Home devices control system using gsm and arduino mega2560

Question

Hi dears I'm trying to do project to control app base gsm control by arduino mega 2560 gsm module SIM900A

To send SMS to open Led than reply SMS to give as the status I mean send SMS then I received SMS from GSM module by this code same time work but same time not work also same time send SMS1111 received SMS2222 status. I hope it is clear.

#include <SoftwareSerial.h>
#include <string.h>
#include "SIM900.h"
#include <TinyGPS.h>
#include "sms.h"
SoftwareSerial GSMSerial(12, 13);
byte buffer[128]; 
int count = 0; 
const int Led4 = 43;
const int Led1 = 44;
const int Led2 = 45;
const int Led3 = 50;
void SIM900power() 
{
}
void setup() {
 pinMode(Led1, OUTPUT);
 pinMode(Led2, OUTPUT);
 pinMode(Led3, OUTPUT);
 pinMode(Led4, OUTPUT);
 GSMSerial.begin(19200); // the SIM900 baud rate
 Serial.begin(9600); // the Serial port of Arduino baud rate.
 Sim900_Inti();
}
void loop() {
 GSMSerial.listen();
 if (GSMSerial.available()) // If date is comming from from GSM shield)
 {
 while (GSMSerial.available()) // reading data into char array
 {
 buffer[count++] = GSMSerial.read(); // writing data into array
 if (count == 128)break;
 }
 Serial.write(buffer, count); // if no data transmission ends, write buffer to hardware serial port
Cmd_Read_Act(); //Read the 'COMMAND' sent to SIM900 through SMS
clearBufferArray(); // call clearBufferArray function to clear the storaged data from the array
count = 0; // set counter of while loop to zero
 }
 if (Serial.available()) // if data is available on hardwareserial port ==> data is comming from PC or notebook
 GSMSerial.println(Serial.read()); // write it to the GPRS shield
}
void clearBufferArray() // function to clear buffer array
{
 delay(1000);
 for (int i = 0; i < count; i++)
 {

• gre_gor: Why are you using software serial on an Arduino Mega?
• Moosa: Sorry I used Arduino Uno before now my problem when I send 1111 or 2222 I received SMS from gsm module but when I send 3333 or 4444 not received any thing

Answer 1

For the 3333 and 4444 you are doing

buffer[m] = char(buffer[m]);

and

buffer[p] = char(buffer[p]);

which does nothing.

You probably meant

buffer_m[m] = char(buffer[m]);

and

buffer_p[p] = char(buffer[p]);

• gre_gor: @Moosa Don't forget to accept the answer if it solved your problem.
