Abstract: Cinnamon bark drying machine is one of agricultural technology to dry up the cinnamon bark efficiently. Drying machine monitoring is a system to monitor temperature and weight conditions during the drying process through a smartphone. The dryer monitoring system uses Internet of Things (IoT) technology so that the system can be monitored remotely. The proposed cinnamon bark drying machines uses Arduino Mega2560 as the main microcontroller with 4 Arduino nanoas additional microcontrollers to get star network topology and ESP8266 as a communication device. Loadcell Sensor is used as weight sensor, and DS18B20 is used as temperature sensor. There is simple Blynk application on smartphone as an IoT platform. Based on the test results it can be concluded that the cinnamon bark drying machine monitoring system using IoT technology has good performance and capabilities. It can reduce material weight down to 29,93% for the maximum temperature reached during the drying process is 55 ° C. Transmission delay from the serial monitor to Blynk IoT Platform has a poor value based on TIPHON standardization. The average delay was 1.5 seconds. However, data error rate between serial monitor and Blynk is very small. The average data error rate is 0,21%.
