GSM Application Guide
Introduction
These examples demonstrate the use of Flowcode and serial AT commands to control a GSM modem.
In particular they make use of the EB066 E-blocks GSM board, connected to an EB006 E-blocks PICmicro multiprogrammer fitted with a 16F1937 microprocessor.
However, the examples are easily changed in Flowcode to support other microprocessors and platforms.
The Matrix TSL EB452SI6 Easy GSM bundle has all the items required for these sample applications and is an ideal introduction to GSM (Global System for Mobile) communication technology.
Setting up the project hardware
Connect the E-Blocks as indicated in the table below.
The GSM, Sensor and LCD E-Blocks all need to be powered via wire connections to the +V on the EB006.
In addition, the GSM board requires the Vpwr terminal connecting to the Vpwr (or +14V) terminal of the EB006.
