Rechargeable batteries for autonomous systems

By mvuilleu, in Electronics, october 18,2019.

One of the complex and recurring questions that we get is the use of rechargeable batteries to power autonomous measuring systems. Using a backup battery for smart phone provides an easy solution, but adequate models for this kind of use are not that frequent. Today, we present two alternatives that you can use in specific cases.

GatewayHub improvements

By seb october 11,2019.

At the beginning, the GatewayHub was a simple gateway to enable users to access Yoctopuce modules behind a NAT filter or a firewall. The code was relatively simple and the users were, and still are, free to modify it to adapt it to their own needs. In the last few years, we added other interesting features, but we somewhat neglected the web interface. This week, we correct this. Here is an overview of the modifications that we performed.

New! the Yocto-I2C

By martinm, in New stuff and Electronics, october 04,2019.

This week, we present you a new module which completes our range of electrical interfaces. The Yocto-I2C enables you to interface many quite useful small electrical circuits. We know that some of you were waiting for it impatiently...

Computations in analog electrical sensors

By mvuilleu, in Measures, september 29,2019.

We recently showed you how Yoctopuce serial interfaces could make computations on the values read in order to present them directly in a form that the user can use. Today, we show you a similar feature which is also present on some of our analog electrical sensors.

RegisterHub() and PreregisterHub()

By seb, in Programming and For the beginners, september 20,2019.

This week, we are going to clarify the use of two methods of our API: YAPI.RegisterHub() and YAPI.PreregisterHub(). These two functions enable you to adapt the library behavior to your needs, more particularly managing network disconnection when you use a YoctoHub or a VirtualHub.
