Input node for the Ti SensorTag

The UUID field is the mac address of the sensor tag, this is optional can be used to bind to a specific SensorTag if you have more than one active in range at the same time. (note you can only have one SensorTag per node-red instance at the moment)

The topic setting is a prefix that will be pre-pended to name of the sensor that creates the reading. e.g. sensorTag/temperature

+

NOTE: Only 1 sensorTag can be read from at a time, + if you add more than one to the canvas then only the first to connect + will work.
