Hi can someone help with the following?
How often does the the els61 cell moduel ping the network?
Is it a built in feature or is it the responsibility of teh host app?
Are there any documents explaining this feature?
Many thanks
Paul
Hello,
The signaling between the cellular module and the network is standardized and described in 3GPP docuemnts. And it is controlled by the network.

Hi,
If you want the module to ping the network and thus keep a connection alive then please see this article: https://iot-developer.thalesgroup.com/showcase/java-connection-state-act...
Here we offer a small Java program to PING a given server at whatever frequency you choose.
