Configuration

This is the default configuration of the middleware. When any of the settings shall be modified, it shall be done in dedicated application config lwcell_opts.h file.

Note

Check Getting started for guidelines on how to create and use configuration file.

group LWCELL_OPT

LwCELL options.

Defines

LWCELL_CFG_OS: Enables 1 or disables 0 operating system support for GSM library.

Note

Value must be set to 1 in the current revision

Note

Check OS configuration group for more configuration related to operating system

LWCELL_CFG_MEM_CUSTOM

Enables 1 or disables 0 custom memory management functions.

When set to 1, Memory manager block must be provided manually. This includes implementation of functions lwcell_mem_malloc, lwcell_mem_calloc, lwcell_mem_realloc and lwcell_mem_free

Note

Function declaration follows standard C functions malloc, calloc, realloc, free. Declaration is available in lwcell/lwcell_mem.h file. Include this file to final implementation file

Note

When implementing custom memory allocation, it is necessary to take care of multiple threads accessing same resource for custom allocator

LWCELL_CFG_MEM_ALIGNMENT: Memory alignment for dynamic memory allocations.

Note

Some CPUs can work faster if memory is aligned, usually to 4 or 8 bytes. To speed up this possibilities, you can set memory alignment and library will try to allocate memory on aligned boundaries.

Note

Some CPUs such ARM Cortex-M0 don’t support unaligned memory access. This CPUs must have set correct memory alignment value.

Note

This value must be power of 2

LWCELL_CFG_USE_API_FUNC_EVT

Enables 1 or disables 0 callback function and custom parameter for API functions.

When enabled, 2 additional parameters are available in API functions. When command is executed, callback function with its parameter could be called when not set to NULL.

LWCELL_CFG_AT_PORT_BAUDRATE: Default baudrate used for AT port.

Note

Later, user may call API function to change to desired baudrate if necessary

LWCELL_CFG_RCV_BUFF_SIZE: Buffer size for received data waiting to be processed.

Note

When server mode is active and a lot of connections are in queue this should be set high otherwise your buffer may overflow

Note

Buffer size also depends on TX user driver if it uses DMA or blocking mode In case of DMA (CPU can work other tasks), buffer may be smaller as CPU will have more time to process all the incoming bytes

Note

This parameter has no meaning when LWCELL_CFG_INPUT_USE_PROCESS is enabled

LWCELL_CFG_RESET_ON_INIT: Enables 1 or disables 0 reset sequence after lwcell_init call.

Note

When this functionality is disabled, user must manually call lwcell_reset to send reset sequence to GSM device.

LWCELL_CFG_RESET_ON_DEVICE_PRESENT: Enables 1 or disables 0 reset sequence after lwcell_device_set_present call.

Note

When this functionality is disabled, user must manually call lwcell_reset to send reset sequence to GSM device.

LWCELL_CFG_RESET_DELAY_AFTER: Default delay (milliseconds unit) after reset sequence.

LWCELL_CFG_KEEP_ALIVE: Enables 1 or disables 0 periodic keep-alive events to registered callbacks.

LWCELL_CFG_KEEP_ALIVE_TIMEOUT

Timeout periodic time to trigger keep alive events to registered callbacks.

Feature must be enabled with LWCELL_CFG_KEEP_ALIVE

LWCELL_CFG_CONN_POLL_INTERVAL

Value indicates interval time to call poll event on active connections.

Note

Single poll interval applies for all connections

Connection settings.

Defines

LWCELL_CFG_MAX_CONNS: Maximal number of connections AT software can support on GSM device.

LWCELL_CFG_CONN_MAX_DATA_LEN: Maximal number of bytes we can send at single command to GSM.

Note

Value can not exceed 1460 bytes or no data will be ever send

Note

This is limitation of GSM AT commands and on systems where RAM is not an issue, it should be set to maximal value (1460) to optimize data transfer speed performance

LWCELL_CFG_CONN_MIN_DATA_LEN

Minimal buffer in bytes for connection receive allocation.

             Allocation will always start with (up to) \ref LWCELL_CFG_CONN_MAX_DATA_LEN
             and will continue with trial down to this setting up until allocating is successful.

LWCELL_CFG_MAX_SEND_RETRIES

Set number of retries for send data command.

Sometimes it may happen that AT+SEND command fails due to different problems. Trying to send the same data multiple times can raise chances we are successful.

             Check \ref LWCELL_DBG_LVL for possible values

LWCELL_CFG_DBG_TYPES_ON

When debug is globally enabled with LWCELL_CFG_DBG parameter, user must enable debug types such as TRACE or STATE messages.

Check LWCELL_DBG_TYPE for possible options. Separate values with bitwise OR operator

LWCELL_CFG_DBG_INIT

Set debug level for init function.

Operating system dependant configuration.

Defines

LWCELL_CFG_THREAD_PRODUCER_MBOX_SIZE

Set number of message queue entries for procuder thread.

Message queue is used for storing memory address to command data

LWCELL_CFG_THREAD_PROCESS_MBOX_SIZE

Set number of message queue entries for processing thread.

Message queue is used to notify processing thread about new received data on AT port

LWCELL_CFG_INPUT_USE_PROCESS

Enables 1 or disables 0 direct support for processing input data.

When this mode is enabled, no overhead is included for copying data to receive buffer because bytes are processed directly.

Note

This mode can only be used when LWCELL_CFG_OS is enabled

Note

When using this mode, separate thread must be dedicated only for reading data on AT port

Note

Best case for using this mode is if DMA receive is supported by host device

LWCELL_THREAD_PRODUCER_HOOK()

Producer thread hook, called each time thread wakes-up and does the processing.

It can be used to check if thread is alive.

It can be used to check if thread is alive.

LWCELL_CFG_THREADX_CUSTOM_MEM_BYTE_POOL

Enables 1 or disables 0 custom memory byte pool extension for ThreadX port.

When enabled, user must manually set byte pool at run-time, before lwcell_init is called

LWCELL_CFG_THREADX_IDLE_THREAD_EXTENSION

Enables 1 or disables 0 idle thread extensions feature of ThreadX.

When enabled, user must manually configure idle thread and setup additional thread handle extension fields. By default ThreadX doesn’t support self-thread cleanup when thread memory is dynamically allocated & thread terminated, hence another thread is mandatory to do the cleanup process instead.

This configuration does not create idle-thread, rather only sets additional TX_THREAD fields, indicating thread handle and thread stack are dynamically allocated.

Have a look at System-ThreadX port for implementation
