(% style="color:blue" %)** Wiring:**

54

55

~1. WSC1-L and sensors all powered by solar power via MPPT

56

57

2. WSC1-L and sensors connect to each other via RS485/Modbus.

58

59

3. WSC1-L read value from each sensor and send uplink via LoRaWAN

60

61

62

WSC1-L is shipped with a RS485 converter board, for the easy connection to different sensors and WSC1-L. Below is a connection photo:

68

(% style="color:red" %)**Notice 1:**

69

70

* All weather sensors and WSC1-L are powered by MPPT solar recharge controller. MPPT is connected to solar panel and storage battery.

71

* WSC1-L has an extra 1000mAh back up battery. So it can work even solar panel and storage battery Fails.

72

* Weather sensors won't work if solar panel and storage battery fails.

73

74

(% style="color:red" %)**Notice 2:**

75

76

Due to shipment and importation limitation, user is better to purchase below parts locally:

* Solar Panel

* Storage Battery

* MPPT Solar Recharger

81

* Mounting Kit includes pole and mast assembly. Each weather sensor has it's own mounting assembly, user can check the sensor section in this manual.

* Cabinet.

== 2.2 How it works? ==

(((

Each WSC1-L is shipped with a worldwide unique set of OTAA keys. To use WSC1-L in a LoRaWAN network, user needs to input the OTAA keys in LoRaWAN network server. After finish installation as above. Create WSC1-L in your LoRaWAN server and Power on WSC1-L , it can join the LoRaWAN network and start to transmit sensor data. The default period for each uplink is 20 minutes.

160

161

Uplink payloads include two types: Valid Sensor Value and other status / control command.

162

Uplink the device configures with FPORT=5. Once WSC1-L Joined the network, it will uplink this message to the server. After first uplink, WSC1-L will uplink Device Status every 12 hours

(((

User can also use downlink command**(0x2301)** to ask WSC1-L to resend this uplink
