3.6.2.6 Using GPIO7 pin as BUZZER OUTPUT (alternate function)

When you set the GPIO7 pin as buzzer output function, the pin will output a waveform suitable to drive
a Buzzer, provided a simple external mosfet driver is developed and that the #SRP settings are
adequate. To set the pin in alternate function you must specify also a dummy value for the pin state:

Send command

AT#GPIO=7,<dummy_value>,2<cr>

where:
<value> is a dummy value can be either:

0 – dummy value
1 – dummy value

wait for response

OK


TIP: Remember that the alternate function places the GPIO7 pin always in OUTPUT direction
and since the GPIO7 pin value is controlled by the internal software, the corresponding
function (#SRP) must be setup properly.

NOTE: The #GPIO7 direction setting is saved and will be kept after a power off.

For example:
1- Let's assume you want to set GPIO7 pin as BUZZER OUTPUT:
command:
AT#GPIO=7,0,2<cr>
response:
OK

In this case, the GPIO7 pin was successfully put in buzzer output direction.
