3、Advantage VS Raspberry Pi

Wireless Connectivity: The Raspberry Pi does not have any built-in wireless module. It needs to plug in a wireless dongle to support various wireless protocols. Users need to buy accessories, which causes trouble for users. In contrast to Raspberry Pi, DSGW-210 has built-in both Zigbee 3.0 module and Z-Wave Module. In addition to these, it also supports custom protocols integration such as BLE 5.0, LTE CAT1, and Wi-Fi 2.4/5G.

Direct To Market(DTM): Compared with more development boards, DSGW-210 has been mass-produced. It has a beautiful shell, mature hardware design, and has been verified by the market.

Battery Backup: A notable feature of the DSGA-210 is that it comes with a built-in battery power option so that in the event of a power failure the system will continue to run, unlike Raspberry Pi.

Storage: Raspberry Pi is just using USB or SD Cards. They will work just fine, but it is no comparison to HDD or eMMC speeds. Also, no more SD card failures.

Modular design: Each wireless module adopts a modular design, and users can choose the best configuration to meet their needs, making the cost performance higher.

Compliance: DSGW-210 has got the IC, FAC, WPC, KC, NTC, RCM, SRRC certifications, Users do not need to spend the cost and time for certifications.

6、How to install OpenHAB

The Open Home Automation Bus as the center of your smart home is a free and open-source software designed for home automation. OpenHAB has been proposed in 2010 by Kai Kreuzer. It is developed based on the Eclipse SmartHome framework using Java. The user can extend the OpenHAB by installing the new Add-ons. The reason is that the OpenHAB is modular software. The following instruction describes how to install and set up OpenHAB in DSGW-210. (Refer to OpenHAB Home Automation Gateway for details)

Step 1. Adding the openHAB repository key to your package manager:

				
					wget -qO - 'https://openhab.jfrog.io/artifactory/api/gpg/key/public' | sudo apt-key add -
				
			

Step 2. Then, you can choose between, Official (Stable), Beta, or Snapshot builds: Add the openHAB Stable Repository to your systems apt sources list:

				
					echo 'deb https://openhab.jfrog.io/artifactory/openhab-linuxpkg stable main' | sudo tee
				
			
Add the openHAB Beta Repository to your systems apt sources list:
				
					echo 'deb https://openhab.jfrog.io/artifactory/openhab-linuxpkg stable main' | sudo tee
				
			
The snapshot repository is hosted in openHAB’s JFrog Artifactory instance (opens new window). To use it, add the openHAB Unstable Repository to your systems apt sources
				
					echo 'deb https://openhab.jfrog.io/artifactory/openhab-linuxpkg stable main' | sudo tee
				
			

Step 3. Resynchronize the package index and install the openHAB with the following command

				
					sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install openHAB
				
			

Step 4. If everything went well, you can start openHAB and register it to be

				
					sudo /etc/init.d/openhab start
sudo /etc/init.d/openhab status
sudo update-rc.d openhab defaults
				
			

Step 5. You should be able to reach the openHAB Dashboard at http://openhabdevice:8080 after 15 minutes later.
