A9G Low Power GPRS/GSM + GPS Module for Cellular IoT Applications | SMS, GPS Tracker & Internet

In this project, we will learn about A9 or A9G Low Power GSM/GPRS+GPS Module with Arduino. We will go through the product details and learn about its specifications. We will then interface this Module with Arduino Zero, based on 32-bit Atmel’s SAMD21 microcontroller. We will then go through a few of the AT Commands, get the GPS Location, Receive an SMS, connect to the Internet, etc.
The A9G GPS Tracker is an IoT (Internet of things) Solution-based product that integrates a micro Controller ATSAMD21G18, GRRS/GSM+GPS module A9G with best power management and storage. The A9G Module is best suited for real IoT projects such as smart-home, outdoor monitoring, long-distance monitoring, GPS Tracker, etc. The module can be operated using 3.7V Lithium-Ion Battery as it requires a 3.5~4.2V typical 4.0V supply. The power consumption of this module ranges from 1.03mA to 1.14mA depending upon the application.

I am trying to build a live tracking system with delay of max. 5 seconds from reality to map and have problems with the GPS quality. Behind a windshield the NMEA information sometimes does not update for 5, 10 oder 20 seconds even if GPS fix is 3 and there are up to 10 satellites being tracked. Will the GPS power mode affect the GPS quality and/or update frequency?

[@acoolmastashu]

Thank you bro for this amazing and very informative video, hatsoff to you for providing the valuable content on the industrial modules🔥🚀😍

[@HowtoElectronics]

Thanks bro for all the appreciation love and support

[@AminGoooo]

Please sir, I want to know if I can use the A9G GPS module to control a car's ignition without Arduino ?

[@TurboEn]

Where did u get the sim card since mostly 4g sims are available in the market

[@DJChrisPurple]

I love your video and I am a great friend of Nepal!

[@asifimrankhan5606]

Hello. I want to track the gps data and send them to my php based website to show pin on google map real time using this module. Can I use thing speak server? Can you upload a tutorial on that? Thanks.

[@srikanthchitoor]

hi.. uploaded the code of gps location but after verify of code it is showing "serial usb is not declared in scope" can u help me..

[@mohai2023]

The USB port is not read when the A9G board is connected

[@sharathlagishetty7117]

Nice video bro...many features in single module..superb explaination..

[@yashchavan4998]

Sir how we can insert program in A9g module

[@emanuelgiurgiu7189]

Great tutorial! I managed to implement a similar GPS tracker using this board but I am facing a big problem. When it's connected to the battery and I am adding a solar pannel, the board freezes. If the solar panel is removed and I am resetting the module, everything is working fine. Did you succeed in adding a solar panel and battery and have a stable working code?
Thanks

[@firazpeerjade]

Check the power, u cant drive the circuit direct from the solar pannel, add some buck boost converter.

[@mdnnjony4000]

Please give me sms revers code for arduino , suppose gpio push to sms gpio pin number

[@carlcontreras8963]

try to make were the gprs was use to send sms and location on smart phones using push button

[@MalayalamRemastered]

Can we connect it to raspberry pi

[@yogeshitaliya473]

Nice one bro all time

Sukriya bhai

[@in.a.lucid_dream]

Hello! If I wanted to use an arduino (separated from the a9g module) how could I do the configuration to interconnect the modules? could I use the same code?

[@HowtoElectronics]

Yes u can use

[@AQHackAQ]

but why? Just buy the A9G board without a microcontroller

[@nwaigbo3]

Thanks for your video,
Please can I use it to update or synchronize time ?

[@HowtoElectronics]

Yes you can use.

[@nwaigbo3]

@@HowtoElectronics Sir, thanks for your reply, please how is it done Sir?

[@nwaigbo3]

Thanks Sir, I have synchronized it with (AT+CLTS=1) and (AT+CCLK?). But I cannot extract the time and the time starts with +CCLK.

[@wanderlust6866]

Can I use A9G development board with arduino and make these things done ? I have no access with maduino . If it can be done using arduino uno and a9g development board please share the connection and code

[@TurboEn]

did u do it? if yes can u tell me which sim card did u use and was it successful connecting arduino uno with a9g module?

[@Rudzix]

So according to this video what is the average power consumption per day if we have app that let say - opens internet connection to send MQTT data every 5 minutes and then going to deep sleep?

[@HowtoElectronics]

I have tested with 20 minute interval and the 3.7V battery with capacity of 1000mah, the battery will last for more than 8-9 days as per my calculations and observation.

[@AndreasHammerschmidt]

@@HowtoElectronics I am tracking at second intervals and an 18650 with about 2800mAh lasts about 18 hours (with firmware in debug mode and logging). I am not using the M0, only custom firmware within the A9G on the pudding dev board.

[@abhijithasdeveloper3695]

Is there anyone who knows how to access data on an SD card or how to play an audio file from an SD card?

[@mramzadg]

Nice video

[@briansigilai6534]

3.30... How do you put it in sleep mode?

[@HowtoElectronics]

Use the simple arduino sleep mode code. Whenever an interrupt is detected in form of msg from phone, the device will wake up.

[@thatiotguy8837]

Which is better, A9 GPRS Module, or SIM808?

[@HowtoElectronics]

A9

[@thatiotguy8837]

How many days it took the board to be delivered?

[@HowtoElectronics]

By DHL or Fedex just less than a week, I guess.

[@monkeyman5552]

It can use 3G or 4G ?

[@HowtoElectronics]

2G

[@harshinhari1556]

Can we sent voice msge through this module please reply me bro this is urgent for our project

[@HowtoElectronics]

You cant bro
