Micropilot FWR30 Output Output signal Cellular radio NB-IoT, LTE-M with 2G fallback • 2G GPRS/EDGE • 4G LTE-M1 (LTE Cat-M1) • 4G LTE-NB1 (NB-IoT) The cellular radio signal is selected automatically by the device. The selection depends on availability. The priority is 4G (LTE-M1 or LTE-NB1). If neither of the two cellular radio signals is available, the 2G (GPRS or EDGE) cellular radio signal is selected. Transmission interval 15 minutes to 24 hours. The battery life depends on the transmission interval.
