SIM900 modem usage =================== To enable SIM900 module support you need to put the following udev rule into appropriate file in /{etc,lib}/udev/rules.d: KERNEL=="gsmtty3", ENV{OFONO_DRIVER}="sim900" On the i-Tetra tracking device, the SIM900 is accessed via N_GSM mux device. We use ofono as SMS message service and incoming voice calls service, so we use /dev/gsmtty1 provided by N_GSM mux. SIM800 modem usage ================== When using sim800 modem, the udev rule is the same as the sim900 rule : KERNEL=="ttyS3", ENV{OFONO_DRIVER}="sim900" Because the SIM800 and SIM900 code are the merged into one driver.
