15.1.3Network status indication
When a GPIO pin is configured to provide network status indication, its progress depends on the CS network
registration state (see +CREG) and on the module transmission state:
• No service: indicates no network coverage or not registered state
• Registered home network 2G: indicates registered state on home network in 2G RAT
• Registered home network 3G: indicates registered state on home network in 3G RAT
• Registered home network Cat NB1: indicates registered state on home network in Cat NB1
• Registered roaming 2G: indicates registered state with visitor 2G network (roaming in 2G RAT)
• Registered roaming 3G: indicates registered state with visitor 3G network (roaming in 3G RAT)
• Registered roaming Cat NB1: indicates registered state with visitor Cat NB1 network (roaming in Cat NB1)
• Data transmission: indicates voice or data call active either in 2G, 3G or 4G RAT
• Data transmission roaming: indicates voice or data call active either in 2G, 3G or 4G RAT with visitor network
SARA-R4 / SARA-N4
When registered on 4G (LTE) network, the GPIO pin progress is the same as for data transmission (Figure
8) because a PDP context/EPS bearer is available.
The following figures report the allowed progresses for GPIO pin set as network indication: V

and V
L
values
are provided in the corresponding module data sheet in the "Generic Digital Interfaces pins" section.
