Getting Started Preparation #

Step 1: Install Qnavigator software.

🔗Download QNavigator

Download QNavigator from Quectel
After downloading QNavigator, open it and continue the software tutorial by clicking Next

Step 2: After installation Act like a software wizard.

Step 3: Connect the Evaluation Board by USB to the computer.

Step 4: select your board in the port section, set the baudrate to 115200, and click Connect.

Step 5: Click on the gear and see if the module is connected.

Step 6: By entering AT Command, you can use different parts of the module.

🔗Hint

 Make sure the power supply voltage is stable. The board will power up and turn on automatically as soon as power is applied — there is no separate power-off switch required.

FAQ #

What is the EG915U-EU Evaluation Board?

A full-featured, compact evaluation board for the Quectel EG915U-EU LTE Cat.1 module — supports Europe/Africa/Middle East bands, dual nano-SIM, GNSS, Wi-Fi/BT scan, and voice over LTE (VoLTE).

Does it have dual SIM support?

Yes — two independent nano-SIM (4FF) slots on the board. Switch between them using AT+CUSIM command.

How do I turn the module on?

Just connect the USB-C cable → the board powers automatically. Press the PWRKEY button for ~2 seconds to turn the module on (STATUS LED will light up).

How do I communicate with the module?

Connect via USB-C → multiple COM ports appear:
• Highest-numbered port = Main AT port (115200 bps default)
• Lower ports = Debug / GNSS NMEA / Modem ports
Main UART (TX/RX) and Debug UART (D TX/D RX) are also broken out on the 20-pin header.

Does it support GNSS?

Yes — integrated GPS/BeiDou/GLONASS/Galileo/QZSS with dedicated GNSS U.FL connector for active antenna.

Is Wi-Fi / Bluetooth available?

EG915U supports Wi-Fi scan and Bluetooth scan (passive). A shared DIV/Wi-Fi/BT U.FL connector is provided for external antenna.

What do the three LEDs indicate?

STATUS: Module powered & running
NET STA: Network registration & activity
PSM IND: Deep-sleep / power-saving mode active

How to enter firmware download (USB_BOOT) mode?

Hold the BOOT button while pressing PWRKEY (or plug in USB while BOOT is pressed) → module enters DFU mode for QFlash/QWinLog tool.

Can I use the board with an external MCU?

Yes — full 20-pin header provides:
• Main UART, Debug UART, AUX UART
• PCM digital audio (for VoLTE)
• I²C, ADC, 5 V output, multiple GNDs

What are the board dimensions?

78 × 58 mm — compact and easy to integrate into prototypes or test jigs.
