* Batteries are not replaceable, DO NOT ATTEMPT TO REPLEACE. Any attempt will void
the warranty, moreover will irreversibly damage the device.
** The battery life strongly depends on the working time window, set during the
configuration process, and on the environmental conditions. Estimation of the battery
life is given by the configuration software.
***IP68: maximum 24 hours of continuous submersion at 1 m depth
****Under optimal propagation conditions, the radio range depends on physical
conditions (building constructions, climatic conditions, ...) where propagation of the radio
signal can therefore vary.
Installation
The installation of the IWM-LR3 module is allowed on the GMDM-I, GMB-RP-I and GMB-I
meters only.
It is recommended to install the IWM-LR3 module away from metal objects or any
potential radio shielding, in a place protected from tampering.
Provision the network server in which you want to integrate the sensor (AppEUI) and
provide the application server with the unique DevEUI and AppKey keys. The installer has
the task of checking the propagation conditions of the radio signal during installation.
Commissioning
Make sure that you have respected the installation conditions described above and that
the module is positioned within the operating range of the LoRa gateway installed.
Remove the aluminum sticker applied on the bottom of the module and connect the
module on the meter as shown in the picture. It is necessary to pair the inductive index
of the meter beneath the inductive sensor placed on the plate of the module. With one
hand, keep the meter steady, with the other hand press then carefully the module and
turn it in a counter-clockwise direction to lock it to the meter.
To initialize the module and send joining requests to the desired network server, it is
necessary to let the inductive index of the dial rotate for +/-5 revolutions (on the GM
models, this corresponds to +/- 5 liters). Verify then that the module has joined the
network server in the next few moments.
Configuration by using Android App + NFC Device (for ABP mode or parameter
modification): to initialize the configuration process, place the NFC antenna of the
android device near the module as shown in the picture. For the complete configuration
instructions, please refer to the app manual.
Check on the reading software/web application the correct data collection and check
that no alarm is active. To avoid possible frauds on the module, it is recommended to
tighten the mounting screw supplied and apply the adhesive seal.
