Software Sample sketch code:
Please download sample code from https://osoyoo.com/driver/wifi-iot/osoyoo-mqtt.zip

Open the code with Arduino IDE, you  need replace line 10,11 with your own WIFI SSID and password.

mqtt_server variable in Line 12 is the MQTT server you need to connect. We use free MQTT server “broker.mqttdashboard.com”, you can set this variable to your own MQTT broker if you like.

After running the code, the sketch code will send “Hello World ****” (**** is the time stamp)  to MQTT server under topic “OSOYO-Topic” (defined in line 1117) every 2 seconds.

You can use any MQTT client to connect to broker.mqttdashboard.com and subscribe topic “OSOYO-Topic” and get the message from our sample program.

We use free online MQTT client http://www.hivemq.com/demos/websocket-client/ and see the result as following:
