PILOT WI-FI DEVKIT

The first step in the Astrocast’s Pilot program is the Pilot Wi-Fi DevKit testing, which features the same hardware, electrical and software interfaces as the Pilot Satellite DevKit providing you with a low latency environment to accelerate the development of the interface between your asset and the Astrocast’s platform. The kit comes with an STM Nucleo board that is pre-configured to emulate an asset, giving you a reference interface to work off as well as a sample C code that can be adapted to suit your asset.

PILOT SATELLITE DEVKIT

Following developing your application on the Pilot Wi-Fi DevKit, you can now seamlessly switch to the Pilot Satellite DevKit. It comes with a small external antenna providing everything you need to connect your asset to the Astrocast’s Pilot Satellite Network whilst enabling you to easily retrieve your sent messages via our API and online web portal. The Satellite DevKit comes mounted to a removable plastic housing allowing you to easily integrate and test with your asset. The kit also supports message acknowledgements to inform your asset when your message was successfully received by our Pilot Satellite Network.
