5. Operation Procedures
5.1．System Deployment Notifications
1) Location: The deployment location is usually determined by the desired monitoring or inspection location;
2) All the Serial Numbers of a Unit must be recorded against their site references;
3) Before it is switched on, a gateway must be deployed, powered on and proven to be working properly. Otherwise,
the nodes will need to be switched off and on again after a gateway is switched on. So simply speaking, the rules
to follow when deploying and turning on a WISENMESHNET system are:
Gateway first, then nearby nodes, then further nodes.
4) All the Serial Numbers must be recorded against their site references;
5) All the node should have its antenna point upwards/downwards.
5.2．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 tightly onto the node;
4) Make sure Vcc_Out Switch is on the right setting, e.g., Laser takes Switch = “2” (i.e., 12V Output);
Figure 4. Vcc_Out Switch.
5) Power On: switch on the node by On/Off Switch. Now you should be able to see 3 LEDs flashing 3 times, this
means the node is on. Then switch off the node to save power if the gateway is off;
6) Tighten the 4 Cap-Hex-Head screws of the lid to secure the enclosure IP rating;
