module microcat1

This module provides a high-level interface for the MicroCat.1 board.

Example usage:

import microcat1

m = microcat1.modem()
m.active(True)
m.connect('your_apn', 'your_apn_username', 'your_apn_password')
# ... send/receive data ...
m.disconnect()

microcat1.modem(cls=<class 'SIM7672.modem'>, *args, **kwargs)

Create and return a modem instance for MicroCat.1.

By default this instantiates SIM7672.modem; pass a compatible class via cls to use a different implementation. Any additional positional and keyword arguments are forwarded to the modem constructor.

Parameters:

• cls – Modem class to instantiate (default: SIM7672.modem)

• args – Positional arguments forwarded to the modem constructor

• kwargs – Keyword arguments forwarded to the modem constructor

Returns:

A modem instance (by default a SIM7672.modem)
