Start on local mocks (without a GPS device or remote kinisi server):

$ npm install
$ export NODE_ENV=mock
$ node kinisi-agent.js

Raspberry Pi:

Proof-of-Concept (POC) Setup: a full POC deployment procedure.

Upgrade procedures: for moving from one POC version to another.

Quick Tips on Usage:

LED Indicators:

GPS Data Indicators - On the GPS dongle/unit, a blinking red LED indicates a signal lock with one or more satellites, while a solid red indicates there is no lock. Note that a satellite lock by the GPS unit does not necessarily indicate that the Kinisi device/app is properly retrieving the GPS data from the dongle. The green light will be on when there is GPS data that is being saved to the device (locally). If it goes dark, then it doesn't have anything to save (no GPS lock).
