1. DESCRIPTION
The MCF-LW12TERWP is a IP67 battery powered sensor that reads temperature,
humidity and pressure 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. INSTALLATION
To ensure correct operation and reliable and consistent measurements, install the
MCF-LW12TERWP sensor away from direct sunlight and rain. The device must be
placed where the LoRaWAN signal coverage is good (SF = 7 optimal, SF = 12 weak).
The sensor can be installed on the wall or pole using the included accessories.

5. FIRST POWER-ON OF THE SENSOR
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 telephone (the exact position varies depending on the
model of the smartphone) to the sensor antenna, in the area shown in the figure.
In case of long period inactivity, if necessary, is possible to shut-off again the sensor to
prevent battery consumption, using the mcf88 APP.
