Aylax has joined #qi-hardware
<xiangfu> ankitb, sudo iwconfig 2>&1 | grep Signal ?
<ankitb> I had tried this its giving output for wireless acess points, Not for USB modems or mobile phone used as modem to connect net
<ankitb> xiangfu: I had tried this its giving output for wireless acess points, Not for USB modems or mobile phone used as modem to connect net
<ankitb> i tried AT & AT+CSQ
<xiangfu> ankitb, oh. don't know much about modem.
<ankitb> xiangfu : My goal is to measure the variable rssi value

<wolfspraul> wpwrak - I had 2 more questions related to the expansion boards, most likely both are just for the record/documentation/faq as well ;-)
<wolfspraul> the first one is whether an expansion card can access the conbus/wishbone. the second one whether it can access the sdram directly.
<Ayla> any experts out there?
<Ayla> any *ARM* experts out there?
<Ayla> I'm wondering if this ARM instruction is possible:
<Ayla> stmfd r1, {r0-r2}
<ankitb> Folks, please advice command inputs for signal strength bash script for mobile and USB devices
<roh> stop it.
<roh> ankitb: there IS NO generic way for this.
<roh> its device dependant
<roh> and the values while not connected are usually a lie. so ignore them
<roh> while conneted the serial is in use so you cannot poll it.
<Ayla> response to myself: yes it is
wej has joined #qi-hardware
<ankitb> Can i mean that..there is no way to find out the signal Str ??? and when it is no connected then AT+CSQ command respond some values
xiangfu has joined #qi-hardware
<roh> maybe you should ask the vendor of your device
<roh> there are many possibilities. to many for a generic script which works with more than one hardware
<ankitb> The common thing that i have observed from different vendors site & mannual is all of them respond to AT commands
<kristianpaul> wolfspraul: whitequark MAX2769
<kristianpaul> is better option
<kristianpaul> so i cant work with both gps and glonass and and why not other gnss
<kristianpaul> s/cant/can
<qi-bot> kristianpaul meant: "so i can work with both gps and glonass and and why not other gnss "
<roh> ankitb: and thats about it. none of the devices adheres to a common set. especially in the mobile market
<ankitb> So If you can help me with writing AT commands through bash script it would be great help
<roh> as i said... i think you need to ask your vendor for documentation. also one serial isnt enough since its blocked while in use for data
<kristianpaul> ankitb: ppp is not for that?
<kristianpaul> Ayla: milkymist experts ;)
<Ayla> kristianpaul: you guys know so much, I supposed you did know that too :p
<ankitb> kristianpaul: I didnt get ur last comment
<ankitb> can you please elaborate
<kristianpaul> you want sent at commands to a modem
<kristianpaul> right?
<ankitb> yes
<kristianpaul> using a nanonote? right?
<kristianpaul> so modem and serial port plus AT commands, well ppp is good for that
<ankitb> Not exactly!! I want to automate the process of getting signal strength.....using bash script
<kristianpaul> ah
<kristianpaul> and you already know how to get this data?
<kristianpaul> at command chains or such..
<ankitb> Can you please tell me what does ppp stands for?
<ankitb> No
<ankitb> I have tried something called SMSlib, but i am not able to get it running
<kristianpaul> whitequark: i tried, may be as you live in russia is different, there is MAX2769 EVKIT, you can try writen then and get one for free or very low costs
wej has joined #qi-hardware
<kristianpaul> i did, but they or donr understand me or just a robot reply me with a price..
<kristianpaul> whitequark: that EVKIT plus your M1 is the way to to implement a gps sytems on chip receiver
<kristianpaul> ankitb: seems very unrelated (smslib)
<roh> what does the evk cost?
kilae has joined #qi-hardware
<kristianpaul> let me find that mail first
<ankitb> smslib is a java library that use to get signal strength ....i tried the minicomm, kmobile tool for getting Signal strength
<kristianpaul> i see
<kristianpaul> well long time i dont do at command, but i remenber some at stuff _jsut_ work with specific hw vendors..
<GNUtoo-desktop> ankitb, what device?
<GNUtoo-desktop> hi btw
wej has joined #qi-hardware
<kristianpaul> i think deleted it..
<kristianpaul> was around 200usd roh
<kristianpaul> erghh, WTF $ 566.50
<roh> uh
<kristianpaul> thats why i deleted the mail i think :)
wej has joined #qi-hardware
<roh> kristianpaul: get samples and solder onto a pcb ;)
<kristianpaul> roh: already :)
<kristianpaul> well not solder, but have the samples here
<kristianpaul> and PCB

<whitequark> kristianpaul: max and friends don't send samples to Russia
<whitequark> I doubt anyone really does
<whitequark> Russians, er, like to get free samples and then don't do anything with them. hence the vendors' reaction is at least justified
B_Lizzard has joined #qi-hardware
<kristianpaul> who dont like free samples ;)

<kristianpaul> damn where i get that 80.192 Mhz clock..
<whitequark> kristianpaul: use M1 system clock, and then multiply/divide it?
<kristianpaul> s/80.192/81.92
<qi-bot> kristianpaul meant: "damn where i get that 81.92 Mhz clock.."
<kristianpaul> it should be 65.536 Mhz..
<kristianpaul> anyway fixing now
<wpwrak> wolfspraul: hmm, in theory you could repeat bus signals on the expansion header. but if you know the fpga that well, you don't need to read faqs ;-)
<wpwrak> wolfspraul: normally, you wouldn't think of doing anything like this. e.g., the led matrix is a controller sitting on the configuration bus (conbus ?), has a few registers there, but then has its own "protocol" on the pins of the expansion header
<ankitb> GNUtoo|laptop, USB modem device ....
<GNUtoo|laptop> ankitb, what protocol does it speak?
<GNUtoo|laptop> AT or something else?
<GNUtoo|laptop> note that "something else" is very common in smartphones nowadays
<kristianpaul> wpwrak: what is the porpuse of repeating this signal?
<ankitb> devices using ppp0 protocol ......It reaspond At command when it doesn't connect to Internet....if we connect it to inter-net ...then it shows the "resource busy" ....
<ankitb> GNUtoo|laptop, devices using ppp0 protocol ......It reaspond At command when it doesn't connect to Internet....if we connect it to inter-net ...then it shows the "resource busy" ....
<GNUtoo|laptop> ankitb, you need a muxer then
<ankitb> GNUtoo|laptop, it respond only at+csq command ....
<GNUtoo|laptop> ankitb, how many serial ports appeared?
<GNUtoo|laptop> because there might be many serial port with each port having a specific set of commands
<ankitb> how to use muxer ...
<ankitb> for command it support only one port ....called as ACM0......aur ACM1.......any one one of them...
<ankitb> GNUtoo|laptop, and for data it usage 4 port ....like USB0....USB1......USB2.....USB3......but one time it respond form only one port ...dev/ttyACM0
fossrox has joined #qi-hardware
<GNUtoo|laptop> hmmm
<GNUtoo|laptop> maybe look in ofono or such software
<GNUtoo|laptop> for how they handle your particular modem
<wpwrak> kristianpaul: that would be for cases where you'd want to "export" a bus on the expansion header. you'd need to bring the signals out somewhere. and you may modify things in the process ...
<wpwrak> kristianpaul: don't know if wishbone has a means for devices to signal when data is ready on the bus. or if you can mix different bus speeds.
<kristianpaul> ah debug porpuses yes
<kristianpaul> wishbone, thats question for sebastien :)
<kristianpaul> but the ideal will be by jtag library from xilinx
<wpwrak> i think wolfgang was looking for something like an ISA or PCI bus, where you connect external cards
<wpwrak> or at least one card, conforming to the bus protocol
B_Lizzard has joined #qi-hardware
<kristianpaul> cern have a wishbone to PCI, i think
<kristianpaul> yes i see
<wpwrak> (wishbone to pci) cool ! when we could add a USB controller card and have YET MORE USB interfaces ;-))
<kristianpaul> lol
<kristianpaul> but why not make wishbone avalible phisically not sounds that crazy
<kristianpaul> well no hotplug of course :)
<wpwrak> but then you need hardware that speaks wishbone. another fpga ?
<kristianpaul> yes
<kristianpaul> or cpld, some wishbone to uart cores should exists already

<Artyom> kristianpaul: I'm not going to use leon3 SoC in the nearest future. Too many efforts were spend on MM SoC to through them ;)
<Artyom> But leon3 SoC seems to be very popular among gnss-developers.
<Artyom> For example javad also uses leon3 in their ASIC
<whitequark> now that I look at it, I wonder
<whitequark> why M1 doesn't use a LEON3 cpu?
<whitequark> it's GPL
<whitequark> 3.5kLUT sounds manageable

<Ayla> he disconnected :(
<kristianpaul> Artyom, MM SoC nice :-)
<kristianpaul> whitequark: i'm not complete sure but LEON3 is _only_ writen in VHDL
<kristianpaul> yes lm32 also si around 2500 LUTs
<kristianpaul> not that VHDL not way. just look all code is verilog, but you better ask sebastien :)
<kristianpaul> Artyom, shame gnss-sensor.com dont share its gnss hdl core ;-)
