ABSTRACT
This article approaches the development of a dashboard that allows the control and monitoring of the luminaires at the TecNM-Instituto Tecnológico de Saltillo, for this purpose, devices with LoRaWAN technology were used with project-feasible characteristics, such as acquisition of electrical information and the consumption of the luminaires. These devices were registered on The Things Stack, a network server that manages LoRaWAN devices and gateways. In addition, it provides an MQTT server, a protocol used to send commands or downlinks to devices. Through these commands it was possible to control the operation of the luminaires, as well as requesting information about them. The Node-RED development tool was used, within which JavaScript was used, as well as the differentnodes provided by this tool, for the development of the dashboard and its functionality. The InfluxDB database was used to store the information obtained from devices; this information was used in the Grafana software, where graphics were generated to allow the user, more visual, to interpret the data. These three pieces of software were placed on a local server using Docker containers.
