5.3．Deployment Procedures
1) Open the box: Take the node out of the package and open its lid;
2) Insert Battery: By default, a node does not contain a D-Cell battery. Therefore the battery needs to be inserted.
Notice : +ve and –ve orientation must be correct, otherwise, the internal circuit may be damaged;
3) Antenna Installation: Screw the antenna firmly onto the node;
4) Power On: turn the switch to the ON status. After that, you will see: 3 LEDs flashing for 3 times, then green LED
on for 1s, then 3 LEDs quickly flashing once, and finally all 3 LEDs are completely turned off to save battery power
while a node is running. Switch off the node to save power if the gateway is off;
5) Tighten the 4 Cap-Hex-Head screws of the lid to secure the enclosure IP rating;
6) To validate the sensor data, please visit WISENMESHNET® Visualisation Platform for further details.
5.4．Mounting Options
The node fixings must be rigid for the sensor to measure accurate data. Movement in the fixings will affect the
readings.
The Omni Tilt Sensor Nodes must be oriented with any two axis marked on the label parallel to the horizontal plane, so
that the data can be easily interpreted.
6. General Maintenance and Notification
1) Once a Tilt Node is installed in the field, please minimise any man-made disturbance so that data
quality can be maintained;
2) Radio communication will be impaired if the antenna is covered by metal or very moist soil material;
3) Due to the discharge characteristics of the recommended battery, a battery replacement should be carried out
when a node reported voltage reaches 2.7V, at which point you have approximately 3 weeks to change the
battery;
4) Our product will use all the possible capacity in a battery down to a stop (minimum) voltage, which has been
specified in the Features table. When this occurs, our WISENMESHNET protocol will send you a warning then it
will enter a deep sleep mode until a new battery is installed;
5) If the data from nodes are shown unexpected results or are not being sent back to the Wisen gateway, then please
