Requirements

The Core Services of the Edge Compute Platform need to have been installed.

These services can be deployed by adding the "App - ECP Virtual Meter" application from the Marketplace to your own space (see Marketplace).

Thing Description

See Things documentation on how to manage Things in Studio.
