The LR-MB is a relay Wi-Fi - Bluetooth®/ LoRaTM sector, remotely controllable.
It can manage up to 25 « LR-IP » battery operated irrigation modules and/
or « LR-FL » owmeter modules from the LR range, from anywhere with a
simple internet connection.
PRESENTATION
Recommandations :
An LR product installation requires a pre-audit phase in order to check the
connection of the products in their intended positioning.
To optimize the connection between the « LR-MB » and the LR modules, it is
strongly recommended :
1 - Install LR modules in buried plastic manholes and to position them as
high as possible in the eye.
2 - Position the « LR-MB » or its remote antenna as high as possible, with a
clear environment.
3 - To test the LoRaTM connection between « LR-MB » and the modules using
the test tool present in the MySOLEM application. (see page 12)

3
INFORMATIONS
LoRa connection periodicity between « LR-MB » and his modules is 3
minutes.
Remotely, each modication of program or manual control will be eective
after a delay of 3 minutes.
On the « LR-FL » module :
- Recording of the count, every 15 minutes.
- Feedback, every 3 minutes.

MOUNTING
OUTDOOR ANTENNA
In the case of mounting the antenna outdoors with the optional extension
of 5 or 10 meters, we recommend protecting the antenna with a plastic tube
with an internal diameter of 15mm minimum. This tube will be clogged on
his upper part to protect the antenna from the rain. The cord will have to be
protected by a sheath.
INSTALLATION LR-IP/FL
Refer to the respective notices.
