Getting Started with CavyIoT (using firmware)

Here is what you need to Get Started

CavyIoT account

Sign up for an CavyIoT account to get access to all CavyIoT services.

A Smartphone or Laptop

Any smartphone, laptop or desktop having Internet connectivity to monitor data and controlling your IoT device. Also for uploading example sketches and flashing firmwares to IoT Hardware through Laptop or Desktop.

IoT Hardware

We recommend NodeMCU, ESP8266 or WeMos D1 R1 for firmware and Arduino UNO for Interfacing with CavyIoT-DevBoard.

Softwares and Internet connection

Recommended softwares is Arduino IDE. Internet Connection is to connect your hardware to the Internet.

Get started in Five minutes

1

Activate IoT

Verify your E-mail address provided to us while registering with CavyIoT. After verifying your E-mail address Demo device will be created automatically to your account.

2

Install CavyIoT Library and Flash Firmware

CavyIoT Library and Firmware is an extension that runs on top of your hardware application. It handles all the connection routines and data exchange between your hardware, CavyIoT Cloud, and your IoT project.

3

Interfacing with Hardware

After flashing firmware and installing libraries. Upload any example sketch and learn our Interfacing with Hardware techniques using powerful commands and API's.

4

Enjoy! and Dictate your IoT device

After your hardware is connected spend some time learning CavyIoT basics. It will help you to easily build new projects or integrate CavyIoT into your existing project.
