In order to realize environmental monitoring, it is necessary to install multiple IoT terminals (wireless sensor terminals) and build a sensor network to collect various data. Then, the collected data is visualized, or data analysis/analysis is performed. Different applications have different uses for the results obtained.
In addition, it is necessary to install many IoT terminals in order to observe multiple points over a wide area, and the amount of data will increase if monitoring is continued 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.

The "EH-Terminal Starter Kit" introduced this time is a kit recommended for those who are considering installing an environmental monitoring device. The EH-Terminal Starter Kit uses a battery or a solar-powered environmental measurement/wireless sensor terminal. Just by turning on the switch, anyone can immediately build a mesh network, and it is the first in a real environment. , temperature, humidity, and illuminance can be measured.

Mesh network construction with switch ON

No special knowledge or settings are required for mesh connection between sensor nodes. A mesh network is automatically configured just by turning on the power of the EH-Terminal.
Once configured, the mesh network automatically optimizes itself even if the wireless environment temporarily deteriorates due to its self-healing function. In addition, even if a new terminal is added, it will be automatically added to the existing mesh network and optimized, reducing the user's installation burden.

Software that supports system construction

The EH-Terminal starter kit is available with software that supports system construction.

  1. Data Logger (Macnica original software)
    You can easily view measurement data. You can also output data to a .cvs file.

  2. Stargazer (provided by Linear Technology)
    You can visually see how the mesh network is configured.

  3. Splunk (courtesy of Splunk)
    It is a software that can visualize and analyze big data.
    Data from each terminal can be monitored in real time.
    Splunk can also be installed on a server for data monitoring via the cloud.

Monitoring various locations

The EH-Terminal Starter Kit does not require specialized knowledge or troublesome settings and can be used easily, so it can be used in various places such as offices, homes, agricultural fields, commercial facilities, as well as factories that require temperature, humidity, and illuminance monitoring. It can be used by those who are considering introducing environmental monitoring.
