Advantech implements some Node-RED nodes for better development experience.
  
==Node-RED for Alljoyn==
+
==Overview==
We plan to provide three kinds of Node-RED nodes for Alljoyn feature.
+
In this section, we talk about the basic operations for Node-RED. Here, we take WSN node as an example.
*Action Handler
+
# Open your browser, enter Advantech IoT Gateway's IP address with Node-RED port 1880 to open Node-RED web page.
*Event Reader & Rule Engine
+
# On the left of the page, scroll down to find '''wsn-'''related nodes in Advantech section as depicted below.
*ControlPanel Client
 
 
 
===Installation===
 
You can install the [https://www.npmjs.com/package/node-red-contrib-alljoyn node-red-contrib-alljoyn] via NPM, or download it on [https://github.com/ADVANTECH-Corp/node-red-contrib-alljoyn GitHub].
 
 
 
===Usage===
 
Please refer to [https://github.com/ADVANTECH-Corp/node-red-contrib-alljoyn/blob/master/README.md README].
 
 
 
 
 
==Node-RED for WSN==
 
Wireless Sensor Network(WSN) is supported on Advantech WISE-3310 and all provided features are basically described by REST API respectively.  
 
For users to quickly access the WSN features and build the prototype control logic flow of application before knowing the detailed REST API manipulation and programming, We provide the following Node-Red nodes to easily read the information and access functions of WSN on Advantech WISE-3310.
 
*wsn-gw
 
*wsn-senhub
 
  
===Usage===
 
# In the browser, enter Advantech IoT Gateway's IP address with Node-RED port 1880 to open Node-RED web page.
 
# On the left of the page, scroll down to find wsn-related nodes in Advantech section as depicted below.
 
# Drag and drop wsn-related nodes into '''Sheet''' to start building control flow.

Connect to Freeboard

The output of wsn-related nodes could be redirected as the data source of freeboard. The following example shows how to get the remote CO2 reading and display it on freeboard.

Create URL

Build the control flow using native http as input node of wsn-senhub node, and http response node as output node.

Wsn-freeboard create http-link.png


As the result of this control flow, an URL : http://GatewayIP:1880/co2_reading is created for sending HTML request to get CO2 reading.


Control Flow Code 

The code of the complete control flow is :

[{"id":"4b342443.b4cbdc","type":"wsn-senhub","z":"36dfd115.c9202e","name":"","operNow":"Get","intfNow":"WSN/WSN0(00170d0000603a0e)","devNow":"00170d0000304ab4","topicNow":"SenData","attribNow":"CO2","setvalue":"0","operSaved":"Get","intfSaved":"WSN/WSN0(00170d0000603a0e)","devSaved":"00170d0000304ab4","topicSaved":"SenData","attribSaved":"CO2","intfOpts":"<option value=\"WSN/WSN0(00170d0000603a0e)\">WSN/WSN0(00170d0000603a0e)</option>","devOpts":"<option value=\"00170d000060339c\">00170d000060339c</option><option value=\"00170d0000304ab4\">00170d0000304ab4</option><option value=\"00170d0000602e5a\">00170d0000602e5a</option>","topicOpts":"<option value=\"Info\">Info</option><option value=\"SenData\">SenData</option><option value=\"Net\">Net</option><option value=\"Action\">Action</option>","attribOpts":"<option value=\"Temperature\">Temperature</option><option value=\"Humidity\">Humidity</option><option value=\"CO2\">CO2</option>","x":388.3333435058594,"y":89.33332824707031,"wires":[["1382358.fec7dca"]]},{"id":"417769.ffbe8898","type":"http in","z":"36dfd115.c9202e","name":"","url":"/co2_reading","method":"get","swaggerDoc":"","x":182,"y":89,"wires":[["4b342443.b4cbdc"]]},{"id":"1382358.fec7dca","type":"http response","z":"36dfd115.c9202e","name":"","x":561,"y":89,"wires":[]}]

Node-RED for Alljoyn

We plan to provide three kinds of Node-RED nodes for Alljoyn feature.

  • Action Handler
  • Event Reader & Rule Engine
  • ControlPanel Client

Installation

You can install the node-red-contrib-alljoyn via NPM, or download it on GitHub.

Usage

Please refer to README.

Demo


Node-RED for WSN

Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) is supported on Advantech IoT Gateway and all provided features are basically described by REST API respectively. For users to quickly access the WSN features and build the prototype control flow of application before knowing the detailed REST API manipulation and programming, we provide the following Node-RED nodes to easily read the information and access functions of WSN on Advantech IoT Gateway.

  • wsn-gw
  • wsn-senhub

Installation

You can install the node-red-contrib-wsn via NPM, or download it on GitHub.

Usage

Please refer to README.

Node: wsn-gw

Node to get the information and set functions of a Advantech WSN gateway platform, triggered by an input message. Outputs a msg with msg.payload containing the JSON description of reading or result. During configuration, it will automatically detect available options for Network, Category, and Attribute in real time.

Node: wsn-senhub

Node to get the information and set functions of a remote SensorHub (ex. WISE-1020) controlled by Advantech WSN gateway platform, triggered by an input message. Outputs a msg with msg.payload containing the JSON description of reading or result. During configuration, it will automatically detect available options for Network, on-line sensorhub, and Attribute in real time.

WSN Sensor/Actuator Demo

Besides reading information, we can create more complex control flow using wsn-related nodes introduced above with native Node-RED nodes.

Here is a demo shows how to interact with sensor and actuator, and build a connection between them.

Wsn sen-act demo.png


In this demo, a wsn-senhub node is used to retrieve the CO2 reading from a remote sensor hub. The CO2 reading is verified by the next node using pre-defined threshold value. The result of this judgement is then sent to a wsn-senhub node to turn on/off a fan which is controlled by another remote sensor hub.
