AnyNet 3G-EA Click Board (UK, EU and Australia)
The AnyNet 3G-EA Click Board™ is a Cellular to AWS gateway device, which provides developers with the complete solution for various IoT applications, by using the AWS IoT and Cloud Storage Services for the data storage, analysing and processing. The AnyNet Click Board™ provides a secure connection with the AWS over the air (OTA), by utilising the Quectel UG95-EA 3G module, offering worldwide UMTS/HSPA and GSM/GPRS/EDGE coverage EseyeES4623 embedded SIM card, that can work with more than 235 cellular operators from all over the world. An Eseye embedded sim card can work with more than 235 cellular operators from all over the world. The AnyNet 3G Click Board™ can be used as an AWS IoT button with almost no configuration.
The AnyNet 3G Click Board™ comes supplied with the start-up package - free Activation through the AWS, unique ID number of the embedded SIM card and six-month cellular connectivity services of up to 5000 messages to the AWS cloud. With the AnyNet 3G Click Board™, users get a unique level of integration with the AWS IoT services.
Note: Before the purchase of AnyNet 3G Click Board™, please contact Eseye and check for the coverage and support of embedded SIM cards from your local provider. Opening an AWS account and subscribing to the Eseye marketplace is mandatory to work with this Click Board™.
The antenna is sold separately.
Software Support
We provide a library for the AnyNET 3G-EA Click Board™ on our LibStock page, as well as a demo application (example), developed using MikroElektronika compilers. The demo can run on all the main MikroElektronika development boards.
Library Description
The library is composed of driver and API layers both available from user space. Lower driver layer carries generic AT command parser, API layer carries simplified user-friendly function calls.
Key functions
api_anynet3g_queryICCID
- Provides ICC ID necessary for registration
api_anynet3g_checkStateAWS
- Returns the current state of the module
api_anynet3g_openTopicAWS
- Opens Topic
Example Description
The example shows how to properly initialize module and use API function calls. All information from the module is logged using UART so two UART modules are necessary for the example. In case that your system has only one UART module, Software UART is also usable for data logging. Also, it is necessary to have an account on Amazon for successful testing.
void applicationTask() { // MODULE INIT anynet3g_cmdSingle( "AT" ); api_anynet3g_firmwareID(); api_anynet3g_queryICCID(); api_anynet3g_checkStateAWS( _ANYNET3G_GET ); // OPEN TOPIC 0 AND PUBLISH api_anynet3g_openTopicAWS( _ANYNET3G_SET, &_MY_TOPIC[0] ); api_anynet3g_publishTopicAWS( _ANYNET3G_SET, &_MIKROE[0] ); }
Other mikroE Libraries used in the example:
- UART
- Conversions
- C_String
Additional Notes and Information
Depending on the development board you are using, you may need a 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. The terminal available in all Mikroelektronika compilers, or any other terminal application of your choice, can be used to read the message.
MIKROSDK
The AnyNET 3G-EA Click Board™ is supported with mikroSDK - MikroElektronika Software Development Kit. To ensure proper operation of mikroSDK compliant click board demo applications, mikroSDK should be downloaded from the LibStock and installed for the compiler you are using.
