1.2 Overview
Build a Smart IoT Environment with Fabulous LoRaWAN Sensors
PLANET LS100 and LS 200 LoRaWAN sensors are intended for environmental monitoring and data collection. Data such as temperature, humidity, illumination, and  ingress/egress all impact the status of a facility or a device, whether it is a motor, a refrigeration unit, or even the networking gear itself.
Sensors in the LS series mostly have IP65 and IP67 ratings, allowing them to be deployed in outdoor and industrial indoor environments. The number of sensors deployed depends on network requirements. The sensor(s) cam monitor a wide variety of conditions, including humidity, leak detection, room temperature, machine temperature, product temperature, ingress and egress, lighting, occupancy and asset location. These battery-operated sensors with no wiring required are easy to install in any place. 

LoRa and LoRaWAN Wireless Technology
LoRa is a low-power, wide area network (LPWAN) RF modulation technology. It standardizes LPWANs and enables extremely long-range data links. With a range of up to three miles (five kilometers) in urban areas and over 10 miles (15 kilometers) in rural areas (line of sight), LoRa is ideal for creating networks that require long-range or deep in-building communication. A key feature is its ultra-low power requirements, enabling the deployment of battery-operated  devices that can last up to several years. Using the open LoRaWAN protocol in a star topology, it’s suitable for applications with numerous low-power devices collecting small amounts of data. The LS series is ideal for LoRa-enabled  devices in the Tot system.
LoRaWAN-based Controller with Rich Industrial Interfaces
PLANET LoRaWAN Sensor is fully compatible with standard LoRaWAN gateways like PLANET LCG-300 series, supporting the LoRaWAN dass A. It is ideal for large-scale IoT applications, including building automation, smart metering, HVAC systems, agriculture, and more. The sensor facilitates the seamless integration of multiple sensors, making it a perfect choice for retrofitting legacy assets into IoT-enabled systems.

Models: LS100-WL, LS200-TH, LS200-PT, LS200-TC, LS200-RF, LS200-LG, and LS200-CM
To make the installation more secure, please use screws (purchased separately) to fix the device on the wall or other objects.

Wall mounting by the double-sided stickers
Model: LS100-PIR

1. Cena the surface of the objects before sticking with the sticker.
2. Tear off the 3M300LSE side of the sticker, place it on the bottom of the product as shown in the picture, and press it.
3. Tear off the other side of the sticker and put the sticker to a clean surface of the wall and press the sticker firmly for around 20 seconds.

Model: LS-100-DW
Tear off the magnetic body’s 3M release paper, and then adhere the body to the window or door frame by sticking it in parallel with the magnetic body.

Note   Do not install the device in a metal shielded box or in an environment surrounded by other electrical equipment to avoid affecting the wireless transmission of the device.
2.3.2 Precautions
LS100-WL: IP65 LoRaWAN Water Leak Sensor
The sensor probe of LS100-WL has to attach to the smooth ground that may accumulate leakage.

LS100-PIR: IP30 LoRaWAN Indoor Occupancy Sensor
The correct installation of LS100-PIR is shown below.

Detection Range

Coverage area A-Distance: 5 meters; sensing angle: 120°
Coverage area B-Distance: 8 meters; sensing angle: 60°
Coverage area C-Distance: 11 meters; sensing angle: 30°
LS100-DW: IP30 LoRaWAN Door and Window Sensor
The distance between the two objects has to be less than 2am.
LS200-TH: IP65 LoRaWAN Indoor Temperature and Humidity Sensor (-20~55 degrees C)
Installation height recommendation: 1-2 m.
LS200-PT: IP65 LoRaWAN Product Temperature Sensor (PT1000 Needle Probe, -70~200 degrees C)
When LS200-TC is compared with the last reported values, the temperature change is expected to exceed 0.1°C (by default). It will report values at the Min Time interval if it does not exceed 0.1°C (by default). It will report values at the Max. Time interval.
LS200-TC: IP65 LoRaWAN Machine Temperature Sensor (Thermocouple -40~125 degrees C)
When LS200-TC is compared with the last reported values, the temperature change is expected to exceed 10°C (by default). It will report values at the Min. Time interval. If it does not exceed 10°C (by default), it will report values at the Max. Time interval.
LS200-LG: IP65 LoRaWAN Refrigerator Temperature and Humidity Sensor (-40~55 degrees C)
Compare the illumination value detected by the illumination sensor with the set illumination value. The detected value exceeds the set value (default 50 Lux), the currently detected illumination value is sent.

1LS200-CM3
The 3-phase current meter (LS200-CM3) samples the current according to Min. Time. If the current value sampled this time relatively exceeds the set value (the default is 100mA) more than the current value reported last time, the  device will immediately report the current value sampled this time. If the current variation does not exceed the default value, the data will be reported regularly according to Max. Time.

1. When using it, the back of it can be adsorbed on  the iron surface, or the two ends can be fixed to the wall with screws.
2. When installing the S200-CM3 current transformer, please separate the live and neutral wires of the wire to be detected, and only take the live wire through current transformer and start the measurement according to the wiring below:

If the live wire and the neutral wire are connected together at the same time, they will offset each other and the measurement is 0. “L K” is marked on the bottom of the CT.
WARNING 1: Before using, user must check whether the appearance is deformed; otherwise, the test accuracy will be affected.
WARNING 2: The operating environment should be kept away from strong magnetic fields, so as not to affect the test accuracy. It is strictly forbidden to use in humid and corrosive gas environments.
WARNING 3: Before installation, please confirm the current value of the load.
If the current value of the load is higher than the measurement range, select a model with a higher measurement range.
WARNING 4: Children and the persons who do not have enough knowledge about electric measurements must not use this instrument.
WARNING 5: Do not measure the electricity naked or barefooted to protect yourself from electrical shock hazard.
WARNING 6: Be careful not to get hurt with the sharp test lead pins.
WARNING 7: Warning for High Power Line Measurements High Power Line (High Energy Circuits) such as Distribution Transformers, Bus Bars and Large Motors are very dangerous. High Power Line sometimes includes High Surge  Voltage that could cause explosive short in the instrument and could result in shock hazard. For voltage measurement of High Power Line, do not touch Clamp Meter, its Test Leads, and any part of the circuit.
WARNING 8: Warning for High Voltage Measurements
Even for Low Energy Circuits of electric/electronic appliances, such as heating elements, small motors, line cords and plugs, High Voltage Measurements are very dangerous. Do not touch Clamp Meter, Test Leads, and any part of the circuit. Generally, shock hazard could occur when the current between the circuit that involves more than 33V rams or 46.7V DC or peak and ground goes up to 0.5mA or more.
