How to connect Seeed Studio SenseCAP to Cloud Studio IoT
SenseCAP is Seeed Studio's line of industrial LoRaWAN devices: the S210x sensors for air and soil, the S2120 8-in-1 weather station, the S2100 data logger and the T1000 trackers, among others. They reach Cloud Studio IoT through the LoRaWAN network server you already use: the network server decodes each uplink with the official SenseCAP decoder, and the platform stores the readings and turns them into dashboards, alarms and reports.
How to connect it
- 1
Register the sensors on your network server
Add each SenseCAP sensor to The Things Stack, LORIOT or ThingPark X with its DevEUI and keys. In The Things Stack, pick the model from the device repository and SenseCAP's official decoder is applied for you.
- 2
Connect the network server to the platform
Set up the Cloud Studio integration once per network server: a webhook in The Things Stack, an application output in LORIOT or the ThingPark X IoT Flow connection. It needs your instance name and an access token.
- 3
Create the devices in Cloud Studio IoT
Add each sensor with its address and model. A natively supported model decodes on its own. Otherwise, create a device model whose script reads the decoded data with payload.asParsedObject(). SenseCAP decoders return each reading as a measurementId with its value (4097 is air temperature, 4098 air humidity), so the script maps each id to an endpoint.
- 4
Put the readings to work
Each reading becomes a device variable that you can show on dashboards, use in alarms by email or SMS and include in scheduled reports.
What you get
- SenseCAP sensors on the same dashboards as devices from any other brand
- Alarms by email, SMS, WhatsApp, voice call or push when a reading goes out of range
- White label and a tenant per client, if you install sensors for others
