MKRNB : NB_SMS class
beginSMS()
Description
Identifies the telephone number to send an SMS message to.
Syntax
SMS.beginSMS(number)
Parameters
number : char array, the phone number to send the SMS to
Returns
int
In asynchronous mode, beginSMS() returns 0 if the last command is still executing, 1 if success, and >1 if there is an error. In synchronous mode, it returns 1 if it successfully executes, and 0 if it does not.
Example
#include <MKRNB.h>
#include "arduino_secrets.h"
// Please enter your sensitive data in the Secret tab or arduino_secrets.h
// PIN Number
const char PINNUMBER[] = SECRET_PINNUMBER;
// initialize the library instance
NB nbAccess;
NB_SMS sms;
void setup() {
// initialize serial communications and wait for port to open:
Serial.begin(9600);
while (!Serial) {
; // wait for serial port to connect. Needed for native USB port only
}
Serial.println("SMS Messages Sender");
// connection state
bool connected = false;
// Start NB module
// If your SIM has PIN, pass it as a parameter of begin() in quotes
while (!connected) {
if (nbAccess.begin(PINNUMBER) == NB_READY) {
connected = true;
} else {
Serial.println("Not connected");
delay(1000);
}
}
Serial.println("NB initialized");
}
void loop() {
Serial.print("Enter a mobile number: ");
char remoteNum[20]; // telephone number to send SMS
readSerial(remoteNum);
Serial.println(remoteNum);
// 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(remoteNum);
sms.print(txtMsg);
sms.endSMS();
Serial.println("\nCOMPLETE!\n");
}
