Press'O sensor

Presentation

The Press'O sensor is a LoRaWAN class A sensor that manages two different power supplies: one is external and may range from 9V to 24V, the other one is internal on the battery. The Press'O sensor incorporates 2 analog inputs, 1 digital input and 1 output power source (configurable in 10V or 14V and in duration from 0 to x ms, by default 125ms). It also includes an internal antenna.

The Press’O sensor can be used with First Sensor gauge type CTE/CTU/CTW 8000. The probe should be dimensioned so that the maximum height of the fluid does not exceed the maximum pressure allowed by the probe. The Press'O sensor is also compatible with Huba Control's level sensing pressure transmitter Type 712.

Family code / Release Note

The family code of Press'o devices is: 50-70-017-(005 and upper) or 50-70-189 [with external antenna] For 50-70-017-004 and lower see older revision documentation

Release note:

50-70-017-006: new casing, battery holder, output power selection

LoRaWAN release

v1.0.2 Region Parameter rev B

Electronic specification

P1.A1: output power supply [V+] configurable in 10V or 14V by switching sw500. P1.A2: Gnd [V-] P1.A3: 0-10V input [M]. Load resistance is 10K. P1.A4: 4-20mA input [M] P4.-: Gnd P4.+: digital input

4-20 mA mode

• In the 4-20 mA mode, it is better to use 10V output power supply. The V+ (power supply of the external probe) is powered during 120ms by default.

• To add an external power supply, make the following connections:

• A series connection can be made with the Press'O and another reader (external sensor) with a 4-20mA input.

0-10 V mode

In the 0-10V mode, the V+ (power supply of the external sensor) is powered during 120ms by default:

On the Press'O: V+ is the output power supply, V- is the ground, M is the measurement input.

On the sensor: + is the input power supply , - is the ground, and M is the measurement output.

Installation and operation

Installation

The housing is intended to be installed inside or outside a building but it must be protected from vertical water spray and direct sunlight. The product is delivered disassembled. This enables the connection to the screw terminals. Before connecting your cable strands to the product’s screw terminals, you must insert the cable gland's nut and the seal.

Then connect the wires to the Inputs that will be used. For the connectors,we recommend using several 20-26 AWG single wires. As the connectors pinch the wires plugged inside approximately 4mm from the wire end, strip the wires over a length of approximately 5 to 6mm before plugging them into the connectors. Once the assembly is complete, the casing can be closed. The housing is compatible with the following DIN rail adapter:

Radio propagation

In order for the sensor to operate correctly, the number of obstacles should be limited in order to avoid excessive radio wave attenuation. It is also important to place the sensor as high as possible. The Press'O sensor has 3 cable glands, which should be positioned horizontally.

Autonomy

The information in the table below represents how long the battery can last. It is based on the default configuration at ambient temperature (+25°C) within the optimal operating range of the sensor via a LoRaWAN network (one uplink frame), when the spreading factor used is SF12. The disposable battery has a 3.6Ah capacity, of which 85% is used.

Human Machine Interface

The Press’O sensor has a buzzer that allows it to “communicate” with the user. A reed switch is available under the sticker. It is possible to use a magnet to activate it and makes specific actions on the sensor (Switch off, switch on, Re-associtation…). When the reed switch is activated, the buzzer rings quickly. CapturePressoAimant

To Start-up the device, it is necessary to put a magnet on the side of the sensor during one second (at the left side of the cable gland). The buzzer rings quickly during this step. After this second, the buzzer stops and rings slowly until the association is done. To switch off the device, use the same way by putting the magnet during 5 seconds. After this amount of time, the device rings 5 times slowly. The table below describes the actions to be performed on the reed switch to disable or enable the storage mode.

Action	Magnet	Buzzer
Switch ON (disable storage mode)	1 second
Switch OFF (enable storage mode)	5 seconds

When the sensor is trying to associate with a network, it emits the following sound:

Once the association is completed, the buzzer makes the following sound:

A reed switch (or magnetic switch) is available. A magnet can be used to activate it and perform specific actions on the sensor (switch off, switch on, reassociation…).

Configuration: "void" frames are sent every minute for 10 minutes.

Standard reports are disabled in this mode.

Configuration mode
Way to trigger it	One passage of the magnet near the reed switch or specific ZCL command
Way to stop it	Another passage of the magnet or specific ZCL command
Effects on the sensor
Duration	The configuration mode lasts 10 minutes

A reassociation procedure can be requested if no downlink frame is received by the sensor during a given periodicity (4 days by default) or if a given number (100 by default) is reached or in case of failure (no acknowledgement received) by sending an applicative frame to the sensor or via the sensor’s IHM.

The sensor keeps the AppEUi and DevAddr configured, Confirmed/Unconfirmed configuration and all applicative configurations. However, LoRaWAN configurations (channel, data rate…) are lost

ReAssociation Mode
Way to trigger it	Three passages of the magnet near the reed switch or ZCL command from LoRaWAN cluster.
Effects on the sensor

A factory reset is available on Watteco’s sensors. It deletes all the applicative settings saved in the flash memory (i.e. configured batches and reports will be deleted).

The sensor keeps the AppEUi and DevAddr configured. However, LoRaWAN configurations (channel, data rate…) and applicative configurations are lost.

Factory reset
Way to trigger it	Two quick passages and a very long passage (until the sensor rings for the reset) of the magnet near the reed switch

Applicative layer

Codecs are available to decode frames: Downloads

The Press'O device implements “Analog Input” cluster associated to its Inputs. The link between the connectors and the EndPoint is given below:

Connector	End Point	Cluster	Unit
V+ \| M/V-	0	Analog Input [4-20mA]	mA
V+ \| V- \|M/V-	1	Analog Input [0-10V]	mV

Since v3.x.2.yyyy, Press'O integrates threshold and actions on threshold. It manages until 10 differents actions. (configuration action) Press'O integrates the following clusters:

Cluster	Cluster name	Managed attributes
0x0000	Basic	All
0x0050	Configuration	All Threshold is available with 3 slots
0x8004	LoRaWAN	All
0x000C	Analog Input	All Threshold is available with 6 slots
0x000F	Binary Input	All Threshold is available with 4 slots

The power duration is configurable until 500ms.

Default configuration

A default configuration is set:

The device reports the 4-20 mA value every 24 hours (EndPoint 0 / Cluster Analog Input / Attribute PresentValue) and the 0-10V value (EndPoint 1 / Cluster Analog Input / Attribute PresentValue).

Every change made to the default configuration must comply with the legal duty cycle (for example, the most restrictive in the EU is 0.1%, which corresponds to approximately 1 frame per hour with SF12)

Measurement periodicity

The measurement periodicity depends on the minimum recording interval. If the value of the minimum is 0, then the periodicity is 1 second. If the value of the minimum is different than 0, then this value is the same as the periodicity.

Frame examples

All frames have to be sent on port 125

Batch report

It is recommended to use this default parameters:

	Label (size = 3)	resolution
4-20 mA	0	0.004
0-10V	1	1
Battery Level	2	100
External Power Level	3	100

• Configure a batch report on analog input and voltage battery:

Timestamp and record the Voltage of a 0-10V sensor with a resolution of 1mV, a value has to be saved at least every 35 minutes or on a 5mV increase. Timestamp and record the battery voltage with a resolution of 0.5V, a value has to be saved at least every 24 hours. All data have to be concatenated and sent every 24 hours at the most.

→The EndPoint of 0-10V is 1, cluster "analog input" is 0x000C, and the attribute "PresentValue" is 0x0055

The battery voltage: Cluster « Configuration » is 0x0050, and attribute « Node power descriptor » is 0x0006.

For analog input, the delta is 0x40a00000(5mV in single precision), and resolution 0x3f800000 (1mV in single precision).

For the disposable battery power voltage the delta has to be set to 500=0x01F4 (0.5V),the resolution to 100=0x0064 (100mV),

Two frames must be sent to configure this batch.
