CCS/TM4C1294NCPDT: WebClient

Part Number: TM4C1294NCPDT


Tool/software: Code Composer Studio

I need to connect to any online server through TM4C, I realized that there are two ready examples, 'qs_iot.c' and 'enet_weather.c'.

What is the difference between the two examples?
Is there any example better constructed than the other?
Do they both have the same functionality?

  • Hi Simion,

      I will suggest you start with enet_weather for two reasons. First, enet_weather is simpler compared to the qs_iot. The enet_weather example will connect to  the openweathermap.org using the HTTP GET command to retrieve the weather information. Once the weather data is retrieved, much of the example is to process and display the data on the terminal window. The current qs_iot example in the TivaWare 2.1.4.178 requires connecting to a server hosted by Exosite company. You will need to setup an account and I believe the server has been taken down since March. There is a plan to release a modified qs_iot example as an application note based on the latest TivaWare version in the future. Until then, please use the enet_weather as reference for connecting to the internet.
