Thinger.io Integration
The Grain Probe can be integrated into Thinger.io through a LoRaWAN network server, enabling centralized monitoring and management of grain storage temperature data.
Requirements
A LoRaWAN server is required to communicate the Grain Probe 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.
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 desire.
Usage
