Dev kit for EM8695

Can anyone confirm that the Air Prime dev kit (EM DEV KIT-6001173) works with the EM8695 please? and/or what have you tested with?

You can see this migration guide

It should be pin compatible (except some pins) with EM7411

Thanks. So 6001173 kit would be fine for testing basic functions (sending, receiving, measuring power consumption)?

Yes, I remember I can have correct USB enumeration with this dev kit and EM8695

Is there the original user guide for this dev kit? The only one I can find is two pages. For now, we will try installing the windows driver and then see if the EM/MC series connection manager and/or fdt sees the device?

the 2 page guide is the only user guide i have for 6001173

Does our approach sound right?

you can install the Windows driver and see if you can communicate with the AT command port first:

BTW, EM8695 is using the MBIM interface, so you don’t need to use the EM/MC connection manager.
Default Windows application should be able to establish data connection via MBIM interface.
