Running our application
It’s now time for the moment we have been building toward over the last few chapters: testing our entire IoT alarm system. With the IoT alarm dashboard built, our IoT alarm system is complete:
Figure 8.13 – Completed IoT alarm system
We started by building the IoT alarm module (see E in Figure 8.13) in Chapter 6, before proceeding to build IoT buttons (see A and D in Figure 8.13) in Chapter 7. In this chapter, we used the Raspberry Pi 5 with an active buzzer (see B and C in Figure 8.13), a Raspberry Pi 7-inch screen and case (see B in Figure 8.13), a keyboard (see F in Figure 8.13), and a mouse (see G in Figure 8.13) to build the IoT alarm dashboard.
To test the IoT alarm dashboard, we simply need to arm the IoT alarm module and activate it by moving an object in front of its PIR sensor. To do so, follow these steps:
- To arm the IoT alarm module, using our mouse, we type the four-digit PIN code (1234) into...
