The Smart Room Sensor is ideal for monitoring and reporting temperature, humidity, light, shock and open/closed doors and windows in an indoor environment. Additional sensing features such as leak and motion detection, as well as counting pulses from an external device, are also supported with the appropriate Room Sensor model. Table 1-1 presents the available Smart Room Sensor models, regional variants, and corresponding LoRa channel plan [1]. Table 1-2 presents the features available in the two functional variants (Base and PIR).

Details on the transducer range and accuracy are listed in Table 1-3. Note that because the transducer element is located inside the Sensor housing sense response time will not be immediate. An opening in the top cover surface directly over the transducer is designed to allow ambient air to contact the transducer. Response time can be reduced by forcing air to move over the Sensor in the region of the transducer opening. MCU temperature is also reported. This is a less accurate temperature measurement using a transducer located in the Room Sensor microprocessor. The Sensor can be configured to report temperature and RH values or to report alarms based on a customer configured normal operating window. High and low alarm points can be set individually for temperature, humidity and MCU temperature. The sample rate for checking the transducers is user configurable with different sample rates settable if the measured value is inside or outside the normal operating window. 1.3.2 Acceleration Transducer The Acceleration sensing is provided by an integrated 6-axis accelerometer, which can be disabled to conserve battery life. The Room Sensor supports two independent interrupt-based accelerometer events with configurable thresholds: acceleration event and impact alarm event. The acceleration event is based on exceeding an acceleration threshold. The accelerometer is disabled for a configurable debounce time after an acceleration event such that there will not be multiple reports for a single event. The impact alarm event is raised when an impact alarm threshold is exceeded for a configurable number of times within a configurable period. The impact alarm is cleared after a grace period of no impact alarms. Both acceleration and impact alarm functions can be independently disabled or enabled. LoRa IoT Smart Room Sensor User Guide TEKTELIC Communications Inc. T0006338_UG Version 1.2 Page 11 of 27 Accelerometer readings can be in the form of the X-Y-Z acceleration vector or the magnitude of such vector, and can be reported periodically. The X, Y, and Z axes can be independently disabled or enabled. The output value for a disabled axis is zero. The rate at which acceleration is sampled is configurable to 1 Hz, 10 Hz, 25 Hz, 50 Hz, 100 Hz, 200 Hz, or 400 Hz. Higher sample rates allow the detection of shorter acceleration events at the cost of shorter battery life. This is an important consideration when configuring the acceleration and impact alarm functions. The default sample rate is 1 Hz. 1.3.3 Ambient Light Transducer The Smart Room Sensor models contain an ambient light sensor. Light is measured through a light pipe located on the top surface of the Sensor. The Sensor can report both the light intensity (periodically) and the light status (dark or bright) based on a configurable light threshold. The transducer is sensitive to human visible light with a peak sensitivity at 550 nm. The approximate light intensity sensing range is 5 lux to 1000 lux. The light threshold is customer settable over the range of 1 to 63. If the light status is dark and a light intensity greater than the set point is detected, or if the light status is bright and a light intensity smaller than the threshold is detected, an event is reported. The event-based reporting can be disabled or enabled. The customer needs to test their application for the appropriate trigger point. The sample rate is also customer settable with higher sample rates increasing battery consumption. 1.3.4 Motion Detection (PIR) Transducer The Room Sensor PIR model contains a Motion Detector. The Motion Detection Transducer contains PIR elements and is configured to sense human motion within its field of view (FoV). The transducer has ceiling-mount and wall-mount Fresnel lens options. Combined with the ceiling-mount lens, the sense range for a ceiling height of 2.7 m is a rectangular area of 5 m x 4 m. Figure 1-4 and Figure 1-4 show the (theoretical) sense pattern for the ceiling-mount and wall-mount lenses2. The rectangular boxes inside the pattern shown in Figure 1-4 appear in pairs and represent sensor element beams (the pattern shown correspond to a dual-element 2 This is the theoretical maximum sense range as claimed by the transducer manufacturer. The sense range is determined as the projection of the transducer FoV on the ground, and therefore, should not be interpreted as the coverage area where the sensor can detect moving people. In general, due to the conical nature of the transducer FoV, people need to be closer to the sensor to be detected. The amount of IR radiation from a moving person, which is also impacted by the persons clothing or type of skin cover, also plays an important role at determining the detection range. In a test performed at the TEKTELIC lab, the sensor was mounted on the ceiling with a height of 2.67 m. The coverage area for a person moving around with business casual clothing was obtained as an area of about 5 m x 4 m. This corresponds to X-angle and Y-angle being approximately 86 and 74. In another test, the Z-
range with the wall-mount lens for a walking person within the center of the FoV was measured to be about 4 m. LoRa IoT Smart Room Sensor User Guide TEKTELIC Communications Inc. T0006338_UG Version 1.2 Page 12 of 27 PIR transducer). To be most effective at detecting motion, the subject must move across sensor element beams. The Room Sensor should be mounted so that the subjects move across its FoV and not towards or away from the Sensor. The sense pattern alignment to the Room Sensor body for the ceiling-mount lens is shown in Figure 1-5. The X and Y ranges shown in Figure 1-5 are for a ceiling height of 2.7 m. Note: Avoid exposing the PIR lens to strong UV light such as direct sunlight. Do not paint the surface of the lens or attempt to clean it. Any deformation of the lens will distort the sense pattern.

LoRa IoT Smart Room Sensor User Guide TEKTELIC Communications Inc. T0006338_UG Version 1.2 Page 14 of 27 To conserve battery usage, the Room Sensor only reports motion when it is first detected and when motion has not been detected for a configurable grace period. See Section 3.3.7 in the Room Sensor Technical Reference Manual [2] for a detailed description of how the motion function is configured. 1.3.5 Magnetic Switch All Room Sensor models contain a reed magnetic switch. The location of the switch is shown in Figure 1-2. The Room Sensor can be configured to activate based on the state of this switch and to report after a customer settable count of switch events. A customer supplied magnet is required to activate the switch. To activate the switch, a magnetic field of about 10 gauss (1 milli-tesla) must be applied to the edge of Sensor. Standex-
Meder M4, M5 or M13 magnets are suggested but any magnet of sufficient strength can be used. Stronger magnets are required as the distance between the magnet and sensor increases. The customer must test their selected magnet in their application to verify functionality. The switch function can be configured to sense open to close events, close to open events or both types of events. For example, if the Sensor is being used for sensing access to a door and is set to read both event types, it will record an event each time the door is opened and each time it is closed. The reporting of these events be set by the customer to report after a number of events has occurred. If it is set to 0, no events are reported. If it is set to 1, it reports after each event. If it is set to , it will report after events. This setting has a range of ( =) 0 to 65535 events. 1.3.6 External Connection The Room Sensor Base model contains an External Connector, which has two modes, digital and analog. In the digital mode, the internal, control, and reporting interfaces of the External Connector are similar to, but independent from, the Magnetic Switch in the Base model. See Section 1.3.5 for a description of the event function configuration and reporting count feature, which are similar to those of External Connector. In the digital mode, the External Connector electrical interface is designed to be connected to an open-drain output; however, the signal line can also be driven with digital signals at 1.8 V logic levels. In the analog mode, the External Connector is connected to a 10-k thermistor (recommended CWF3AA103G3380 and NTCAIMME3) for remote temperature sense in the range of -40C to 85C. The Sensor in this mode of the External Connectors report voltages, which can then be converted to temperatures. The conversion formula for CWF3AA103G3380 is LoRa IoT Smart Room Sensor User Guide TEKTELIC Communications Inc. T0006338_UG Version 1.2 Page 15 of 27

The Room Sensor is not supplied with an external connection jumper cable. The link in Table 1-4 is a suggested cable. It is the customer's responsibility to modify the cable harness for their application. The connection cable MUST be routed through a provided cable clip and the cable length should NOT exceed 3 meters. Do not connect to an outdoor device. See Section 2.6 for the connector pin assignment and cable installation. Table 1-4: Smart Room Sensor Interface Connector Types Interface Sensor Connector Mating Jumper Cable (300mm) External Connector JST B2B-ZR(LF)(SN) JST A02ZR02ZR28H305B 1.3.7 Moisture Detection Transducer The Room Sensor Base model contains a Moisture Detector. The Moisture Detection Transducer is built into the bottom surface of the Base model housing (screw side). The transducer senses changes in capacitance at the bottom surface of the Sensor housing in the presence of moisture. In other words, the moisture is detected at 0 mm range from the bottom surface (the bottom surface should get moist). This transducer is best suited to sensing the presence of water. The transducer is sensitive materials in the sensing region so the trigger set point for reporting the presence of water must be calibrated for each application. This transducer can also be used to sense liquids other than water or skin. The customer must evaluate each application and configure the trigger point as required. A calibration command can be sent to the Sensor to set a "dry" condition. The alarm point can also be set directly as a value. Sample period for moisture detection can be set to one of 4 values: 16, 32, 64, or 128 seconds. Smaller sample periods (faster sampling) uses more energy and shortens battery life. The default sample period is 32 seconds. LoRa IoT Smart Room Sensor User Guide TEKTELIC Communications Inc. T0006338_UG Version 1.2 Page 16 of 27 2 Installation 2.1 Included Product and Installation Material The following items are included with each sensor:
Smart Room Sensor Mounting Bracket User Guide 2.2 Safety Precautions The following safety precautions should be observed:
The Smart Room Sensor is intended for indoor use only. The Smart Room Sensor contains a lithium coin cell battery. NEVER allow small children near batteries: if a battery is swallowed, immediately seek medical attention. To reduce risk of fire, explosion or chemical burns: replace only with approved 3 V CR2450 coin batteries; DO NOT recharge, disassemble, heat above 100C (212F) or incinerate battery. The Smart Room Sensor requires an external magnet for use with the internal magnetic switch. Keep magnets away from all children. Small magnets can pose a serious choking hazard. If multiple magnets are swallowed, immediately seek medical attention. 2.3 Unpacking and Inspection The following should be considered during the unpacking of a new Smart Room Sensor:
1. Inspect the shipping carton and report any significant damage to TEKTELIC. 2. Unpacking should be conducted in a clean and dry location. 3. Do not discard the shipping box or inserts as they will be required if a unit is returned for repair or re-configuration. 2.4 Required Equipment for Installation There are no tools required for Smart Room Sensor installation. LoRa IoT Smart Room Sensor User Guide TEKTELIC Communications Inc. T0006338_UG Version 1.2 Page 17 of 27 2.5 Smart Room Sensor Mounting Smart Room Sensor is designed to be mounted using the supplied mounting bracket. The bracket can be attached using screws or double-sided tape (not included). When mounting on a vertical surface, ensure that the Room Sensor will not be orientated with the case retaining screws towards the ceiling. This could cause the Room Sensor to accidently slip off the mount and fall. There are no orientation concerns when the Room Sensor is mounted to a horizontal surface. 2.6 External Connector Cable Installation The Smart Room Sensor with external connection installation requires connection to an external device. The external device cable attaches to the 2-pin connector located on the top of the sensor. Figure 2-1 shows the external connector pinout. In the digital mode, the connector is designed to be attached to an open-drain output; however, the signal line can also be driven with digital signals at 1.8 V logic levels. In the analog mode, the two pins of the External Connector are polarity agnostic, and are connected to a thermistor. Figure 2-1: The Smart Room Sensor external connector signals. In the digital or analog mode, the connection cable MUST be routed through a cable clip provided with the Base model, as shown in Figure 2-2. This leads to the best EMI performance of the Sensor. The cable length in any mode should NOT exceed 3 meters. Also ensure that the cable connection is not routed outdoors. LoRa IoT Smart Room Sensor User Guide TEKTELIC Communications Inc. T0006338_UG Version 1.2 Page 18 of 27 Figure 2-2: The cable clip to be attached to the Base model as shown if a cable is to be connected to the External Connector.

To turn off the device the battery must be removed, but to simply reset the device, the external reset button can be pushed; see Section 4.4 for description of the reset function. Refer to Section 5 Battery Replacement for instructions on battery removal. LoRa IoT Smart Room Sensor User Guide TEKTELIC Communications Inc. T0006338_UG Version 1.2 Page 20 of 27 4 Operation, Alarms, and Management 4.1 Configuration The Smart Room Sensor supports a full range of Over-the-Air (OTA) configuration options. Specific technical details are available in the Room Sensor Technical Reference Manual [2]. All configuration commands need to be sent OTA during a sensors downlink windows. 4.2 Default Configuration The default configuration on the Base and External Connection Room Sensor is:
Report Temperature, Humidity, and Battery Voltage every one (1) hour. Report actuation of the Magnetic Switch and the Digital Input (i.e. External Connector in the digital mode) every one (1) actuation. The default configuration on the PIR Room Sensor is:
Report Temperature, Humidity, and Battery Voltage every one (1) hour. Report the PIR status:
o When PIR first detects motion. o When PIR has stopped detecting motion for more than five (5) minutes. Report actuation of the Magnetic Switch every one (1) actuation. 4.3 LED Behaviour See Figure 1-2 for the location and identification of the sensor LEDs. During the boot and join procedure:
Both LEDs will come on briefly when power is first applied. After a small delay ( < 1 second ) the LEDs will turn off and one of them will blink briefly. o If the System LED blinks, then all health checks on the board passed. o If the LoRa LED blinks, then one of the health checks failed. Consider replacing the battery, or moving the sensor to an environment within temperature range. Immediately after, the join procedure will begin. During the time the System LED will blink continuously until the sensor has joined a network. The LoRa LED will now blink whenever LoRa activity occurs on the sensor (transmitting or receiving packets) LoRa IoT Smart Room Sensor User Guide TEKTELIC Communications Inc. T0006338_UG Version 1.2 Page 21 of 27 During normal operation:
The LoRa LED will blink whenever LoRa activity occurs on the sensor (transmitting or receiving packets) The System LED can be controlled via the downlink command interface. 4.4 Reset Button Function There is a reset button on the device, that can be pushed by a pin, such as a paper clip (see Figure 1-2). The button should not be pushed hard. The reset is instant, i.e. the button does not need to be kept pushed. The reset restarts the microprocessor. All the FW load and configuration parameters in the Flash are remembered during the reset. LoRa IoT Smart Room Sensor User Guide TEKTELIC Communications Inc. T0006338_UG Version 1.2 Page 22 of 27 5 Battery Replacement The Smart Room Sensor is powered by a standard CR2477 coin cell. Use only approved CR2477 cells when replacing the battery. The following are approved replacement cells:
