Arduino Sensor Plugin

The Arduino sensor plugin allows you to build your own cheap wireless sensors (<$10) and communicate with them. For wireless transmissions, Nordic Semiconductors transceiver rf2401 is used. See separate pages for how to hook up it to your Arduino. The plugin automatically creates the sensor devices it finds on the radio network.

Installing and using the plugin

From apps.mios.com

Remember to set the serial usb port used by connected Nano board.

From downloaded source

Arduino Receiver Sketch

This sketch should be downloaded to a Arduino Nano which is connected to your Vera using the serial usb cable. Connect the the radio module to your Nano board.

All communication from/to your sensors is transmitted through this device.

It is important to use a Nano board because it uses serial usb chipset recognized directly by Vera (the Uno does not!).
