VAQA'O Lite sensor
Presentation
The VAQA'OLt sensor is a LoRaWAN class A sensor powered
through 2 AA battery internal slots. Usually, it is powered with 2 x
2600 mAh AA Lithium Batteries (supporting also Alkaline 1.5V).
VAQA'OLt can measure following environemental parameters:
Temperature, Hygrometry, Carbon dioxyde (CO2) and permanently
survey displacements of the whole sensor.
Installation and operation
Installation
Manual and QuickStart guide are available in our download center.
The housing should be installed inside a building, must be protected from any water spray
and must be used in environnement with less than 80% relative humidity. The product should
not be installed in direct heat source (Heater, sunlight, ...) to avoid local heating effects that
may alter a global estimation of environmental parameters in the measured room. The
product should be installed in a representative position in regard of the required
environemental parameters survey. Usualy, it should be installed between 1m50 and 2m50
from floor.

Summary of Contents for WATTECO VAQA'O Lite

  • Page 1 VAQA’OLt support.watteco.com/vaqao2/ VAQA'O Lite sensor Presentation The VAQA'OLt sensor is a LoRaWAN class A sensor powered 50-70-223-xxx : through 2 AA battery internal slots. Usually, it is powered with 2 x VAQAOLt 2600 mAh AA Lithium Batteries (supporting also Alkaline 1.5V).
  • Page 2 The product has 1 Green Led, 1 Red led, 1RGB led and two "reed switches" as human to machine interface. These elements should positioned as shown below when installing the sensor. To correctly install the sensor: Open the product from the two clips at the bottom using a small flat screwdriver. Use the base as a template and obtain horizontality using a level.
  • Page 3 Once installed, the two LEDs are visible through the bottom vertical windows and the reed switches ("ILS" marked) can be actuated like simple buttons using a magnet. Replacing batteries Batteries should be replaced with lithium-thionyl-chloride (Li-SOCI2) LR6/AA of 2600mAh each (example: SAFT LS14500). Alkaline 1.5V batteries could also be used however the life expectancy will be reduced.
  • Page 4 3 LEDs are available on VAQAOLt. 2 LEDs Green and Red are visible through the down ears of the sensor. These are the usual leds of Watteco sensors giving indication about current "Network status and running modes". One more led (RGB) is available in the front of the sensor mainly used as a "CO2 level visual indicator"...
  • Page 5 When unused the sensor should be set in storage mode (Deep sleep mode) to avoid battery consumption. By the way, notice that when sent from factory the sensor should always be in Storage mode. The table below describes the actions to be performed on the reed switch (label ILS) to disable or enable the storage mode.
  • Page 6 A factory reset, available on Watteco’s sensors, can be fired manually (see table below). It deletes all the applicative settings saved in the flash memory (i.e.: newly configured batches and reports will be replaced by the factory reporting configuration).
  • Page 7 Automatic CO2 Level indicator HMI Below the Default automatic display of current CO2 level. Excellent to Good Average to Bad Very Bad to Unhealthy (Period: 30s) (Period/2: 15s) (Period/4: 7s) Notice that VAQAOlt gives the visual indication about co2 level on its "IAQ led" according to some tunable parameters like Period or Thresholds.
  • Page 8 These functions can be actuated by starting the Calibration configuration process with 3 passes on the right ILS (reed switch) with the Magnet. When started the IAQ Led indicator will chase across the 3 colors Orange, Green, Blue during 30s. From there the device is waiting for action selection.

  • Page 15 From this revision VAQA'O sensors has got an alternate default configuration that can be activated instead of default one. In this alternate configuration Batch is not used. Beware that this configuration is more verbose on radio and will drain battery faster.
