Aqua-Scope Water
Monitor LoRaWAN
SKU: AQSLWE01
Version: 1.0.4
Product Description
The Aqua-Scope Water Monitor records all consumption of water in the home and it detects
damaging water leakages. To achieve this, the device applies advanced signal processing analyzing
water pressure waves traveling inside the pipes of the house water system.
A single sensor can monitor the whole home or apartment and communicates measured values and
alarms to a LoRaWAN network.
The current version of the Water Monitor is approved for single-family homes and multi-family homes
with one single water meter per apartment. 'Clinical Trials' are ongoing for installations in multi-
apartment homes with more than one water meter per apartment.
Installation Requirements
The Aqua-Scope Water Monitor watches the water pressure and water pressure waves (water noise) of
the home water installation system. The Aqua-Scope water microphone must be connected to the pipe
system at one single point in the home. Ideal connection points are edge valves located below sinks or
beside toilets. Alternatives are 1/4 inch revision openings on pressure reduction valves, shut off vales or
other installation gear. It is recommended to find a place as low in the home as possible (ideally
basement or first floor) but it is important to find a place 'after' the pressure valve (The main shut off
valve is typically positioned before the PRV and hence the water microphone shall not be installed on

Operating the device requires sufficient LoRaWAN coverage from your LoRaWAN provider of choice. Your LoRaWAN service must register the new device before the OTAA operation. LoRaWAN OTAA requires three device-specific keys for this process: Copyright © 2021 Aqua-Scope Technologies, Sakala tn 7-2, 10141 Tallinn, Estonia, www.aqua- scope.com... -

‚https://io.aqua-scope.com/lora/lora.zip‘ allows downloading the scripts for change, inspection and further use on own server and integrate the data into your own application. Please note that the mentioned scripts can only be used for devices from Aqua-Scope. Device EUIs from other manufacturers will not be processed. - Page 4 Exceeding these thresholds will cause a Usage-Alarm. Additional protection is provided by the external wired water contact sensor, connected to one of the two sockets of the Aqua-Scope. This will recognize e.g. spillovers or other loss of water. A Flood-Alarm is sent out in this case.

The system is permanently monitoring the water to detect pattern indicating a jamming toilet flap. In this case a Jamming-Alarm is issued. If the water pressure is too high the pipes may be damaged in the home. The Aqua-Scope will determine automatically the highest acceptable pressure and report an Overpressure-Alarm if this threshold is exceeded. -

- Page 8 The Initial calibration is required to find critical parameters for the detection of water flow. Prior to the completion of the initial calibration most of the functions of the Aqua-Scope monitor are disabled. The UI will trigger starting the calibration process sending a downstream command 0x09 with status = 2. The device will prepare for the calibration and, once ready, answers with status = 3.
