Propane Tank Pressure Monitor

    This project will show you how to build a propane tank monitoring system using off-the-shelf sensors, the Notecard and Swan. The system measures tank weight and pressure, and synchronizes readings to Notehub for cloud reporting. Notehub Environment Variables can also be used to set weight and pressure thresholds for sending alarms and notifications from the device to cloud.

                      Having trouble connecting?

                      Try changing your Micro USB cable as some cables do not support transferring data. If that does not solve your problem, contact us at support@blues.com and we will get you set up with another tool to communicate with the Notecard.
