how to write a functions(program) for transmitting and receiving data over uart using nrf 51822?

Hi, there i am using nrf51822 to communicate with quectel ec25 .i want to send AT commands over uart and receive some response from quectel.for eg. i am sending a "AT" command i should get "ok" response in return.i am referring nrf5 sdk10.0.0 uart example and in that example there is loop back test and i have disabled that but i didnt understand the code flow and the functions that are used in this example.what are the changes i have to make in my code to transmit and receive data over uart .This is the example:can somebody explain me which part of code is sending and receiving data.please urgent help needed.and i dont want to use ble _uart example just want to use a simple uart communication.

#include <stdbool.h> #include <stdint.h> #include <stdio.h> #include "app_uart.h" #include "app_error.h" #include "nrf_delay.h" #include "nrf.h" #include "bsp.h"

//#define ENABLE_LOOPBACK_TEST /**< if defined, then this example will be a loopback test, which means that TX should be connected to RX to get data loopback. */

#define MAX_TEST_DATA_BYTES (15U) /< max number of test bytes to be used for tx and rx. */ #define UART_TX_BUF_SIZE 256 /< UART TX buffer size. */ #define UART_RX_BUF_SIZE 1 /**< UART RX buffer size. */

void uart_error_handle(app_uart_evt_t * p_event) { if (p_event->evt_type == APP_UART_COMMUNICATION_ERROR) { APP_ERROR_HANDLER(p_event->data.error_communication); } else if (p_event->evt_type == APP_UART_FIFO_ERROR) { APP_ERROR_HANDLER(p_event->data.error_code); } }

//#ifdef ENABLE_LOOPBACK_TEST /** @brief Function for setting the @ref ERROR_PIN high, and then enter an infinite loop. */ static void show_error(void) {

LEDS_ON(LEDS_MASK);
while(true)
{
    // Do nothing.
}

}

/** @brief Function for testing UART loop back.

  • @details Transmitts one character at a time to check if the data received from the loopback is same as the transmitted data.

  • @note @ref TX_PIN_NUMBER must be connected to @ref RX_PIN_NUMBER) */ /*static void uart_loopback_test() { uint8_t * tx_data = (uint8_t *)("\n\rLOOPBACK_TEST\n\r"); uint8_t rx_data;

    // Start sending one byte and see if you get the same for (uint32_t i = 0; i < MAX_TEST_DATA_BYTES; i++) { uint32_t err_code; while(app_uart_put(tx_data[i]) != NRF_SUCCESS);

    nrf_delay_ms(10);
    err_code = app_uart_get(&rx_data);
    
    if ((rx_data != tx_data[i]) || (err_code != NRF_SUCCESS))
    {
        show_error();
    }
    

    } return; }

#endif*/

/**

  • @brief Function for main application entry. */ int main(void) { LEDS_CONFIGURE(LEDS_MASK); LEDS_OFF(LEDS_MASK); uint32_t err_code; const app_uart_comm_params_t comm_params = { RX_PIN_NUMBER, TX_PIN_NUMBER, RTS_PIN_NUMBER, CTS_PIN_NUMBER, APP_UART_FLOW_CONTROL_ENABLED, false, UART_BAUDRATE_BAUDRATE_Baud38400 };

    APP_UART_FIFO_INIT(&comm_params, UART_RX_BUF_SIZE, UART_TX_BUF_SIZE, uart_error_handle, APP_IRQ_PRIORITY_LOW, err_code);

    APP_ERROR_CHECK(err_code);

//#ifndef ENABLE_LOOPBACK_TEST printf("\n\rStart: \n\r");

while (true)
{
    uint8_t cr;
    while(app_uart_get(&cr) != NRF_SUCCESS);
    while(app_uart_put(cr) != NRF_SUCCESS);

    if (cr == 'q' || cr == 'Q')
    {
        printf(" \n\rExit!\n\r");

        while (true)
        {
            // Do nothing.

    }
}

//#else

// This part of the example is just for testing the loopback .

// while (true) // { // uart_loopback_test(); // } //#endif*/ }

  • hey matt Thanks,i have gone through the ble_uart example and it worked well.but i have problem while sending AT commands to quectel ec25 .you had mentioned about finite state machine.i dont have any clue about writing fsm algorithm for sending AT commands to EC25 Board.could you send me the fsm code for sendinfg at command .i want just sample fsm code for sending data over uart.
