This device can be linked with digital level sensors and pressure transmitters with the KELLER “D” and “X” low voltage With its wide range of water level sensors and pressure transmitters, KELLER can offer the right product lines.
The range of communication is around 2km in dense urban area, up to 15km in the rural areas and is influenced by the position of the ADT1 and of the gateway, if the gateway is mounted in an high place the cover will be major than if is mounted in a low place.
ADT1 Tube At just 43 mm in diameter, the cylindrical design of the ADT1 can simply be placed into the top of a two-inch-wide sounding tube standard in the groundwater measuring industry. It can be installed in a matter of seconds. The housing is designed to withstand condensation and temporary flooding.
To close the unit, push with two fingers against the top of the housing/piston until it stops. Be sure that that the piston is completely inserted. Keep dry before opening and closing. To close the ADT1 Box you just squeeze the screws to- gether and make a quarter turn.
The cable gland is required to connect a level sensor. Feed the sensor cable through the cable gland and connect the cable ends to the corresponding terminal strip. The ADT1 tube has a nut with the wrench width 15 to provide a counter torque.
Locking unit (Tube only) The locking unit for the ADT1 Tube with antenna cover is available in size from 2 up to 6 inches. The sealed antenna can be covered by a lockable protective cap made of robust plastic. This protects the data logger against theft and damage by people or wild animals when level measurements are being taken in the open countryside.
Connection Terminal for the Sensors The ADT1 offers the possibility to connect a low cost I C, or a more precise RS485 Sensor of KELLER. The pin assignment of the ADT1 is shown as follow: 3.9.1 Connection for X-Line (RS485-Interface) “low voltage” type only Connect the black wire to the +3.5V supply voltage and...
After a random delay of 0 … 6 seconds, the ADT1 sends the measurements. If the device has not joined the LoRaWAN® network yet, it will try to join until it succeeds (maximum 3 attempts per transmission). Afterwards, it will transmit the data.
Battery lifetime estimation The value displayed in the “ADT1 Configuration” and the “KOLIBRI Cloud“ is the battery capacity calculated by the ADT1 as a percentage of remaining capacity. It is recommendable to change the battery if the value is less than 20%. Once the battery has been changed the value is once again shown as 99%.
All measured values are stored in the ADT1’s EEPROM. The memory is organized as a circular memory. This means that always the latest data is available whilst the oldest data is overwritten.

6.1.8 LoRaWAN Settings The parameters required for transmission can be changed in the LoRa settings. Number Description Explanation / Function Activation Method LoRaWAN offers two methods of device activation: OTAA (Over The Air) and ABP (Activation by Personalization). OTAA is the preferred method to join any LoRaWAN network. Depending on the activation method selected, the input fields are activated.
Adaptive Data Rate (ADR) is a mechanism for optimizing data rates, airtime and energy consumption in the network. ADR should be enabled for static devices, like the ADT1. To determine the optimal data rate, the network needs some measurements (uplink messages). The network calculate the so-called “margin”, which is used to determine how much the network can increase the data rate or lower the...
“The Things Network“. TTN is a contributor member of the LoRa Alliance and provide a set of open tools and a global, open network to connect things. This means the ADT1 is ready to use without any configuration changes. Nevertheless the ADT1 can be easily reconfigured through the USB interface to other network servers like Actility, Loriot etc.
