Detailed Information

Features

  • Supporting a wide range of sensors: it can support 100+ industrial sensors and 100+ grove sensors including various sensor types such as Analog/I2C/UART/RS485

  • LoRaWAN Wireless Transmission: ultra-low power consumption and ultra ultra-wide-distance transmission range. It has Max.10 years of battery life and can cover a transmission range of 2km in urban scenes and 10km in line of sight scenes

  • Industrial design: -40℃ ~ 85℃ operating temperature and IP66 rating, suitable for indoor, outdoor, and harsh environments such as high UV exposure, heavy rain, dusty conditions, etc.

  • Over the Air Configuration in 1 min: scan the QR code on the device and just in a few clicks to choose the frequencies you want, all the configuration can be done via Bluetooth

  • Easily get data, no clunky software interfaces: temperature and humidity data can smoothly be sent to your phone and cloud servers or other IoT data management platforms you’re using,

  • Powerful supported SenseCAP APP: you can set threshold value (just focus on the data you need take action for), time intervals (improve the battery efficiency), and set alarms if data is out of the safe range.

  • Flexibly compatible with various LoRaWAN gateways: can be used with different types of LoRaWAN gateways and compatible with multiple LoRaWAN Network Servers (Helium, TTN) to enable our sensor quickly join in your current LoRaWAN networks

This data logger can collect data from multiple sensors and transfer the data through LoRaWAN network. If you have deployed sensors that are not based on the LoRaWAN network, then with our LoRaWAN data logger, you can change them into LoRaWAN-based sensors and use the LoRaWAN network to transfer data. You can easily enjoy the advantages of LoRaWAN technology such as low power consumption and long transmission range,  without affording the cost of changing the sensors you are using.

If you have not deployed any sensors, you can consider other sensors in S210x series, they can provide off-the-shelf experience for you. If the parameters in our SenseCAP S210x series can not satisfy your need (we provide air temperature & humidity, C02, soil moisture & humidity, EC, and light intensity in S210x series), you can consider using other sensors that support Analog/I2C/UART/RS485. Please check “Also Add” on the right side to see what sensors we provide now.

Why is SenseCAP S210x outstanding in LoRaWAN Sensors? 

S210x offers an easy-to-use experience design.

Traditional LoRaWAN Sensors

SenseCAP S210x

Sensors

Parameter Setting

  • need a cable to connect the device to computer; unfriendly to users without technical background

  • no need for a cable; a few clicks on your phone will finish all the configuration work via Bluetooth

Device Status Observation

  • disassemble the device and observe status of the lights on PCBA

  • external buttons and LED on the device, easy to press and observe

Power

  • use customerized battery; can not be accessible on the market

  • some need Wiring Method to power the device

  • the standard D-size Li-SOCL2 battery  available on Amazon and other platforms

  • no need for wires, battery-powered

Frequency offer

  • if you get the wrong frequency, then you will have to change it and bear freight or custom cost

  • each device supports frequency from 863MHz ~928MHz, you can change the frequency any time via your phone

Deployment Test

  • it’s hard to find whether the sensor works during field deployment stage

  • can know the real time status of your device via your phone

With it, you can be benefited from:

Scan-and-Play Simplicity, Easy Configuration via Bluettoth in Just 1 min 

Bluetooth 5.0 has reduced many configuration works, no need for connecting it with your computers or do some complicated wiring work. All you need to do is to scan the QR code on the device, and the DevEUI、AppEUI and AppKey will automatically show up on your phone. After a few clicks to set the frequency (because each device supports 7 frequencies, more info is shown below),  the whole configuration process is done!

For individuals who are new to LoRaWAN, they can quickly get started with this small but powerful IoT wireless temperature and humidity sensor. So, if you’re seeking some wireless temperature and humidity sensors for your smart garden or smart irrigation home projects or you want a wireless air temperature and humidity sensor to detect the ambient air quality for your home or office. This wireless long-range air temperature and humidity sensor is the one you don’t want to miss.

For business, in order to achieve the biggest efficiency, it is important to cut the time and cost that is going to be spent on large scale device deployment and later device maintenance, this wireless Long Range temperature, and humidity sensor can give you a hand on this.

In Q3,  we will release another two advanced functions for you to set time intervals (how often you want to receive the data) and set threshold values (not all the data are valuable and you can focus on the range you need to take action for).

Minimal maintenance cost: power-conscious battery, rugged enclosure and remote data monitoring   

SenseCAP S2100 data logger incorporates a built-in Long Range Module(Wio-E5) for long-range transmission and a standard Li-SOCl2 high-capacity battery. It is specifically designed and optimized for use cases that need to power end devices for years. To minimize the power consumption, the device wakes up, transmits the collected relative data to the gateway, and then goes back to sleep.

Under the best of circumstances, the battery is expected to last for more than 10 years, depending on the environmental factors and data transmission intervals. Please kindly note that the default interval is once per hour. The sensor can quickly replace a new battery by unscrewing just three screws. The battery is a standard Li-SOCl2 battery (type: ER34615) that can purchase from Amazon and other platforms.

Different data display choices — Open API for different data management consoles 

It allows you to check the real-time data on the phone, which gives you the biggest convenience. You can remotely check the data highs & lows.

We provide an easy integration method if you’re using other PaaS to manage your data, such as Microsoft Azure or AWS or your own cloud/Edge servers.

(3 Steps to Get the Data based on SenseCAP Portal)

Strong compatibility: works perfectly with different gateways and network servers

SenseCAP Architecture: SenseCAP ecosystem offers you a no-code and the most time-saving experience

If you’re using our SenseCAP LoRaWAN Outdoor Gateway, then you are successfully building a SenseCAP ecosystem, which means that you can onboard your device just by a simple OTA configuration on your phone. This can be a no-code process and then you can get access to a convenient web-based console.

Helium Network Architecture: make full advantage of the Helium coverage and various powerful IoT data management platforms on the Helium console

Note: if your area is covered by the Helium network, then you can directly use it by integrating the device in the network; if you don’t, you can buy SenseCAP M1/M2 to build your own Helium network

We’re establishing cooperation with many IoT data management platforms such as Ubidots and Datacake in order to provide a more ready-to-use experience to you. You can just choose the platforms you want the data to go directly to on the Helium console and no need for software testing work.

Standard LoRaWAN Architecture: for other LoRaWAN Network Servers and various LoRaWAN gateways on the marketplace 

This LoRaWAN air temperature and humidity sensor meet the standard LoRaWAN protocol, so it supports multiple frequency bands and is perfectly compatible with different brands of gateways on the marketplace. If you already have a standard LoRaWAN gateway, you can use this sensor directly.

Applications

  • Greenhouse Vegetables Growing 

Light is the energy of vegetable photosynthesis. The light intensity directly affects the rate of photosynthesis thus affecting vegetable productivity. Also, different vegetables need different light intensities. Our LoRaWAN Light Sensors can help remotely monitor real-time light intensity and help you know whether the light intensity is good for your vegetables now.

  • Floriculture

Flowers can’t grow without light. The lack of light will make the flowers grow less and the leaves may turn yellow. The need for light intensity varies from flower to flower, some are light-loving plants but some are not. Also, certain growing periods need a certain light intensity. With our Light Intensity Sensor, you can know the light condition well and better take care of your flowers.
