iO-LORA Wireless Expander
1Description
iO-LORA wireless expanders with RF-LORA transceiver increase the number of inputs and outputs of the "FLEXi" SP3 security
panel using two-way RF communication.
Temperature sensors (up to 4 pcs.) and readers of contact ("iButton") keys can be connected to the iO-LORA expander. The
PGM output (relay) of the expander can be remotely controlled (on/off) by various electrical devices. iO-LORA has one digital
input.
Features
Communication:
Line-of-sight wireless range up to 1000 m.
Up to 8 iO-LORA wireless expanders can be connected to the "FLEXi" SP3
control panel.
Inputs and outputs:
Bus "1-Wire" is intended for connection of temperature sensors (up to 4
pcs.) and readers of contact ("iButton") keys.
1 input, of selectable type: NC, NO.
1 output (relay).
Connection:
The iO-LORA wireless expander is connected to the "FLEXi" SP3 control
panel via the RF-LORA transceiver.

2Wiring schematics
2.1 Fastening
1. Remove the top lid.
2. Remove the PCB board.
3. Fasten the base of the case in the desired place
using screws.
4. Reinsert the board.
5. Close the top lid.
2.2 Schematic for connecting the power supply
2.3 Schematics for connecting input
iO-LORA has one input. Input type can be set: NC, NO.
2.4 Schematic for connecting a temperature sensor
Temperature sensors should be connected according to the
given schematic. Maxim®/Dallas® DS18S20, DS18B20
temperature sensors (up to 4) can be connected to the iO-LORA
wireless expander.
If a wire longer than 0,5 meters is used to connect a temperature
sensor, we recommend using twisted pair cable (UTP4x2x0,5 or
STP4x2x0,5).

iO-LORA Wireless Expander
The +5V terminal on the board is for supplying devices connected to the "1-Wire" data bus with 5 V DC voltage. The maximum
output current is 0,2 A. The output is protected from overload. If the maximum allowed current is exceeded, the power will
automatically be switched off. The "FLEXi" SP3 control panel automatically recognizes and links connected temperature
sensors.
2.5 Schematics for connecting CZ-Dallas reader
The CZ-Dallas iButton key reader connects to the iO-LORA using the "1 Wire" data bus. The length of the wires connecting to
the data bus can be up to 30 m.

Note:
An RF-LORA transceiver must be connected to the "FLEXi"SP3 security panel and then up to 8 pcs. can be connected
iO-LORA wireless expanders.
It is recommended to use a twisted pair cable (UTP4x2x0.5 or STP4x2x0.5) to connect the temperature sensor.
CZ-Dallas iButton key readers and temperature sensors must be connected to "1-Wire" bus.
