CLIMATE MC-LR-THERMOS Wireless Thermostat User Manual

Behavior  
Start-up behavior  
Using multiple energy  
The device starts when you expose it to light or press the Reset  
button on the back.  
The Wireless Thermostat has three options for power supply:  
- Organic Solar Panel  
At startup, the device measures the voltage of the supercapacitor,  
which is storing the energy harvested by the solar panel. If the  
voltage is within the working range of the device, the device will  
initiate a LoRaWAN Join-Request procedure on SF9.  
- USB-C  
- 2 or 4 AA Batteries (1.5VDC each)  
You can use both solar and USB-C or AA batteries at the same  
time. If you use USB-C or AA batteries, the super capacitor will be  
charged and the solar harvesting will always be with highest  
priority.  
Collecting and storing energy  
The energy harvested by the Organic Solar Panel is stored in a  
supercapacitor. If the supercapacitor is discharged for some  
reason, the device will wake-up again when it has harvested  
enough power so that the voltage of the supercapacitor is within  
the working voltage of the device.  
Example reasons for preliminary discharge can be:  
- Device installed, but not provisioned in a LoRaWAN Network  
Server.  
Data transmissions  
Once joined, the device will execute two types of transmissions:  
- Periodic, as configured  
- Immediate, when something changed - e.g. target temperature  
changed or movement detected in the room.  
All transmissions are subject to complying with the duty-cycle  
limitations of LoRaWAN end-devices.  
- Gateway not present.  
- The device has been stored in packaging for too long.  
If you want to get started quickly, you can use the USB-C port to  
charge the capacitor from a 5VDC power supply, which takes  
approx 20 minutes.  
The time it takes to recharge will depend on the lighting  
conditions, but in a brightly lit office with 1000 lux, it should take  
around 12 hours.

Installation  
We recommend installing the device in an open environment  
(e.g. not in a recess) at 1.5m height. Do not install the device  
near big metal items as it will worsen the RF performance. Use  
double-sided tape to attach it to the surface or screws and  
dowels to attach the anti-theft bracket in a more permanent  
manner.  
Once you’ve attached the anti-theft bracket, place the device  
on top so the two mounting points on the bracket correspond  
with the device’s plastic. Slide down and secure with the  
security bolt on the bottom.  
If you decide to insert AA 1.5VDC batteries into the device, you  
can use either 2 or 4 batteries.  
We recommend using Energizer Ultimate Lithium AA L91. You  
can insert 4 batteries as shown on the device’s plastic or 2  
batteries as shown in the picture below.  
When using 2 or 4 AA batteries, please make sure that all  
batteries are new. If one of the batteries has lower voltage, it’s  
not possible to use the full energy capacitance. That challenge  
is valid for all devices operated by multiple battery cells, e.g.  
your TV remote.
