Tree, Electricity Tower, Telecom Tower, Bridges... The Tilt sensor utilizes the combination of an
advanced Accelerometer and Gyro meter to deliver high accuracy and stable measurement of the Tilt angle of 03 axis
X, Y, and Z. With Ultra-low Power design and smart firmware allows the sensor can last up to 10 years with 02 x AA-
type battery (depends on configuration). The sensor will transmit data in kilo-meters distance to the LoRaWAN
gateway, any brand on the market.

1.1.2 When does the device send uplink messages?
The device will send uplink messages in the following cases:
Case 1: After power-up in the 60s, the device will send the first message called START_UP. The payload will tell
the user the HW version, FW version, and current configuration of the device;
Case 2: Then, in every interval time (pre-configured), for example, 10 minutes, it will send the message called
CYCLIC_DATA. The payload will tell the user the following data like measured values, battery level, alarm status...
To change the cycle of data sending, you can change the value of the parameter: CYCLIC_DATA_PERIOD (default
is 600 seconds).
Case 3: During commissioning, testing, or calibration sensor, the user can force the device to send the uplink
message to get the data immediately. This message is called FORCE_DATA. The payload will provide data like
raw measured value, scaled measured values, battery level, alarm status... It can be forced by applying the
magnet key on the reed switch in 1s;
Case 4: If users want to change the configuration immediately, they don't need to wait until the next cyclic data
sending message, instead they can force the device to send a special uplink message so that the device can get
the new downlink message. This uplink message is named PARAMETERS_UPDATE. It can be forced by applying
the magnet key in more than 5s.
1.1.3 The important configuration parameters
The sensor was pre-configured at the factory with default values for configuration parameters that meet most use
cases. However, depending on the specific use case, the customer can adjust those parameters. Please refer to
section 3.2
for more details.
1.1.4 What kind of battery is used for this sensor?
The sensor is powered by 2 x AA 1.5V batteries for many years of operation. We recommend using Energizer L91
battery which is very popular and high performance. This battery has a capacity of up to 3500mAh with a working
temperature range from -40 to +60 oC. The instruction for installing the batteries is in

1.2 What's in the package?
The package includes:
01 x Main device
01 x Magnet key
01 x Wall mounting bracket and screws
1.3 Quick Test for LoRaWAN Sensor
With the default configuration, the device can be connected quickly to the Network Server by the following steps.
Step 1: Prepare the values of communication settings:
