A question about the GSM/GPRS shield v3.0 from lim

[quote]hai,

for my project, i need to detect the coordinate by using GPS, after that, the coordinate need to send out through sms.

the example coding ([url=http://www.dfrobot.com/wiki/index.php/GPS/GPRS/GSM_Module_V3.0_(SKU:TEL0051))]http://www.dfrobot.com/wiki/index.php/GPS/GPRS/GSM_Module_V3.0_(SKU:TEL0051))[/url] show that, when using GSM, the gps/gsm jumper cap need to put at GSM side. but when using GPS, need to put at GPS side.
the Jumper cap need to put where if i need to use both GPS and GSM on the same time.[/quote]

Hi, from the schematic and datasheet. This shield is compatible with Arduino DUE. Phoebe

2013-04-22 01:39:25 Hello,

is this shield Arduino DUE compatible?

Thanks in advance

Yes, in the sample code there is a command that can reset the board:

//reset GPS in autonomy mode
Serial.println("AT+CGPSRST=1"); Phoebe

2013-03-29 08:37:19 hai,

is it any method that i can reset my board using program without pressing the reset button? salim3

2013-03-28 11:28:43 Hi

There is a sample code [b]How to drive the GPS Mode via Arduino board[/b] on the wiki doc , it send the GPS signal via UART, you can change it to send the GPS signal via GSM mode.

i think it is right that you setup the GPS& GSM . Maybe you should optimize your code ;D Phoebe

2013-03-27 08:22:46 hai,

i main problem is do not know the correct way to setup the GPS and GSM.

if i write the setting like this, is it ok?
[size=10pt][b][b]
void setup()
{
pinMode(3,OUTPUT);//The default digital driver pins for the GSM and GPS mode
pinMode(4,OUTPUT);
pinMode(5,OUTPUT);
digitalWrite(5,HIGH);
delay(1500);
digitalWrite(5,LOW);

digitalWrite(3,LOW);//Enable GSM mode
digitalWrite(4,HIGH);//Disable GPS mode
delay(2000);
Serial.begin(9600);
delay(5000);//GPS ready

Serial.println("AT");
delay(2000);
//turn on GPS power supply
Serial.println("AT+CGPSPWR=1");
delay(1000);
//reset GPS in autonomy mode
Serial.println("AT+CGPSRST=1");
delay(1000);

digitalWrite(4,LOW);//Enable GPS mode
digitalWrite(3,HIGH);//Disable GSM mode
delay(2000);
coordinate (); // receive the signal

byte gsmDriverPin[3] = {3,4,5};

for(int i = 0 ; i < 3; i++){
pinMode(gsmDriverPin[i],OUTPUT);
}
digitalWrite(5,HIGH);
delay(1500);
digitalWrite(5,LOW);
digitalWrite(3,LOW);
digitalWrite(4,HIGH);
delay(2000);
Serial.begin(9600);
delay(5000);
delay(5000);
delay(5000);

Serial.println("AT"); //Send AT command
delay(20000);
Serial.println("AT");
delay(20000);
//Send message
Serial.println("AT+CMGF=1");
delay(10000);
Serial.println("AT+CMGS=\"0197190627\"");//Change the receiver phone number
delay(10000);
Serial.print("$GPGGA");//the message you want to send
content();
delay(10000);
Serial.write(26);
while(1);
}

void content()//get the content data
{
int t;

t=123;//convert to the chinese time GMT+8 Time zone
Serial.println(t);//Print data
return;
}

void loop()
{
setup();
while(1);
}

thanks a lot salim3

Jumper caps at UART SELECT means that you can select the uart of GPS or GSM by the hardware ,also you can select it by software like the following:

[u]Enable GSM mode & disable GPS mode:[/u]
digitalWrite(4,LOW);//Enable GPS mode
digitalWrite(3,HIGH);//Disable GSM mode

[u]Enable GPS mode & disable GSM mode:[/u]
digitalWrite(3,LOW);//Enable GSM mode
digitalWrite(4,HIGH);//Disable GPS mode

Note:if you select the uart of GPS or GSM by software, please remove the two jumper caps at UART SELECT

Last, if release the driving pin , please remove jumper cap at J10-J12.

2013-03-26 09:04:56 hai,

first, i need to turn on GPS to receive the signal and save the signal in the array. after that, i need to turn on the GSM to send the content of Array by using SMS.

i would like to ask,
1) how i put the jumper cable? from where to where?

2) after i turn on the GPS and receive the signal. i save the $GPGGA sentence in array. after that, i turn on the GSM, but it does not send out my message. is it because my GSM does not turn on?

3) i just had 1 jumper cap at UART SELECT,it wil cause any problem?

4) if release the driving pin , is remove jumper cap at UART SELECT or J10-J12? salim3

2013-03-18 18:44:33 Hi

The two jumper caps is for selecting digital IO pins, that means you can choose other digital pins for enable GPS or
GSM mode via jumper cables.(Default:Digital 3 and 4 ). So take off the two jumper caps from the Uart select and enable the GSM or GPS mode via setting the D3 & D4 in your code.
Please check the "GSM mode & GPS mode Selection" on the wiki doc when you use this module. Have a try~~

Good Luck ;) Phoebe
