IoT Long Range Wireless Asset Monitor Sensor
Introducing NCD’s Long Range IoT Wireless Asset Monitor, boasting up to a 2 Mile range using a wireless mesh networking architecture. It incorporates a precision acceleration sensor for measuring acceleration changes. Utilizing the interrupt feature of this sensor, it is able to minimize power consumption by making most of the components go to sleep while waiting for the interrupt from the sensor.
Configure the Asset Monitoring condition (interrupt settings) using configuration mode. Configure acceleration range, data rate, interrupt duration and interrupt threshold. Interrupt duration is dependent upon data rate. It is the duration for which an interrupt condition has to hold to generate a system interrupt and initiate data transmission to a nearby receiver. Interrupt threshold is dependent upon acceleration range and it is the acceleration in g which if exceeded causes interrupt to fire. Note that the absolute value of actual g reading is compared with it therefore it works for both positive and negative acceleration exceeding threshold.
User can also setup interrupt settings. Interrupt settings also user to setup whether an acceleration above or below threshold will fire interrupt. This can be configured separately for all the axis. Moreover, the user can setup OR/AND gates between the interrupts. This allows monitoring (system interrupt) if any single axis interrupt fires (OR condition) or if all axis interrupts fire (AND condition). User can also configure a delay time in seconds which disables the interrupt for that amount of time after a successful interrupt. This enables a user to make sure that the sensor does not drain its battery(with continuous transmissions) if an interrupt condition persists or a wrong condition is accidentally programmed.
Powered by just 2 AA batteries and an operational lifetime of 300,000 wireless transmissions, a 10 years battery life can be expected depending on environmental conditions and the data transmission interval. Optionally, this sensor may be externally powered.
The long range, price, accuracy, battery life and security features of Wireless Asset Monitor makes it an affordable choice which exceeds the requirements for most of the industrial as well as consumer market applications.
NOTE: This is an Asset Monitor Not an Asset Tracker. The current version of this sensor does not support the inbuilt temperature sensor.
Transmission Interval

Not for use in outdoor applications or for use in excessive temperature conditions. Prolonged freezing will prevent batteries from functioning until thawed, using extended temperature range industrial batteries may improve the useful temperature range. Extended freezing applications should use a full-time powered solution. Prolonged exposure to extreme humidity conditions may damage this device. The sensing element is rated for use for 5 years and may be replaced. Exposure to high temperatures may cause the batteries to leak, causing permanent damage to this device. NCD Warranty does not cover battery corrosion or use in excessively smoky environments under any circumstances.

Notice: Compatibility Notes Applies to NCD Industrial Products, Including Fusion, ProXR, ProXR Lite, Taralist, and Reactor Series Products.
Compatibility Notes
When using an 900HP-S3B communication module, it is essential that you use the ZIGMO_PCB to configure the module settings. Long-Range wireless sensors may be programmed over the air without removing the communications module.
A 900HP-S3B Modem or a gateway of some kind that support the 900HP-S3B communications module will also be required.
