- Physical IOT Cricket Wi Wi-Fi module module-needs to be physically integrated into the device
- Free cloud service service-prepare-integrated with Cricket
- Integration into third third-party Internet services and application ecosystems
Through this platform, you only need to integrate the Cricket module into the
device to connect the device to the Internet. It makes the device
automatically connect to the hug mutual Networked services and mobile
application (IOT) ecosystem. You also choose to send data and events to the
Internet (smartphone, notebook, Computer, PC or other services). Although the
cricket is connected via standard Wi Wi-Fi, it can still use batteries
(AAA, AA, etc.) directly Power supply supply-when using true 0A function for
many years.
See the figure below, which shows the powerful connection options available
when using the cricket module.
WIFI MODULE
Application field:
The design of cket aims to immediately report events/actions and data from
remote environments (such as homes, gardens, etc.) directly to the client
device with extremely low latency (about 3 seconds). Although it can be used
to temporarily control remote devices, it is recommended not to use it due to
the delay delay-it may be too long (more than 10 seconds). Cricket can be
regarded as a connection module to instantly send data and
events from various sensors, buttons, etc., for example, pressed Button;
temperature drop, etc.
You may already know where you can play cricket. If you plan to build
equipment to report events and from remote environments (such as homes,
gardens, etc.)
The data, this is a good module. E.g:
- Report notification when someone is at your door
- The phone rings when someone knocks on the doorbell
- Report the moisture content in flowers
- Set an alarm on the phone when the humidity is lower or higher than a certain threshold
- Report local temperature information (garden/home/room)
- Report information about windows/doors closed/opened
- Report information when the alarm sounds
- Report detected movement via email or phone ringing
- Report noise detection
- .In fact, endless applications can be used to report data and information on any senso device that can use Cricket.
Integration into third-party services
The Cricket module flexibly integrates into third-party Internet services by
using MQTT or HTTP POST requests (Webhooks). Cricket sends events and data
directly to these services. It does not require the Things on Edge cloud. You
can configure it in the Developer Portal.
It opens up unlimited Cricket configuration options for Internet services
(such as IFTTT)
Examples
HTTP POST request example: A button for sending emails over IFTT In this
example, we show how you can configure Cricket to send email notifications
with IFTTT when voltage is raised on the WAKE_UP port by using a button.
First you need to configure the IFTTT service with Webhook
- Go to: https://ifttt.com/
- Login or register
- Click Create from User / Account menu (top right corner)
- Click + to create a new source event
- Select Webhooks service
- Click Continue
- Click Receive a web request (on the left-hand side)
- Create event name e.g. email_button
- The source event should be set up now, click + after Then event
- Search email service
- Change the subject and body of the email accordingly
- Click Finish
Now you need to get an HTTP address to which you can post events from Cricket.
Search fo Webhooks service and click on the document in the right up
corner.
Copy web links under “Make a POST or GET web request to:”
Now you need to go to TOE Developer Portal and set the following configuration
for the device:
Do not forget to press the button on the Cricket module for 1 second to fetch this configuration. Now, whenever you press the attached button to Cricket’s WAKE_UP pin you receive an email.
HTTP POST request with payload tags example
This example shows how you can configure Cricket to report a temperature every
minute to your IFTTT service (for example log temperature into a Google
spreadsheet). Open Developer Portal, select your device, and set the following
configuration:
Do not forget to press the button on the Cricket module for 1 second to fetch
this configuration. Now Cricket wakes up every minute and sends both the
temperature and battery level to the IFTTT service.
The payload message sent by Cricket, for this example, looks like this
{“value1” : “120”, “value2” : “22.0”}
If you wish you can calculate back the battery voltage on the client-side with
the following formula: Batt_vcc = (3.5 / 256) * 120 = 1.64V
MQTT Example: use Mobile app
You can use any preferred MQTT client on your mobile. We recommend starting
playing either with IoT OnOff (for both Android and iOS) or IoT MQTT Panel
(Android only) which is shown as an example below
Let’s use the IoT MQTT Panel application as an example to demonstrate how to
receive and visualize data from Cricket by using a native TOE MQTT broker
(mqtt.thingsonedge.com).

Label and compliance information
Grantees are responsible for the continued compliance of their modules to the
FCC rules. This includes advising host product manufacturers that they need to
provide a physical or e-label stating
“Contains FCC ID” with their finished product. See Guidelines for Labeling and
User Information for RF Devices – KDB Publication 784748.
Explanation: On the metal shielding shell, there is space for printing basic
information such as the name and model of the product, and the id :2AW7I-VEV
is included.
Information on test modes and additional testing requirements5
Additional guidance for testing host products is given in KDB Publication
996369 D04 Module Integration Guide. Test modes should take into consideration
different operational conditions for a stand-alone modular transmitter in a
host, as well as for multiple simultaneously transmitting modules or other
transmitters in a host product.
The grantee should provide information on how to configure test modes for host
product evaluation for different operational conditions for a stand-alone
modular transmitter in a host, versus with multiple, simultaneously
transmitting modules or other transmitters in a host.
Grantees can increase the utility of their modular transmitters by providing
special means, modes, or instructions that simulates or characterizes a
connection by enabling a transmitter. This can greatly simplify a host
manufacturer’s determination that a module as installed in a host complies
with FCC requirements.
Explanation: Data transfer module demo board can control the EUT work in RF
test mode at a specified test channel.
Additional testing, Part 15 Subpart B disclaimer
The grantee should include a statement that the modular transmitter is only
FCC authorized for the specific rule parts (i.e., FCC transmitter rules)
listed on the grant, and that the host product manufacturer is responsible for
compliance to any other FCC rules that apply to the host not covered by the
modular transmitter grant of certification. If the grantee markets their
product as being Part 15 Subpart B compliant (when it also contains
unintentional-radiator digital circuity), then the grantee shall provide a
notice stating that the final host product still requires Part 15 Subpart B
compliance testing with the modular transmitter installed.
Explanation: The module without unintentional-radiator digital circuity, so the module do not require an evaluation by FCC part15 subpart B. The host should be evaluated by the FCC subpart B.
