Node registration
The Wireless Bridge logs your sensor values to the CloudBridge website for remote
viewing. Before the gateway can affect these changes, data channels should be created for
each node on the CloudBridge site. Also, the API Keys should be programmed into the
Gateway to enable identification and communication with the CloudBridge platform. The
utility simplifies configuration by automating these actions.
