Polaris-Arduino

Arduino application for Polaris IoT platform

Build Requirements

To install Polaris board support package in Arduino IDE see: https://github.com/fortebit/fortebit-openiot-arduino-boards

When you compile the software, make sure you enable floating point support in the "C Runtime Library" settings and you select the "Modem Model" that matches your Polaris board variant (2G, 3G, NB-IoT).

Before compiling, copy the tracker.h.example file to tracker.h and customize it to your liking. Use tracker.h.legacy as a base if you need compatibility with the legacy OpenTracker protocol.

Notes

For further customization you can copy addon.ino.example to addon.ino and enable the add-on interface in your tracker.h with:

#define ADDON_INTERFACE 1

The provided examples both connect to the Polaris Cloud service via HTTP requests, either using the new JSON-based protocol or the legacy OpenTracker protocol with sensor data extension.
