WisBlock Kit 1

Note:

• If a non-rechargable battery is used with WisBlock Base Board it has to be unplugged before connecting the USB cable to the port on the board in order to configure the device. Not doing so might damage the battery and cause damage to the battery and board.
• If a battery is used with WisBlock Base Board, please check that the battery connector has the correct polarity. You can check the required polarity in our Documentation Center.

Product Description

WisBlock Kit 1 consists of a Sensor Node to measures air temperature, air humidity, barometric pressure, and environment luminosity values. Transmitting data periodically to a LoRaWan® server.

Application

WisBlock Kit 1 is used to track and monitor the weather in the location you want.

Use WisBlock Kit 1 to measure air temperature, air humidity, barometric pressure, and environment luminosity values. With WisBlock Kit 1 you can gather the data that you need to learn more about the weather conditions in your chosen location. This kit can also transmit whatever data it acquires to a LoRaWAN® server regularly.

WisBlock Kit 1 uses a sturdy enclosure that helps it withstand weather complications without a hitch.
