Mbed Cellular API for Generic GSM. #11087

Closed yasir-khilji-64 closed 5 years ago

yasir-khilji-64 commented 5 years ago

Description

So I've been trying to make the Mbed OS Cellular API with GSM Sim800/Sim808. But the mbed asserts network interface error.

Will anybody help us rectify the issue. We are on a really tight schedule here.

AriParkkila commented 5 years ago

@yasir-khilji-64 You are probably missing something like GENERIC_AT3GPP.provide-default in the mbed_app.json file. You need to change GENERIC_AT3GPP to actual Sim800's modem type.

yasir-khilji-64 commented 5 years ago

I tried your suggestion. But same issue prevails.

AriParkkila commented 5 years ago

@yasir-khilji-64 Error Message: Assertion failed: iface indicates that no network interface was found, which typically means that you use NetworkInterface::get_default_instance() without a default modem defined. Please check that your BUILD/../mbed_config.h file defines, e.g. MBED_CONF_GENERIC_AT3GPP_PROVIDE_DEFAULT 1.

yasir-khilji-64 commented 5 years ago

No it doesn't defines it. #define MBED_CONF_GENERIC_AT3GPP_PROVIDE_DEFAULT 0

yasir-khilji-64 commented 5 years ago

so now MBED_CONF_CELLULAR_DEBUG_AT 1 GENERIC_AT3GPP_BAUDRATE 19200 GENERIC_AT3GPP_PROVIDE_DEFAULT 1 but i'm not seeing anything on the console now. Not MBED OS error message now.

AriParkkila commented 5 years ago

@yasir-khilji-64 You probably need to change GENERIC_AT3GPP_BAUDRATE to the same for the modem. Those cellular configs should not change console settings at all, maybe you could check that you haven't modified those such as platform.stdio-baud-rate.

AriParkkila commented 5 years ago

I think this issue can be closed due to the remaining problems, if any, are related to stdio-tracing and not to the original question about Cellular API.

Should be resolved, if any other, please use a forum for further questions

trowbridgec commented 5 years ago

Yeah, looks to me like @yasir-khilji-64 needs to configure all of the settings from here in the mbed_app.json file.

yasir-khilji-64 commented 5 years ago

Hello community. So we got it working in September. But now it isn't establishing connection again. My mbed_app.json is here.

@yasir-khilji-64 What has changed , have you updated your app ?

yasir-khilji-64 commented 5 years ago

@0xc0170, So, I just imported the mbed-os-cellular-example from github, changed the mbed_app.json file according to my setup. and it is not working. I also cloned my previous repo for the working cellular example and still it isn't working. Any thoughts ?

yasir-khilji-64 commented 5 years ago

Sim800 Series AT Commands specify <PDP_type> (Packet Data Protocol type) IPInternet Protocol (IETF STD 5), while in the app it is setting it to IPV4V6

yasir-khilji-64 commented 5 years ago

Hey community, so I've found some issue in the AT_CellularContext.cpp. We are working with the Sim800 series Cellular Modem which has PDP context of 1-3 with only IP PDP Type. AT_CellularContext tries to set a new Context with ID 4 and IPv4v6 PDP Type. Please rectify this. We are really on tight schedule.

AnttiKauppila commented 5 years ago

So if your APN (zonginternet) only supports IPv4 you should disable IPv6 and IPv4v6 from: https://github.com/ARMmbed/mbed-os/blob/master/features/cellular/framework/targets/GENERIC/GENERIC_AT3GPP/GENERIC_AT3GPP.cpp#L24 and recompile+test If that does not work, you can try to delete those existing contexts by issuing +CGDCONT= for all of those contexts separately.

yasir-khilji-64 commented 5 years ago

@AnttiKauppila, the thing is, my APN supports both. Issue is with the GSM Board. It only supports 1-3 PDP Context Identifier with on IP PDP Context type.

yasir-khilji-64 commented 5 years ago

@AnttiKauppila Can you tell me how to delete these specific contexts?

AnttiKauppila commented 5 years ago

@yasir-khilji-64 This should do (run before you try to connect()): ATHandler *at = CellularDevice::get_default_instance()->get_at_handler(); for (int i=0; i<3; i++) { at->cmd_start("AT+CGDCONT="); at->write_int(i); at->cmd_stop(); at->resp_start(); at->resp_stop(); at->clear_error(); }

AnttiKauppila commented 5 years ago

or even for (int i=0; i<3; i++) { at->at_cmd_discard("+CGDCONT", "=", "%d", i); at->clear_error(); }

trowbridgec commented 5 years ago

You can also write your own version of the get_context() function. We ran into a similar issue here: https://github.com/ARMmbed/mbed-os/pull/10442.

The logic as it is today ignores an existing context (even if the APN is blank) if it doesn't exactly match the provided APN. This PR lets you override get_context() to suit your needs.

yasir-khilji-64 commented 5 years ago

@trowbridgec actually we are really tight on the schedule, so only want to use tested things

mirelachirica commented 5 years ago

Can you tell me how to delete these specific contexts?

Contexts can also be deleted by setting "clear-on-connect" flag to true in cellular's mbed_lib.json.

yasir-khilji-64 commented 4 years ago

Thanks for the help community. Cellular Interface is working perfectly.

yasir-khilji-64 commented 4 years ago

Hey community, does anyone know how to get GSM Location using PPP interface?

40Grit commented 4 years ago

Best to ask at forums.mbed.com these days.

@trowbridgec can provide some insight here though.

trowbridgec commented 4 years ago

In our experience, you cannot maintain a PPP connection with a cellular module while also sending AT commands to the module as well (e.g. asking for location information). You have to either:

  1. Tear down the PPP connection, send the necessary AT commands, and then bring back up the PPP connection

  2. Use 2 communications channels from the application MCU to the cellular module (e.g. 2 UARTs). From what I've seen, a lot of the cellular modules have multiple UART connections for this purpose.

I haven't found a better way to do this yet, but I could be missing something...
