A7lib

A7lib is a trivial library for the arduino family used with an AI A7 GPRS/GSM/GPS shield.

The library allows you to send/receive SMS with simple OOP methods. In addition, it also allows you to receive or make phone calls, and grab current location.

Install:

$ `cd ~/Arduino/libraries`
$ `git clone https://github.com/mibs510/A7lib`

A7

If you're going to use the A7 with SoftwareSerial.h make sure to set the A7 with a baudrate of 57600. Doing otherwise will result with modem replys containing nasty characters hindering some of A7lib's function calls. Take a look here for further reading.
