I. INTRODUCTION
RECYCLING: do not dispose of in a refuse dump or waste disposal bin. Comply with existing legislation for disposal.
Power source: this device is powered by a 3.6VDC type AA lithium battery (§ ch. V).
CE LABELING: this device is certified to conform to European regulations for electrical safety, flammability, disruptive
electromagnetic emissions, and immunity to environmental electrical disturbances.
Opens www.jri-mysirius.com.
FCC ID : W4512267
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not
cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause
undesired operation
In accordance with FCC requirements, changes or modifications not expressly approved by JRI could void the user's
authority to operate this product.
NOTE: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital device, pursuant to
Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference
when the equipment is operated in a commercial environment. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio
frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause harmful
interference to radio communications. Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause harmful
interference in which case the user will be required to correct the interference at his own expense.
The LoRa® SPY is a recorder capable of measuring 1 or 2 physical quantities (T / TH or other quantity depending
on the model) and transmitting by radio to monitoring software hosted on a platform. The radio transmission
uses the LoRa® long-distance network.
The LoRa® SPY (T0, T1 andT2) comply with EN 12830 and compatible with EN 13486 which
defines procedures for periodic verification.

b) Symbols
Do not use the device under conditions other than those described in the technical
characteristics
Risk of fire or explosion in the case of improper use:
- Recharging of the battery
- Short circuiting of the battery
If the device is used in a manner not specified by the manufacturer, the protection
provided by the device may be compromised.
II. INSTALLATION RECOMMENDATIONS
The LoRa® SPY is a recorder which communicates by radio with software hosted on a Web platform via the
LoRa® long-distance public network or private network using a LoRa® Gateway. To ensure optimal radio
transmission, a certain number of recommendations must be respected, as any wireless transmission is subject
to disturbances.
©JRI 3
a) Sources of disturbances or attenuation
The presence of obstacles in the wave path around the LoRa® SPY or between the LoRa® SPY and
the Gateway in case of use (wall, furniture, people…) or near the antenna.

A solid metal wall will not allow transmission by radio. A perforated metal wall will allow waves
to pass while attenuating them.
b) Positioning
The LoRa® SPY units can be placed either inside or outside the enclosures.
For installations outside the enclosure, mount the units sufficiently high on the walls to avoid
interference with obstacles and foot traffic.
The LoRa® SPY uses the LoRa® public network.
Never place the LoRa® SPY unit horizontally.
If difficulties persist use the LoRa® SPY with remote probe in order to position it in a zone of radio
coverage.
Also, some specific recommendations for exposure to magnetic fields must be followed : This
equipment complies with FCC’s radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled
environment under the following conditions :”
o This equipment must be installed and operated such that a minimum separation distance of 20cm
is maintained between the radiator (antenna) and user’s/nearby person’s body at all time.
o This transmitter must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or
transmitter
To ensure your safety during installation or an intervention on a device placed in a high
position, use proper equipment which is in good condition and provides adequate
stability, wear appropriate, non-slip shoes and install warning signs around the work
area if the intervention takes place in an area of foot traffic.
III. PRESENTATION
a) Control unit
Le LoRa®SPY T1 is equipped with a detector of presence or absence of light.
When the LoRa®SPY unit is enclosed (in the dark) the measurements are no longer
displayed (wheaeas the battery level, the RSSI and the network indicators still are) and
its status LED continues to flash.

All our products are in compliance with the following standards:
VIII. MAINTENANCE
Clean the device with a soft cloth, either dry or slightly moistened with water. To remove stubborn dust,
use a cloth soaked in a diluted, non-abrasive detergent. Then wipe carefully with a soft dry cloth.
Never use benzene, thinner, alcohol or any type of solvent, which can cause discoloration or deformation
of the surfaces.

X. GUARANTEE
Our material is guaranteed for one year, parts and labor, against any manufacturing defect, functional
failure or abnormal wear. This guarantee covers only the replacement of parts recognized to be defective
as well as the repair of the material in question returned shipping paid to our workshops, and excludes all
damages and interest or incidental expenses.
The starting point of the guarantee is the date of invoice of the concerned product. The invoice must be
provided for any request for application of the guarantee. Repairs under guarantee in no way extend the
guarantee period accorded to the product at the time of sale. Deterioration due to any abnormal usage or
to storage under adverse environmental conditions is excluded from our guarantee.
XI. MAINTENANCE CONTRACT
How best to optimize your radiofrequency installation?
Radiofrequency measurement systems communicate through Hertzian waves. Many factors (change in
installation, moving, supplemental wall, interference with another radio system…) can nonetheless modify
the radio pathway previously defined. The use of radiofrequency thus requires periodic monitoring by
recognized specialists.
It is for this reason that JRI has developed for you the maintenance contract. We simplify your procedures
by offering you a fully-integrated solution. This global service offer includes both maintenance and a
metrological service, ensuring the optimum functioning of your devices or of your installation.
You'll no longer have to worry about the maintenance of your devices!
This maintenance contract allows you to benefit, for a minimum period of 2 years, from a variety of
services such as:
- annual or biannual verification of the material
- an extension of the guarantee
- telemaintenance
- telephone assistance +33 (0) 892 680 933 (0,282 € HT/min)
- replacement of the material onsite or by a return to the factory
- verification of measurement accuracy (metrological certificate)
- battery replacement
- access to new software versions
- intervention within 48 working hours following identification of the fault by our experts
XII. ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION
JRI recommends to its customers the disposal of their unusable and/or irreparable measurement and
recording materials in a manner compatible with the protection of the environment. As the production of
waste materials cannot be avoided, these should be reused through the recycling process best adapted to
the considered materials and to the protection of the environment.
RoHS Directive
The RoHS European directive regulates and limits the presence of dangerous substances in
electronic and electric equipment (EEE).
All new electronic equipment designed, developed and manufactured by JRI are in compliance
with the aforementioned Directive 2002/95/CE.
