LION will void the user’s authority to operate the equipment. 1.3 Compliance and conformity a. Europe HIKOB SAS declares that the HIKOB LION product is in accordance with stipulations of the RED 2014/53/UE, CEM 2014/30/UE and 2014/35/UE directives. Electromagnetic compatibility Japan The LION product is certified to be compliant with Japan Radio Law - Article 2 paragraph 1 Item 19.
2. General description 2.1 HIKOB Wireless sensor network acquisition system The LION is one of the elements that constitutes the HIKOB wireless sensor radio network. This system is a set of wireless sensors doing multi-point distributed measures in various domains. These sensors radio transmit their acquired data to the GATEWAY, possibly via LION routers, depending on environment constraints for radio transmission.
• At start-up: the LED lit 2s continuously 4 seconds after start-up, • Connected to the HIKOB network: 1 beep every 2 s, • In search of a HIKOB network: 2 beeps every 2 seconds, • With the battery, low (not connected to the network and not seeking to connect): 3...
3.2.2 Maintenance Frequency band 13.56MHz Protocol Type of receiver Passive Usage Reserved for HIKOB maintenance Radio range given for a connection to a WISECOW sensor, these sensor types are installed in road pavement, this alters radio transmission quality Page 8...
4. Installation 4.1 Overall methodology Installing an HIKOB radio network requires a good topology analysis of your site to maximize radio transmission quality by optimizing positions and numbers of HIKOB nodes in the network. A preliminary study done with your vendor determines elements that will constitute your HIKOB radio network acquisition.
Installation guide INSTALL_LION-V6 2019/01 Edition 4.2 LION Mounting procedure The LION is delivered ready to be installed, batteries are charged, so it is useable right away. As its emplacement is already determined by the site pre-study, the following sections explain the mounting procedure itself, and recommendations for final adjustments.
From your elevated spot, you position the LION to have a good radio coverage and enough radiation on its solar panel: – The radio antenna is located right behind the brand sign HIKOB engraved on the top transparent lid. The radiation pattern are 2 flattened lobes in the orthogonal direction of the solar panel plane: this determines the zone where emissions and receptions will be the most effective, see figure.

LION is designed to run with 1 hour of sunshine a day, and is autonomous 2 months in total darkness. Consider as well specific radiation patterns of the sensors involved in your HIKOB network, that is, WISECOW have conic ones. So, in that case, orient the antenna towards the ground.
