Yocto-Visualization and Windows XP

By martinm, in Measures, august 31,2018.

As some of you have already noticed it, version 2 of our Yocto-Visualization application doesn't run under Windows XP. Actually, it uses the .NET 4.5 framework which you can't install on Windows XP. This week, we show you how to work around this issue.

Using Yocto-Visualization with a YoctoHub-GSM

By martinm, in Measures and Internet of Things, august 10,2018.

Yocto-Visualization enables you to very easily visualize data from Yoctopuce sensors, whether they are connected by USB or through a network hub, with the exception of the YoctoHub-GSM. Indeed, the GSM SIM cards available to ordinary people do not have a public IP address and are behind a NAT filter, which prevents the Yocto-Visualization to connect itself directly on it. However, there is a way to work around this issue.

Level monitoring and leak detection

By mvuilleu, in Measures, july 13,2018.

On these hot Summer days, we propose to discuss today two classical topics of remote monitoring: monitoring the level of a tank and detecting water leaks (or other liquid leaks). For these two applications, we are going to show you how you can interface existing sensors with Yoctopuce modules.

Yocto-Visualization V2 on Linux

By martinm, in Measures and New stuff, july 06,2018.

Stripping the Yocto-Visualization V2 application of all third party libraries has an interesting side effect: one may try to compile it with Mono and make it run on operating systems other than Windows. So we tried to make a Linux version... and it works!

How to build a precision USB Ohmmeter

By mvuilleu, in Measures, june 22,2018.

Customers sometimes ask us how to measure the electrical resistance of a circuit by USB using a Yoctopuce module, as we didn't implement a Yocto-Ohm module. Therefore, we are going to explain today how to use other existing Yoctopuce modules to easily measure resistors. You'll see that it's not only possible, but also that you can obtain an excellent accuracy.
