LoRaWAN Device
The LoRaWAN network allows the SensorNode device to communicate over long range and have long battery life. The SensorNode supports LoRaWAN all global regions across 866-928MHz:
India 865
Europe 868
ANZ 915
US 915
Korea 920
Asia 923
Internal Antenna
The internal ISM band antenna provides for convenient installation and reliability.
Low profile, compact, rugged IP67 rated housing.
The SensorNode comes in an IP67 rated housing (waterproof) that is UV stable and is large enough to accomodate the PCB, batteries and wiring.
Dimensions: 130mm x 70mm x 33mm
Operating Temperature
-20°C to +60°C
For operation in extreme temperatures the device must be fitted with Lithium batteries
Power (4-6V)
The SensorNode is ultra-low power and is designed to run off a set of 3 x 1.5V Alkaline or Lithium batteries. The off the shelf batteries are low cost and readily available.
It can also be powered by a USB 5V wall socket if permanently installed in a location with power.
GPS
The optional GPS module allows the SensorNode to periodically update its location and time. This is very handy to know the exact position of your sensors, and to obtain an accurate time update.
I2C Interface
I2C (inter-IC communications) is an interface commonly used in sensor modules. This allows the SensorNode to talk to a wide range of sensors including temperature, humidity, vibration and CO2 gas sensors, as well as numerous others.
Digital Inputs
2 x digital inputs with pulse counting capability
Analogue Inputs
2 x Analogue inputs reading 0V to 30V with auto-ranging
Built-in battery voltage monitoring
3.3V Switched Power
Used to control the 3.3V power to external sensors and peripherals. Load limited and short circuit protected.
Configuration
Device configuration is done via USB config cable for firmware updates and parameters. Future firmware will implement over-the-air (OTA) parameter updates via LoRaWAN downlink messages.
Status LED
For convenient visual feedback
