  • Page 29: Python Script Interpreter

    12. Python Script Interpreter The Easy Script Extension is a feature that allows driving the modem internally, writing the controlling application directly in the Python high level language. A typical application usually consists of a microcontroller managing several I/O pins on the module through the AT command interface.
  • Page 30 The Python script is executed in a task with the lowest priority on the Telit module, so it’s execution won’t interfere with GSM/GPRS normal operations. Furthermore, this allows serial ports, protocol stack etc. to run independently from the Python script. The Python script interacts with the Telit module functionalities through several built-in interfaces, as depicted below: ...
