Communication in Sigfox networks
The
Sigfox technology allows cheap, safe and long-distance
IoT communications while keeping the energy consumption very low.
Typical examples of
Sigfox network usage are remote readings of water consumption, electricity consumption, gas consumption, temperatures, humidity, flow, parking sensors, Industry 4.0, SmartCity, security devices, logistics etc.
Communication of the PROMOTIC application with cloud service
IoT sensors send the data into the
cloud service backend.sigfox.com. The PROMOTIC application can then read the data (including the history).
For reading the data it is handy to use the preconfiguration:
Note:
Now only 3-day history is available (can be extended to
30 days by payment).
History:
Pm9.00.09: New version of cloud interface
API (
backend.sigfox.com).
API "v1" was switched off (27.4.2020) and now only the API v2 is available. Business modifications: the 12 month history of messages was removed. Now only 3-day history is available (can be extended to
30 days by payment). Technical modifications: modification of the URL for calling the methods, modification of values representing the time (timestamp in milliseconds since Unix Epoch). Fixed preconfiguration.
