Hello again,

[quote user="yusuke217"]these three settings in prj.conf file.[/quote]

Information about configuration options can be found here, in the Zephyr documentation.

[quote user="yusuke217"]What do you think about this? I'm not familiar with network communication side.[/quote]

From the description given in the documentation, I don't see any problems if it works. I have not tested this myself, so if you meet any issues, please let me know.

Kind regards,
Øyvind

Thanks so much! It works out!

Can I ask one more question?

I want to send MNC and MNN data of LTE cell station through MQTT so that I'm trying to integrate mqtt_simple and simple_at programs.
https://github.com/NordicPlayground/fw-nrfconnect-nrf/tree/master/samples/nrf9160/mqtt_simple
https://github.com/Rallare/fw-nrfconnect-nrf/tree/nrf9160_samples/samples/nrf9160/simple_at

You can get MNC and MNN data by "AT+COPS?" command.

Compared to mqtt_simple prj.conf file, simple_at program additionally includes these three settings in prj.conf file.

CONFIG_STDOUT_CONSOLE=y
CONFIG_NET_BUF_USER_DATA_SIZE=1
CONFIG_NET_RAW_MODE=y

I omitted these lines in prj.conf and integrated the two programs. It works out, but I'm suspicious that I might do wrong coding. What do you think about this? I'm not familiar with network communication side.

Full code is below. app_socket_start() is added after fds_init().
Thanks.

RE: How to handle at command in nRF9160?

Øyvind — Tue, 21 May 2019 06:45:54 GMT

Sorry, I misread your initial question. I thought you just needed a way to send and receive AT commands.

The AT_client sample uses threads in Zephyr OS to handle AT commands.

[quote user=""]I tested simple_at program below, but it doesn't work.[/quote]

To solve the hard fault issue, please try to add the following in the prj.conf file:

CONFIG_MAIN_STACK_SIZE=4096

Thanks!

Kind regards,
Øyvind

Yusuke — Tue, 21 May 2019 04:19:01 GMT

Thank you for your reply.

I've already checked the at client sample.

github.com/.../at_client

I don't see code to send at command in main.c.

Can u tell me which lines send at command?

RE: How to handle at command in nRF9160?

Øyvind — Mon, 20 May 2019 12:21:43 GMT

Hello,

Please have a look at the AT Client sample project. This allows you to send and receive AT commands in a terminal e.g. LTE Link Monitor.

Kind regards,
Øyvind
