NodeMCU SIM800L GPS | ESP8266 GPS Tracker With SMS

[@swaroopthikane1757]

Sir used sim900a instead of 800 will it work?

[@BANGYUUAYE]

Hello, you can connect to blynk only using esp8266 or you have to use esp32

[@TeachMeSomething]

Led blinking 3sec once after uploading program or before uploading program.?

[@AhmadLogs]

when we connect battery to sim800l, the led of sim800l must blinks every three seconds (it does not belongs to code uploading, it is belongs to powering sim800l). led must blinks every 3 seconds all the time while the battery is connected. to test the sim800l, just power it without connecting any other component (nodemcu, gps module). the led of sim800l still blinks.

hello thanks for the video, I have a concern at the time of making the sentence "if(senderNumber == PHONE)" in the serial console the else of that shows me where it tells me that "Phone not registered "I print the variable "PHONE" and the variable "sender number" and the only difference is that it does not come with the code of my country, in which part of the code should I add it or what could I be doing wrong, it would be of great help if I you solved this doubt, thank you

[@AhmadLogs]

add the following line of code. senderNumber = "ENTER_YOUR_COUNTRY_CODE"+senderNumber; before the below if condition if(senderNumber == PHONE)

[@ashyaziz9025]

Is it possible to upload multiple codes in a one module like the GPS neo6? Because our gps is connected in our MIT app and I also want to connect it into my sim800l. It's like dual purpose. I can track in MIT at the same time, I can also receive the gps coordinates.

[@AhmadLogs]

yes it is possible. you need to add the code for both functions.

1. the connection are same for sim900A. 2. in the code you need to change the baud rate. check the default baud rate from the sim900a datasheet 3. yes, you can use without gps module
