GSM Library (Go to Parent Category)

GSM Library Our GSM Library is designed to make interacting with a GSM module reliable and easy. The base library includes functions for detecting missed calls, reading/writing the GSM modules internal RTCC (real-time calendar and clock), extracting the date/time from the GSM network, reading the modules IMEI code, and entering the SIM card pin code.
Extensions are available for adding text messaging (SMS) and/or GPRS functionality to the library.

GSM modules have made it easy for embedded developers to add hardware capable of connecting to cellular networks to their project. These GSM modules communicate via simple AT commands - whilst the AT commands are easy to understand and use, writing reliable embedded code for interfacing using them can be challenging.
We have spent hundreds of hours developing and testing our GSM Library. It is designed to be easy to use, fast, and reliable - with fail-safes and retry mechanisms built in at every step.

Functionality provided by the library includes:
Base Library
  • Read/write the GSM modules RTCC (real-time calendar and clock)
  • Receive the date/time from the GSM network
  • Read the modules unique IMEI code
  • Enter SIM card PIN code (optional)
  • Detect a missed call (including the caller ID)
Text Messaging (SMS) Extension
  • Receive text messages
  • Send text messages
GPRS Extension (Currently only available for SIMCom modules)
  • HTTP GET
  • HTTP POST

Full source-code for the base library is provided, so you are free to modify and extend the base library if and as you wish.
The extensions are provided as closed-source mikroElektronika compiler libraries, which install with the Package Manager software. If you are not using a mikroElektronika compiler then please contact us and we will provide a solution for your C compiler of choice.

The library is currently available for the ANSI-compliant mikroC Pro for PIC, mikroC Pro for PIC24/dsPIC, mikroC Pro for PIC32 and mikroC Pro for ARM as well as mikroBasic Pro for PIC and mikroPascal Pro for PIC. The library code is MCU independent however, and we will also port it to any of mikroElektronika's other C, BASIC or Pascal compilers for PIC24/dsPIC / PIC32 / ARM / AVR / 8051 based on demand. As mentioned above, if you are not using a mikroElektronika compiler then please contact us and we will provide a solution for your C compiler of choice.

Sample programs are included for the following hardware setups:

Free copies of all extensions are included with a purchase of our SimPLCv2 board.

Bonus: AT-Command State Machine Framework
The technique employed in our GSM library can be used for interacting with other AT-command based modules as well (such as the RN-41 BlueTooth module featured on the BlueTooth click board), by simply changing the AT commands used in the framework to commands relevant for the module you wish to work with.
