Bridging network adapters to share Internet connection with your RPi2/Windows 10 IOT Core

In my previous post, I shared about the workaround in order to share Internet connection via ICS when the option is disabled due to domain group policy. I learned that there is an easier option to share the Internet connection of your Wi-Fi adapter to devices connected to your Ethernet adapter, like a Raspberry Pi… Continue reading Bridging network adapters to share Internet connection with your RPi2/Windows 10 IOT Core

Windows 10 IoT Core / Raspbian on Raspberry Pi 2 using Windows 10’s Internet Connection Sharing (ICS)

You just got yourself a Raspberry Pi 2 (RPi 2). You could be running Raspbian or Windows 10 IoT Core. You don’t have access to a hub/switch/router to connect the RPi 2 for Internet connection. The next best solution is by connecting the RPi 2 to your PC via Ethernet and sharing your Wi-Fi’s internet… Continue reading Windows 10 IoT Core / Raspbian on Raspberry Pi 2 using Windows 10’s Internet Connection Sharing (ICS)

Azure API App – FTP Connector – How to solve “227 Entering passive mode error”

I really like the Azure Logic Apps. It reminds me of the good old days of workflows in WF except that this meant for simple workflow logic, but it does the trick. I particularly like the FTP Connector and the Azure BLOB connector. Due to the trigger function not yet implemented in the Azure BLOB… Continue reading Azure API App – FTP Connector – How to solve “227 Entering passive mode error”

Using Azure Stream Analytics to tap into an Event Hub data stream

The pre-requisite is to make sure that you have requested for Stream Analytics preview if you have not already done so. 1. Create a Stream Analytics job. Jobs can only be created in 2 regions while the service is under preview. 2. Add an input to your job., This is the best part because we… Continue reading Using Azure Stream Analytics to tap into an Event Hub data stream

Send accurate temperature data from Raspberry Pi to Azure Event Hub

This is a follow-up post to my previous one which is about sending accurate temperature data from the MCP9808 temperature sensor board to an Azure Event Hub. This is done through the MCP9808 Python library provided by Adafruit, and also one which I have repurposed from the Xtrinsic sensor board. This is the updated version.… Continue reading Send accurate temperature data from Raspberry Pi to Azure Event Hub

Installing Windows Developer Program for IoT image on Intel Galileo Gen 2

In order to setup and install the Windows image onto Intel Galileo Gen 2, the best way is to follow the setup instructions in the Windows Developer Program for IoT. Please be very careful with the folder where you will save the .cmd and .wim file. The best is to store the downloaded files in… Continue reading Installing Windows Developer Program for IoT image on Intel Galileo Gen 2

How to send sensor data from Raspberry Pi to Azure Event Hub using a Python script

This post follows what I intended to do which is to pump sensor data consisting of temperature and altitude readings from the Xtrinsic sensor board to my Azure Event Hub named getfityall. The sensor board comes with some Python scripts already as you have seen in my earlier posts. Coupled with Microsoft Azure Python packages from the SDK,… Continue reading How to send sensor data from Raspberry Pi to Azure Event Hub using a Python script

Fresh raspberry pi at my service

I am super glad that the items I ordered from Element14 arrived overnight. I got not one but 3 MEMS Sensor board, and it is working well. Proof that I somewhat “overused” the previous board so much so that the temperature and altitude reading stopped working. pi@raspberryclay ~/rpi_sensor_board $ sudo python mpl3115a2.py MPL3115: Alt. 100.24 Temp:… Continue reading Fresh raspberry pi at my service

Sending sensor board data from Raspberry Pi to Intelligent Systems Service (ISS)

I have been mucking around with the Xtrinsic-sense board which is an add-on to my Raspberry Pi. In my previous post, I had executed the Python scripts that came with the sensor library that I cloned out of this github. There is a good article that explains about how to enable Xtrinsic-sense board in Raspbian. However… Continue reading Sending sensor board data from Raspberry Pi to Intelligent Systems Service (ISS)

How to get Raspberry Pi to work with TP-Link TL-WN721N USB Wi-Fi adapter

Wow! It’s taken me over a week to find just the right combo of advice from a number of really helpful blogs to help me setup raspberryfai with mt TP-Link TL-WN721N USB WiFi adapter. I tried so many different steps that I couldn’t remember what I’d done. I thought that the wicd-curses utility would work… Continue reading How to get Raspberry Pi to work with TP-Link TL-WN721N USB Wi-Fi adapter
