1.2. Conditions of use
General:
• Read the “General and Safety Information” section carefully and keep the manual for future reference.
• Read carefully the “General Conditions of Sale and Use of Libelium”. This document can be found at:
http://www.libelium.com/development/waspmote/technical_service . As specified in the Warranty document, the client
has
7 days
from the day the order is received to detect any failure and report that to Libelium. Any other failure reported
after these 7 days may not be considered under warranty.
• Use Waspmote in accordance with the electrical specifications and in the environments described in the “Electrical Data”
section of this manual.
• Waspmote and its components and modules are supplied as electronic boards to be integrated within a final product.
This product must have an enclosure to protect it from dust, humidity and other environmental interactions. If the pro-
duct is to be used outside, the enclosure must have an IP-65 rating, at the minimum. For a ready-to-install product, we
advise our Plug & Sense! line.
• Do not place Waspmote in contact with metallic surfaces; they could cause short-circuits which will permanently dama-
ge it.
Specific:
• Reset and ON/OFF button: Handle with care, do not force activation or use tools (pliers, screwdrivers, etc) to handle it.
• Battery: Only use the original lithium battery provided with Waspmote.
• Mini USB connection: Only use mini USB, mod. B, compatible cables.
• Solar panel connection: Only use the connector specified in the Power supplies section and always respect polarity.
• Lithium battery connection: Only use the connector specified in the Battery section and always respect polarity.
• Micro SD card connection: Only use 2GB maximum micro SD cards. HC cards are not compatible. There are many SD
card models; any of them has defective blocks, which are ignored when using the Waspmote’s SD library. However,
when using OTA, those SD blocks cannot be avoided, so that the execution could crash. Libelium implements a special
process to ensure the SD cards we provide will work fine with OTA. The only SD cards that Libelium can assure that
work correctly with Waspmote are the SD cards we distribute officially.
• Micro SD card: Make sure Waspmote is switched off before inserting or removing the SD card. Otherwise, the SD card
could be damaged.
• Micro SD card: Waspmote must not be switched off or reseted while there are ongoing read or write operations in the
SD card. Otherwise, the SD card could be damaged and data could be lost.
• GSM/GPRS board connection: Only use the original Waspmote GSM/GPRS board.
• 3G/GPRS board connection: Only use the original Waspmote 3G/GPRS board.
• XBee module connection: Waspmote allows the connection of any module from the XBee family, respect polarity when
connecting (see print).
• Antenna connections: Each of the antennas that can be connected to Waspmote (or to its boards) must be connected
using the correct type of antenna and connector in each case, or using the correct adaptors.
• USB voltage adaptors: To power and charge the Waspmote battery, use only the original accessories: 220V AC – USB
adaptor and 12V DC (car cigarette lighter) – USB adaptor
