1.1 Overview
AM100 series is a compact indoor ambience monitoring sensor including motion, humidity,
temperature, light, TVOC, CO2, barometric pressure for wireless LoRa network. AM100 series is a
battery powered device and is designed to be wall-mounted. It is equipped with NFC (Near Field
Communication) and can easily be configured via a smartphone or a PC software.
Sensor data are transmitted in real-time using standard LoRaWAN®protocol. LoRaWAN
enables encrypted radio transmissions over long distance while consuming very little power. The
user can obtain sensor data and view the trend of data change through Milesight IoT Cloud or
through the user's own Network Server.
1.2 Features
Robust LoRa connectivity for indoor or HVAC environments
Integrated multiple sensors like temperature, humidity, light, air quality, etc.
®
Easy configuration via NFC
Visual display via E-Ink screen
Standard LoRaWAN®support
