How to receive Sigfox data from QNAP QIoT Suite Lite

Setting QIoT Suite Lite

• Establish an IoT Application, Things, and Resource (please refer to the tutorial: How to show DHT11 data on QIoT Dashboard? )

• To learn how to acquire for Resource HTTP and HTTPS, please refer to the followings two links:
  How to connect to QIoT Suite Lite using HTTP?
  How to connect to QIoT Suite Lite using HTTPS?

• If your NAS is on extranet (no firewall) or your router has set up port transmission already, then you can refer to Resource HTTP and HTTPS page and you do not need to follow this step and also can go to next section for "Setting Sigfox".
  

• If your NAS  can not acquire actual IP and also can not setup the firewall, then you may refer to the following page to use ngrok service: https://ngrok.com/

• The following steps (Step A to F)  is for your reference only and is provided by third party. After installing application, we will not be responsible for any consequences.

1. In Container Station > "Create Container" > searching for "wernight/ngrok"  and click "create"


2. Click "Next"
   
   


3. Click "Advanced Settings" > "Environment", click "Add" and enter the following information
   
   *Note 1: Value of NGROK_PORT will be a port transmission, because ngrok is in container station so the IP address have to set up as docker nat gateway IP then can be connect to your Host.  (Default value: 10.0.3.1). PORT setting please refer to "HTTP resourceinfo.json" info, and the default value:23000.
   
   *Note 2: Other reference, please refer to:  https://hub.docker.com/r/wernight/ngrok/
   
    


4. Go to "Network", and click "Add":
          Host: 4040
          Container: 4040
          Protocol: TCP


5. Click "Create"


6. Go to browser, enter " http://your NAS IP:4040/ " and you can acquire your tunnel URLs

Setting Sigfox

• You have to register sigfox account and open your device first. You may refer to: http://makers.sigfox.com/getting-started/

• Go to https://backend.sigfox.com/
  

• Go to "DEVICE TYPE", click the device name you want

• Choose "CALLBACKS" and click the upper right corner  "NEW" to establish a Callback

• Click "Custom callback"

• Enter the following information and click ok then can finish the setting

• Type : DATA, UPLINK


• Channel : URL


• Url pattern :  URL from QIoT Suite Lite HTTP (If you use Router NAT port transmission or ngrok service then you have to use the URL from them)


• Use HTTP Method : POST


• Send SNI : If you use SSL/TLS and you have to click it


• Headers : Filling in the information from your  QIoT Suite Lite HTTP (refer to the followings two links:


• How to connect to QIoT Suite Lite using HTTP?


• How to connect to QIoT Suite Lite using HTTPS?


• Content type : application/json

• Body : Refer to the screenshot with yellow color (There are two example as below)
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  • Example 1:
      {
           "device" : "{device}",
           "data" : "{data}",
           "time" : "{time}",
           "snr" : {snr},
           "rssi" : {rssi},
           "station" : "{station}",
           "lat" : {lat},
           "lng" : {lng}
       }
  
  
  •  Example 2:  (If your QIoT Suite Lite version is before "1.0.XX" (included) then you have to add a value key at first)
  
  
  
  
  
             { “value”:  
                  {
                      "device" : "{device}",
                      "data" : "{data}",
                      "time" : "{time}",
                      "snr" : {snr},
                      "rssi" : {rssi},
                      "station" : "{station}",
                      "lat" : {lat},
                      "lng" : {lng}
                          }
                    }

• After setting, you can receive the sigfox data from QIoT Suite Lite
