Test Your Own

  1. (optional) Have a play around with the iOS App! This is truly plug-and-play. Just download from the Apple store, connect via bluetooth and go nuts.

  2. Get your Pi running your preferred OS. I used Raspbian here.

  3. Download the Python Module onto your Pi.

  4. Plug in the GridEYE evalkit via the USB port.
    If you aren’t using the evaluation kit, no worries! The GridEYE uses the I2C protocol, and so can the Raspberry Pi. Follow this awesome tutorial by Dean Miller over at Adafruit, and you’ll be up and running in no time.

  5. Store your Data. You can simply use our python code to store it as a csv on your Pi.
    If you plan on running the GridEYE for more than a few days, the Pi won't have enough storage. We recommend storing your data with AWS
    If you want to run the Pi headless, make sure you setup your data logging software to run on boot. We used a crontab for this test, but there's many ways to do it.
