Advance Features
In this section we will explore advance customization features of hIOTron IOT Platform.
5.1 Configure each Sensor Pin
In previous sections we have seen how easy it is to control INPUT and OUTPUT pins on HI-Gate
or Hi-Node. Now to provide fine control, dashboard allows us to configure each sensor pin. This
will open possibilities such as getting most accurate data from sensor, set rules/action and also
to export data. Let’s see how to use these features.
5.1.1 Rename
Rename feature allows you to give user defined name to particular pin/channel on our
dashboard. Let’s suppose we want to change the name of Channel A2 to Temperature. Since,
we will be going to connect analog Temperature Sensor LM35 to Pin A2. To do that we must
browse Project Setup Select project Home Automation (N-51). Under Customization,
click on View tab and in the listed channels press Gear Icon next to the channel we wish to
rename. In this case Channel A2.
Now we will be presented with a new window named Configure Channel 2 and Rename
option. There we can give any meaningful name to represent the pin functionality, unit and
multiplying factor. Just hit Next.
