Libelium Waspmote
Libelium Waspmote - Plug & Sense! loggers can be configured to send data to eagle.io in a few easy steps.
Waspmotes can communicate directly or use a Meshlium to connect large sensor networks.
Source configuration
- Create a Data Source and select Data logger as the Source Type. Choose Libelium from the list and click Next.
- Select Waspmote / Plug & Sense! as the Model. Click Next.
- Select TCP Server as the transport type if the Waspmote will connect directly to eagle.io (alternatively jump to Step 4 for Meshlium connection). A Waspmote Id will be automatically generated. Select the timezone of the logger’s clock and click Next.
- Select Meshlium if the Waspmote will send data via a Meshlium (alternatively jump to Step 6). Enter the Meshlium Id and optional Auth key if configured in the eagle.io application on the device. Click Verify.
Note
The eagle.io application in the Meshlium device needs to be started and initial connection established with eagle.io before it can be used as a transport.
- Select the Waspmote you would like to acquire data from and click Next.
- Parameters will be automatically created on initial data acquisition. Click Finish to complete the setup.
Note
You can disable/enable parameters from the Data Source properties dialog after initial creation.
