SIM908Client

SIM908 Simple Client to control GPS and GPRS modes of DFRobot GPS/GPRS/GSM Module V3.0

Usage

Import SIM908Client to your Arduino porject and:

• Create a SIM908Client

  SIM908Client simClient(0,1,5,4,3);
  

• Setup your client

  //starting client with baud rate 9600
  simClient.begin(9600);
  
  //starting GPS module
  simClient.startGPS();
  
  //attaching GPRS network and creating a web connection
  simClient.attach(apn,usr,psw);
  

  After this you will be able to use gps location and internet, if you provide valid values for apn, usr and psw.

• call getGPS to retrieve location

  //get current location
  simClient.getGPS();

• Follow the provided example to use MQTT over the provided internet connection, and to send location over the socket.

Note: the example shows only the client side of the MQTT conn. We used a configured Mosquitto Broker to provide the infrastructure to interconnect multiple clients. The SisAFA project provides a more complete example about configuring a Broker and creating a mobile app to retrieve location info via MQTT.
