  • LEDs status L1, L2 et L3:

L1: green| Operating mode| OFF: Radio Mode

ON: RS485 Mode (unused in SORADIO)

| LEDs active only if BLE is activated after a short press on the tamper
---|---|---|---
L2: orange| Radio configuration status| Blinking: Radio mode not configured ON: Radio mode configured
L3: red| BLE status| OFF: BLE deactivated

Blinking: BLE active waiting for connection ON: BLE active connected to the application

Maximum length of 12V DC power supply cables: (cable type SYT1 shielded)

Wire Wire section Maximum length of cables
0.6 mm 0.02 in 0.3 mm²
0.9 mm 0.04 in 0.6 mm²
1.4 mm 0.06 in 1.5 mm²

Note: When using the same cable to supply power to several components, the indicated distances should be divided  by the number of connected components. When using several wires with the same section in parallel by polarity, the indicated distances should be multiplied by the number of connected wires.

SMARTPHONE APPLICATION

Note: The smartphone application is compatible from Android 4.1 or higher.

  1. Download the smartphone application “Sorhea Connect”.
