PR merged, well done Christian :-)<br>
<br>
Just a minor issue: Mark wanted the cellular framework to not depend
on the actual modem model or maker, he added a separate build switch
CONFIG_OVMS_COMP_CELLULAR_SIMCOM to enable/disable the SIMCOM
drivers.<br>
<br>
With your new component layout, the cellular framework now needs to
link the simcom_powering module, so the build will fail with SIMCOM
disabled.<br>
<br>
The hardware dependency cannot easily be resolved, as the framework
needs to apply the specific power timing to power up the modem in
the first place, before it can identify the modem (unless the user
has configured a model).<br>
<br>
Unless someone has a clever idea how to solve this, this can IMO
still be addressed when we ever need to add a non-SIMCOM modem.<br>

great! Thanks a lot for your effort and patience. <br>
I first thought, that debugging the code without direct access

out fine.<br>
<br>
So, I will issue a PR.<br>

this looks very good now. I've mistreated my test modules in all
ways I could think of including switching off the running modem
via S1, the cellular system recovered nicely from all

Hi Michael,<br>
I think I found the problem which caused the 5360 not to
powercycle correctly. Actually the T_on time was in that
instance set to 1126913089 ms, so this will take a while!<br>
This was caused by a stupid mistake with an incorrect modulo
calculation of the timing index .<br>
<br>
I fixed the unused variables as well.<br>

the user way to power off/on the modem is via "power
cellular off/on", that's what I test/ed, and that works.<br>
<br>
After having no issues now with the 7600, I did the tests
with my old 5360 module.<br>
<br>
That generally also worked, with one exception: on one of
four crash reboots, the cellular system got stuck in
PowerOffOn state, with state ticker at 0 and no more
activity.<br>

OK, thanks Michael. <br>
At least this was an easy fix.<br>

Had a look at the NMEA code and I screwed up the

the GSM/PPP part now works smoothly with all

But the GPS part doesn't work. It looks like the
NMEA sentences are received in the MUX channel, but
not forwarded to the NMEA module.<br>

These should be the NMEA sentences, but there are no

Hi Michael,<br>
thanks for testing.<br>
<br>
The results look odd, so I went back to the
schematics of OVMS modules and realized, that I
was mistaken. The PWRKEY pin is actually inverted
in the modules as well. This definetly explains
the strange behaviour. <br>
<br>
I changed now the logic in simcom_powering.h and
the inverted PWRKEY level is now the default.<br>
<br>
Could you please run another test?<br>

well done on the 7670 support :-)<br>
<br>
I've just done some first tests of your branch
on the 7600, which turned up some issues. Logs
attached:<br>
<ul>
<li>Cold boot failed in 2 of 3 test boots,
with the driver getting stuck in a loop
(poweredon / identify / muxstart)</li>
<li>Regular shutdown fails to power down the
modem in time -- for a deep sleep phase,
this would mean the modem will remain
powered on</li>
<li>After a crash, the modem driver gets
somehow stuck in PowerOffOn state<br>
</li>
</ul>
It seems the test for reaction ("AT") sometimes
gets skipped, even though the modem isn't ready
yet.<br>
<br>
On the failed cold boot log, you can see this at
the end:<br>

I finished to integrate the Simcom 7670 modem
into the OVMS code. <br>
See <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext"
href="https://github.com/zbchristian/Open-Vehicle-Monitoring-System-3.git"
moz-do-not-send="true">https://github.com/zbchristian/Open-Vehicle-Monitoring-System-3.git</a>
branch update_cellular. <br>
<br>
Modem Powering <br>
=============== <br>
I had problems to get the 7670 working with
the current code. The modem was stuck in a
power cycle loop. <br>
<br>
I checked the Simcom documentation for the 4
models 5360, 7000 series, 7600, 7670 and the
powering procedure via the PWRKEY pin is the
same, but with different on/off timing.
Depending on the hardware, the PWRKEY can be
inverted as well. This is the case for my
Lilygo TCall board, but I think not for the
OVMS HW versions. At least version 3.1
connects the corresponding MAX7317 pin
directly to the modem. <br>
<br>
Assuming, that all hardware versions use the
PWRKEY procedure for powering, I streamlined
the code and moved the corresponding functions
into separate files (simcom_powering.cpp and
simcom_powering.h). This avoids the
duplication of the code. <br>
<br>
All this leads to substantial changes in
ovms_cellular and ovms_cellular_modem_driver
as well. <br>
<br>
The code works now perfectly for the 7670, but
testing is required for all other models. <br>
If my assumptions about the OVMS HW versions
are not correct, or the modems do not work as
documented, some modifications might be
needed. <br>
<br>
GNSS Location <br>
============ <br>
The 7670 no longer accepts the currently used
AT commands to obtain the location as a GRMC
sentence. So, I added code to the new 7670
class to request the location via the
AT+CGNSSINFO command. <br>
Since this has to be send explicitly again and
again, I implemented a corresponding call in
the StatusPoller of the 7670. <br>
All the NMEA related code has been adapted to
handle the corresponding CGNSSINFO response. <br>
<br>
<br>
In conclusion, before doing a pull request, it
would make sense that the code is tested with
the other hardware and modem models. <br>
<br>
So, tell me what you think and if the general
strategy of the mods make sense to you. <br>
<br>
Best regards <br>
Christian <br>
