==Detailed description==

















''No detailed description exists yet for this component''

==Examples==

Example program that checks for network connection and then allows a number to be texted or voice dialled.

Waits for connection to be established before allowing texts or calls to be made.

The number at the top of the file in the calculation icon needs to be edited to a number to connect to for texts and calls.


Arduino Connections: 

D8-D13 - LEDs / D8 = Connection Status - Flashing = Connecting /  D9 Text sending / D10 Call Active

D0-D7 - GSM

A0-A5 - Switches - A0 = Send Text / A1 = Start voice call / A2 = End call

{{Fcfile|GSM_DEMO_Arduino.fcfx|Arduino GSM Example}}


PIC Connections

B0-B7 - LEDs / B0 = Connection Status - Flashing = Connecting /  B1 Text sending / B2 Call Active

C0-C7 - GSM

A0-A7 - Switches - A0 = Send Text / A1 = Start voice call / A2 = End call
