Micro timer problem

Hi all,
I am trying to control a GPS module embeded on a card with Q2686. I dont exactly know on which GPIO the ON_OFF pin of GPS is fixed so I am trying a boot on any GPIO and expecting a flow from the GPS on UART2. But my real problem is that the GPS module documentation says:

which mean for me that to power ON the module I should do something like this:

void GPIOHandle( u8 ID, void * Context ){
   adl_ioWriteSingle ( MyGpioHandle1, &MyGpioConfig1, 0);
   adl_ioWriteSingle ( MyGpioHandle1, &MyGpioConfig1, 1);
   adl_ioWriteSingle ( MyGpioHandle1, &MyGpioConfig1, 0);
  
}
int initUART2(u8 mode, int speed, u8 format, u8 parity, u8 flow_control){

	  char comand[15];
	  /* Check if port available*/
	  if(adl_fcmIsAvailable(ADL_FCM_FLOW_V24_UART2))
	  {
		 /* Save UART operation mode: DATA o AT*/
		 mode_uart2=mode;

		 /* subscribe to FCM uart service */
		 handle_uart2=adl_fcmSubscribe(ADL_FCM_FLOW_V24_UART2, EvhCrtlUart2,EvhDataUart2);

		 /* config parity with AT Command*/
		 wm_sprintf(comand,"AT+ICF=%d,%d", format, parity);
		 adl_atCmdCreate(comand, UART_2, EvhConfUartx, NULL);

		 /* speed  with AT Command*/
		 wm_sprintf(comand,"AT+IPR=%d", speed);
		 adl_atCmdCreate(comand, UART_2, EvhConfUartx, NULL);

		 /* flow control  with AT Command*/
		 switch(flow_control){
		 /* hardware flow control */
		 case CTS_RTS:
			adl_atCmdCreate("AT+IFC=2,2",UART_2,EvhConfUartx,NULL);
			break;
			/* no hardware flow control */
		 case NO_CTS_RTS:
			adl_atCmdCreate("AT+IFC=0,0",UART_2,EvhConfUartx,NULL);
			break;
		 }
		 /* save configuration */
		 adl_atCmdCreate("AT&W", UART_2, (adl_atRspHandler_t)EvhConfUartx,NULL);




		 return 0;
	  }
	  return -1;

   }/*initUART2*/
void GPIO_INIT(void){
   adl_atSendResponse ( ADL_AT_UNS, "\r\nConfig GPIO\r\n" );
   MyGpioHandle1 = adl_ioSubscribe ( 1, MyGpioConfig1, 0, 0, 0 );
   adl_tmrSubscribe ( FALSE, 1, ADL_TMR_TYPE_100MS, GPIOHandle );
   initUART2(DATAMODE, 9600 , DATA8_STOP1 , NONE_PARITY , NO_CTS_RTS);
}

Then I just start my app so:

void main_task ( void )
{
adl_atSendResponse ( ADL_AT_UNS, "\r\nApp Begin\r\n" );
	GPIO_INIT();
}

BUt I never received any data on UART2
I want to know How can I pule LOW-HIGH-LOW >62us on a GPIO while I know that the timers are of type 100MS or 18.5ms I mean is it not to high to use ms timers where asked us timers?
Nedd your help please

What “GPS module” :question:

What “card” :question:

Do you not have any support or documentation for this “card”?

Surely that is an absolutely fundamental piece of information :question: :exclamation:

You really need to get that basic question nailed before you proceed with anything else!

I don’t think that is a valid expectation at all!

Hi,
my GPS module is a FASTRAX IT300. It is embedded in a designed card which have no documentation. I know the Tx Gpio of the GPS is pined on one GPIO of the CPU. But which one I don’t know. I simply wasted time expecting time from my UART2 while it is on a GPIO that data is supposed to flow (but I gained on FCM management on UART2 :smiley: ) What I want to know now is Rx and Tx on GPIO. Can somebody tell me something about?

Without documentation, you should consider the card essentially useless.
Throw it away!

Why are you trying to use it?

That would require you to bit-bang it - Open-AT is really not suited to that.

Again, I would recommend that you don’t waste any more time on this; get a properly documented and supported GPS unit - there are plenty available!

Hi awneil,
You said:

Thanks for your help. But all managers never want to throw away what they spent for, that’s why I’m trying to manage existant first before new ones to come (It is a particular chapter for it is to come, be sure). but I did progress. while jumping some pins on my cards I am receiving data on my Uart2.

Can somebody help me in understanding this?
Is this my PVT data that I should decode? while receiving data from my data handler as ascii, I have some cryptograms characters. So I’ùm oblige to receive it as intergers.
I will apreciate your helps.

Thanks more

If you have spent money on it, then it should have come with adequate documentation to allow you to use it!

What on earth are you (or your managers) doing messing about with undocumented stuff?!

Well, good luck with that - But be sure to fully account for the cost of your time in doing it!

Does really nobody understands something about my codes or datablocks?
I receive them as ascii, so if there’s another data type, I will apreciate.

The Datasheet for the GPS module will describe the data format(s) that it produces.
