I am getting error on Serial monitor Soft WDT reset. I decoded the error code also and found the following stacktrace.

I am using SIM808 module and DFRobot_sim808 as the library.

I tried to find solution for the same everywhere but none found it. But the same code I am trying on arduino it works but not for ESP8266. I dont have long waiting loop(). But still it gives me error.

Below is the code for the same

#include <DFRobot_sim808.h> #include <SoftwareSerial.h> #define PHONE_NUMBER "********" #define MESSAGE "hello,world" #define PIN_TX D1 #define PIN_RX D0 SoftwareSerial mySerial(PIN_RX, PIN_TX); DFRobot_SIM808 sim808(&mySerial);//Connect RX,TX,PWR, void setup() { delay(1000); mySerial.begin(9600); Serial.begin(9600); while (!Serial) { ; // wait for serial port to connect. Needed for native USB } while(!sim808.init()) { delay(1000); Serial.print("Sim808 init error\r\n"); } Serial.println("Sim808 init success"); Serial.println("Start to send message ..."); sim808.sendSMS(PHONE_NUMBER,MESSAGE); } void loop() { }

The culpret is the SIM808 library. It's not written to work well with the ESP8266.

The problem lies in this function:

boolean sim808_wait_for_resp(const char* resp, DataType type, unsigned int timeout, unsigned int chartimeout) { int len = strlen(resp); int sum = 0; unsigned long timerStart, prevChar; //prevChar is the time when the previous Char has been read. timerStart = millis(); prevChar = 0; while(1) { if(sim808_check_readable()) { char c = serialSIM808->read(); prevChar = millis(); sum = (c==resp[sum]) ? sum+1 : 0; if(sum == len)break; } if ((unsigned long) (millis() - timerStart) > timeout * 1000UL) { return false; } //If interchar Timeout => return FALSE. So we can return sooner from this function. if (((unsigned long) (millis() - prevChar) > chartimeout) && (prevChar != 0)) { return false; } } //If is a CMD, we will finish to read buffer. if(type == CMD) sim808_flush_serial(); return true; }

It has a loop that can take some time to run, and it doesn't yield() at any point to allow the ESP8266's housekeeping routines to run and "kick the dog".

Adding a call to yield() inside the while(1) loop should cure the problem.

  • Thank you very much. It worked. Really appreciated. But I am facing I more issue after 10-12 "Sim808 init error" I receive success why is it so why it does not get initialised in first attempt. Commented Sep 8, 2019 at 4:32
  • Probably waiting to connect to the network. That can take up to a minute sometimes. Commented Sep 8, 2019 at 8:41
  • Thanks for the reply. Nothing to bother. There was some contact issue between Gnd Pins of both modules. Commented Sep 9, 2019 at 10:09
