Function documentation
SIMComSIM7080:: SIMComSIM7080(Stream* modemStream,
int8_t powerPin,
int8_t statusPin,
int8_t modemSleepRqPin,
const char* apn)
Construct a new SIMComSIM7080 object The constuctor initializes all of the provided member variables, constructs a loggerModem parent class with the appropriate timing for the module, calls the constructor for a TinyGSM modem on the provided modemStream, and creates a TinyGSM Client linked to the modem.
Parameters | |
---|---|
modemStream | The Arduino stream instance for serial communication. |
powerPin | The digital pin number of the mcu pin controlling power to the modem (active HIGH ). |
statusPin | The digital pin number of the mcu pin connected to the modem status output pin. |
modemSleepRqPin | The digital pin number of a pin on the mcu used to request the modem enter its lowest possible power state. |
apn | The Access Point Name (APN) for the SIM card. |
Should be set to a negative number if the modem should be continuously powered or the power cannot be controlled by the MCU.
Should be set to a negative number if the modem status pin cannot be read. This is the pin labeled STATUS
in SIMCom's integration guide.
Should be set to a negative number if there is no pin usable for deep sleep modes or it is not accessible to the MCU. This is the pin labeled PWRKEY
in SIMCom's integration guide.
bool SIMComSIM7080:: modemWake(void) override
Wake up the modem.
Returns | bool True if the modem is responsive and ready for action. |
---|
This sets pin modes, powers up the modem if necessary, sets time stamps, runs the specific modem's wake function, tests for responsiveness to AT commands, and then re-runs the TinyGSM init() if necessary. If the modem fails to respond, this attempts a "hard" pin reset if possible.
For most modules, this function is created by the MS_
Set-up pin modes. Because the modem calls wake BEFORE the first setup, we must set the pin modes in the wake function.
Run the specific modemWakeFxn().
Check that the modem is responding to AT commands.
Hard reset is there's no AT response.
Exit if we can't hard reset.
Clean any junk out of the modem buffer.
Re-run the modem init, or setup if necessary. This will turn off echo, which often turns itself back on after a reset/power loss. This also checks the SIM card state.
If we run setup, take success value entirely from that.
bool SIMComSIM7080:: connectInternet(uint32_t maxConnectionTime = 50000L) override
Wait for the modem to successfully register on the cellular network and then request that it establish either EPS or GPRS data connection.
Parameters | |
---|---|
maxConnectionTime | The maximum length of time in milliseconds to wait for network registration and data sconnection. Defaults to 50,000ms (50s). |
Returns | bool True if EPS or GPRS data connection has been established. False if the modem wasunresponsive, unable to register with the cellular network, or unable to establish a EPS or GPRS connection. |
Power up, if necessary
Check if the modem was awake, wake it if not
wait
uint32_t SIMComSIM7080:: getNISTTime(void) override
Get the time from NIST via TIME protocol (rfc868).
Returns | uint32_t The number of seconds since Jan 1, 1970 IN UTC |
---|
This would be much more efficient if done over UDP, but I'm doing it over TCP because I don't have a UDP library for all the modems.
Check for and bail if not connected to the internet.
Try up to 12 times to get a timestamp from NIST.
Make TCP connection.
Wait up to 5 seconds for a response.
bool SIMComSIM7080:: getModemSignalQuality(int16_t& rssi,
int16_t& percent) override
Query the modem for the current signal quality and write the results to the supplied non-constant references.
Parameters | |
---|---|
rssi | A reference to an int16_t which will be set with the received signal strength indicator |
percent | A reference to an int16_t which will be set with the "percent" signal strength |
Returns | bool True indicates that the communication with the modem was successful and the values referenced by the pointers should be valid. |
bool SIMComSIM7080:: getModemBatteryStats(int8_t& chargeState,
int8_t& percent,
int16_t& milliVolts) override
Query the modem for battery information and write the values to the supplied non-constant references.
Parameters | |
---|---|
chargeState | A reference to an uint8_t which will be set with the current charge state (significance of value varies) |
percent | A reference to an int8_t which will be set with the current charge percent - this may or may not be a valid value depending on the module and breakout. |
milliVolts | A reference to an uint16_t which will be set with the current battery voltage in mV - this may or may not be a valid value depending on the module and breakout. |
Returns | bool True indicates that the communication with the modem was successful and the values referenced by the pointers should be valid. |
float SIMComSIM7080:: getModemChipTemperature(void) override
Get the current temperature provided by the modem module.
Returns | float The temperature in degrees Celsius |
---|
bool SIMComSIM7080:: isInternetAvailable(void) override protected
Check whether there is an active internet connection available.
Returns | bool True if there is an active data connection to the internet. |
---|
bool SIMComSIM7080:: modemSleepFxn(void) override protected
Perform the parts of the modem sleep process that are unique to a specific module, as opposed to the parts of setup that are common to all modem modules.
Returns | bool True if the unique part of the sleep function ran sucessfully. |
---|
bool SIMComSIM7080:: modemWakeFxn(void) override protected
Perform the parts of the modem wake up process that are unique to a specific module, as opposed to the parts of setup that are common to all modem modules.
Returns | bool True if the unique part of the wake function ran sucessfully - does NOT indicate that the modem is now responsive. |
---|
bool SIMComSIM7080:: extraModemSetup(void) override protected
Perform the parts of the modem set up process that are unique to a specific module, as opposed to the parts of setup that are common to all modem modules.
Returns | bool True if the extra setup succeeded. |
---|
For most modules, this function is created by the MS_
bool SIMComSIM7080:: isModemAwake(void) override protected
Check if the modem was awake using all possible means.
Returns | bool True if the modem is already awake. |
---|
If possible, we always want to check if the modem was awake before attempting to wake it up. Most cellular modules are woken and put to sleep by identical pulses on a sleep or "power" pin. We don't want to accidently pulse an already on modem to off.
For most modules, this function is created by the MS_
If the wake up is one where a pin is held (0 wake time) and * that pin is defined, then we're going to check the level of the * held pin as the indication of whether attempts were made to * wake the modem before entering the setup function.
If there's a status pin, use that to determine if the modem is * awake.
If we can't determine status by pin level, try checking if the * modem responds to AT commands.
