Connecting to Telematics Guru over Hiber Mission Control

Hiber provides the world’s first infrastructure-independent global LPWAN for high-density LPWAN sensor setups, as well as time-sensitive applications that require real-time monitoring in rural areas.

Hiber provides an end to end solution for asset tracking, cattle tracking and bulk storage monitoring applications. This is achieved by combining the Hiber Via satellite gateway and Hiber Mission Control, with Digital Matter devices and Telematics Guru.

Hiberband Via gateway creates a private LoRaWAN network, without having to rely on local infrastructure for power and connectivity. The Via gateway can be powered by renewable energy sources such as solar, wind or water, and connectivity can be provided through satellite. This allows you to install the Via gateway anywhere, and connect up to 500 LoRa devices simultaneously. Data form the Hiberband Via gateway is synchronised automatically with Hiber Mission Control, and can be viewed in Telematics Guru.

Hiber connect anything, anywhere to anyone.

5. Modems (Devices)

On Hiber Mission Control, your devices can be seen under Modems. These are automatically created after provisioning your devices on the Hiberband Via gateway.

6. Add a Tag

Tags are used in Hiber Mission Control to organise device groups and assign integrations. Navigate to modems, select a modem (device) or several devices and select “Edit tag”. You can create a new tag by clicking on “+”. 

7. Create a Webhook

Browse to Developer Tools and select “Create Webhook”.

Based on which regional server your partner account is hosted, you will need to use the related URL for the endpoint. The URL also dictates which device type you have. You will need to input oyster, yabby, G62 or guppy depending on the device type. The username should be obtained from Telematics Guru. TG support will provide these details. This username will replace “xxx”

The Authorization Field noted as Secret should be set using a special HMAC key obtained from Telematics Guru. TG support will provide these details. 

Click on “Filter by Modem & Tags” and select the same tag created for that specific device type. Multiple devices are tagged with a device type in Mission Control, and the tag is associated with a webhook.
