Thinger.io Integration

The Milesight EM500-PT100 can be seamlessly integrated into Thinger.io through LoRaWAN network servers, enabling remote temperature monitoring, data visualization, and alert management.

Requirements

A LoRaWAN server is required to communicate the Milesight EM500-PT100 into Thinger.io. Supported options include:

Alongside, the corresponding plugin for the selected LoRaWAN server needs to be installed in your Thinger.io instance.

Get Started

Installation

Look for the plugin in the Thinger.io Plugin Store and install it in your Thinger.io instance. Once the plugin is installed, a new Product will be created for this device.

Configuration

The Product is already preconfigured. Check that the auto provision prefix matches the one selected in your LoRaWAN server plugin in Thinger.io, or change it to your preference.

Configure the device using one of the following methods: - NFC: Use the Milesight mobile app for quick configuration via NFC - USB Type-C: Connect via USB for configuration through PC software - Downlink: Configure remotely through LoRaWAN downlink commands

Usage

Start sending uplinks for autoprovisioning devices and buckets. This product provides: - Automatic device provisioning - Real-time temperature monitoring - Historical data storage and visualization - Alarm notifications based on threshold or change settings - Predefined dashboards for data analysis
