I just received an IoT Long Range Wireless PIR Motion Detection Sensor [product-page] and I’d like to find out how effective it would be for detecting objects like boards moving past it? I assumed from the description that any object would do but after reading through it again the emphasis seemed to be on human detection.
My second question is about transmitting data from the sensor. I ordered a micro gateway [product-page] assuming it would be compatible but I haven’t had any luck connecting the two devices. Do I need a different gateway device?
Thanks! Let me know if I can elaborate on anything.
@andrasm You’re seeing a permission error in your local repo that seems to have set firmware.bin to be read-only. The script fetches the latest .bin files from NCD and downloads them, saving them in the repo, overwriting the ones that are already in the repo. (BTW @TravisE_NCD_Technica , I have a PR that can prevent this from occurring in the future. )
@andrasm Use the windows explorer and check the properties of the .bin files. Make sure they are not read-only. Then re-run the script.
It seems the script always downloads the latest firmware bins, so there’s no need to have a saved version in the repo. The .bin files in the repo are far out of date anyway, I believe.
