Click library

• Author : Luka Filipovic
• Date : Dec 2020.
• Type : UART type

Software Support

We provide a library for the LTEIoT4 Click as well as a demo application (example), developed using MikroElektronika compilers. The demo can run on all the main MikroElektronika development boards.

Package can be downloaded/installed directly from NECTO Studio Package Manager(recommended way), downloaded from our LibStock™ or found on mikroE github account.

Library Description

This library contains API for LTEIoT4 Click driver.

Standard key functions :

• Config Object Initialization function.

void lteiot4_cfg_setup ( lteiot4_cfg_t *cfg );

• Initialization function.

LTEIOT4_RETVAL lteiot4_init ( lteiot4_t *ctx, lteiot4_cfg_t *cfg );

• Click Default Configuration function.

void lteiot4_default_cfg ( lteiot4_t *ctx );

Example key functions :

Sets state of the rst pin setting.

void lteiot4_set_rst ( lteiot4_t *ctx, uint8_t state );

Send command function.

void lteiot4_send_cmd ( lteiot4_t *ctx, char *cmd );

Set sim card APN.

void lteiot4_set_sim_apn ( lteiot4_t *ctx, char *sim_apn );

Examples Description

This example reads and processes data from LTE IoT 4 clicks.

The demo application is composed of two sections :

Application Init

Initializes driver and wake-up module.

void application_init ( void )
{
    log_cfg_t log_cfg;          /**< Logger config object. */
    lteiot4_cfg_t lteiot4_cfg;    /**< Click config object. */

    /** 
     * Logger initialization.
     * Default baud rate: 115200
     * Default log level: LOG_LEVEL_DEBUG
     * @note If USB_UART_RX and USB_UART_TX 
     * are defined as HAL_PIN_NC, you will 
     * need to define them manually for log to work. 
     * See @b LOG_MAP_USB_UART macro definition for detailed explanation.

    }
}

Note

In order for the example to work, enter valid data for the following macros: SIM_APN.

E.g. SIM_APN "vip.mobile"

The full application code, and ready to use projects can be installed directly from NECTO Studio Package Manager(recommended way), downloaded from our LibStock™ or found on mikroE github account.

Other mikroE Libraries used in the example:

• MikroSDK.Board
• MikroSDK.Log
• Click.LTEIoT4

Additional notes and informations

Depending on the development board you are using, you may need USB UART click, USB UART 2 Click or RS232 Click to connect to your PC, for development systems with no UART to USB interface available on the board. UART terminal is available in all Mikroelektronika compilers.
