SIM800 MicroPython Library

This library provides an interface for the SIM800 module to perform GSM, GPRS, SMS, and TCP/IP communications using MicroPython on microcontrollers. It includes functions to handle voice calls, SMS, HTTP requests, FTP, and more.

Installation

Copy the sim800 folder to your MicroPython device filesystem. I advise a repo structure main.py entrypoint and importing as below.

Usage

Initialize the SIM800 Module

from sim800 import SIM800
sim800 = SIM800(uart_pin=1, baud=115200)

Send an SMS

from sim800 import SIM800SMS
sim800 = SIM800SMS(uart_pin=1)
sim800.send_sms('+1234567890', 'Hello World')

Make a Voice Call

from sim800 import SIM800
sim800 = SIM800(uart_pin=1)
sim800.dial_number('+1234567890')

# To hang up the call
sim800.hang_up()

Get Network Time

from sim800 import SIM800
sim800 = SIM800(uart_pin=1)
time = sim800.get_network_time()
print(time)

HTTP GET Request

from sim800 import SIM800TCPIP
sim800 = SIM800TCPIP(uart_pin=1)
sim800.http_init()
sim800.http_set_param("URL", "http://example.com")
response = sim800.http_get()
print(response)
sim800.http_terminate()

FTP Download File

from sim800 import SIM800TCPIP
sim800 = SIM800TCPIP(uart_pin=1)
sim800.ftp_init(server='ftp.example.com', username='user', password='pass')
file_content = sim800.ftp_get_file('path/to/file.txt', '/remote/path')
print(file_content)

Get GSM Location

from sim800 import SIM800GPRS
sim800 = SIM800GPRS(uart_pin=1)
location_info = sim800.get_gsm_location()
print("GSM Location Info:", location_info)
