Smart monitoring system STEVAL-IFS014V1
and STEVAL-IFS015V1, based on the STM32x
Introduction
This document explains the functioning of the "smart monitoring system" and also serves as
a quick reference manual to operate the system. The smart monitoring system works on
ZigBee
®
wireless technology and measures temperature, humidity and light intensity of 9
remote and different locations simultaneously. The system also demonstrates the wireless
control of home appliances and can serve as a basis for many new systems.
The objective of this demonstration board is to design a complete system which
demonstrates the effectiveness of low data rate wireless solutions from ST in automating
various measurements for weather parameters. This system can be further interfaced to
take an appropriate action based on the parameters being monitored. The system can very
easily be modified to control various household appliances by suitable additional hardware.
This system uses various devices, the most relevant are the STM32x (microcontroller),
SPZB260 (ZigBee
®
device), LIS331DLH (MEMS), STMPE811 (touchscreen controller),
STLM20 (temperature sensor) and various power supply components along with the battery
charger. The system has been designed taking future expandability into consideration.
The system can be powered up using:
■
External power supply
■
3.7 V Li-Ion battery
To summarize, the key features of the system are:
■
Wireless network
■
Monitoring of weather parameters (temperature, humidity, light intensity)
■
Wireless light control application
■
Node movement and simultaneous node movement detection
■
Various weather warning configurations and alarm messages
■
TFT display with touchscreen
■
Real-time clock along with alarm configurations
■
Data logging for more than one year
■
GUI for data reading, saving and analysis using graphs
■
Power management system
■
Battery charging capability
■
Embedded in-circuit programming capability using JTAG
