Hello @scroggyg
the added 5 V power switch I use to fully turn the modem off when I want to use M5Tab5 without modem (without the need to de-solder it.
The other modification to control the POWERKEY of the modem via GPIO (instead of the default auto power on) of the modem is required for two cases:
firstly to restart the modem in case it becomes unresponsive to AT commands and
secondly to get it out of PSM (power save mode).
Thanks
Felix
