EM500 Series User Guide
1. Product Introduction 1.1 Overview
EM500 series is a sensor mainly used for outdoor environment through wireless LoRa network. EM500 device is battery powered and designed for multiple mounting ways. It is equipped with NFC (Near Field Communication) and can easily be configured by a smartphone or a PC software.
Sensor data are transmitted in real-time using standard LoRaWAN® protocol. LoRaWAN® enables encrypted radio transmissions over long distance while consuming very little power. The user can obtain sensor data and view the trend of data change through Milesight IoT Cloud or through the user's own Network Server.
1.2 Features
 Up to 11km communication range  Easy configuration via NFC  Standard LoRaWAN® support  Milesight IoT Cloud compliant  Low power consumption with 19000mAh replaceable battery
2. Hardware Introduction
EM500 series sensors is made up of a LoRa transceiver and a sensor. Among them, ultrasonic sensors and gas sensors are combined with LoRa transceiver.
