4G-LoRaTM Gateway

Toro Tempus Air RS4

PRESENTATION

Tempus Air RS4 is a 4G-LoRaTM gateway that allows data transmission between the MyToroTempus application or platform and Tempus Air modules (CT, MS, PS, MV).

Tempus Air RS4 connects to the MyToroTempus, application or web platform, via Internet in 4G.

Tempus Air RS4 can communicate via LoRaTM (long range radio connection) with up to 25 modules between Tempus Air CT / MV / MS / PS. Using Tempus Air MS

(Multi Sensor module) and Tempus Air PS (Pressure Sensor module), always allows the user to have ﬁeld data feedback and safety threshold alerts. Tempus Air

RS4 can be powered by a 230VAC power supply or a solar panel. It has a buer battery to ensure the continuity of its operation for 3/4 days without any power

supply (depending on the conditions of use).

The frequency of 4G data communication:

Thanks to its SIM card, the Tempus Air RS4 communicates periodically over 4G with the MyToroTempus platform in order to:

• Transmit the informations to Tempus Air CT, Tempus Air MV.

(e.g.: irrigation programs, manual controls, ON / OFF, etc ...)

• Feed back information from Tempus Air MS, Tempus Air PS

(e.g.: battery level, water volumes, sensor alerts, etc.)

The frequency is 24 times per day. Communications are conﬁgured at hourly intervals.

To activate your SIM card, send the subscription request to the dealer, with the data of your Tempus Air RS4, the data of the Sim Card and the payment

receipt

Once the payment has been received and the SIM card activated, the Tempus Air RS4 will be operational and will be able to connect to the MyToroTempus platform.

INTRODUCTION

During the ﬁrst installation or if a long time has passed without having had a charge / discharge cycle, it is necessary to charge the Tempus Air RS4 battery, turned

o, for 24 hours with 230VAC power supply.

Follow the step 1 to wire the 230 VAC power supply for battery charging.

Step 4

LoRaTM TEST CONNECTION

If the association of the modules is carried out before the ﬁnal installation of the Tempus Air RS4, this connection test can be used to validate the positioning of

the latter by going to temporarily install the Tempus Air RS4 in its intended location then by going to position a module in each of the manholes to verify good

communication with the Tempus Air RS4.

The connection test can also allow you to verify at any time the correct operation of the LoRaTM radio between your module and the Tempus Air RS4.

(Example: the product fell into the upside-down manhole and no longer communicates with the Tempus Air RS4).

To test the LoRaTM connection, do the following:

1. Enter the Tempus Air

module in Bluetooth® Then in the parameters

(small pencil at the top right) 3. Push the red button to test

the connection LoRaTM

4. The message indicate that

theLoRaTM connection between

theTempus Air RS4 and

themodule is reliable.

If the connection is not established, a "No connection established" message appears. Repeat this test several times to conﬁrm that the connection cannot be made.

In this case, the distance between the Tempus Air RS4 and the Tempus Air module will need to be reduced.
