We have resumed testing the applicability of the LoRaWan network, in this case we will review the Dragino LA66 module, specifically the Arduino Shield, although for our tests we will connect it to the PC via a TTL-USB converter and we will test it with the ESP32 module. As I mentioned in previous tests, I…

Review LHT65N LoraWAN Temperature and Relative Humidity Sensor (Dragino)
As a programmer focused on IoT solutions that require low power consumption and long-range communication, the Dragino LHT65N stands out as an ideal choice. This device is specifically designed for temperature and humidity monitoring using LoRaWAN networks, making it a versatile tool for automation projects in industrial, agricultural, or even urban settings. With robust features,…
Review LDS02 – LoRaWAN Door Sensor (Dragino)
One of the technologies that have gained great strength in recent years such as LoRaWAN, on this occasion we will review the LDS02 Sensor. The LDS02 is a door sensor that uses LoRaWAN technology for long-range, low-power communication. Designed by Dragino, the LDS02 is ideal for monitoring doors and windows, making it a perfect choice…
Exploring the ES32A08 Expansion Board – Unlocking Powerful Control and Monitoring with ESP32
I have found this module with interesting features, which I am going to test and has as its core the already known ESP32 from Espressif, since we are resuming activities we present the ES32A08 module. The ES32A08 is a versatile and powerful expansion board designed to extend the functionality of the 38-pin ESP32 microcontroller, enabling…
ESP32 + Modbus Meter PZEM-016 RS485 and Emoncms Platform # 001
From the beginning of PDAControl we have carried out tests with the Emoncms platform, the Openenergymonitor project, initial tests with the esp8266-01 in 2014 have brought us to 2021 and the ESP32 module. Using the Peacefair PZEM-016 meter add an ESP32 module and an RS485 converter module. In this case, we will carry out…
Install Dataplicity on Raspberry Pi (Without Desktop)
This time I will share an application with great utility in our IoT projects. Dataplicity Dataplicity allows you to monitor, manage and repair your devices even when they move between cellular, satellite and fixed networks outside of your control. How does it work Dataplicity uses a secure HTTPS connection initiated by the client and opportunistically…
Download Lubuntu Virtual Machine (PDAControlMV) IoT in VirtualBox # 1
Virtualization is one of the most used methods to facilitate the compatibility of Software or simply the test of other Operating Systems, technically it is an operating system within another. I have tried for a long time Oracle VirtualBox is one of the most used virtualization software for x86 / amd64 architectures allowing virtualization. FreeBSD…
Easy Installation of Node-RED on Raspbian and Linux OS
For some time we have carried out a lot of tests with the Node-RED platform. This time we will try a method for installation established on the official website, which I consider the easiest way to install this platform in Linux operating systems (Ubuntu), emphasizing in this case Raspbian OS for Raspberry Pi. Recommended Tutorials…
Review PowerPDU 4C (Power Socket) Netio
This time I present to you a device that I have long wanted to try, thanks to the company NETIO. In this case I have acquired one of your Smart Sockets, in my case I am in America our electrical network is 110VAC, it is recommended to use the NETIO PowerPDU 4C, perfect for my…
Review Module ESP8266 with 4 Relay & Node-RED from ICStation.com
I have seen a large number of applications of ESP8266 modules controlled loads using Reles, it would take time to really design from scratch, so thanks to ICStation.com I have received an ESP8266 module with 4 outputs to Relay. ICStation.com ESP8266 WIFI 4-Channel Relay ESP8266-01 and N76E003AT20 It uses an ESP8266-01 module additionally uses…
