ESSAGES
The sensor can be triggered to send test messages by placing a magnet next to the side of the
sensor. The location of the magnet is indicated by the triangular notch on the side of RBSx01
and RBSx05 sensors. RBSx04 sensors do not have this capability. There is a small magnetic Hall
effect sensor that will detect the presence of a magnet and send a message. This can be used for
diagnostic purposes to ensure the sensor is within range and connected to the network.

This section defines the protocol and message definitions for the sensor.
If the standard Radio Bridge console (console.radiobridge.com) is not used, refer to this section
to decode the sensor data and configure the sensor through downlink messages.
Radio Bridge provides a web-based console at console.radiobridge.com
to configure and monitor sensors. Usage of this console is highly
recommended for most customers rather than implementing the
protocols defined in this section.

Common Messages
There are common messages across all wireless sensors that are defined in the document
“Common Sensor Messages” which is available on the Radio Bridge website.
Common messages include basic error messages, tamper, supervisory, and downlink ack. It is
important to refer to that document prior to decoding the messages defined in this section.
Refer to the document “Common Sensor Messages” for definitions of all
common messages. Common messages are not defined in this document.
