1. Product Introduction 1.1 Overview AM103/AM103L is a compact indoor ambience monitoring device including humidity, temperature, and CO2 sensor for wireless LoRa network. It is equipped with NFC (Near Field Communication) and can easily be configured via a smartphone or a PC software. Sensor data are transmitted in real-time using standard LoRaWAN® protocol which enables encrypted radio transmissions over long distance while consuming very little power.
2.2 Hardware Overview 2.
When the CO2 concentration exceeds the Polluted threshold When the CO2 concentration exceeds the Bad threshold Note: AM103 will update data on the screen every 2 minutes if Screen Smart Mode is disabled; AM103 will do a full-screen refresh after 30 times update in order to remove ghosting. When AM103 detects the temperature beyond the range from 0°C to 40°C, the screen will close automatically. Please refer section 4.5.2 for Excellent/Polluted/Bad threshold settings. 2.
3. Power Supply Remove the rear cover of device to install the batteries, do not reverse the direction of batteries when installing. Note: The device can only be powered by ER14505 Li-SOCl2 batteries not AA batteries. 4. Operation Guide 4.1 Log in the ToolBox The AM103/AM103L can be configured via a NFC supported mobile phone. 1. Download and install “Milesight ToolBox” App from Google Play or Apple App Store. 2. Enable NFC on the smartphone and launch Milesight ToolBox. 3.
to try again. 3) AM103/AM103L can also be configured by ToolBox software via a dedicated NFC reader provided by Milesight IoT, you can also configure it via TTL interface inside the device. 4.2 LoRaWAN Settings LoRaWAN settings is used for configuring the transmission parameters in LoRaWAN® network. Basic LoRaWAN Settings: Go to “Device -> Settings -> LoRaWAN Settings” of ToolBox App to configure join type, App EUI, App Key and other information. You can also keep all settings by default.
Session Key Spread Factor Confirmed Mode If ADR is disabled, the device will send data via this spread factor. If the device does not receive ACK packet from network server, it will resend data 3 times at most. Reporting interval ≤ 30 mins: the device will send specific amount of LoRaMAC packets to check connection status every 30 mins; If there is no Rejoin Mode reply after specific amount of packets sent, the device will re-join.
4.3 Time Synchronization Go to “Device -> Status” of Toolbox App to click “Sync” to sync the time on the screen.
4.4 Basic Settings Go to “Device -> Settings -> General Settings” of ToolBox App to change the reporting interval, screen mode, etc. Parameters Description Change the temperature unit displayed on the ToolBox and screen. Temperature Unit Note: 1) The temperature unit in the reporting package is fixed as °C. 2) Please modify the threshold settings if the unit is changed. Reporting Interval LED Indicator Change Password Reporting interval of transmitting current sensor values to network server.
4.5 Advanced Settings 4.5.1 Calibration Settings ToolBox supports numerical calibration for all items. Go to “Device -> Settings -> Calibration Settings” of ToolBox App to type the calibration value and save, the device will add the calibration value to raw value. Besides numerical calibration, ToolBox provides more calibration methods for CO2: Manual Calibration: Put the device in an open outdoor environment for more than 10 minutes and click this button to calibrate the CO2 value.
the threshold. Note that when you change the temperature unit, please re-configure the threshold. For CO2 threshold, it supports defining Excellent, Polluted and Bad threshold for traffic light and screen alarms. Besides, when it exceeds the Bad threshold, AM103/AM103L will upload the current data once instantly. 4.6 Maintenance 4.6.1 Upgrade 1. Download firmware from www.milesight-iot.com to your smartphone. 2. Open ToolBox App and click “Browse” to import firmware and upgrade the device.
4.6.2 Backup AM103/AM103L supports configuration backup for easy and quick device configuration in bulk. Backup is allowed only for devices with the same model and LoRaWAN® frequency band. 1. Go to “Template” page on the App and save current settings as a template. You can also edit the template file. 2. Select one template file that saved in the smartphone and click “Write”, then attach it to another device to write configuration. Note: Slide the template item to the left to edit or delete it.
4.6.3 Reset to Factory Default Please select one of following methods to reset device: Via Hardware: Hold on power button for more than 10s. Via ToolBox App: Go to “Device -> Maintenance” to click “Reset”, then attach smart phone with NFC area to device to complete reset. 5. Installation Fixed by Screws: 1. Remove the rear cover of the device, screw the wall plugs into the wall and fix the rear cover with screws on it, then install back the device. 2.
Note: In order to ensure the best detection and LoRaWAN® communication work, it is recommended to install AM103/AM103L as follows: Do not mount the device where the temperature is below/above operating range and temperature varies greatly. Stay far away from any heat source or cold source like oven, refrigerator. Do not mount the device close to where airflow varies greatly like windows, vent, fan and air conditioner. Do not mount the device upside down.
