Xiaoling 50.3 13 == 1.1 ​ What is NSPH01 Soil pH Sensor ==
David Huang 10.1 14
15
Xiaoling 50.3 16 The Dragino NSPH01 is a (% style="color:blue" %)**NB-IoT soil pH sensor**(%%) for IoT of Agriculture. It is designed to measure the soil pH and soil temperature, so to send to the platform to analyze the soil acid or alkali level. The probe is IP68 waterproof.
David Huang 10.1 17
Xiaoling 50.3 18 NSPH01 probe is made by Solid AgCl reference electrode and Pure metal pH sensitive electrode. It can detect soil's** (% style="color:blue" %)pH (%%)**with high accuracy and stable value. The NSPH01 probe can be buried into soil for long time use.
Xiaoling 50.2 19
David Huang 10.1 20 NarrowBand-Internet of Things (NB-IoT) is a standards-based low power wide area (LPWA) technology developed to enable a wide range of new IoT devices and services. NB-IoT significantly improves the power consumption of user devices, system capacity and spectrum efficiency, especially in deep coverage.
Xiaoling 50.3 21 \\NSPH01 supports different uplink methods include (% style="color:blue" %)**TCP,MQTT,UDP and CoAP  **(%%)for different application requirement.
22 \\NSPH01 is powered by (% style="color:blue" %)**8500mAh Li-SOCI2 battery**(%%), It is designed for long term use up to 5 years. (Actually Battery life depends on the use environment, update period & uplink method)
23 \\To use NSPH01, user needs to check if there is NB-IoT coverage in the installation area and with the bands NSPH01 supports. If the local operator supports it, user needs to get a (% style="color:blue" %)**NB-IoT SIM card** (%%)from local operator and install NSPH01 to get NB-IoT network connection.

David Huang 34.1 104
Xiaoling 50.3 105
David Huang 34.1 106 The NSPH01 is equipped with a NB-IoT module, the pre-loaded firmware in NSPH01 will get environment data from sensors and send the value to local NB-IoT network via the NB-IoT module.  The NB-IoT network will forward this value to IoT server via the protocol defined by NSPH01.
107
108 The diagram below shows the working flow in default firmware of NSPH01:

Xiaoling 50.3 120
Edwin Chen 46.1 121 To use NSPH01 in the field, make sure meet below requirements:
David Huang 34.1 122
123 * Your local operator has already distributed a NB-IoT Network there.
124 * The local NB-IoT network used the band that NSPH01 supports.
125 * Your operator is able to distribute the data received in their NB-IoT network to your IoT server.
126
Xiaoling 52.2 127 Below figure shows our testing structure. Here we have NB-IoT network coverage by China Mobile, the band they use is B8.  The NSPH01 will use** CoAP(120.24.4.116:5683) **or raw **UDP(120.24.4.116:5601)** or **MQTT(120.24.4.116:1883)**or **TCP(120.24.4.116:5600)**protocol to send data to the test server.
