Re: configuration issues with Siemens MC35i

2008-02-07 Thread Peter Salvage

Hi Tommi

My notebook doesn't have a serial port so I'm using a USB to Serial port 
converter.

Peter

Try setting device = /dev/ttyUSB0 to device = /dev/ttyS0.

BTW, I'm having problems with Siemens modem. For some reason it seems to 
freeze computer totally occasionally (couple of times a week). Any body 
with Siemens MC35i had similar issues?

Hi all

I'm running 1.4.0 on Debian

Here's part of my kannel.conf:

group = core
admin-port = 13000
admin-password = blah
admin-allow-ip = 127.0.0.1
log-file = /tmp/kannel.log
log-level = 1
access-log = access.log
# Smsbox related
smsbox-port = 13001
box-allow-ip = 127.0.0.1
store-file = kannel.store
sms-incoming-queue-limit = 0
# Wapbox related
udp-deny-ip = *.*.*.*
include = /etc/kannel/modems.conf

# SMSC GSM
group = smsc
smsc = at
nokiaphone | ericsson
modemtype = siemens_mc35i
device = /dev/ttyUSB0
#pin = 2345
validityperiod = 167


...and here's my modems.conf:
group = modems
id = siemens_mc35i
name = Siemens MC35i
detect-string = SIEMENS
detect-string2 = MC35i
init-string = AT+CNMI=1,2,0,1,1
init-string = AT+CSMS=1
speed = 115200
enable-hwhs = AT\\Q3
need-sleep = true

I can communicate with the modem fine using minicom, with hw 
flowcontrol off, and speed set to 115200.

detect-string = SIEMENS
detect-string2 = MC35i
init-string = AT+CNMI=1,2,0,1,1

Re: configuration issues with Siemens MC35i

2008-02-07 Thread Leo McManus
Had a lot of problems setting up a plane MC35 for data/PPP sessions on a real
commport. Found we needed the following AT commands setting:

ATS18   #Extended error reporting.
AT+IPR=0#Autobauding on the PC interface
AT\Q3   #Hardware flow control
AT+CBST=0,0,1   #Autobauding on the Air interface
ATD*99***1# #Dial command

We had a lot of PPP authentication OK reports, but it would immediatly fall out.
The only dial string that worked was the *99***1# all the others fell out.
Suspect that the crucial AT cammands are the CBST and the AT\Q3.

Hope this helps.

Re: configuration issues with Siemens MC35i - SOLVED!

2008-02-07 Thread Peter Salvage

Hi all

Got it working...my config was fine.

The problem was the USB to serial converter; it didn't do HW flow 
control. The clue was that I couldn't attach to the MC35i using Minicom 
with HW flow control on, only off.


However it appears that Kannel expects HW flow control(?) so I jimmied 
together a serial cable with pins 1,4 and 6 shorted together, and it worked.


Now to play :-)

Thanks for all the suggestions and advice, guys!

Regards,
Peter
