Waspmote Plug & Sense!

Quick Overview

Waspmote Plug & Sense!

The new Waspmote Plug & Sense! line allows you to easily deploy wireless sensor networks in a easy and scalable way ensuring minimum maintenance costs. The new platform consists of a robust waterproof enclosure with specific external sockets to connect the sensors, the solar panel, the antenna and even the USB cable in order to reprogram the node. It has been specially designed to be scalable, easy to deploy and maintain.

Features

• Robust waterproof IP65 enclosure
• Add or change a sensor probe in seconds
• Solar powered with internal and external panel options
• Radios available: Zigbee, 802.15.4, Wifi, 868MHz, 900MHz and 3G/GPRS
• Over the air programming (OTAP) of multiple nodes at  once
• Special holders and brackets ready for installation in street lights and building fronts
• Graphical and intuitive programming interface

Sensor Probes

Sensor probes can be easily attached by just screwing them into the bottom sockets. This allows you to add new sensing capabilities to existing networks just in minutes. In the same way, sensor probes may be easily replaced in order to ensure the lowest maintenance cost of the sensor network.

Solar Powered

Battery can be recharged using the internal or external solar panel options.

The external solar panel is mounted on a 45º holder which ensures the maximum performance of each outdoor installation.

For the internal option, the solar panel is embedded on the front of the enclosure, perfect for use where space is a major challenge.

Programming the Nodes

Waspmote Plug & Sense! can be reprogrammed in two  ways:

The basic programming is done from the USB port. Just connect the USB to the specific external socket and then to the computer to upload the new firmware.

Figure 5: Programming a node

Over the Air Programming is also possible once the node has been installed. With this technique you can reprogram wirelessly one or more Waspmote sensor nodes at the same time by using a laptop and the Waspmote Gateway.

Program in minutes

In order to program the nodes an intuitive graphic interface has been developed. Developers just need to fill a web form in  order to obtain the complete source code for the sensor nodes. This means the complete program for an specific application   can be generated just in minutes. Check the Code Generator to see how easy it is  at:

Now it is much easier to receive frames Waspmote to Meshlium in an automatic way. Inside the “Sensor Network” section, the user can use the new feature Sensor Parser.

Meshlium Storage Options:

 

• Local Data Base
• External Data Base

Meshlium Connection Options:

 

• ZigBee → Ethernet
• ZigBee → Wifi
• ZigBee → 3G/GPRS

Models

There are some defined configurations of Waspmote Plug & Sense! depending on which sensors are going to be used. Waspmote Plug & Sense! configurations allows connecting up to six sensor probes at the same time.

Each model takes a different conditioning circuit to enable the sensor integration. For this reason each model allows to connect just its specific sensors.

This section describes each model configuration in detail, showing the sensors which can be used in each case and how to connect them to Waspmote. In many cases, the sensor sockets accept the connection of more than one sensor probe. See the compatibility table for each model configuration to choose the best probe combination for the application.
