What You Need

LoRaWAN vibration sensor (any ISO 10816-compatible)
LoRaWAN gateway (if not already deployed)

Customer provides:

  • Sensor mounting hardware
  • LoRaWAN Network Server access

Physical Connection

  1. 1

    Mount sensor

    Attach vibration sensor to machine housing using magnetic mount or adhesive. Place on the bearing housing or motor frame for best readings.

  2. 2

    Verify gateway range

    Ensure the LoRaWAN gateway is within range (typically 50-500m indoors, up to 15km line-of-sight). Check RSSI on first uplink.

Machine Configuration

  1. 1

    Register on gateway

    Add the sensor's DevEUI, AppEUI, and AppKey to your LoRaWAN Network Server (ChirpStack, TTN, or built-in). Use OTAA activation.

  2. 2

    Configure reporting interval

    Set the uplink interval (typically 10-60 min for vibration). Lower interval = more battery drain.

Verification

  1. 1

    Check uplink

    Verify the gateway shows the sensor as 'joined' and data packets are arriving.

  2. 2

    Verify in Flowstate

    Check the Operations dashboard for the new vibration sensor. Metrics should include velocity (mm/s) and/or acceleration (g).

Available Metrics (4)

Vibration velocity (mm/s RMS)
Acceleration (g peak)
Temperature (°C)
Battery level (%)
