Hardware Serial #8

Open Travis92 opened 6 years ago

Travis92 commented 6 years ago

Hi, i am currently working with your library and i would like to implement it with HW serial2 on a Mega. Are you working for developing it?

Thanks

P.

Hi,

No, I'm not working at the moment in this feature. You are very welcome to contribute to the library

Thanks!

@Travis92 I am not sure about the Mega, but it was very easy to do on my ESP32 based board. Just modified a couple of lines in Sim800.h to use HardwareSerial instead of SoftwareSerial.

Just make sure to comment out the serialSim800.listen() line in Sim800.c sendCmd() as it is not needed for HardwareSerial.

@ankgt

Could open a pull request or could you share your esp32 based code for this same library?

Thanks in advance

I have made a lot of changes to the library so it will be confusing if I post it. I believe the main change that is required to work with the ESP32 is very simple and it is in Sim800.h:

SIM800(unsigned int baudRate, unsigned int rxPin, unsigned int txPin, unsigned int rstPin, bool debug):serialSIM800(1) { serialSIM800.begin(baudRate, SERIAL_8N1, rxPin, txPin, false); debugMode = debug; resetPin = rstPin; };

Also change the following at the end of Sim800.h: Remove: SoftwareSerial serialSIM800 Add: HardwareSerial serialSIM800

You will have to change the definitions for Http.h also to accept the rxPin and txPin. I don't believe anything else was required.

There are some small bugs in the library which cause it to crash in some cases, and I do plan to open a separate thread for that, just not got a change to get to it. Will do it shortly.

Hope it helps.

@ankgt How did you get on with this? Did you manage to post your code somewhere?

ankgt commented 5 years ago

@kierenblack I have changed my modem to Quectel M66 instead of the Simcom, but continued using this base library. However, I have heavily customised it my specific requirements.

Where are you getting stuck?
