Description
With TapNLink Primer, it takes just minutes for system designers to create their first IoT proofs-of-concept. The Primer connects microcontroller-based systems to mobile devices via Wi-Fi, Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) or Near Field Communication (NFC) interface. Users can rapidly and easily create Human-Machine Interfaces (HMI) that run as mobile apps for any microcontroller-based system.
The Primer connects to a target MCU using only 2 GPIO and either:
-
Serial protocol (S3P – Sofware Secure Serial Protocol)
-
SWD (debug) protocol for ARM Cortex M-based microcontrollers
The Primer implements by configuration only. There is no coding or hardware to design. Just specify the variables in the target system, set access rights and display parameters. The Primer's configuration software, IoTize Studio, automatically generates the HMI for your mobiles (Android, iOS).
In just minutes, you will be able to connect a mobile to your microcontroller application, and view, or change data from your mobile app.
