1. Introduction
R313FC is a vibration alarm device for Netvox ClassA type device based on LoRaWAN open protocol. It can detect movement or
vibration duration of the device and is compatible with LoRaWAN protocol.
LoRa Wireless Technology:
LoRa is a wireless communication technology dedicated to long distance and low power consumption. Compared with other
communication methods, LoRa spread spectrum modulation method greatly increases to expand the communication distance.
Widely used in long-distance, low-data wireless communications. For example, automatic meter reading, building automation
equipment, wireless security systems, industrial monitoring. Main features include small size, low power consumption,
transmission distance, anti-interference ability and so on.
LoRaWAN:
LoRaWAN uses LoRa technology to define end-to-end standard specifications to ensure interoperability between devices and
gateways from different manufacturers.

Report
per Min Interval
Report
per Max Interval
The device will immediately send a version packet report and the attribute report data
The device sends data in the default configuration before any configuration is done.
Default setting:
MaxTime: Max Interval = 60 min = 3600s
MinTime: Min Interval = 60 min = 3600s
Battery Voltage Change = 0x01 (0.1V)
Threshold = 0x0003 (Threshold range: 0x0003-0x00FF; 0x0003 is the most sensitive.)
Deactivetime = 0x05 (Deactive time range: 0x01-0xFF)
Threshold:
Threshold = Critical value ÷ 9.8 ÷ 0.0625
*The gravitational acceleration at standard atmospheric pressure is 9.8 m/s2
*The scale factor of the threshold is 62.5 mg
R313FC vibration alarm:
The device detects sudden movement or vibration, and the quiescent state changes. The device waits for a certain period of
time (DeactiveTime) to enter the quiescent state and calculate the duration, sends a report of duration of vibrations, and
restarts the calculation for the next detection. If the vibration continues to occur within (DeactiveTime), the duration will be
continuously calculated till it enters the quiescent state.
Note:
The device report interval will be programmed based on the default firmware which may vary.
The interval between two reports must be the minimum time.

Note:
MaxTime=MinTime. Data will only be report according to MaxTime (MinTime) duration regardless BatteryVoltageChange value.

Notes:
1) The device only wakes up and performs data sampling according to MinTime Interval. When it is sleeping, it does not collect
data.
2) The data collected is compared with the last data reported. If the data change value is greater than the ReportableChange value,
the device reports according to MinTime interval. If the data variation is not greater than the last data reported, the device
reports according to MaxTime interval.
3)We do not recommend to set the MinTime Interval value too low. If the MinTime Interval is too low, the device wakes up
frequently and the battery will be drained soon.
4) Whenever the device sends a report, no matter resulting from data variation, button pushed or MaxTime interval, another cycle
of MinTime / MaxTime calculation is started.

6. Installation
8. Installation
1. Remove the 3M adhesive on the back of the Activity Timer
and attach the body to the surface of a smooth object (please
do not stick it to a rough surface to prevent the device from
falling off after a long time use).
Note：
Wipe the surface clean before installation to avoid dust on
the surface to affect the adhesion of the device.
Do not install the device in a metal shielded box or other
electrical equipment around it to avoid affecting the wireless
transmission of the device.
2. When the device detects a sudden movement or vibration of
the object (or electrical machinery).
Wait for a certain period of time (DeactiveTime- default 5
seconds , can be modified) to enter the quiescent state and it
sends a report of duration of vibrations, and restarts the
calculation for the next detection, the timer data will clear.
Note：
If the vibration continues to occur during this process
(quiescent state), the timer continue calculation until the
device enter the quiescent state.
Activity Timer (R313FC) is suitable for the following
scenarios:
Industrial Equipment
Industrial Instrument
Medical Instruments
When it necessary to detect the motor running time.

8. Important Maintenance Instruction
Kindly pay attention to the following in order to achieve the best maintenance of the product:
• Keep the device dry. Rain, moisture, or any liquid, might contain minerals and thus corrode electronic circuits. If the device gets
wet, please dry it completely.
• Do not use or store the device in dusty or dirty environment. It might damage its detachable parts and electronic components.
• Do not store the device under excessive heat condition. High temperature can shorten the life of electronic devices, destroy
batteries, and deform or melt some plastic parts.
• Do not store the device in places that are too cold. Otherwise, when the temperature rises to normal temperature, moisture will
form inside, which will destroy the board.
• Do not throw, knock or shake the device. Rough handling of equipment can destroy internal circuit boards and delicate
structures.
• Do not clean the device with strong chemicals, detergents or strong detergents.
• Do not apply the device with paint. Smudges might block in the device and affect the operation.
• Do not throw the battery into the fire, or the battery will explode. Damaged batteries may also explode.
All of the above applies to your device, battery and accessories. If any device is not working properly, please take it to the nearest
authorized service facility for repair.
