Libuarte + GSM Communication

[Muqarrab]

Hi,

I am communicating SIM808 with nRF52840. I have made changes in libuarte example and send AT commands to send SMS. I have the following question.

1. How can I know that I have received complete data?
2. How can I send (char) 26 (termination character) at the end of SMS?
3. Is there any library available for sending sms and MQTT communication?

Thanks!

Hello, I assume you are using the nRF5 SDK v17.0.2

How can I know that I have received complete data?

 Looking through the libuarte library documentation, there is a TX done event which should give an indication.

 

How can I send (char) 26 (termination character) at the end of SMS?

 I'm afraid I do not have that information. This sounds like information that should be stated in the modem, SIM808.

 

Is there any library available for sending sms and MQTT communication?

 Have you tried looking at our nRF Connect SDK? In the Zephyr repository there is a Generic GSM modem sample, tested with SIM808. This should also easily be combined with one of the MQTT samples available in the samples.

Kind regards,
Øyvind

Thanks, @Øyvind for your reply.

Yes, I am using this.

I have already developed an application as a peripheral.  I have to add this communication part in that application later. Can I use that example to add to my application?

Thanks

What version of NCS are you running? Have tried to customize the code in any way? Building the mqtt_simple from NCS v1.6.1 does not provide any errors on my side using Segger Embedded Studio Nordic Edition 5.50c. 

Please make sure to use an official tag of NCS, with NCS 1.6.1 being latest, but the release candidate for 1.7.0 is also available. The latest/master branch tends to be more unstable as this may have new features under testing. 

How did you install NCS? Please try with the Toolchain Manager found in the nRF Connect for Desktop software.

Kind regards,
Øyvind

I am running 1.6.1. I have not changed anything.

[Øyvind]

That is strange, you should not receive any errors when building the mqtt_simple sample. When installing v1.6.1 via Toolchain Manager, please make sure that you are not behind a firewall which can block certain files. 

Also, we have seen strange behavior with the build system, when the path is too long. To which path did you install the SDK environment?

When opening the project via "Open nRF Connect SDK project" in SES, can you please take a screenshot of the settings that you use? I.e. board name, build directory, etc.

Thank you. 

Kind  regards,
Øyvind

[Muqarrab]

I have selected these settings.

I have tried with both option(clean build directory)

[Øyvind]

I think I see the what may be causing the error. The mqtt_simple is designed for use with the nRF9160, and not the nRF52840. If possible, I would recommend looking at the nRF9160 which includes an LTE IoT modem.

[Muqarrab]

Actually, I have nRF52840 and SIM808 and perform MQTT using both. What can I do?

Can you please elaborate what you are trying to achieve? You will need to port your application from nRF5 SDK to NCS, based Generic GSM Modem sample add the MQTT library.

[Muqarrab]

Actually, I have nRF52840 and SIM808. And I want to connect with cloudmqtt and send and receive messages using the PUB/SUB method. 

[Muqarrab]

How can I directly open this sample project? 

[Øyvind]

Similar to opening the mqtt_simple sample: 

For more information / support on the GSM sample, I recommend contacting the Zephyr community
