Overview

Yantrr Device Cloud (YDC) is cloud based software that provides complete management and reporting for your registered Yantrr device. You can access features like Device status, positioning, control, and access its data from any browser.

Overview of YDC

Getting Started

• You will have to create a user account on the YDC, if you don't already have one. Click on the “Register Now” button, and fill in the required fields. An email with the verification link is sent and clicking on this completes your Registration process.
• Once logged in, please register your device(s) using the "Register New Device" link
• The Device dashboard, is the view where all the registered Yantrr devices like the VIBE or Beaglebone Black with Vayu Capes running YCM client will be displayed.
  
• If you are accessing the YDC demo site, the site will be presented in read only mode and the user can browse some of the Yantrr Demo Devices. Some of the functionality like Registering device and Admin tab will be disabled in this demo mode.
• Please click on the "Devices" tab to get started.

Device Registration

• Step 1 : Note down the Ethernet MAC ID of your device

#ifconfig eth0
eth0      Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 38:60:77:2e:c7:a2  
          inet addr:192.168.1.150  Bcast:192.168.1.255  Mask:255.255.255.0
          inet6 addr: fe80::3a60:77ff:fe2e:c7a2/64 Scope:Link
          UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST  MTU:1500  Metric:1
          RX packets:96953 errors:0 dropped:284 overruns:0 frame:0
          TX packets:61474 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
          collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000 
          RX bytes:91913079 (91.9 MB)  TX bytes:6508982 (6.5 MB)
          Interrupt:40

Here 38:60:77:2e:c7:a2 is the ethernet MAC ID of your device.

• Step 2 : Fill the device details in device registration form

1. Login to Yantrr Device Cloud
2. Click on "Register New Device" button
3. Submit the details of your device

Note: In MAC ID field you have to type _ (underscore) instead of : (colon). Like in this case, for Ethernet MAC ID 38:60:77:2e:c7:a2 you have to type 38_60_77_2e_c7_a2.

Device Registration

On successful device registration user is redirected to Devices List page where some of demo devices provided by Yantrr and user registered device is listed.

Run Yantrr Device Client

Prerequisites :

• Beaglebone Black or VIBE/VIBE2 platform flashed with Yantrr debian image
• Device is registered on Yantrr Device Cloud & note down its Device ID. Like in this case it will be "ytr_38_60_77_2e_c7_a2"

Steps :

1. SSH into device

ssh -l root 192.168.1.150
root@192.168.1.150's password: root
root@Yantrr:~#

2. Install python-virtualenv package

#apt-get install python-virtualenv 

3. Download YES-LiteSandbox package on a device

#wget https://www.dropbox.com/s/vkgt7nlq4bdnblt/YES-LiteSandbox.tar

4. Extract the downloaded package

#tar xvf YES-LiteSandbox.tar 

5. Now Run Yantrr Device Client

#source /root/YES/bin/activate; sleep 1; python /root/YES/YantrrClient/mainRunner.py -url "ws://dev.yantrr.net:1235/ws" -c “ytr_38_60_77_2e_c7_a2” -realm SWG_Router1 & 

Note: Here “ytr_38_60_77_2e_c7_a2” is the registered Device ID of your device on Yantrr Device Cloud.

6. Now user can control device from the browser by accessing individual device dashboard of a device.

Devices List

Here a list of devices and their current status are displayed

• The Device ID generated for your registered device
• The Device description entered at the time of registration
• The current status of communication of the device with YDC
• Last connected status
• Mac ID of the device
• Some supported operations on the device (Disabled for demo use)
