Integration with ThingsBoard

ThingsBoard configuration

The configuration steps in ThingsBoard are shown below, we will demonstrate on the eu.thingsboard.cloud server. You can use ThingsBoard Cloud or install your own platform instance.

• [Step 1.1] Register and log in ThingsBoard Cloud;

• [Step 1.2] Go to the “Devices” page of the “Entities” section;

• [Step 1.3] Add one more device by pressing the “plus” icon in the top right corner of the table and then select “Add new device” from drop-down menu. Fill in the device name, take the Test_gateway as an example, toggle “Is gateway”, and click “Add”;

• [Step 1.4] Copy the access token, record it for gateway to connect to the ThingsBoard Cloud.

Device configuration

• [Step 2.1] Log in to the gateway with the following credentials:
  • username: root
  • password: root

• [Step 2.2] Switch to section “IOT Services” -> “Cloud Config”;

• [Step 2.3] Fill in the credentials from the ThingsBoard Cloud:
  • ThingsBoard Server: eu.thingsboard.cloud
  • Server Port: 1883
  • Insert the access token obtained in step 1.4

Additional information

• [Step 3.1] Check connection in the ThingsBoard Cloud;
• [Step 3.1.1] seen from the latest telemetry of the gateway, the information of connection is received correctly in the server;

• [Step 3.1.2] Active and connect a nearby oximter, notify the data from it;

• [Step 3.1.3] Device is correctly registered to the ThingsBoard server, and the oximeter data is received in the cloud;

• [Step 3.1.4] Test with another Zigbee temperature & humidity sensor;

• [Step 3.1.5] Manually trigger the sensor to upload data, see the data uploaded in chart.
