Rock Pi Temperature Sensor [The easy Way!]

Rock Pi's are the alternate to Raspberry Pi's there are versatile , ideal for industrial applications and have a broader range of models to choose from to suit user specific needs.

They have been proven to provide a robust supply chain to ensure continuity in deployment of projects. A common sensor integration is temperature sensor used for many applications. This guide shows how to make a Rock Pi Temperature sensor using the USB port . our  sensors are ideal for these applications for hobbyists and increasingly industrial and commercial deployments.

Fastest route to integrating a Rock Pi temperature sensor to get onto coding right away !

 Required

 • Rock PI with USB Port 

• OnlineSensors Ltd UTS - USB Temperature sensor 

Can be purchased as a bundle here

 Prerequisites 

• Rock Pi installed with Debian 

• Access to Rock pi terminal 

• Python 3 installed /sudo apt-get install python3.6 

• pyserial installed pip install pyserial 

• Transfer the supplied python script to the Rock pi 

 Steps to stream Rock Pi temperature 

1. Insert UTS into a USB port of the Rock pi and open the terminal 

2. find USB port with ls /dev/*USB*

3. update the python script using nano UTSPI.py with the displayed USB port. Exit and save 

4. Run command  run sudo chmod 666 /dev/ttyUSB0 

5. Run Command run python3 UTSPI.py  

Here the OnlineSensors UTS-T11 USB temperature sensor is streaming temperature data to the Rock Pi terminal console.
