I have a Portenta X8 and a Max Carrier and would like to use the GSM modem on the linux side. I am not sure if there is any tutorial or Python library or command line example to configure and communicate with the SARA modem. I would like to be able to send SMS with it. Thank you for you help.
It sounds like you need to do a lot of reading. When you have a wiring diagram and mostly working code, read the pinned post re how to get the most from the forum.
Hello,
Thank you for your help.
I read the complete documentation regarding the Portenta X8 and the MaxCarrier. There is nothing in it defining clearly how to access the modem from the Linux side of the X8 unless I miss something. There is a wiring diagram, in the MaxCarrier schematic. You have to go through to see that the modem is connected to Serial_1 and USB_H2. Nothing saying what in /dev pointing to those. I am just looking for someone that can tell me what the best option USB or UART and how to access to it and if there is some special command to do so. Also if there is any special libraries for it, I could not find any.
Thank you again.
