Issue with Disabling Band 8 on EM7421 Modem via AT Commands

Hi,

Modem : EM7421
Firmware : SWI9X50C_01.14.03.00 b06bd3 jenkins 2020/09/23 10:53:35

I’m facing an issue with disabling Band 8 on my EM7421 modem using AT commands. Here’s a summary of the situation:

I have the following mask table for disabling Band 8:

0002000004400000, 000007A088080045, 0000000000000000, 0000000000000000, 0000000000000000, 0000000000000000

I created a new mask profile with the command:

AT!BAND=10, "Sans_B8", 0002000004400000, 000007A088080045, 0000000000000000, 0000000000000000, 0000000000000000, 0000000000000000

However, when I apply this profile with the command AT!BAND=10, the modem defaults to profile 00 without displaying any error message.

I tried selecting another profile, and it works.

I also attempted to change an existing band (03), but I encountered the same initial problem.

Even in developer mode, I couldn’t resolve the issue.

Do you have any ideas or suggestions to help me solve this issue?

Thanks in advance for your help!

Best regards,

i don’t quite see problem:
