Send hex data over UDP connection

[TC]

In nRF Connect SDK 1.7.1, how to send hex data over the connection by AT#UDPSEND?

I use AT#XUDPCLI to create UDP client and connect to server.

For the AT#UDPSEND, it seems like CAN NOT assign datatype for the data.

Any suggestion?

Hi,

If you do not provide any data, the Serial LTE Modem will enter data mode, which let's you send raw data (formatted however you want, the byte that is received on the UART is the byte that is sent over the air) until the escape sequence is entered. By default, the escape sequence is "+++" without any <CR> or <LF> line endings.

See the documentation for the #XUDPSEND command and data mode for more information:

Hi Didrik:

Thanks for your quick response.

Let's make it quickly, for example, if I want to send 0x1234 by #XUDPSEND from LTELinkMonitor.

What the commands I need to send? Is following correct?

AT#XUDPSEND=

\x12\x34+++

The terminal in the LTE Link Monitor is not advanced enough to be able to do this.

Yes, 'AT#XUDPSEND=' is correct. How you send the data following that, depends on what terminal you are using.

Again, this depends on what terminal you are using.

Note that with the LTE Link Monitor, you will neither be able to send the bytes you want, nor will you be able to exit datamode afterwards.

When I need absolute control over what I am sending, I am usually using RealTerm.

How to receive the data after #XUDPSEND and "+++"?

The behavior is waitting or what command I need to send?

Can I send other AT command brfore receive the data?

[TC]

Afte  #XUDPSEND and "+++" I can't see following message:

#XUDPSEND: XX
OK

Is that means I didn't send out any data?
