Connecting two BS2 via internet
Hello.
Is this possible?· I want to have one BS2 in one location (say Michigan) and another BS2 in another location (say Ohio).· I want one BS2 to communicate to other BS2 and share each other's data.· Also, one BS2 needs to tell other BS2 to turn on certain loads.
How do I do this?· Get 2 PINKs and connect BS2 to PINK?
Is there an example (Nuts & Volts) that shows the basics of how to do something like this?
Thanks much.

·· There is no specific example of doing what you’re asking, however it would be possible to send UDP messages between the two modules over the internet.· You could send your information that way.· I would employ some sort of checksum/verification scheme since there is otherwise no way to know if the recipient actually received the data or if it was intact (not corrupted).· I hope this helps.· Take care.

I think you can do this with StampPlot Pro, and the pricing is very reasonable. You can also do realtime visual display of your info, which is really cool.
