Whakaahuatanga Hua
The WakeCap Anchor Node (WC-NODE-A) is a fixed wireless mesh router designed for deployment on construction and industrial sites. It enables network coverage extension and improves positioning accuracy of helmet and asset nodes within the 2.4 GHz WakeCap mesh. Anchors are strategically installed based on project size, coverage, and density requirements.

Nga tikanga tiaki
Preventive Guidelines
- Inspect housing regularly for cracks, water ingress, or corrosion.
- Verify gasket integrity during inspections.
- Avoid exposure to solvents, oils, or high-pressure water jets.
- Confirm NFC readability and dashboard reporting during site audits.
Whakakapinga Pūhiko
Battery Type: 3.6V 19Ah ER34615 Lithium D-cell (non-rechargeable)
Estimated Life: 10–12 years depending on reporting interval
Hipanga Whakakapi:
- Move device to a designated safe maintenance area.
- Unscrew the four stainless steel M4 hex screws on the enclosure (torque 1.5 Nm).
- Remove enclosure cap and carefully disconnect PCB JST battery connector.
- Remove depleted D-cell.
- Insert new D-cell in correct polarity orientation.
- Reconnect JST cable to PCB battery connector.
- Ensure gasket is properly seated before resealing the enclosure.
- Tighten M4 screws to 1.5 Nm torque.
- Verify boot-up by tapping the device with NFC to read status.
Notes: Use ESD-safe tools and dispose of lithium batteries properly.
Nga Tohutohu horoi
- Use soft cloth with mild soap and water.
- Do not use solvents, alcohol-based cleaners, or abrasive pads.
- Ensure humidity membrane is kept clear of debris.
Ngā Whakahōu Firmware
Firmware is not user-updatable. If required, updates are deployed remotely via the mesh.
For update verification, contact WakeCap support.
Tohatoha Raparongoā
| Tohutohu | Take pea | Rongoā |
| Anchor offline | Pau te puhiko | Replace D-cell (Section 4.2) |
| Out-of-network coverage | Reposition closer to anchors/gateway | |
| Water ingress/hardware fault | Quarantine unit, contact support | |
| He tohu ngoikore | Poor antenna placement | Reinstall higher, away from metal |
| Te mahi mokowhiti | Low battery / unstable link | Check the dashboard, replace battery |
| High interference | Review anchor density, reposition | |
| NFC not reading | Dirt or surface obstruction | Clean NFC area |
| Te kino o te Antenna | Inspect, replace if needed |
Haumaru me te Tautukunga
- Ingress Protection: pending
- Compliance: pending
- Battery Safety: Use only ER34615 D-cell. Do not short-circuit, recharge, or expose to fire.
Tauākī Whakatūpato FCC
Kua whakamatauria enei taputapu, kua kitea e u ana ki nga rohe mo tetahi taputapu matihiko Class B, i runga i te wahanga 15 o nga Ture FCC. I hangaia enei rohe ki te whakarato i te whakamarumaru tika mai i nga pokanoa kino i roto i te whakaurunga whare. Ka whakaputa, ka whakamahi, ka taea e tenei taputapu te whakaputa i te hiko auau reo irirangi, a, ki te kore e whakauruhia ka whakamahia i runga i nga tohutohu, ka raru pea nga korero reo irirangi. Heoi, karekau he taurangi ka kore e puta he pokanoa ki tetahi whakaurunga. Mena ka raru nga taputapu i runga i te reo irirangi, pouaka whakaata ranei, ka taea te whakatau ma te whakaweto i nga taputapu, ka akiakihia te kaiwhakamahi ki te ngana ki te whakatika i te pokanoa ma te kotahi, neke atu ranei o nga tikanga e whai ake nei:
- Whakahoahoa, nukuhia ranei te antenna whiwhi.
- Whakanuia te wehenga i waenga i te taputapu me te kaiwhiwhi.
- Honoa te taputapu ki tetahi putanga i runga i te ara iahiko rereke mai i tera e honoa ana te kaiwhiwhi.
- Korero atu ki te kaihoko, ki tetahi tohunga hangarau reo irirangi/TV mo te awhina.
Tupato: Ko nga huringa me nga whakarereketanga ki tenei taputapu kaore i tino whakaaetia e te kaiwhakanao ka whakakore i to mana whakahaere i tenei taputapu.
Ka tutuki tenei taputapu ki te wahanga 15 o nga Ture FCC. Ko te mahi kei raro i nga tikanga e rua e whai ake nei: (1) Kare pea tenei taputapu e whakararu kino, a (2) me whakaae tenei taputapu ki nga pokanoa ka tae mai, tae atu ki te pokanoa ka puta he mahi kino.
Kua arotakehia te taputapu ki te whakatutuki i nga whakaritenga whanui RF.
