iDigi Gateway Development Kit
Development kit for ZigBee gateways and iDigi platform
- Jump-start application development with prepackaged kit
- Learn how to discover and configure devices in a ZigBee network
- Read temperature and light values from the ZigBee network via iDigi Device Cloud™
- Provide IP connectivity (Ethernet or cellular/WiMAX) to the ZigBee network with a ConnectPort X4 gateway
- Google App Engine™ platform and supporting code provide a simple example of a business application working with iDigi
The iDigi Gateway Development Kit is designed to make it easy to setup a ZigBee network, upload a custom iDigi Dia application, and provide seamless connectivity to the iDigi Device Cloud for web services integration to standard business applications over the Internet. The kit contains:
- ConnectPort® X4 ZigBee to Ethernet (or cellular/WiMAX) gateway
- Digi XBee Smart Plug™ (non-US versions substitute XBee® Range Extender)
- Battery-powered XBee temperature/light sensor
- Digi ESP Integrated Development Environment (IDE) for iDigi Dia/Python development
- Related cables, batteries and power supply
Kit users will explore three key aspects of Digi technology: ZigBee networking and gateway fundamentals, local customization on the gateway using iDigi Dia/Python software, and iDigi web services. The kit also provides an example of how a business application would utilize real-time sensor data via web services and Google Apps.
iDigi Manager Pro is a feature of all Digi cellular gateways, routers, devices and components. iDigi Manager Pro provides a robust suite of network management tools including authentication, configuration management, account management, asynchronous updates and alerts, group and individual software updating, network data storage and gateway programming.
