1. Introduction R718PE02 is a wireless communication device for Netvox ClassA device based on LoRaWAN open protocol. It is a wireless communication device for the material level detection industry that uses LiDAR radar for single-point ranging. Based on the ToF (Time of Flight) schematic, the R718PE02 provides stable, accurate, and reliable ranging performance by optimizing the optical system and built-in algorithms.
SMS text and email (optional) ⚫ Available third-party platforms: Actility / ThingPark, TTN, MyDevices/Cayenne Note: Please visit http://www.netvox.com.tw/electric/electric_calc.html for battery life calculation and other detailed information. (1) The actual range may vary depending on the environment. (2) Battery life is determined by sensor reporting frequency and other variables.
4. Set up Instructions On/Off Insert batteries. Power on Note: User may need a screwdriver to open the battery cover. Press and hold the function key for 3 seconds until the green indicator flashes once. (1) It is recommended to turn on the device within half a year after receiving the device. If it exceeds half a year, it is recommended to turn on the device 2 to 3 hours later after installing Turn on the battery.
* When Mintime is not less than 1 hour, long press the function key to shut down the device. LiDAR Sensor R718PE02 reports the battery voltage, distance, fill level and sensor strength. The dust removal wiper will automatically wipe once when the device report cycle is reached or when the button is pressed, so please do not operate it frequently.
4. The period for the device to send data is subject to the programming configuration. The time interval between 2 reports must be the minimum time. 5. Please refer Netvox LoRaWAN Application Command document and Netvox Lora Command Resolver http://cmddoc.netvoxcloud.com/cmddoc to resolve uplink data.

Note: 1) The device only wakes up and performs data sampling according to MinTime Interval. When it is on sleeping mode, it does not collect data. 2) The data collected is compared with the last data reported. If the data variation is greater than the ReportableChange value, the device reports according to MinTime interval.
6. Applications Barn The device is installed on the top of the barn, and the device is powered on after fixing. It collects the distance between the material level and the sensor, and the percentage of the material level in the barn at regular intervals. H: The height of the barn (this value can be set with the payload command;...
7. Installation 7.1 Precautions for sensor use 1. Please use M2.5 round head screws for installation. 2. Please remove the screen protector and keep the lens clean or it may cause false results. The LiDAR radar starts from the surface of the lens (that is Distance = 0m). 3.
7.2 Maintenance and Cleaning ⚫ Before/after turning on the device, please check the exposed lens and check whether the optical components are dirty. ⚫ The optical components should be cleaned regularly if the device was placed and operated in a harsh environment. ⚫...
9. Information about Battery Passivation Many of Netvox devices are powered by 3.6V ER14505 Li-SOCl2 (lithium-thionyl chloride) batteries that offer many advantages including low self-discharge rate and high energy density. However, primary lithium batteries like Li-SOCl2 batteries will form a passivation layer as a reaction between the lithium anode and thionyl chloride if they are in storage for a long time or if the storage temperature is too high.
10. Important Maintenance Instructions Kindly pay attention to the following in order to achieve the best maintenance of the product: Keep the device dry. Rain, moisture, or any liquid might contain minerals and thus corrode electronic circuits. If the device gets wet, please dry it completely.
