1. Description
The MCF-LW12TERPM is a solar powered sensor that reads temperature, humidity, pressure and PM
(PM1, PM2.5, PM10) and sends collected data over the LoRaWAN® network. Ideally suited for a wide
range of applications such as weather stations, urban monitoring, air quality, industrial,
environmental or farming projects.

2.3 Configuration
To deploy the sensor, download the latest LoRa Tool Android App to setup LoRaWAN® credentials
and other preferences :
Always validate your settings by reading the NFC data after the sensor has restarted.
Configuration can be done only via NFC.
No USB port available for the user.
2.4 Power ON/OFF
The sensor is shipped completely off to prevent battery consumption during storage. It is therefore
necessary to carry out a first power-on prior to commissioning.
Move the NFC antenna of the mobile (the exact position varies depending on the model of the
smartphone) to the sensor antenna, in the area shown in the figure:

At the first power-on, sensor will take from 1 to 5 minutes to give an effective measure of PM.
In case of long period inactivity, if necessary, is possible to shut-off again the sensor to prevent
battery consumption, via downlink or with LoRa Tool App:

Period is the interval (in minutes) between one measure and the next one. The sensor sends one
measures for every transmission. Value can be between 15 and 65535 minutes (default: 30 minutes).
Period interval can be set with App or with downlink command.
3.2 Temperature
3.3 Pressure
3.3.1 Altitude compensation
When the sensor is not installed at the sea level, the reading of barometric pressures at other
elevations must be compensated. Set the right altitude value with LoRa Tool app:
Value can be from -300 to 3000 meters.
Altitude can also be set with downlink command.
