Practical

When you run apuctl off, it disables the hardware radio of the wifi cards in both internal slots (if present).

When you run apuctl sim-two it will select the second simcard slot.

Typical output

apuctl v1.01 2022 (c) MonkeyCat (code.monkeycat.nl)

simcard slot two is selected
wifi mPCIe2 on
wifi mPCIe3 on

Errors

It return a non zero error code when failed, see the source what's what.

Notes

Some (debian) system you have no access to the gpio stuff wether you are root or not. And don't bother with one-reset two-reset or coldboot if you don't know what you are doing.
