Introduction
The R718WA is a Wireless Water Leak Detector for Netvox ClassA type devices based on the
LoRaWAN open protocol and is compatible with the LoRaWAN protocol.
When the R718WA detects a leak, it will send an alarm message to the gateway. When the water
sensor detects that there is no water leak again, it will send a back to normal status message to the
gateway, which uses the SX1276 wireless communication module.
LoRa Wireless Technology:
LoRa is a wireless communication technology dedicated to long distance and low power
consumption. Compared with other communication methods, LoRa spread spectrum modulation
method greatly increases to expand the communication distance. Widely used in long-distance,
low-data wireless communications. For example, automatic meter reading, building automation
equipment, wireless security systems, industrial monitoring. Main features include small size, low
power consumption, transmission distance, anti-interference ability and so on.
LoRaWAN:
LoRaWAN uses LoRa technology to define end-to-end standard specifications to ensure
interoperability between devices and gateways from different manufacturers.
