Added support for the WNC M14A2A Cellular LTE Data Module.
Dependencies: WNC14A2AInterface
Easy Connect
Easily add all supported connectivity methods to your mbed OS project
This project is derived from https://developer.mbed.org/teams/sandbox/code/simple-mbed-client-example/file/dd6231df71bb/easy-connect.lib. It give user the ability to switch between connectivity methods and includes support for the WNC14A2A Data Module. The `NetworkInterface` API makes this easy, but you still need a mechanism for the user to select the connection method, The selection is made by modifying the `mbed_app.json` file and using `easy_connect()` from your application.
Specifying connectivity method
To add support for the WNC14A2A, add the following to your ``mbed_app.json`` file:
mbed_app.json
{ "config": { "network-interface":{ "help": "options are ETHERNET,WIFI_ESP8266,WIFI_ODIN,MESH_LOWPAN_ND,MESH_THREAD,WNC14A2A", "value": "WNC14A2A" } }, }
After you choose `WNC14A2A` you'll also need to indicate if you want debug output or not by Enabling (true) or Disabling (false) WNC_DEBUG.
If WNC_DEBUG is enabled, there are 3 different levels of debug output (selected via bit settings). These debug levels are set using the following values:
Value | Description |
---|---|
1 | Basic WNC driver debug output |
2 | Comprehensive WNC driver debug output |
4 | Network Layer debug output |
You can have any combination of these three bit values for a total value of 0 – 7.
WNC Debug Settings
"config": { "WNC_DEBUG": { "value": false }, "WNC_DEBUG_SETTING": { "value": 4 }, }
Using Easy Connect from your application
Easy Connect has just one function which will either return a `NetworkInterface`-pointer or `NULL`:
Sample Code
#include "easy-connect.h" int main(int, char**) { NetworkInterface* network = easy_connect(true); /* has 1 argument, enable_logging (pass in true to log to serial port) */ if (!network) { printf("Connecting to the network failed... See serial output.\r\n"); return 1; } // Rest of your program }
Tested on
- K64F with Ethernet.
- AT&T Cellular IoT Starter Kit with WNC M14A2A Cellular Data Module
The WNCInterface class currently supports the following version(s):
- MPSS: M14A2A_v11.50.164451 APSS: M14A2A_v11.53.164451
