Thinger.io Integration

The Milesight WS202 integrates with Thinger.io through LoRaWAN network servers, enabling remote monitoring of motion detection and light levels. The integration allows for automated workflows, data visualization, and real-time alerting based on occupancy and lighting conditions.

Requirements

A LoRaWAN server is required to communicate the Milesight WS202 into Thinger.io, some options are:

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.
