The WS1102 is a compact Tibbo BASIC/C-programmable wireless controller equipped with an RS232/422/485 serial port. The product targets serial-over-IP (SoI) and serial control applications.
The WS1102 is a compactTibbo BASIC/C-programmablewirelesscontroller equipped with an RS232/422/485 serial port. The product targets serial-over-IP (SoI) and serial control applications.
This cloud-native device incorporates Wi-Fi (802.11a/b/g/n over 2.4GHz/5GHz) and Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) interfaces that introduce several new features, such as Wi-Fi auto-connects, wireless debugging,over-the-air (OTA) updates, and Transport Layer Security (TLS) support. As a vendor-agnostic product, it can communicate with Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud, Amazon Web Services (AWS), and virtually any other cloud services provider.
There are eight LEDs on the device's front: green and red main status LEDs, a yellow access point association (link) LED, and five blue LEDs, which can be used for Wi-Fi signal strength indication or other purposes. A buzzer is provided as well.
Each WS1102 is supplied with a DIN rail and wall mounting plates.
Serial-over-IP conversion is a large part of what we do, and there is anentire sectionof our website dedicated to serial converters (a.k.a. "serial device servers"). We offer an open-sourceserial-over-IP (SoI) appthat turns the WS1102 into a full-featured RS232/422/485-to-IP converter.

From Low-Code to No-Code With CODY
Low-codesoftware development is the future because no one has the time to write and debug complex applications line-by-line.
EnterCODY, our online code generator that produces working Tibbo BASIC applications from the information you enter on a few simple configuration screens. For many usage scenarios, such assensor-to-cloudapplications, CODY will output fully functional, immediately deployable WS1102 code.
CODY's magic bullet isAppBlocks. With AppBlocks, all supported features and software modules are represented by functional blocks, which you drag onto and interconnect inside a project canvas. This draw-an-application approach turns CODY into a trulyno-codedevelopment tool for many types of WS1102 applications.
Here are two short videos that show what CODY is:Part 1, Part 2.
Fast Deployment With the L.U.I.S. App
Anyone who has ever deployed a device on a target network knows that complications often come from silly little things, like the configuration of Wi-Fi parameters. You know how it goes: To set the AP name and password, the device you are dealing with must temporarily become an access point, which you then connect to from your phone, etc. On and on this goes, wasting your precious time.
Enter theLoadable User Interface System (L.U.I.S.), our wireless configuration solution for Tibbo devices.
L.U.I.S. allows you to configure compatible Tibbo devices via their BLE interface. The L.U.I.S. app (iOS,Android,web) automatically discovers nearby devices that support BLE configuration. After you select a device to work with, the app loads configuration pages from the device itself. Wi-Fi parameter configuration, IP selection, and many other settings are suddenly within easy and convenient reach!
Tibbo BASIC/C applications can be debugged via Wi-Fi(4)or serial port(5)
Supplied with an SoI app preloaded

The app allows editing of the DCB from the L.U.I.S. smartphone app (available foriOSandAndroid)
Users are free to modify the app for additional functionality

Although two independent Tibbo BASIC/C compiled binaries (apps) can be stored in the WS1102's flash memory, only one can run at a time.
Several of the WS1102's configuration parameters are stored in the DCB, which is accessible via a new integrated console. OurBLE Terminalweb app leverages the Web Bluetooth API (compatible with the Chrome, Chromium, Edge, and Opera web browsers) to connect to the WS1102's console. Configuration properties can also be read and set through Tibbo BASIC/C code.
TLS is supported on a single outgoing TCP connection.
To enable Wi-Fi debugging, you must enable autoconnect — automatic association with a designated Wi-Fi network. This can be accomplished via the integrated BLE console or in code.
The TX and RX line of the debugging UART are connected to the DTR and DSR lines of the serial port. When the serial debugging is enabled, these lines cease functioning as the DTR and DSR lines. To avoid occupying the DTR and DSR lines for debugging, use wireless debugging instead. The debug mode can be selected via the integrated BLE console or in code.
The WS1102 is compliant with the IEC/EN 62368-1 safety standard in the –40°C to +85°C range. To maintain this compliance in the field, use an external DC power source outputting 0.5A @ 9VDC ~ 18VDC (less than 15W) that is also IEC/EN 62368-1 certified and can operate in the –40°C to +85°C range.
Tested according to procedures I, II, and III of MIL-STD-810H Method 501.7 and MIL-STD-810H Method 502.7.
