PrivateEyePi is a cloud based alarm and monitoring solution for Raspberry Pi or Orange Pi.

What you will need

Any model Raspberry Pi with Python 2/3 and PIP installed
IoT Gateway for Raspberry Pi or Flex RF Module
Any wireless sensor

What you need to know beforehand:

How to operate a Raspberry Pi or Orange Pi Zero V2
You have already set up your IoT Gateway and tested your sensor
Some Python programming knowledge is preferable but not mandatory as we provide you with the source code and instruction on how to run it

Installation

Below are the minimal steps to install PrivateEyePi and run the PrivateEyePi interface for the RF Sensors. More information can be found on the website (projects.privateeyepi.com)

Note: Follow this link to setup an Orange Pi Zero 2 to run PEP Applications.

Important: The current Application downloads are for Python 3, they also include the older Python 2 for reference.

If you have not already installed PrivateEyePi, do so as follows:

Open a command prompt on the Raspberry Pi and create a directory for PrivateEyePi:

E.g.
```
 cd /home/pi
 mkdir pep
 cd pep

 wget -N www.privateeyepi.com/downloads/install.sh
```
Create an account on PrivateEyePi The following steps must be completed on a web browser:
- Go to www.privateeyepi.com website
- Click on the “New User” link
- Type in the details and click the “Update” button
- From the User menu option create a new token and copy it to your clipboard

Copy the token to the globals.py file

 cd /home/pi/pep
 sudo nano globals.py

 Look for token="" and paste the token in between the braces.

 Save using Ctrl-x followed by 'y'

Run rfsensor.py
```
python rfsensor.py
```
