(Classic) How to get into Node-RED
- Katarzyna Stodolny
- Joanna Kozakiewicz
Node-RED is an advanced engine for creating E2D logic. Use this tool to program multiple functionalities within the E2D system. Programming is based on the graphical language and uses special system blocks called nodes. To create a working program, you need to link nodes and this will result in programming the desired actions.
Instructions:
Select Logic in the Vertex graphic user interface (GUI).
2. In the Node-RED login panel, log in using the admin username and password.
Default credentials are:
username: admin
password: admin1234
3. You see now the main screen of the Node-RED. Have a look at each element of the UI.
