3G M2M development kit

12 October 2011 Design Automation

Digi International has introduced the iDigi Gateway Development Kit with 3G cellular connectivity.

The kit demonstrates how remote devices can be connected wirelessly over cellular networks and integrated into a cloud environment with ease. It contains all of the hardware, software and documentation necessary for ZigBee-to-3G cellular Internet connectivity, iDigi Web services and Digi development tools.

The kit is designed to make it easy to setup a ZigBee network, upload a custom iDigi device integration application (iDigi Dia) and provide seamless connectivity to the iDigi Device Cloud for Web services integration to standard business applications over the Internet. Using the kit, a user will be able to, for example, log into a Google App demo and remotely switch on/off a lamp and monitor its history using wireless Digi technologies.

The development kit includes the ConnectPort X4 ZigBee-to-3G cellular gateway, Digi XBee Smart Plug, battery-powered XBee temperature/light sensors, Digi ESP integrated development environment (IDE) for iDigi Dia/Python development, and related cables, battery and power supply.
