FCC ID: 2AT8M-TM-V3X0 BEAM-TM

Setting up your Tiltmeter Node (BEAM-TM) 

This article will help you set up your Tiltmeter Node to work with the Ackcio Beam 

Gateway. 

Before you get started 

You will need to prepare the following items before commissioning your nodes. 

● A Gateway with its Date and Radio settings configured 

● A project created on that Gateway 

● The BEAM-TM Node to be commissioned 

● Batteries for your Nodes 

○ Battery specifications 

■ Size: D-type 

■ Voltage: 3.6V 

■ Capacity: 19AH 

■ Type: Li-SOCl2 (Lithium Thionyl Chloride) 

● An Android device 

● The Ackcio Nimbus application for Android (Available on the Play store​ ​here​) 

● An OTG adapter and Micro USB cable (provided by Ackcio) 

Installing your Node 

The Nodes can be directly affixed to a flat surface using M4 screws. For more 

sophisticated mounting scenarios, we would recommend using the node bracket. 

The node bracket 

is used to easily mount the node on flat surfaces, pipes and other more complicated 

settings. Please follow the instructions below to use the node bracket: 

1. Fix the node to the bracket using M4 screws and nuts as shown below. 

2. Use four screws and nuts to attach the node to the bracket 

3. Connect the SMA antenna to the bulkhead. Once the mounting is complete, the 

node should appear as shown below. 

Connecting your Android device to your Node 

1. Connect the Node to your Android device using the USB cable. Ensure that your 

OTG adapter is connected to your Android device as per the image below: 

2. Open the Ackcio Nimbus application on your Android device and tap the ​Start 

button. This will bring you to the Project List page. 

3. Tap on your project to select it. 

4. Press the ​Reset​ button on the Node. This will put the node into ​Pairing​ mode. 

5. Within 10 seconds of the previous step, tap the ​Pair Node​ button on the Ackcio 

Nimbus application. Upon successful pairing with the node, you will enter the Node 

Setup page. At this point, the SYS LED on the node should stop blinking and turn 

solid. 

Setting up your Node 

1. On the Node Setup page in the Ackcio Nimbus application, tap on the ​Pen​ icon 

next to Node Name. Enter a name for your node and hit ​Save​. 

2. Tap on the ​Pen​ icon next to Sampling Rate, scroll to your desired sampling rate, 

and hit ​Save​. 

3. Tap on the ​Setup Sensor​ button to enter the Sensor Setup page. 

4. On the Sensor Setup page, tap on Sensor 1. 

5. Tap the ​Save Sensor​ button. The Node will then take a reading from its sensor. The 

SENS LED on the node should start blinking at this stage. 

6. To get another test reading, you can tap the Refresh icon. Otherwise, you can then 

tap the ​Start Monitoring​ button to finish commissioning the node. You should see 

the SYS LED start blinking intermittently again after this step. 

Syncing your Node settings with the Gateway 

1. Once you've completed commissioning all your Nodes, connect your Android 

device to the Gateway's Wi-fi network.  

2. Enter the ​Setup Project​ page on your Ackcio Nimbus application. 

3. Tap the ​Project Sync​ button to store all your Nodes' configuration settings on the 

Gateway. 

4. Your node will then be commissioned and attempt to connect to the Gateway's 

network, indicated by the SYS LED on the Node blinking. 

5. Once the Node has successfully joined the network, you should see the SYS LED 

stop blinking. The Node will then start taking readings and sending that data to the 

Gateway at the scheduled sampling intervals.
