good day, we purchased T-SIM7600G-H for our project. Unfortunately, we are always encountering this error and can't proceed.

SIM7600G This board does not have any FTDI device. It only has a USB TO TTL and USB bridge

This board does not have an onboard debugger, and can only upload programs via UART

You don't need to buy an FTDI device, just plug the USB-C to the TTL port, select the serial port in the Arduino IDE and click upload.
If you encounter a problem where you can't upload, take a wire, connect GPIO0 to GND, then power on, and click upload. After the upload is complete, remove the wire, exit download mode, and press reset. It should work now.

When I asked you this, I guessed that you didn't do anything to turn on the modem. Please check the examples we provided. The modem must be turned on before it can be used.

void modem_on() {

What does it mean? I don't understand?

The modem must be manually activated every time it is turned on

You should use a minimal example to test whether you can send the location via SMS without adding any business logic. Here is a simple demonstration.

This is related to your business. I can only provide an example. You need to solve the others by yourself.
