Wireless Environmental Monitoring Node

Overview

The LORD MicroStrain® ENV-Link™ -Mini -LXRS™ is an environmental monitoring node designed to continuously acquire sensor data in an outdoor or harsh setting. The ENV-Link™ -Mini -LXRS™ accommodates a relative humidity/temperature (RHT) sensor, and
3 additional 0-5 VDC sensors. Possibilities include pyranometer (light measurement), soil moisture, leaf wetness, rain gauge, wind speed and direction, water level, barometric pressure, conductivity, strain gauges, thermocouples, etc. Multiple units may be deployed up to 2 kilometers from the wireless gateway, and data is either stored locally or forwarded to a cloud server, providing analysis tools, scripting, alerts, and downloads. Long-life batteries allow long term untended data acquisition.

At the heart of LORD MicroStrain® LXRS™ Wireless Sensor Networks are WSDA® gateways, which use our exclusive beaconing protocols to synchronize precision timekeepers embedded within each sensor node in the network. The WSDA® also coordinates data collection from all sensor nodes. Users can easily program each node on the scalable network for simultaneous, periodic, or burst mode sampling with our Node Commander® software, which automatically configures network radio communications to maximize the aggregate sample rate.
