Installation and operation


Installation

The housing is intended to be installed inside or outside a building but it must be protected from vertical water spray and direct sunlight.

Casing

Flammability rating: UL94HB

Ingress protection: IP55 or IP68 48 hours @1m

Radio propagation

In order for the sensor to operate correctly, the number of obstacles should be limited in order to avoid excessive radio wave attenuation. It is also important to place the sensor as high as possible. The cable gland should be positioned on left side.

Autonomy


The information in the table below represents how long the battery can last. It is  based on the default configuration at ambient temperature (+25°C) within the optimal operating range of the sensor via a LoRaWAN network (one uplink frame), when the spreading factor used is SF12.

The disposable battery has a 3.6Ah capacity, of which 85% is used.

Video Tutorials - WATTECO

There are Two LEDs on the Toran'O AtEX zone 1 device:

ASSN:      blinking until the association with a network is done. Since release v3.5.2.5530, after 6 hours in association searching the led blinks all 1 minute.

association

CNF:     blinking in configuration mode.

To start up the device, a magnet must be placed next to the sensor for one second (behind the "ILS" sticker). The red LED blinks quickly during this step. After one second, the red LED stops blinking and the green LED blinks slowly until the association is done.

To switch off the device, repeat the same operation by placing the magnet next to the sensor for 5 seconds. After those 5 seconds, the red LED blinks 5 times slowly.

A reed switch is available under the "ILS" sticker. A magnet can be used to activate it and perform specific actions on the sensor (switch off, switch on, reassociation…). When the reed switch is activated, the red LED blinks quickly.

Configuration mode
Way to trigger itOne passage of the magnet near the reed switch or specific ZCL command
Way to stop it Another passage of the magnet or specific ZCL command
Effects on the sensorThe CONF led (red) blinks (3 sec. OFF, 3 sec. ON) and the sensor sends an uplink frame every minute.
DurationThe configuration mode lasts 10 minutes
  • A reassociation procedure can be requested if no downlink frame is received by the sensor during a given periodicity (4 days by default) or if a given number (100 by default) is reached or in case of failure (no acknowledgement received) by sending an applicative frame to the sensor or via the sensor’s IHM.

The sensor keeps the AppEUi and DevAddr configured, Confirmed/Unconfirmed configuration and all applicative configurations. However, LoRaWAN configurations (channel, data rate …) are lost.

ReAssociation Mode
Way to trigger itThree passages of the magnet near the reed switch or ZCL command from LoRaWAN cluster.
Effects on the sensorThe ASSN led (green) blinks as the “no commissioned sensor” LED is lit.
  • A factory reset is available on Watteco’s sensors. It deletes all the applicative settings saved in the flash memory (i.e. configured batches and reports will be deleted).

The sensor keeps the AppEUi and DevAddr configured. However, LoRaWAN configurations (channel, data rate…) and applicative configurations are lost.

Default configuration

A default configuration is set:

  • The device reports:
    • the counter value associated with input 1+/1- (EndPoint 0 / Cluster Binary Input / Attribute Count), input 2+/2- (EndPoint 1 / Cluster Binary Input / Attribute Count), and input 3+/3- (EndPoint 2 / Cluster Binary Input / Attribute Count) each day in standard mode.
    • the 4-20mA input each day in standard mode.
    • the two 0-5V inputs each day in standard mode.
    • the battery level each 7 days or on 100mV variation.

Every change made to the default configuration must comply with the legal duty cycle (for example, the most restrictive in the EU is 0.1%, which corresponds to approximately 1 frame per hour with SF12)
