Sphensor Gateway. Sphensor Gateway sends the received values to LSI LASTEM Cloud Service or to an MQTT broker, either within the company network or reachable from outside via the Internet. Sphensor Gateway communicates over the network via LAN network connection (Ethernet) or via Wi-Fi radio or 3G/4G mobile phone.

In the realization of the Sphensor sensor network it is necessary to keep in mind some limitations regar- ding sensors of the "low power" type (indicated in Errore. L'origine riferimento non è stata trovata.). In this case: LSI LASTEM SRL INSTUM_04291 Pag. 8 / 32...
Do not operate the product in presence of water or moisture. Do not operate the product in an explosive atmosphere. Lithium-ion battery inside. Replacing the battery with an incorrect type can cause risk of explosion. LSI LASTEM SRL INSTUM_04291 Pag. 9 / 32...
Sphensor Manager. 3.1 Installing the Sphensor Manager software The Sphensor Manager software is located on the MW6501 USB flash drive - LSI LASTEM products. Alterna- tively it can be downloaded from the website www.lsi-lastem.com. Run the Setup program for installation.

➢ CONNECTION TIMEOUT: connection timeout, if this time is exceeded in case of no connec- tion, the sensor will automatically restart. With 00:00:00. in case of no connection, the re- start is disabled. 12. The NETWORK tab contains the specific parameters of the radio network. LSI LASTEM SRL INSTUM_04291 Pag. 14 / 32...

Name: is the name of the measure. In Use: specifies whether or not the measurement is acquired by the sensor (Yes = acquired; No = not acquired). Rate: is the acquisition rate of the measure. LSI LASTEM SRL INSTUM_04291 Pag. 15 / 32...
User Calibration, Forced range, Validity range, Remap: these parameters are currently reser- ved for use by LSI LASTEM technicians. To access the window with the measurement parameters, double-click on the measurement. The displayed parameters are the following: ➢...
4. The ENDPOINTS tab displays the MQTT servers configured in the device. In the figure are represented two servers, one local (localhost) and one called LSI Lastem, both configured to receive the data unencrypted and to have control of Sphensor Gateway.

Sphensor Gateway or the presence of obstacles. In this case, use one or more Sphensor repeaters. Also consider that low-power sensors need to refer, in their immediate vicinity (radio range), to a LSI LASTEM SRL INSTUM_04291 Pag. 19 / 32...
M4 stud and at the rear it is fixed in position by means of an M4 nut. In case the sensor requires external power, the remaining plate positions can be used to provide power to the wall po- wer supply. LSI LASTEM SRL INSTUM_04291 Pag. 20 / 32...

Sphensor Gateway. • The sensor_type field contains the name of the measurement cell that produced the measurement and its index when there is more than one measurement cell of that type. LSI LASTEM SRL INSTUM_04291 Pag. 29 / 32...
The rssi field is the power of the radio signal; the range is -100÷0 (-100 when the signal is bad, 0 when it is good). • The battery field is the battery level; the value 255 indicates that the measurement is not available. LSI LASTEM SRL INSTUM_04291 Pag. 31 / 32...
