Straightforward Arduino library for the SIM808

arduino-sim808's Issues

setBearerSetting in SIM808.Gprs.cpp return nothing

hi, it's good to see your work, i'm trying to run example of the code "HttpPost" with some editing code.

now i'm facing issue when checking sim808.enableGprs, it's stuck looping with:

N: Powering on SIM808's GPRS...
N: Powering on SIM808's GPRS...
...

after that i #define _DEBUG on the top of the code, but still the result still the same.
so i change directly _SIM808_DEBUG with 1. then it show some more like this:

N: Powering on SIM808's GPRS...

-->AT+CIPSHUT
<--
<--SHUT OK

-->AT+CGATT=1
<--
<--OK

-->AT+SAPBR=0,1
<--
<--ERROR

-->AT+SAPBR=3,1,"CONTYPE","GPRS"
<--
<--OK

-->AT+SAPBR=3,1,"",""
<--
<--ERROR
0
N: Powering on SIM808's GPRS...

the AT+SAPBR=3,1,"CONTYPE","GPRS" is after error AT+SAPBR=3,1,"",""
so i change it just like your bugfix in here. but the rest of SAPBR setting still error. it's just like nothing inserted.

i maybe can change it directly just like what you did with the CONTYPE setting, bbut i think it will be trouble in the future if it not changed in the main code.
could you please trace what happened in here?

well, i'm not really understand with your AT_COMMAND_PARAMETER line either. where the variable BEARER and CONTYPE setting started?

Arduino Uno with SIM808 from DFRobot

Hi Bertrand
I am using your SIM808 library on an an Arduino Uno and a SIM808 GSM GPRS GPS shield from DFRobot.com. I have wired it to fit the way uou use the control ports 5 to 8 and it seems to work. I use the "Test" procedure and the SIM808 is powered up and it seems to find the GSM net (the blue NET LED is blinking every third second), but the program never returns from the Init procedure, as seen in the attached screendump.

I have enabled debug in the SimComAT.h like this #define _SIM808_DEBUG 1 //_DEBUG , but no further messages arrived.
Finally I have connected SIM808 pin 16 RESET to D5 of UNO and shield without any change.
Do you any comments or hints for further investigations?

Trying to use this library with the DFRobot SIM808 GSM/GPRS/GPS Arduino IOT Board (combined Leonardo & SIM808 board).

Using Arduino IDE version1.8.9 . Trying to compile the GeneralInformation sketch I get the following errors:

How to pass a Authorization Header on sim808.postHttp ?

How to pass an Authorization Header on sim808.postHttp ?

Unsigned Integer Bug

arduino-sim808/src/SIM808.Power.cpp

Lines 29 to 34 in d99de04

	uint16_t timeout = 2000;
	do {
	delay(150);
	timeout -= 150;
	currentlyPowered = powered();
	} while(currentlyPowered != power && timeout > 0);

I think timeout on line 29 should be a 16-bit signed integer. Otherwise the timeout > 0 check on line 34 will always be true since timeout cannot go negative and cannot be 0 (2000 % 15 != 0).

I don't think a single line change warrants a whole pull request, but I can submit one if the author insists. I'm not sure what the Github etiquette is.

I could not return a correct result.

My code looks like this :

#include <DFRobot_sim808.h>
#include <SoftwareSerial.h>

#define PIN_TX 10
#define PIN_RX 11
SoftwareSerial mySerial(PIN_TX,PIN_RX);
DFRobot_SIM808 sim808(&mySerial);//Connect RX,TX,PWR,

char http_cmd[] = "GET /media/uploads/mbed_official/hello.txt HTTP/1.0\r\n\r\n";
char buffer[512];

void setup(){
mySerial.begin(9600);
Serial.begin(9600);

//******** Initialize sim808 module *************
while(!sim808.init()) {
    delay(1000);
    Serial.print("Sim808 init error\r\n");
}
delay(3000);

//*********** Attempt DHCP *******************
while(!sim808.join(F("cmnet"))) {
    Serial.println("Sim808 join network error");
    delay(2000);
}

//************ Successful DHCP ****************
Serial.print("IP Address is ");
Serial.println(sim808.getIPAddress());

//*********** Establish a TCP connection ************
if(!sim808.connect(TCP,"mbed.org", 80)) {
    Serial.println("Connect error");
}else{
    Serial.println("Connect mbed.org success");
}

//*********** Send a GET request *****************
Serial.println("waiting to fetch...");
sim808.send(http_cmd, sizeof(http_cmd)-1);
while (true) {
    int ret = sim808.recv(buffer, sizeof(buffer)-1);
    if (ret <= 0){
        Serial.println("fetch over...");
        break;
    }
    buffer[ret] = '\0';
    Serial.print("Recv: ");
    Serial.print(ret);
    Serial.print(" bytes: ");
    Serial.println(buffer);
    break;
}

//************* Close TCP or UDP connections **********
sim808.close();

//*** Disconnect wireless connection, Close Moving Scene *******
sim808.disconnect();

}

Board compatibility. Power, status and reset pins

Is this board compatible with this library? I don't know where should I connect status, reset and power pin.

I modded the library to work only with Serial tx rx pin connections, but it would be nice to have powerOnOff methods and other nice things developed here.
I suppose "RTS" is for reset, but what about power and status pin?

Waiting for RDY is not possible if Auto-Bauding is enabled

arduino-sim808/src/SIM808.cpp

Lines 53 to 54 in a0b3dcd

	// we got AT, waiting for RDY
	while (waitResponse(TO_F(TOKEN_RDY)) != 0);

As per the SIM808 manual:

When power on procedure is completed, SIM808 will send following URC to indicate that the module is ready to operate at fixed baud rate.

RDY

This URC does not appear when autobauding function is active.
Note: User can use AT command “AT+IPR=x” to set a fixed baud rate and save the configuration to non-volatile flash memory. After the configuration is saved as fixed baud rate, the Code “RDY” should be received from the serial port every time when SIM808 is powered on. For details, please refer to the chapter “AT+IPR” in document [1].

Unfortunately in the breakout board I have available, AT+IPR does not preserve its value (likely due to missing flash storage). It may make sense to only use the AT -> OK response for such situations

How to use HardwareSerial?

Hi,

i have this board: https://aax-eu.amazon-adsystem.com/x/c/QjB8EozTLRzWPqqyixda-WAAAAFvoFNo6QMAAAH2AbprfyI/https://www.amazon.de/gp/aw/d/B0721T8CDZ?pf_rd_p=5e2a70c8-77de-4865-9918-07306318c381&aaxitk=nVh5HqNk-xS66dwOeNpfGg&hsa_cr_id=6120989910702&ref_=sb_s_sparkle_slot

It's already working with AT commands but I can not get your library work. I have a Mega 2560 and tried:

HardwareSerial *simSerial = &Serial1;
SIM808 sim808 = SIM808(SIM_RST, SIM_PWR, SIM_STATUS);
char position[POSITION_SIZE];

void setup() {
    Serial.begin(SERIAL_BAUDRATE);
    Log.begin(LOG_LEVEL_NOTICE, &Serial);

    simSerial.begin(SIM808_BAUDRATE);
    sim808.begin(simSerial);```

But the error is: 
request for member 'begin' in 'simSerial', which is of pointer type 'HardwareSerial*' (maybe you meant to use '->' ?)

Thanks for help!

Why is the reset pin required?

According to the SIM808 docs, it seems that the reset pin is only for "emergency situations", i.e. when the device is not responding, or is in some kind of terminal error state.

Why is the reset pin required in the SIM808 constructor?

it's your gps example with arduino 1.8.9 - is it something i should worry about? as i am not getting fix, which i am sure i should have, as i have it with simply accessing console without your library.

As you can see, in this example i didn't even changed the url, but it's not working with any url. HttpGet give the same error. Apn configuration is ok, my simcard is working and I can use with success http request by using this library. It handles both GPRS Setup and http request with different AT COMMANDS than those you used. For HTTP he is using TCP AT Commands, for GPRS Setup he is using a slightly different AT command flow and parameters (but i'm not an expert). I can't understand if the problem is with HTTP Commands or with GPRS Setup.
