As soon as the specified magnetic pattern is applied to the Agriculture Sensor, the Agriculture

Sensor is reset and tries to join the network. See section 4.3 for the expected LED behaviour of

the Agriculture Sensor during the join process. It may take about 10 sec from the Agriculture

Sensor reset to seeing the LED activity showing join attempts. Therefore, as step 2 in the above

is completed, it takes about 13 seconds before observing the LED activity (provided that step 3

is respected).

Note that the specified magnetic pattern always triggers a module reset, even during normal

operation. Such a reset also activates an already in-DEEP-SLEEP module.

The Agriculture Sensor can be put into DEEP SLEEP at any time by opening it up and pressing

the internal sleep button labeled as SW1 and located visibly on top of the Agriculture Sensor

PCBA. See Figure 7 below.
