Recently, we have a project using Cortex-M3 processor to develop telematics functions,such as Phone,SMS,Using GPRS,etc. All of this functions we using UART port to connect with modem. Under WINCE platform we have finished these functions already,but with M3,we have lots of questions that because we using this platform very few.If you have any suggestion\solutions ,please tell me! Thanks a lot. Questions: 1: Can we using TCP/IP stacks such as wince with this platform?if not, how about LWIP means? 2: I have found some samples about net connect with M3 by using Ethernet card, how about PPPOE,share we using this types?
if we need to finished the function such as wince RIL, How do I? E-Mail:stone1008@163.com Thanks.
No, it is not!
Welcom to the world of "bare metal" computing!
"GPRS modems have built-in TCP/IP stack"
I said most GPRS modems have a built-in TCP/IP stack - you will have to study the manuals for your particular modem(s) to determine whether it has one.
"we need to send at command(with gprs data)after TCP/IP stack(Cortex-M3) control, am i right?"
Please read the manual!
I've found the answers. For beginner, manuals can not answer all the questions, sometimes I got the answers and need you suggestions to confirm it.
Remember that nobody knows anything about you or your project other than what you clearly and explicitly state in your posts.
If you have read the manuals, and have specific questions, you need to make that clear
Ok,with you suggestion before i found some other ways to get the answer,such as modems provider. I think read manuals with cortex-M3 my be is not enough. Although what i said is not clear, but i found some useful info with your answers. Anyway thanks to you.
Cortex-M3 manuals can never be enough, since the Cortex-M3 manuals only covers the processor.
And the processor does not have any networking. It's just a stupid processor that requires you or someone else to write programs or to load existing program functionality into it. So you need to either find libraries to use and read their manuals, or you need to use external networking hardware (like a GPRS module) and read the manual(s) for that hardware.
In the end, there is a huge difference between a processor and a complete computer system.
"the Cortex-M3 manuals only covers the processor"
In fact, Cortex-M3 manuals cover only the core of the processor.
For a complete description of an actual microcontroller (which is built on a Cortex-M3 core), you will need to study the particular Manufacturer's documentation for that specific chip.
"such as modems provider"
Yes, of course you should always speak to the provider (manufacturer, distributor, whatever) to discuss your requirements before making your choice!
If you were buying a car, you would talk to the dealer to ensure that it met your requirements before parting with your money - wouldn't you...?!

My wife didn't!!!
"My wife didn't!!!"
But it was small, red and cute?
You know his wife?
The good old captain once posted a picture of his wife (Sprat will probably claim it is a conspiracy). Why don't we all? It will be fun :-)
"All" wives wants small, red and cute cars.
Mine is not my wife, but she likes them black, small, fast and nasty. Do you think she might opt for the small, red and cute variants if we ever get married?
