
PWR_ON
pin (which controls deep sleep) is connected to UBee pin 16 which is connected to Mayfly pin 20. - I like to use the red LED to show the bee wake/sleep in addition to the LED on the UBee itself.
