I am trying to use SIM900A With STM32F1 USING UART FOR SENDING MESSAGE.I CAN SEE MY TRANSMITTING DATA THROUGH PUTTY BUT IN RECEIVE BUFFER I CANT GET ANY VALUE SOMETIMES MY TRANSMITTING DATA I CAN SEE IN MY RX.WHAT SHOULD WE DO FOR SENDING MESSAGE CAN ANYONE HELP.I ALREADY CHECKED WITH USB TTL ALL COMMANDS RUNNING OK BUT FOR SENDING MESSAGE IT SHOWS ME ERROR SOMETIMES .SOMETIMES IT GOES TO MESSAGE MODE BUT MESSAGE IS NOT SENDING BUT IN STM32 I CANT GET OK RESPONSE ATLEAST FROM GSM MODULE AFTER AT COMMQAND.
THANKS IN ADVANCE
AT Commands are just about sending & receiving serial data - so start by getting that working.
The easiest way to do that is with your microcontroller connected to a terminal app on the PC.
Yes, you will need a USB-to-TTL converter (or similar) to connect the microcontroller to the PC.
Most development boards these days - including ST Nucleo - have this built in, so I would strongly suggest that you start on one of those. They also give you a debugger.
thanks for replying.yes i have checked the controller uart receive and transmit in my serial port using usb ttl.its working fine for both tx and rx.
But when i am connecting UART receive from another module i am not getting anything.

So you need to debug what's going on, then!
See the "hints on debugging serial comms" link given above.
Have you used a logic analyser or oscilloscope to see what's actually happening on the wires ?
No I don't have oscilloscope or analyser
then how did you intend to test & debug this?
But, anyhow, the "hints on debugging serial comms" link given above doesn't rely on a scope or analyser...
