MINEW MG5 Outdoor Mobile LTE Gateway User Manual

Dairy Product Transportation

Temperature fluctuations pose significant challenges to dairy product transportation. We tackle this by installing temperature sensors on refrigerated trucks for continuous monitoring and real-time data transmission. Fleet managers receive alerts, enabling proactive measures to prevent spoilage, and resulting in improved product quality, safety, customer satisfaction, and loyalty. Bakery Product Transportation
We address the challenges of bakery product transportation by providing real- time temperature monitoring and alerts. With sensors deployed, we ensure increased visibility into temperature conditions and prompt response to deviations. Real-time analytics enable quick issue identification, while alerts for factors like door openings, power outages, and refrigeration system failures further enhance control. * Supplementary Remarks: Else applications such as equipment presence & inspection on smart construction sites, and detection of school buses and student personnel on smart campuses

WORKING PRINCIPLE

1. Please choose or match the MINEW Bluetooth sensor or asset tags based on the actual needs, as MG5 supports the Bluetooth protocol and other manufacturers’ Bluetooth devices can dlso be compatible.
2. Please use the MQTT Assistant tool to configure your own reporting mode based on the actual needs after successfully configuring the network through the Bluetooth App, so that the MG5 can directly use the low-energy mode powered by the back-up battery or the real-time mode powered by the external battery wired.
3. Configure the network between LTE-M or NB-oT through App or MQTT:; Therefore, MG5 will transmit the Bluetooth data uploading by cellular network; Meanwhile, under normal network conditions, MGS can also upload its own data including GPS coordinates, temperature, ACCetc.
4. MINEW will provide an SDK for parsing the reported data, so that  customers can process the hexadecimal data on their own server, and finally turn it into JSONformat. Then, based on the JSON data format document provided by MINEW, they can develop their own applications.

SMART FUNCTIONS

Power Supply Switching Prompt| When the external power supply is disconnected normally, MG5 automatically switches to backup battery power supply, maintains operation, and reports a switching signal signal.
MGS keeps reporting the latest power supply status data for customer to detect power supply switching.
---|---
Tamper Alerts| When the external power supply is abnormally cut off, MG5 reports an abnormal signal.
Real-time Tracking| Under external power supply, MGS5 can continuously report by setting real-time mode to achieve real-time asset tracking during transportation.
Device Low Battery Reminder| MGS can automatically detect the built-in battery level. If the battery level is too low it can report an abnormality.
Ignition Detection| 1 x dedicated ignition digital input 8V~48V DC detection on/ off for engine.
Subrounding Cellular Signal Strength Detection| Support regular detection and reporting of cellular base station signals around the device, providing networking quality parameters to the client.
Subrounding Bluetooth Signal Detection| If there is no Bluetooth signal nearby, MG5 only reports its own data, such as Temp, Acc, GPS, RSRP, etc.
Flexible Adjustment for Reporting Mode:| The flexible adjustment for reporting mode adopts a combination of heartbeat reporting and sampling interval, combined with an smart trigger reporting mechanism, for saving
energy and selectively monitors data changes in real-time.
Reconnection after Network Down| When it returns to a normal eare from a disconnected situation, MG5 automatically reconnects.
Edge Data Fitering| Data can be filtered based on surrounding Bluetooth sensor signal strength, Mac, and other conditions to reduce invalid data uploading.

PRECAUTIONS

Vehicle Internal Mounting| Fix your MGS inside your trailer engine cabinet, please Try not to set up metal objects on the
frontside of the device as much as possible. It is recommended to reserve a clearance area to
achieve the best GPS satellite search effect possible.
---|---
Tight Contact Between Ground Wire| When connecting the black (ground) wire from the wiring hamess, look for bolts, screws, or
wires that come into contact with exposed metal on the trailer chassis. Loosen the bolt, slide
the grounding wire down, and then tighten the bolt. if your grounding wire does not come
into contact with exposed metal, your MG will not work. Loose or weak grounding connec-
tions may cause inconsistent readings of MG5.
Country/Region| If you use the appropriate global roaming Nano SIM or virtual network operator, please use
MGS in countries or regions that support LTE-M or NB loT.
Working Environment Temperature| Do not use it for a long time in an environment exceeding 70 C, otherwise it may cause
damage to the built-in battery or other devices.
Other Document Support| If you need more documents, please consult MINEW sales & technical team for more information.
Preset-APN| APN parameters can be pre-set before shipping, based on the different operators used by
different customers in different countries.
Factory Set Network| The device defaults to NB-loT networking after shipping. When configuring the network,
users should combine their own SIM card and modify it to a suitable one, such as LTE-M. The
default SIM card for MGS only supports LTE-M.

INSTALLATION

Red Power Line| Must connect to a your reefer trailers battery 12V DC or above (Positive) contact.
---|---
Black Ground Line| Connect ground wire to your trailers’ battery (Negative contact) or trailers chassis.
Orange Digital Input Line| Connect to the car ACC interface, and detect whether the motor vehicle is ignited and started (8V~48V);
Can be also used as a digital input f not required;
If there is no usage requirement, it can be ignored;
Easy Mounting| 3M double-sided tape (recommended);
Screws;
Ties:
Bracket (Optional, not available yet, shown as below figure, 2 images):
Vehicle External Installation| In order to achieve the best GPS positioning and LTE communication performance, MG5 can
also be installed outside the vehicle/truck according to the customer’s own needs since the
device has IP and IK protection, but this will accelerate the aging process of the device and is
not conducive to long-term use.
