Cell phones are not the only devices that can communicate in a GSM network -a Rabbit-based control device is also on the list. Imagine your machines notifying you when they need servicing; change settings from anywhere in the world; upload data wirelessly; send commands from one machine to another; receive vehicle location/conditions via e-mail. These are all examples that combine control with wireless GPRS/GSM communications.

Rabbit Semiconductor's GPRS/GSM Application Kit provides all the tools necessary to sample and develop applications that combine a Rabbit-based control device with a GSM/GPRS modem . The libraries and sample programs allow for a device connected to the cellular network to send SMS (text) messages to a RabbitCore module (RCM) that can interpret messages as commands and in turn execute control functions. The RCM can also send/receive GPRS e-mail wirelessly to/from any PC, GSM device, or cell phone. The LCD/keypad module included in the GPRS/GSM Application Kit incorporates a menu system that provides for an easy interface to read or send text messages and e-mail.

The GPRS/GSM Application Kit includes Z-World's Dynamic C integrated development software with royalty-free TCP/IP stack and PPP module.
