I bought a Particle Photon. I am interested in connecting temperature sensors and monitor their values through a dashboard. I request suggestions from NDC sensors and tutorials on how to achieve the above. Additionally, I have an IoT Long Range Wireless Thermocouple Temperature Sensor, what material do I need to connect the Particle with the IoT Long Range?
You can connect the particle photon to this device: https://store.ncd.io/product/particle-electron-i2c-shield-screw-terminals-2-amp-power-supply/
Use this board to overlay the Photon: https://store.ncd.io/product/xbee-overlay-shield-adapter-for-particle-photon-and-particle-electron/
And connect this module to the overlay: https://store.ncd.io/product/900hp-s3b-long-range-wireless-mesh-xbee-pro-communications-module-with-external-antenna/
I would also recommend one of these: https://store.ncd.io/product/usb-configuration-adapter-for-ncd-communication-modules/ to reconfigure the wireless modules if communications are lost.
Unfortunately we don’t have any tutorials on how to get and parse the data from the Photon modules.
We do have the wireless module profiles available for download: https://github.com/ncdcommunity/ncd.io-IoT-Wireless-Sensor-Recovery-Files
