MKRGSM : GSM_SMS class
write()
Description
Writes a character to a SMS message.
Syntax
SMS.write(val)
Parameters
val: a character to send in the message
Returns
byte - write() will return the number of bytes written, though reading that number is optional
Example
#include <MKRGSM.h>
#define PINNUMBER ""
// initialize the library instance
GSM gsmAccess; // include a 'true' parameter for debug enabled
GSM_SMS sms;
void setup()
{
// initialize serial communications
Serial.begin(9600);
Serial.println("SMS Messages Sender");
// connection state
boolean notConnected = true;
// Start GSM shield
// If your SIM has PIN, pass it as a parameter of begin() in quotes
while(notConnected)
{
if(gsmAccess.begin(PINNUMBER)==GSM_READY)
notConnected = false;
else
{
Serial.println("Not connected");
delay(1000);
}
}
Serial.println("GSM initialized");
}
void loop()
{
Serial.print("Enter a mobile number: ");
char remoteNumber[20]; // telephone number to send sms
readSerial(remoteNumber);
Serial.println(remoteNumber);
// sms text
Serial.print("Now, enter SMS content: ");
char txtMsg[200];
readSerial(txtMsg);
Serial.println("SENDING");
Serial.println();
Serial.println("Message:");
Serial.println(txtMsg);
// send the message
sms.beginSMS(remoteNumber);
sms.print(txtMsg);
sms.endSMS();
Serial.println("\nCOMPLETE!\n");
}
