Putting the product into service
Unless otherwise requested, ACW products are delivered with batteries connected and set to "deep sleep"
mode.
To place the product in its operating mode, hold a magnet against the QRCODE label for 6 seconds. During these six
seconds, the product's LED should blink
WHITE
and then
GREEN
at the end of the six seconds to indicate that the
product has been successfully switched on.
The ACW then enters the network pairing phase. During this phase, a
FUSCHIA
light signal with a fade effect
indicates that the search phase is in progress.
If the connection is successful, the product will emit a light signal indicating the quality of the network:
GREEN
light signal: good network quality
•
YELLOW light: average network quality
•
ORANGE
light: low network quality
•
WHITE
light: no information on network quality
The module will then enter its operating mode and start sending information to the network according to the
configuration.
NOTE
The LoRaWAN version, if it fails to connect, will go into simple sleep mode and make the next pairing attempt the next day and
every day until it successfully joins the network.
Special case
For a Sigfox product
•
To have the information on the quality of the Sigfox network (
GREEN
, YELLOW or
ORANGE
light signal), it is
necessary to provide a Sigfox Downlink. It is this one which will allow to rule on the quality of the network.
The product emits at startup a test Uplink described in the chapter Classic frame (frame type 0x02). If a Sigfox
Downlink is provided, the information on the network quality will be sent back by the ACW (light signal). If no
Downlink is provided, the ACW will always display the WHITE light signal at the end.
•
If a
WHITE
light signal is emitted by the product at the end of the 5min pairing phase and a Downlink has been
provisioned, it means that the Network is not accessible.
•
If a WHITE light at the end of the 5min pairing phase is emitted by the product without a downlink having been
provisioned, this has no meaning as to the quality of the network. The network quality can be good or bad (or
non-existent).
