Is it a complicated matter to set up the SIM7600X on Raspberry Pi 5, so I followed video instructions carefully, but get a error-message in line 7 when running the Python code.
“ser = serial.Serial(“/dev/ttyS0”,115200)” but is not able to figure out what is wrong.
All the programs act the same.
My computer is connected to fiber net.
Can anyone guide me here?
Thank you in advance.
Best regards

What is the power supply that you’re using?
The power to the SIM7600X is coming from the Raspberry Pi by the USB-connection.
Raspberry Pi is powered my the recommended power supply bought together with the Pi 5.
Please use a separate power supply. This is quite common with SIM modules. They do not work without a separate power supply.
Hi there @Anders303315, welcome to the forums, glad to have you here.
A couple of quick questions:
- Were you using this tutorial and Pi setup? If not, what tutorial were you using?
- Were you able to get the SIM7600X working with a different power supply?
- If not, what was the error that you were getting when you were running the code?
