GPS and GSM can working in same software ?

[stef2pont]

Hello Roman,

I make a software using a GSM device (working at 80%, not yet finished...) and i would like to add a second TnrComPort for communicate with a GPS device.

The goal is to pick up a GPS coordinate and sending this string by SMS.

It is possible ?

(i try to resolve some problem with receiving corrupted data, so i cant testing the idea for the moment...)

thank's !

I don't se reason why this can't be done. But you must know if you will use 1Hz GPS device you will get your location every second and if you would like send this over SMS your GSM will not handle it... I think that is best to work only with $GPRMC sentence and send it only every minute or 30sec...

thank's dejan !

Understood ! I use already the GPRMC, and i will send the position every 60 seconds. So, let's go coding !!  ;D

Hello

The GPS sentences arrive from GPS device too often.
You can not retransmit them over GSM/SMS directly.
You need to develop original protocol for such task.
