NB-IoT 08a: Sending frames to Meshlium via HTTP
This example shows how to use HTTP requests to send Waspmote frames from Waspmote to Meshlium. Therefore, the Meshlium will be able to parse the sensor data and inset it into the database
Required Materials
1 x Waspmote 1 x Battery 1 x NB-IoT / Cat-M module 2 x NB-IoT / Cat-M antenna 1 x SIM card
Notes
- The battery has to be connected. - This example can be executed in Waspmote v15
Code
