I am working with Arduino and SIM800A. My goal is to save the sms message received by SIM800A to a string variable to be used later. Yet to my surprise, the message always get cut off and I have no clue why.
I send to SIM:
This is a test message
The Serial Monitor only shows:
+CMT: "+XXXXXXXXXX","","21/02/20,01:52:40+28"
This is a tes
Below is the code
#include <SoftwareSerial.h>
// Configure software serial port
SoftwareSerial Sim(2, 3);
// Variable to store text message
char incomingMessage;
String textMessage;
void setup() {
pinMode(13, OUTPUT);
digitalWrite(13, HIGH);
// Initializing serial commmunication
Serial.begin(9600);
Sim.begin(9600);
delay(100);
while (!Sim.available()) {
Sim.println("AT");
delay(200);
Serial.println("Connecting...");
}
Serial.println("Connected!");
Sim.println("AT+CMGF=1"); //Set SMS to Text Mode
delay(200);
// Sim.println("AT+CMGL=\"ALL\"");
// delay(500);
Sim.println("AT+CNMI=1,2,0,0,0"); //Procedure to handle newly arrived messages(command name in text: new message indications to TE)
delay(1000);
Sim.read();
//Sim.println("AT+CMGL=\"REC UNREAD\""); // Read Unread Messages
}
void loop() {
if (Sim.available()>0) {
delay(200);
// Serial Buffer
while (Sim.available()>0) {
incomingMessage = Sim.read();
textMessage += incomingMessage;
}
delay(500);
Serial.println(textMessage);
textMessage = "";
}
}
