Version 1.1 (Release)
Category Comms
This inherits from Data Injector Template


Image Injector (AT) component

Comms data injector to replicate basic AT command syntax. The component will record each incoming character until the termination character is received. Once this happens the component will respond by echoing back the received data followed by an "OK" reply.

Examples

GSM Example File FC6 Icon.png GSM Example Example should show the following on the display on the panel and on the hardware.

The AT injector component allows us to simulate the response of the GSM module.
