There are different firmwares for different flavours of sensor nodes. We have single sensor nodes with GPRS uplink and tandem nodes using RF radio links to communicate between multiple sensor nodes and a single gateway node.
List of GSM-based firmwares.
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
open-hive-firmware-gprs |
node-gprs-http.ino is the firmware source code powering the Open Hive Box. It transmits sensor data by HTTP using the GPRSbee GSM modem. |
List of WiFi-based firmwares, all are based on the ESP8266.
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
node-wifi-http |
node-gprs-http.ino is the firmware source code powering the Open Hive WiFi Solar sensor node based on the ESP8266 core for Arduino. It transmits sensor data using WiFi/HTTP. |
node-wifi-mqtt-homie |
node-wifi-mqtt-homie.ino is the firmware based on the ESP8266 framework for Homie for powering the »ESP8266 beehive scale by Alexander Wilms«. It transmits sensor data using WiFi/MQTT. See also the alternative variant node-wifi-mqtt-homie-battery. |
node-wifi-mqtt |
node-wifi-mqtt.ino is the source code for a preliminary/testing firmware powering the Open Hive Adafruit Feather HUZZAH based on the ESP8266 core for Arduino. It transmits sensor data using WiFi/MQTT. |
List of Yún-based firmwares.
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
node-yun-http |
node-yun-http.ino is the firmware source code powering the Mois Box. It transmits sensor data by HTTP using the Bridge Library for Yún devices. |
List of radio-based firmwares using the beradio:beradio protocol.
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| node-rfm69-beradio | node-rfm69-beradio.ino collects sensor data, encodes it using beradio:beradio and sends it through a RFM69 radio transceiver module to a gateway node. This is the first version of the firmware running on hiveeyes:hiveeyes-one since February 2016. |
| gateway-rfm69-beradio | gateway-rfm69-beradio.ino receives sensor data over radio and forwards it to the UART interface, which is connected to the serial port of the gateway machine. In turn, beradio-python <beradio:beradio-python> reads this data, decodes the beradio:beradio protocol and forwards it to the MQTT bus. |
List of radio-based firmwares using CSV serialization.
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
open-hive-firmware-rfm69-node |
node-rfm69-csv.ino collects sensor data, encodes it using CSV and sends it through a RFM69 radio transceiver module to a gateway node. |
open-hive-firmware-rfm69-gateway-uart |
gateway-rfm69-csv-uart.ino receives sensor data over radio and forwards it to the UART interface suitable for further downstreaming to MQTT using the beradio-python <beradio:beradio-python> gateway. |
open-hive-firmware-rfm69-gateway-sdcard |
gateway-rfm69-csv-sdcard.ino receives sensor data over radio and stores it to a SD card on an Arduino Yún. |
List of tool firmware.
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
scale-adjust-firmware |
Use these firmwares for adjusting the scale / load cell unit. |
The next generation firmwares are currently a work in progress.
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| node-terkin-next | We started working on node-terkin-next.ino, a playground sketch for building a generic transmitter machinery in June 2016. |
generic-firmware |
We started working on generic.ino, a flexible software breadboard for RFM-based nodes, transceivers and gateways in June 2016. |
