'''Escort i-5 Indicator''' (hereinafter - ‘Escort i-5’, ‘i-5’, ‘Indicator’, ‘Device’) is designed to connect the wireless devices manufactured by Escort Monitoring Systems Group (hereinafter - '''‘Escort Group’''') with GPS trackers/gateways and other compatible devices, to collect the data of the wireless and wired devices by Escort Group and display it on its five seven-segment displays.<br />
<br />
The wireless Escort BLE sensors can be paired with the '''i-5''' via '''Bluetooth Low Energy'''. The sensors’ readings (such as fuel level, temperature, humidity, angle readings, etc.) are transmitted via the '''Bluetooth Low Energy''' interface and in accordance with the Escort BLE data communication protocol<br />
<br />
'''Escort i-5''' can poll (send data requests) external devices via the RS-485 and RS-232 interfaces in accordance with the LLS data communication protocol in case there are no other devices that poll the devices connected to the same RS-485 or RS-232 network. In other cases the Indicator can be configured to ‘listen’ the communication between a polling device and polled devices (such as wired sensors).<br />
<br />
'''Escort i-5''' can transmit the data it receives from Escort BLE sensors via Bluetooth Low Energy interface to an external device once polled via the RS-485 or RS-232 interface. In 2...5 ms upon receiving a request from such external device, the i-5 transmits the data previously transmitted to it by Escort BLE sensors in accordance with the LLS data communication protocol. Escort i-5 can respond to the requests sent only to the RS-485 and RS-232 network addresses saved in its memory.<br />
<br />

<br />
== <big>'''i-5 installation'''</big> ==<br />
To mount the i-5 onto a surface, drill 4 orifices as shown on the Figure 4 at a spot, where it will be possible to connect the wires of the i-5 to an external device or devices and a power supply and where the readings displayed by the Indicator will be clearly visible. <br />
<br />
Mount and fix the holder with the self-tapping screws. Place the Escort i-5 into the holder. Figure 3 demonstrates an example of the suggested installation. Figure 4 provides the fitting dimensions.<br />
[[File:Qweqwe.png|center|frameless|695x695px]]<br />
<br />
= '''How to connect i-5 via app''' =<br />
Make sure that your smartphone supports '''BLUETOOTH LE''' (BLE 4.0 or higher) by checking its documents. Enable the geolocation service in the settings of your smartphone. <br />
<br />
Install and run the '''Escort Configurator app'''.<br />
<br />
On the start screen (Fig. 5) select “Sensor settings”, then select the model of the Device (Fig. 6). <br />
[[File:Qa.png|center|frameless|739x739px]] <br />
<br />
When firing the app up for the 1st time, make sure to give it access to the geolocation service. This access is asked for only once. This step is obligatory to connect any BLE devices. <br />
<br />
On the '''List of available devices''' screen (Fig. 7), tap on the required device or search for it by entering the last six digits of the serial number of the device into the search box (Fig. 8) for example '''I5_100320''' (in case of the i-5). <br />
[[File:Imageуцй.png|center|frameless|724x724px]]<br />
<br />
'''IMPORTANT! To activate the Escort i-5 and then to detect, connect and configure it by means of the app, be sure to connect it to a power supply. The wiring diagram is shown on the Fig 9. The voltage range is provided in the Table 1 of the present manual.'''<br />
[[File:Dasd.png|center|frameless|718x718px]]<br />
<br />
<br />
After the i-5 is connected, it’s configuration is displayed on the screen (Fig. 10). At the top of the screen, you can see the device name and the current FW version (Fig. 10, 1).<br />
[[File:Imagedsad.png|center|frameless|718x718px]]<br />
<br />
== <big>'''Password'''</big> ==<br />
To prevent any attempts to tamper with the settings of the Indicator i-5 by any unauthorized third party, the sensor must be protected with a password.<br />
<br />
When you connect the i-5 for the 1st time and try and change any settings in its configuration, you will be required to set up a new password (Fig. 11).<br />
<br />
'''Attention! There’s no default password on the i-5. The password is set up only when the Indicator is connected via the app for the 1st time by any user.'''<br />
[[File:Csd.png|center|frameless|694x694px]]<br />
<br />
After setting the password and whenever you try and change any i-5’s settings, you will be required to enter the previously set password (Fig. 12).<br />
<br />
= <big>'''Pairing BLE sensors'''</big> =<br />
To pair any Escort BLE sensor (TD, DU, TH) you need to tap '''Connect sensors''' (Fig.13, '''2'''). <br />
[[File:Adsdas.png|thumb]]<br />
Then press the '''"+"''' button to add a new sensor (Fig. 14).<br />
<br />
[[File:Imagehhg.png|center|frameless|726x726px]]<br />
<br />
Then select the '''Wireless option''' and either enter the MAC (ENTER THE ‘:’ SIGNS MANUALLY TOO) or the sensor’s model letter and the last 6 digits of its serial number (Fig. 16) and press the '''‘Connect’''' button. Both MAC (Fig. 17, '''1''' and Fig. 18, '''1''') and the sensor’s serial number (Fig. 17, '''2''' and Fig. 18, '''2''') can be found on its head . Or select you can scan the QR code on the sensor’s head to pair it with the Indicator. To do so, press the scan button (Fig. 15, '''2''') and scan the QR code with your smartphone.<br />
[[File:Image2312.png|center|frameless|714x714px]]<br />

To delete, swipe the sensor to the left and click remove and then disconnect .<br />
<br />
[[File:GIF 20250213 110701 063.gif]]<br />
<br />
== <big>'''Tank calibration table for TD-BLE'''</big> ==<br />
If you just pair BLE or wired TD sensors with the Indicator i-5, the latter will be displaying the level values from 1 to 1023 or from 1 to 4095. In order to get the Indicator display the liters/gallons, you need to save a tank calibration table in the i-5’s memory for every TD sensor.<br />
<br />
'''Attention! The table must contain not more than 50 lines!'''<br />
<br />
Once the sensor(s) is paired with the Indicator, tap '''Connect sensors''' (Fig. 45, '''2''') and then tap on the sensor to which you need to add the table (Fig. 46).<br />
[[File:Imageghjghj.png|center|frameless|752x752px]]<br />
<br />
<br />
Next, you can either import the table from the file saved on your smartphone or enter the table manually. To do so, open the sensor’s configuration and tap '''Start tank calibration''' (Fig. 47, '''1''').<br />
[[File:Image,jhkh.png|center|frameless|750x750px]]<br />
<br />
<br />
To import the table from the file, select the '''Import from file option''' (Fig. 48). Then find the table you need on your smartphone and select it (Fig. 49). You can then modify the table should it be necessary. Press Save to save the table in the Indicator’s memory (Fig. 50). Repeat the procedure for each sensor.<br />
[[File:Image23123.png|center|frameless|752x752px]]<br />
<br />
<br />
You can modify the table if you press any cell (Fig. 51). Also, you can set the '''Portion''' (in liters/or gallons) and then add new lines to the table (Fig. 52). To delete any line, press and hold it then swipe to the left and tap '''Delete''' (Fig. 53).<br />
[[File:Image5464.png|center|frameless|753x753px]]<br />
[[File:Image2435t2g2.png|center|frameless|714x714px]]<br />
<br />
<br />
To enter the table manually, select the corresponding option on the screen shown on the Figure 48, then set the portion (Fig. 52), add as many portions as you need and edit the level values as per the table you have and need to upload into the Indicator’s memory (Fig. 51). You can delete any line by pressing, holding it and swiping to the left and then pressing '''Delete'''. Be sure to tap '''Save''' to save the table and/or any changes made to it<br />
[[File:Imagedasd2341.png|thumb]]<br />
To apply the table, be sure to activate the '''Use tank calibration table''' switcher (Fig. 54.1, '''2'''). To check the currently saved table tap: <br />

<br />
== <big>'''Retransmission of BLE sensors data'''</big> ==<br />
The Indicator i-5 can retransmit the data it receives from the paired Escort BLE sensors (TD, TH, DU) to an external device (GPS tracker/gateway/other compatible device) via the RS-485 interface.<br />
<br />
To enable the transmission of the BLE sensor’s data, go to the Connect sensors menu (Fig. 69, '''2'''), then select the sensor whose data you need transmitted to an external device and tap '''RS settings'''. (Fig 70, '''4''').<br />
[[File:Image312s21s1.png|center|frameless|699x699px]]<br />
<br />
<br />
Select the pair of parameters you need transmitted and switch that pair on (Fig. 71). Then assign this pair of parameters a network address (Fig. 72).<br />
[[File:Imaged1c2.png|center|frameless|723x723px]]<br />
<br />
<br />
'''Attention! It is impossible to reuse the network addresses that are already occupied either by a different pair of parameters of the same sensor or a pair of parameters of another BLE or wired sensor.'''<br />
<br />
The wiring diagram (Fig. 73) demonstrates how to connect the Indicator i-5, wired sensor(s) and an external device by means of the RS-485 interface. It is possible to use the i-5 in the Passive RS-485 mode so that it could listen to the responses of the wired sensors that they transmit upon receiving requests for data from an external device and respond to the requests sent by the external device with the BLE sensors’ data the i-5 receives via BLE connection.<br />
[[File:Imagev33v.png|center|frameless|727x727px]]<br />
<br />
= <big>'''Pairing wired sensors (tracker/gateway is used)'''</big> =<br />
If you need to connect the i-5 between a GPS tracker/gateway (or other compatible device) and a wired sensor (or several sensors), you need to connect the sensor as shown on the wiring diagram below, pair the sensor with the indicator and configure the Indicator i-5 to operate in the RS-485 '''Passive mode''' (the default mode).<br />
<br />
To pair a wired sensor (TD, DU-180, DGV-200, ALS) you need to tap Connect sensors (Fig. 34, 2). <br />
[[File:Imageeqwesc21.png|thumb]]<br />
Then press the '''"+"''' button to add a new sensor (Fig. 35). <br />
<br />
[[File:Imageeqwe1212.png|center|frameless|668x668px]]<br />
<br />
Then select the '''‘Wired’''' option, enter the network address (the value can be from 1 to 255) and press '''‘Connect’''' (Fig. 36). If the i-5 is not configured to operate in the RS-485 '''Active mode''' or if there is no GPS tracker/gateway or other device that could request the data from the sensor so that the i-5 could listen to the sensor’s response and show its reading, the level of the wired sensor will be displayed as 0 (Fig. 37).<br />
<br />
The network address of the sensor can be configured in the Escort configurator for PC or in the app (Fig. 38 and Fig. 39).<br />
<br />
If you need to connect several wired sensors, repeat the procedure described above.<br />
<br />
'''Attention! Every sensor connected via the RS-485 interface must have different network addresses.'''<br />
[[File:Imageeqwe121.png|center|frameless|732x732px]]<br />
[[File:Imageewqe1231.png|center|frameless|734x734px]]<br />
<br />
'''Attention! All wired sensors that are not the wired Escort TD sensors (such as DU-180, DGV-200, ALS or the wired sensors of other brands that support the LLS data communication protocol) will still be treated as the TD sensors.'''<br />
<br />
If the Indicator i-5 is connected “between” the wired sensor(s) and the GPS tracker/gateway or other compatible device, its operating mode must be the '''Passive''' one. To select it, open the mode settings (Fig. 40, 4). The Passive mode is selected by default. If it was changed earlier, select the '''Passive mode''' and press '''Save''' to apply change (Fig. 41).<br />
[[File:Image3123dqw.png|center|frameless|738x738px]]<br />
<br />
<br />
If the sensor is connected to the tracker and the tracker is receiving the data from it and the Indicator is connected in accordance with the wiring diagram (Fig. 44), you will see the sensor’s readings in the app as well (Fig. .42 and Fig. 43).<br />

<br />
If you need to connect your wired sensor(s) TD-100, TD-150, TD-500, TD-600, DGV-200, DU-180, ALS only to the i-5, i.e. there will be no GPS tracker or gateway to which the sensor(s) will be connected, you need to pair the sensor with the i-5 and then select the '''Active mode''' in the mode settings and configure the interval at which the sensor(s) will be polled (will be sent requests for data to).<br />
[[File:D12e13.png|thumb]]<br />
To pair a wired sensor (TD, DU-180, DGV-200, ALS) you need to tap '''Connect sensors''' (Fig. 21, '''2'''). Then press the '''"+"''' (Рис. 14) button to add a new sensor (Fig. 22). <br />
<br />
[[File:Image1231.png|center|frameless|763x763px]]<br />
<br />
Then select the '''‘Wired’''' option, enter the network address (the value can be from 0 to 255) and press ‘Connect’ (Fig. 23). If the i-5 is not configured to operate in the RS-485 Active mode or if there is no GPS tracker/gateway or other device that could request the data from the sensor so that the i-5 could listen to the sensor’s response and show its reading, the level of the wired sensor will be displayed as 0 (Fig. 24).<br />
<br />
The network address of the sensor can be configured in the Escort configurator for PC or in the app (Fig. 25 and Fig. 26).<br />
<br />
If you need to connect several wired sensors, repeat the procedure described above.<br />
<br />
'''Attention! Every sensor connected via the RS-485 interface must have different network addresses.'''<br />

'''Attention! All wired sensors that are not the wired Escort TD sensors (such as DU-180, DGV-200, ALS or the wired sensors of other brands that support the LLS data communication protocol) will still be treated as the TD sensors.'''<br />
<br />
To make the i-5 send requests for data to the wired sensor(s) connected to it, open the mode settings (Fig. 27, '''4'''). The Passive mode is selected by default (Fig. 28).<br />
[[File:Image53453.png|center|frameless|750x750px]]<br />
<br />
<br />
Select the '''Active mode''' then enter the interval in seconds from 1 to 65 and press Set (Fig. 29). Then press '''Save''' to apply the changes (Fig. 30).<br />
[[File:Imagedasdcxzc222.png|center|frameless|745x745px]]<br />
<br />
After the Active RS-485 mode is selected and the interval is set, you will see the readings of your wired sensor(s) in the app (Fig. 31, 32) if it was connected to the i-5 in accordance with the wiring diagram (Fig. 33).<br />

= '''Configuring Indicator’s screen''' =<br />
Once all sensors are paired with the '''Indicator i-5''', you need to configure what data will be displayed on its physical screen.<br />
<br />
There are 10 virtual Windows that you can switch between by pressing the buttons of the indicator. Then, the i-5 displayed the number of the Window first and, in a few seconds, the sensor’s reading is displayed. If you don’t press any button, the same sensor’s data will be on the screen till you press a button.<br />
<br />
'''Attention! You don’t need to press the buttons with force. Press a button lightly and then let go. The buttons react only after you let go.<br />
<br />
'''If you connect the i-5 for the first time, the screen will not show anything unless you pair a sensor with it and press one of the buttons of the Indicator.'''<br />
<br />
'''Inside the application, the level of the sensor will always be displayed without the use of a calibration table, so the actual data on the I-5 screen and inside the application may differ.'''<br />

= <big>'''Definition and Purpose of a Controller'''</big> =<br />
'''SOKOL-K1''' controllers (hereinafter referred to as the '''controller, SOKOL-K1, or the product''') are designed to collect and process environmental meteorological data, store and analyze the entire volume of information in real time, and transmit it via the '''GSM''' network to a server at specified intervals; they also support '''Modbus''' polling and other data retrieval methods.<br />
<br />
'''Automatic measurement''' of meteorological parameters: air temperature, atmospheric pressure, relative humidity, wind speed, and wind direction is performed using the anemorumbometer [[Anemometer Sokol-A|'''Sokol - A''']] (hereinafter referred to as '''“Sokol-A,” anemometer''') and the '''[[Sokol-TDV meter|Sokol-TDV]]''' sensor (hereinafter referred to as '''“Sokol-TDV,” TDV sensor''').<br />

= <big>'''Charging the battery, external power supply'''</big> =<br />
Before putting the controller into operation, as well as when '''the battery is low''', it must be '''fully charged.''' The battery installed in the controller is charged from '''three power sources:'''<br />
<br />
− a '''solar''' panel (sold separately as an accessory for the Sokol-K1 Controller);<br />
<br />
− via the '''USB''' port from an external power source;<br />
<br />
− via the '''controller’s 12V port''' from an external power source.<br />
<br />
'''The solar''' panel is an alternative power source that allows the controller to operate in standalone mode. '''The USB and 12V external power''' connectors are designed to efficiently charge the controller’s built-in rechargeable battery. To do this, connect it to '''a PC’s USB port''' or to a '''12V DC power source.'''<br />
<br />
A full charge of the rechargeable batteries takes '''up to 4 hours''' from a '''DC power source.''' If the battery is fully discharged, charging may take '''more than 8 hours'''. When charging the controller '''via USB''', the charging process is very slow '''(starting at 12 hours)'''; if the battery is deeply discharged, charging may take about a day. Therefore, the best way to charge the controller is using an external power source.<br />
<br />
You can check the battery charge level either in the '''“SokolCFG”''' configurator under the '''“Status”''' tab, in the '''“Sokol”''' mobile app, or on the [[Natlogger]] server '''(in the “Upow” field'''). The battery is considered fully charged if its voltage is approximately '''4.15±0.05 V.''' The battery is considered discharged if its voltage is less than 3.5 V.<br />
<br />
'''<u>Note: If the controller is connected to an external power source but the switch is not set to the ON position (i.e., the device’s internal battery is not activated), the controller will not charge.</u>'''<br />
<br />
'''<u>To restart or power off the controller, follow these steps:</u>'''<br />
<br />
'''1)''' Disconnect any external power sources<br />
<br />
'''2)''' Turn the switch to the '''OFF position (if you do not need to restart the controller, skip step 3)'''<br />
<br />
'''3)''' Turn the switch from the '''OFF''' position to the '''ON''' position, then back to the '''OFF''' position, and then to the '''ON''' position again.<br />
<br />
= <big>'''Connecting and Configuring via the mobile Sokol App'''</big> =<br />
There are several ways to connect and configure the '''Sokol-K1 Controller:'''<br />
<br />

<br />
After connecting, in the '''Meteo Data''' tab you will see current sensor readings. In the '''Status''' tab, service sensor readings are displayed.<br />
<br />
'''Special attention''' should be paid to the parameters:<br />
<br />
'''Azimuth, Tilt''' - these should be close to 0 (or 90 depending on '''firmware''').<blockquote>'''<u>''Azimuth and Elevation are used when operating the SOKOL-M1 controller''</u>'''</blockquote><br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
'''GSM Status and signal strength''' - these parameters help determine why there is no data from the controller on the server.<br />
<br />
'''A negative GSM signal strength''' means the <u>'''message''' '''cannot be sent.'''</u>[[File:Sokol app meteo data.jpg|border|left|frameless]]<br />

= <big>'''Connection and Configuration via the PC Configurator'''</big> =<br />
Once unpacked, the product does not require configuration using standalone software. The controller is factory-calibrated and set by default to a 30-minute message transmission interval. The controller is ready for installation at the site and commissioning. If you need to change the message transmission interval, manually configure the Internet access point settings (not required in most cases), change the operating mode, etc., you must use the '''[https://drive.google.com/file/d/1j8E6x0aW2thIXI3c8o3VTUpnHF6pPLkd/view?usp=sharing Sokol CFG]''' standalone software.<br />
<br />
To connect the controller via '''GSM''', first make sure that '''2G''' coverage is available at the connection site. Check that the '''SIM card''' works in a phone. Make sure that an Internet connection is possible with this SIM card.<br />
<br />
- Then insert the '''SIM card''' into the slot, aligning the contacts toward '''the center of the controller''' and making sure you hear a '''click'''.<br />
<br />
- '''The notched corner''' of the SIM card should '''face down'''.[[File:Sokol-K1 SIM-card 1.jpg|center|frameless|640x640px]]<br />

= <big>'''General information'''</big> =<br />
When working with the '''Sokol-M1 station''', data can be retrieved not only '''via GSM or a direct USB''' connection, but also by polling using '''third-party software and various RS-485 converters.'''<br />
<br />
Below are '''instructions''' for '''<u>configuring, connecting, and polling the station</u>''' using an '''RS-485''' interface converter, as well as for polling '''via Modbus.'''<br />
<br />
= '''Configuring the station for Modbus operation''' =<br />
To connect the '''meteo station''' for '''Modbus''' polling via a computer or '''third-party hardware/software''' using an '''RS-485 converter''', you must configure '''the station itself.'''<br />
<br />
<br />
Install the '''[https://www.fmeter.ru/download/_ftp/meteo-kontrol/sokol-m/%D0%9A%D0%BE%D0%BD%D1%84%D0%B8%D0%B3%D1%83%D1%80%D0%B0%D1%82%D0%BE%D1%80%20%D0%B4%D0%BB%D1%8F%20%D0%A1%D0%9E%D0%9A%D0%9E%D0%9B-%D0%9C.zip Sokol CFG]''' configurator, as well as the '''system component and library files from Microsoft''' if necessary. '''The drivers''' can be found in '''the folder containing the Sokol CFG configurator''' or downloaded from [https://www.fmeter.ru/download/_ftp/other/Component_registration.zip?v=270519154504 '''this link'''.] When these files are installed, a message should appear stating, '''“RuntimePack installed!”'''<br />
<br />
You must also install '''the drivers''' to properly connect the station '''via USB''' and configure it.<br />
<br />
'''<u>[https://www.fmeter.ru/download/_ftp/escort_c-200m/Driver_for_Escort_C-200.zip?v=200320144623 Link to download drivers for the Sokol-M1 station]</u>'''<br />
<br />
<br />
When you connect the '''USB cable''' from the station to '''the computer,''' the device should be recognized as '''"STMicroelectronics Virtual COM Port":'''<br />
[[File:Device manager window.png|center|frameless|608x608px]]<br />
<blockquote>''<u>'''If the port is detected but marked with an exclamation point, either the device is out of power and there isn’t enough power for the COM port to function, or you need to switch USB ports and reconnect it several times. Do not connect the device via a USB hub.'''</u>''</blockquote>Launch the Sokol Meteo Configurator, select the appropriate COM port, and click '''“Open Port.”''' Enter the password by clicking the '''“Enter Password”''' button. The default password is '''222.'''<br />
[[File:Sokol-CFG+Sokol-M1 password.png|center|frameless|662x662px]]<br />
<br />
<br />
Next, select '''“Transmission Channel”''' as '''MB Only or GSM.'''<br />
<br />
'''<u>Important! In firmware version 1.3.5 and later, you must check the “Do not sleep” box.</u>'''<br />
<br />
Then click the '''“Set”''' button.<br />
[[File:Sokol-CFG+ Sokol-M1 settings 2.png|center|frameless|669x669px]]<br />
<br />
<br />
By default, the station is set to '''"1 network address."''' You can '''<u>change or check this setting</u>''' in the configurator under the '''"Server"''' tab.<br />

<br />
== '''Power supply''' ==<br />
To ensure the station operates correctly '''via Modbus''', verify the following connection points:<br />
<br />
* Station power supply. Be sure to turn the switch as follows: from the '''OFF position to ON''', then back to '''OFF''', and then to '''ON again'''. '''<u>An external power supply</u>''' must also be connected to the station<br />
<br />

Next, you need to connect the station to an '''RS-485''' '''converter''' (such as the '''C200M2 or Bolid''') via the station’s '''Modbus''' input. You can use '''any other RS-485 converter,''' provided you follow the pinout. The pinout for the station’s Modbus cable is as follows. <br />

<br />
== '''Pinout and Connection of RS-485 Converters (C200M2)''' ==<br />
To ensure the station operates correctly via the '''C200M2 or Bolid RS-485 converter''', you must verify that the '''wires are connected correctly''' and that the '''pinout is correct'''. You must also install the '''correct drivers''' so that the converters are recognized by the computer system.<br />

= <big>'''Definition and Purpose of a Controller'''</big> =<br />
'''SOKOL-K1''' controllers (hereinafter referred to as the '''controller, SOKOL-K1, or the product''') are designed to collect and process environmental meteorological data, store and analyze the entire volume of information in real time, and transmit it via the '''GSM''' network to a server at specified intervals; they also support '''Modbus''' polling and other data retrieval methods.<br />
<br />
'''Automatic measurement''' of meteorological parameters: air temperature, atmospheric pressure, relative humidity, wind speed, and wind direction is performed using the anemorumbometer [[Anemometer Sokol-A|'''Sokol - A''']] (hereinafter referred to as '''“Sokol-A,” anemometer''') and the '''[[Sokol-TDV meter|Sokol-TDV]]''' sensor (hereinafter referred to as '''“Sokol-TDV,” TDV sensor''').<br />

= <big>'''Charging the battery, external power supply'''</big> =<br />
Before putting the controller into operation, as well as when '''the battery is low''', it must be '''fully charged.''' The battery installed in the controller is charged from '''three power sources:'''<br />
<br />
− a '''solar''' panel (sold separately as an accessory for the Sokol-K1 Controller);<br />
<br />
− via the '''USB''' port from an external power source;<br />
<br />
− via the '''controller’s 12V port''' from an external power source.<br />
<br />
'''The solar''' panel is an alternative power source that allows the controller to operate in standalone mode. '''The USB and 12V external power''' connectors are designed to efficiently charge the controller’s built-in rechargeable battery. To do this, connect it to '''a PC’s USB port''' or to a '''12V DC power source.'''<br />
<br />
A full charge of the rechargeable batteries takes '''up to 4 hours''' from a '''DC power source.''' If the battery is fully discharged, charging may take '''more than 8 hours'''. When charging the controller '''via USB''', the charging process is very slow '''(starting at 12 hours)'''; if the battery is deeply discharged, charging may take about a day. Therefore, the best way to charge the controller is using an external power source.<br />
<br />
You can check the battery charge level either in the '''“SokolCFG”''' configurator under the '''“Status”''' tab, in the '''“Sokol”''' mobile app, or on the [[Natlogger]] server '''(in the “Upow” field'''). The battery is considered fully charged if its voltage is approximately '''4.15±0.05 V.''' The battery is considered discharged if its voltage is less than 3.5 V.<br />
<br />
'''<u>Note: If the controller is connected to an external power source but the switch is not set to the ON position (i.e., the device’s internal battery is not activated), the controller will not charge.</u>'''<br />
<br />
'''<u>To restart or power off the controller, follow these steps:</u>'''<br />
<br />
'''1)''' Disconnect any external power sources<br />
<br />
'''2)''' Turn the switch to the '''OFF position (if you do not need to restart the controller, skip step 3)'''<br />
<br />
'''3)''' Turn the switch from the '''OFF''' position to the '''ON''' position, then back to the '''OFF''' position, and then to the '''ON''' position again.<br />
<br />
= <big>'''Connecting and Configuring via the mobile Sokol App'''</big> =<br />
There are several ways to connect and configure the '''Sokol-K1 Controller:'''<br />
<br />
- Escort mobile app (via Bluetooth connection)<br />
<br />
'''[https://apps.apple.com/us/app/sokol/id1538391278 IOS] / [https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.sokolmeteo.configapp&gl=UK Android]''' (mobile apps)<br />

To connect to the controller '''<u>via Bluetooth</u>''', turn on the controller's battery using the key included in the kit:[[File:Sokol-K1 Key.jpg|center|frameless|693x693px]]<br />
<br />
<br />
Next, open the app and select '''“Connect to Weather Station (Controller).”'''<br />
<br />
Then, tap '''“Connect weather station”''' in the row corresponding to the controller.[[File:Sokol app main 1.jpg|border|left|frameless]]<br />
[[File:Sokol-K1 Sokol main page 1.jpg|border|frameless]]<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
After '''successful''' connection you can:<br />
<br />
* '''view current readings,'''<br />
* '''export black box data,'''<br />
* '''configure the controller.'''<br />
<br />
== <big>'''Online data in the Sokol app'''</big> ==<br />
To view '''current data''' via '''Bluetooth''', connect to the controller and press '''Online Data'''.<br />
<br />
'''Enter the password.''' Default password: '''222'''.[[File:Sokol-K1 Online data 1.jpg|border|left|frameless]]<br />
[[File:Sokol app password 1.jpg|border|frameless]]<br />
<br />
After connecting, in the '''Meteo Data''' tab you will see current sensor readings. In the '''Status''' tab, service sensor readings are displayed.<br />
<br />
'''Special attention''' should be paid to the parameters:<br />
<br />
'''Azimuth, Tilt''' - these should be close to 0 (or 90 depending on '''firmware''').<blockquote>'''<u>''Azimuth and Elevation are used when operating the SOKOL-M1 controller''</u>'''</blockquote><br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
'''GSM Status and signal strength''' - these parameters help determine why there is no data from the controller on the server.<br />
<br />
'''A negative GSM signal strength''' means the <u>'''message''' '''cannot be sent.'''</u>[[File:Sokol app meteo data.jpg|border|left|frameless]]<br />

<br />
<br />
In the '''Additional Devices''' tab you can find readings from additional sensors such as:<br />
<br />
* '''soil moisture sensor,'''<br />
* '''snow depth sensor, etc.'''<br />
<br />
== <big>'''Configurator. Data transmission settings.'''</big> ==<br />
In the '''application''' you can configure the controller. To do this, connect '''via Bluetooth''' and select '''Configurator'''.<br />
<br />
There are '''three tabs''' available in the '''Configurator''' section. On the '''“Data Transmission”''' tab, you can change:<br />
<br />
* Data transmission channel '''(GSM, Modbus only, Iridium, LoRaWAN)'''<br />
* '''GSM''' settings<br />
* '''Server''' settings<br />
* Data transmission interval to '''server'''<br />
* Exchange interval with '''BMVD'''<br />
* Send '''test message''' to '''server'''<br />
<br />
'''By default,''' the controller is already configured to work with '''[[Natlogger]]''' or '''[https://sokolmeteo.com/login Sokolmeteo]''' servers. Operator '''APN settings''' can be found via any search engine - simply enter operator '''name + APN'''. Set the transmission channel to '''GSM.'''<br />

[[File:Sokol_app_gsm_setting_2.png|none|thumb|507x507px|Choosing a data transmission channel]]<br />
<blockquote><u>'''Important:''' In most cases, APN settings are stored on the SIM card itself, so the controller usually receives them automatically when reading the SIM card. SIM cards with static white IP addresses (a practice common in corporate mobile service) deserve special attention. The APN for such SIM cards may differ from the publicly available ones and may require manual entry. You can only obtain the APN settings from your system administrator or the person responsible for corporate communications in your organization.</u></blockquote><br />

<br />
= <big>'''Connection and Configuration via the PC Configurator'''</big> =<br />
Once unpacked, the product does not require configuration using standalone software. The controller is factory-calibrated and set by default to a 30-minute message transmission interval. The controller is ready for installation at the site and commissioning. If you need to change the message transmission interval, manually configure the Internet access point settings (not required in most cases), change the operating mode, etc., you must use the '''[https://drive.google.com/file/d/1j8E6x0aW2thIXI3c8o3VTUpnHF6pPLkd/view?usp=sharing Sokol CFG]''' standalone software.<br />
<br />
To connect the controller via '''GSM''', first make sure that '''2G''' coverage is available at the connection site. Check that the '''SIM card''' works in a phone. Make sure that an Internet connection is possible with this SIM card.<br />
<br />
- Then insert the '''SIM card''' into the slot, aligning the contacts toward '''the center of the controller''' and making sure you hear a '''click'''.<br />
<br />
- '''The notched corner''' of the SIM card should '''face down'''.[[File:Sokol-K1 SIM-card 1.jpg|center|frameless|640x640px]]<br />
[[File:Sokol-K1 SIM-card GIF.gif|center|thumb|Пример установки SIM-карты]]<br />
<br />
Next, be sure to turn the key as follows: from the '''OFF position to ON''', then back to '''OFF''', and once more to '''ON'''.<br />
[[File:Sokol-K1 Key.jpg|center|frameless|746x746px]]<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
'''The LED''' on the controller should flash very frequently - '''5 times per second.''' This means that the controller is setting the time using '''GPS'''. If the time cannot be set, the LED will flash '''once every 2 seconds''' when attempting to connect.<br />
<br />
Next, connect the controller to a PC using the '''USB cable''' supplied in the kit to configure it using the '''[https://drive.google.com/file/d/1j8E6x0aW2thIXI3c8o3VTUpnHF6pPLkd/view?usp=sharing SokolCFG]''' configurator. For the '''[https://drive.google.com/file/d/1j8E6x0aW2thIXI3c8o3VTUpnHF6pPLkd/view?usp=sharing SokolCFG]''' configurator to work correctly, you need to install [https://www.fmeter.ru/download/_ftp/eng/other/Component_registration.zip?v=270519154439 the system components and libraries from Microsoft.]<br />
[[File:Sokol-K1 USB 1.png|center|frameless|687x687px]]<br />
<br />
Also, for '''correct connection and proper detection''' of the controller by the '''computer''', it is necessary to install '''<u>[https://www.fmeter.ru/download/_ftp/escort_c-200m/Driver_for_Escort_C-200.zip?v=200320144623 THIS DRIVER]</u>'''. After proper installation, when connected '''via USB''', the controller will be detected as '''<u>STMicroelectronics Virtual COM Port.</u>'''<br />
[[File:Device_manager_window.png|center|frameless|608x608px]]<br />
<br />
Next, you need to configure the connection to the server. In the PC configurator, you need to connect to the controller by selecting the '''correct COM port''' for the equipment and clicking the '''“Open port”''' button. Next, you need to enter '''a password''' to make changes to the controller settings.<br />
[[File:SOKOL CFG MAIN.png|left|frameless|475x475px]]<br />
[[File:SOKOL CFG PASSWORD.png|frameless|478x478px]]<br />
<br />
In the PC configurator, open the '''“Server”''' tab. Here you need to specify the '''GSM settings''' for your mobile operator. You can find them using any search engine. Just enter the name of the operator and '''APN.'''<br />
<br />
To ensure that the '''SIM card''' is detected correctly by the controller, press the '''“Read SIM”''' button. The configurator should display the SIM card number and '''the controller's IMEI.'''[[File:SOKOL CFG APN.png|center|frameless|690x690px]]<br />
'''Server settings''' are configured depending on which resource you use ([https://sokolmeteo.com/login Sokolmeteo] or [https://app.natlogger.com/auth/sign-in Natlogger)]. Below are screenshots of the '''Sokolmeteo and Natlogger server''' settings in '''the SokolCFG configurator.'''<blockquote>If '''DNS''' does not work correctly, '''enter server IP manually''':<br />
<br />
* Sokolmeteo.com → '''185.27.193.112'''<br />
* Natlogger.com → '''178.154.206.133'''</blockquote> You can change the data transmission frequency from once '''every 10 minutes''' to once every '''59 minutes.'''<br />
<br />
'''The device access password''' is required for '''the server''' to accept data from the correct controller. This password '''must match''' the one specified in the device settings '''when registering the meteo''' controller on the server.<br />
<br />

= <big>'''Polling the Sokol-K1 via Modbus'''</big> =<br />
When working with the '''Sokol-K1 controller''', data can be retrieved not only '''via GSM or a direct USB''' connection, but also by polling using '''third-party software and various RS-485 converters.'''<br />
<br />
Below are '''instructions''' for '''configuring, connecting, and polling the''' controller using an '''RS-485''' interface converter, as well as for polling '''via Modbus.'''<br />
<br />
== '''Configuring the Controller for Modbus Operation''' ==<br />
To connect the Sokol-K1 controller for '''Modbus''' polling via a computer or '''third-party hardware/software''' using an '''RS-485 converter''', you must configure '''the controller itself.'''<br />
<br />
<br />
Install the '''[https://www.fmeter.ru/download/_ftp/meteo-kontrol/sokol-m/%D0%9A%D0%BE%D0%BD%D1%84%D0%B8%D0%B3%D1%83%D1%80%D0%B0%D1%82%D0%BE%D1%80%20%D0%B4%D0%BB%D1%8F%20%D0%A1%D0%9E%D0%9A%D0%9E%D0%9B-%D0%9C.zip Sokol CFG]''' configurator, as well as the '''system component and library files from Microsoft''' if necessary. '''The drivers''' can be found in '''the folder containing the Sokol CFG configurator''' or downloaded from [https://www.fmeter.ru/download/_ftp/other/Component_registration.zip?v=270519154504 '''this link'''.] When these files are installed, a message should appear stating, '''“RuntimePack installed!”'''<br />
<br />
You must also install '''the drivers''' to properly connect the controller '''via USB''' and configure it.<br />
<br />
'''<u>[https://www.fmeter.ru/download/_ftp/escort_c-200m/Driver_for_Escort_C-200.zip?v=200320144623 Link to download drivers for the Sokol-K1 controller]</u>'''<br />
<br />
<br />
When you connect the '''USB cable''' from the controller to '''the computer,''' the device should be recognized as '''"STMicroelectronics Virtual COM Port":'''<br />

<blockquote><blockquote>''<u>'''If the port is detected but marked with an exclamation point, either the device is out of power and there isn’t enough power for the COM port to function, or you need to switch USB ports and reconnect it several times. Do not connect the device via a USB hub.'''</u>''</blockquote>Launch the Sokol Meteo Configurator, select the appropriate COM port, and click '''“Open Port.”''' Enter the password by clicking the '''“Enter Password”''' button. The default password is '''222.'''</blockquote>[[File:Sokol-CFG+Sokol-M1_password.png|center|frameless|662x662px]]<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Next, select '''“Transmission Channel”''' as '''MB Only or GSM.'''<br />
<br />
'''<u>Important! In firmware version 1.3.5 and later, you must check the “Do not sleep” box.</u>'''<br />
<br />
Then click the '''“Set”''' button.[[File:Sokol-CFG+_Sokol-M1_settings_2.png|center|frameless|669x669px]]<br />
<br />
<br />
By default, the controller is set to '''"1 network address."''' You can '''<u>change or check this setting</u>''' in the configurator under the '''"Server"''' tab.<br />
[[File:Sokol-CFG+_Sokol-M1_settings_1.png|center|frameless|676x676px]]<br />
<br />
== '''Controller power supply''' ==<br />
To ensure the controller operates correctly '''via Modbus''', verify the following connection points:<br />
<br />
* controller power supply. Be sure to turn the switch as follows: from the '''OFF position to ON''', then back to '''OFF''', and then to '''ON again'''. '''<u>An external power supply</u>''' must also be connected to the controller <br />
<br />

== '''Modbus controller connection''' ==<br />
Next, you need to connect the controller to an '''RS-485''' '''converter''' (such as the '''C200M2 or any other converter''') via the controller’s '''Modbus''' input. You can use '''any other RS-485 converter,''' provided you follow the pinout. The pinout for the controller’s Modbus cable is as follows.<br />

<br />
== '''Pinout and Connection of RS-485 Converters (C200M2)''' ==<br />
To ensure the controller operates correctly via the '''C200M2 or Bolid RS-485 converter''', you must verify that the '''wires are connected correctly''' and that the '''pinout is correct'''. You must also install the '''correct drivers''' so that the converters are recognized by the computer system.<br />

= <big>'''Charging the battery, external power supply'''</big> =<br />
Before putting the controller into operation, as well as when '''the battery is low''', it must be '''fully charged.''' The battery installed in the controller is charged from '''three power sources:'''<br />
<br />
− a '''solar''' panel (sold separately as an accessory for the Sokol-K1 Controller);<br />
<br />
− via the '''USB''' port from an external power source;<br />
<br />
− via the '''controller’s 12V port''' from an external power source.<br />
<br />
'''The solar''' panel is an alternative power source that allows the controller to operate in standalone mode. '''The USB and 12V external power''' connectors are designed to efficiently charge the controller’s built-in rechargeable battery. To do this, connect it to '''a PC’s USB port''' or to a '''12V DC power source.'''<br />
<br />
A full charge of the rechargeable batteries takes '''up to 4 hours''' from a '''DC power source.''' If the battery is fully discharged, charging may take '''more than 8 hours'''. When charging the controller '''via USB''', the charging process is very slow '''(starting at 12 hours)'''; if the battery is deeply discharged, charging may take about a day. Therefore, the best way to charge the controller is using an external power source.<br />
<br />
You can check the battery charge level either in the '''“SokolCFG”''' configurator under the '''“Status”''' tab, in the '''“Sokol”''' mobile app, or on the [[Natlogger]] server '''(in the “Upow” field'''). The battery is considered fully charged if its voltage is approximately '''4.15±0.05 V.''' The battery is considered discharged if its voltage is less than 3.5 V.<br />
<br />
'''<u>Note: If the controller is connected to an external power source but the switch is not set to the ON position (i.e., the device’s internal battery is not activated), the controller will not charge.</u>'''<br />
<br />
'''<u>To restart or power off the controller, follow these steps:</u>'''<br />
<br />
'''1)''' Disconnect any external power sources<br />
<br />
'''2)''' Turn the switch to the '''OFF position (if you do not need to restart the controller, skip step 3)'''<br />
<br />
'''3)''' Turn the switch from the '''OFF''' position to the '''ON''' position, then back to the '''OFF''' position, and then to the '''ON''' position again.<br />

= <big>'''Connection and Configuration via the PC Configurator'''</big> =<br />
Once unpacked, the product does not require configuration using standalone software. The controller is factory-calibrated and set by default to a 30-minute message transmission interval. The controller is ready for installation at the site and commissioning. If you need to change the message transmission interval, manually configure the Internet access point settings (not required in most cases), change the operating mode, etc., you must use the '''[https://drive.google.com/file/d/1j8E6x0aW2thIXI3c8o3VTUpnHF6pPLkd/view?usp=sharing Sokol CFG]''' standalone software.<br />
<br />
To connect the controller via '''GSM''', first make sure that '''2G''' coverage is available at the connection site. Check that the '''SIM card''' works in a phone. Make sure that an Internet connection is possible with this SIM card.<br />
<br />
- Then insert the '''SIM card''' into the slot, aligning the contacts toward '''the center of the controller''' and making sure you hear a '''click'''.<br />

= <big>'''Definition and Purpose of a Controller'''</big> =<br />
'''SOKOL-K1''' controllers (hereinafter referred to as the '''controller, SOKOL-K1, or the product''') are designed to collect and process environmental meteorological data, store and analyze the entire volume of information in real time, and transmit it via the '''GSM''' network to a server at specified intervals; they also support '''Modbus''' polling and other data retrieval methods.<br />
<br />
'''Automatic measurement''' of meteorological parameters: air temperature, atmospheric pressure, relative humidity, wind speed, and wind direction is performed using the anemorumbometer [[Anemometer Sokol-A|'''Sokol - A''']] (hereinafter referred to as '''“Sokol-A,” anemometer''') and the '''[[Sokol-TDV meter|Sokol-TDV]]''' sensor (hereinafter referred to as '''“Sokol-TDV,” TDV sensor''').<br />

= <big>'''Charging the battery, external power supply'''</big> =<br />
Before putting the controller into operation, as well as when '''the battery is low''', it must be '''fully charged.''' The battery installed in the controller is charged from '''three power sources:'''<br />
<br />
− a '''solar''' panel (sold separately as an accessory for the Sokol-K1 Controller);<br />
<br />
− via the '''USB''' port from an external power source;<br />
<br />
− via the '''controller’s 12V port''' from an external power source.<br />
<br />
'''The solar''' panel is an alternative power source that allows the controller to operate in standalone mode. '''The USB and 12V external power''' connectors are designed to efficiently charge the controller’s built-in rechargeable battery. To do this, connect it to '''a PC’s USB port''' or to a '''12V DC power source.'''<br />
<br />
A full charge of the rechargeable batteries takes '''up to 4 hours''' from a '''DC power source.''' If the battery is fully discharged, charging may take '''more than 8 hours'''. When charging the controller '''via USB''', the charging process is very slow '''(starting at 12 hours)'''; if the battery is deeply discharged, charging may take about a day. Therefore, the best way to charge the controller is using an external power source.<br />
<br />
You can check the battery charge level either in the '''“SokolCFG”''' configurator under the '''“Status”''' tab, in the '''“Sokol”''' mobile app, or on the [[Natlogger]] server '''(in the “Upow” field'''). The battery is considered fully charged if its voltage is approximately '''4.15±0.05 V.''' The battery is considered discharged if its voltage is less than 3.5 V.<br />
<br />
'''<u>Note: If the controller is connected to an external power source but the switch is not set to the ON position (i.e., the device’s internal battery is not activated), the controller will not charge.</u>'''<br />
<br />
'''<u>To restart or power off the controller, follow these steps:</u>'''<br />
<br />
'''1)''' Disconnect any external power sources<br />
<br />
'''2)''' Turn the switch to the '''OFF position (if you do not need to restart the controller, skip step 3)'''<br />
<br />
'''3)''' Turn the switch from the '''OFF''' position to the '''ON''' position, then back to the '''OFF''' position, and then to the '''ON''' position again.<br />
<br />
= <big>'''Connecting and Configuring via the mobile Sokol App'''</big> =<br />
There are several ways to connect and configure the '''Sokol-K1 Controller:'''<br />
<br />
- Escort mobile app (via Bluetooth connection)<br />

[[File:Sokol app password 1.jpg|border|frameless]]<br />
<br />
After connecting, in the '''Meteo Data''' tab you will see current sensor readings. In the '''Status''' tab, service sensor readings are displayed.<br />
<br />
'''Special attention''' should be paid to the parameters:<br />
<br />
'''Azimuth, Tilt''' - these should be close to 0 (or 90 depending on '''firmware''').<blockquote>'''<u>''Azimuth and Elevation are used when operating the SOKOL-M1 controller''</u>'''</blockquote><br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
'''GSM Status and signal strength''' - these parameters help determine why there is no data from the station on the server.<br />
<br />
'''A negative GSM signal strength''' means the <u>'''message''' '''cannot be sent.'''</u>[[File:Sokol app meteo data.jpg|border|left|frameless]]<br />

<blockquote><u>'''Important:''' In most cases, APN settings are stored on the SIM card itself, so the station usually receives them automatically when reading the SIM card. SIM cards with static white IP addresses (a practice common in corporate mobile service) deserve special attention. The APN for such SIM cards may differ from the publicly available ones and may require manual entry. You can only obtain the APN settings from your system administrator or the person responsible for corporate communications in your organization.</u></blockquote><br />

= <big>'''Connection and Configuration via the PC Configurator'''</big> =<br />
Once unpacked, the product does not require configuration using standalone software. The controller is factory-calibrated and set by default to a 30-minute message transmission interval. The controller is ready for installation at the site and commissioning. If you need to change the message transmission interval, manually configure the Internet access point settings (not required in most cases), change the operating mode, etc., you must use the '''[https://drive.google.com/file/d/1j8E6x0aW2thIXI3c8o3VTUpnHF6pPLkd/view?usp=sharing Sokol CFG]''' standalone software.<br />
<br />
To connect the controller via '''GSM''', first make sure that '''2G''' coverage is available at the connection site. Check that the '''SIM card''' works in a phone. Make sure that an Internet connection is possible with this SIM card.<br />
<br />
- Then insert the '''SIM card''' into the slot, aligning the contacts toward '''the center of the controller''' and making sure you hear a '''click'''.<br />
<br />
- '''The notched corner''' of the SIM card should '''face down'''.[[File:Sokol-K1 SIM-card 1.jpg|center|frameless|640x640px]]<br />

<br />
Next, be sure to turn the key as follows: from the '''OFF position to ON''', then back to '''OFF''', and once more to '''ON'''.<br />
[[File:Sokol-K1 Key.jpg|center|frameless|746x746px]]<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
'''The LED''' on the station should flash very frequently - '''5 times per second.''' This means that the station is setting the time using '''GPS'''. If the time cannot be set, the LED will flash '''once every 2 seconds''' when attempting to connect.<br />
<br />
Next, connect the station to a PC using the '''USB cable''' supplied in the kit to configure it using the '''[https://drive.google.com/file/d/1j8E6x0aW2thIXI3c8o3VTUpnHF6pPLkd/view?usp=sharing SokolCFG]''' configurator. For the '''[https://drive.google.com/file/d/1j8E6x0aW2thIXI3c8o3VTUpnHF6pPLkd/view?usp=sharing SokolCFG]''' configurator to work correctly, you need to install [https://www.fmeter.ru/download/_ftp/eng/other/Component_registration.zip?v=270519154439 the system components and libraries from Microsoft.]<br />
[[File:Sokol-K1 USB 1.png|center|frameless|687x687px]]<br />
<br />
Also, for '''correct connection and proper detection''' of the station by the '''computer''', it is necessary to install '''<u>[https://www.fmeter.ru/download/_ftp/escort_c-200m/Driver_for_Escort_C-200.zip?v=200320144623 THIS DRIVER]</u>'''. After proper installation, when connected '''via USB''', the station will be detected as '''<u>STMicroelectronics Virtual COM Port.</u>'''<br />

<br />
Next, you need to configure the connection to the server. In the PC configurator, you need to connect to the station by selecting the '''correct COM port''' for the equipment and clicking the '''“Open port”''' button. Next, you need to enter '''a password''' to make changes to the station settings.<br />
[[File:SOKOL CFG MAIN.png|left|frameless|475x475px]]<br />
[[File:SOKOL CFG PASSWORD.png|frameless|478x478px]]<br />
<br />
In the PC configurator, open the '''“Server”''' tab. Here you need to specify the '''GSM settings''' for your mobile operator. You can find them using any search engine. Just enter the name of the operator and '''APN.'''<br />
<br />
To ensure that the '''SIM card''' is detected correctly by the station, press the '''“Read SIM”''' button. The configurator should display the SIM card number and '''the station's IMEI.'''[[File:SOKOL CFG APN.png|center|frameless|690x690px]]<br />
'''Server settings''' are configured depending on which resource you use ([https://sokolmeteo.com/login Sokolmeteo] or [https://app.natlogger.com/auth/sign-in Natlogger)].

= <big>'''Polling the Sokol-K1 via Modbus'''</big> =<br />
When working with the '''Sokol-M1 station''', data can be retrieved not only '''via GSM or a direct USB''' connection, but also by polling using '''third-party software and various RS-485 converters.'''<br />
<br />
Below are '''instructions''' for '''configuring, connecting, and polling the station''' using an '''RS-485''' interface converter, as well as for polling '''via Modbus.'''<br />
<br />
== '''Configuring the Controller for Modbus Operation''' ==<br />
To connect the '''meteo station''' for '''Modbus''' polling via a computer or '''third-party hardware/software''' using an '''RS-485 converter''', you must configure '''the station itself.'''<br />
<br />
<br />

<br />
Next, select '''“Transmission Channel”''' as '''MB Only or GSM.'''<br />
<br />
'''<u>Important! In firmware version 1.3.5 and later, you must check the “Do not sleep” box.</u>'''<br />
<br />
Then click the '''“Set”''' button.[[File:Sokol-CFG+_Sokol-M1_settings_2.png|center|frameless|669x669px]]<br />
<br />
<br />
By default, the station is set to '''"1 network address."''' You can '''<u>change or check this setting</u>''' in the configurator under the '''"Server"''' tab.<br />
[[File:Sokol-CFG+_Sokol-M1_settings_1.png|center|frameless|676x676px]]<br />
<br />
== '''Controller power supply''' ==<br />
To ensure the station operates correctly '''via Modbus''', verify the following connection points:<br />
<br />
* Station power supply. Be sure to turn the switch as follows: from the '''OFF position to ON''', then back to '''OFF''', and then to '''ON again'''. '''<u>An external power supply</u>''' must also be connected to the station<br />

Перед началом эксплуатации контроллера, а также при '''низком заряде''' аккумуляторной батареи, необходимо его '''полностью зарядить'''. Аккумуляторная батарея, установленная в контроллере, заряжается от '''трех источников''' питания:<br />
<br />
− '''солнечная''' батарея (является отдельным дополнением к Контроллеру Сокол-К1;<br />
<br />
− через разъем '''USB''' от внешнего источника питания;<br />
<br />
− через разъем '''12V контроллера''' от внешнего источника питания.<br />
<br />
'''Солнечная батарея''' – альтернативный источник энергии, позволяющий поддерживать работу контроллера в автономном режиме. Разъемы '''USB''' и '''внешнего питания 12 В''' предназначены для эффективного заряда встроенной аккумуляторной батареи контроллера. Для этого ее необходимо подключить к разъему '''USB ПК''' или к источнику '''постоянного тока 12 В'''.<br />
<br />
Полная зарядка аккумуляторных батарей длится '''до 4 часов''' от источника '''постоянного тока'''. При полном разряде аккумуляторной батареи режим зарядки может составить '''более 8 часов.''' При зарядке контроллера через '''USB''', заряд идет очень медленно '''(от 12 ч)''', при '''глубоком разряде''' период заряда может занять '''около суток'''. Поэтому лучший способ заряда будет от '''внешнего питания.'''<br />
<br />
Значение заряда аккумуляторной батареи можно проконтролировать либо в конфигураторе '''«SokolCFG»''' во вкладке '''«Состояние»''', в мобильном приложении '''«Sokol»,''' а также на сервер [https://app.natlogger.com/monitoring Natlogger] (поле '''«Upow»'''). Аккумуляторная батарея считается '''полностью заряженной''', если напряжение на ней равно порядка '''4,15±0,05 В'''. Аккумуляторная батарея считается разряженной, если напряжение – '''менее 3,5 В.'''<br />
<br />
'''<u>Внимание: если контроллер подключен к внешнему источнику питания, но ключ не переведен в режим ON (то есть не включен внутренний аккумулятор устройства), то зарядка контроллера производиться не будет.</u>'''<br />
<br />
'''<u>Для перезапуска контроллера или его отключения, необходимо сделать следующее:</u>'''<br />
<br />
'''1)''' Отключить '''внешние''' источники питания<br />
<br />
'''2)''' Перевести ключ в положение '''OFF (если нет необходимости перезапуска, то пропускайте 3 шаг)'''<br />
<br />
'''3)''' Перевести ключ из положения '''OFF''' в положение '''ON''', после этого еще раз в положение '''OFF''', а после в положение '''ON.'''<br />

После распаковки изделие не требует настройки через автономное ПО. Контроллер имеет заводскую калибровку и по умолчанию настроен на 30 минутный интервал отправки сообщений. Контроллер готов к монтажу на месте эксплуатации и запуску. Если требуется изменить интервал отправки сообщений, вручную прописать параметры точки доступа в Интернет (в большинстве случаев не требуется), изменить режим работы и т.п., необходимо воспользоваться автономным ПО '''[https://www.fmeter.ru/download/_ftp/meteo-kontrol/sokol-m/%D0%9A%D0%BE%D0%BD%D1%84%D0%B8%D0%B3%D1%83%D1%80%D0%B0%D1%82%D0%BE%D1%80%20%D0%B4%D0%BB%D1%8F%20%D0%A1%D0%9E%D0%9A%D0%9E%D0%9B-%D0%9C.zip Sokol CFG]'''.<br />
<br />
<br />
Для подключения контроллера по '''GSM''', прежде всего убедитесь, что в месте, где проводится подключение есть связь '''2G'''. Проверьте работоспособность '''SIM-карты''' в телефоне. Убедитесь, что подключение к интернету с данной сим-картой возможно.<br />
<br />
- После этого вставьте '''SIM-карту''' в слот, направив контакты '''к центру контроллера''' и убедившись что вы услышали '''щелчок.'''<br />
<br />
- '''Угловой срез''' SIM-карты должен смотреть '''вниз.'''<br />

<br />
Далее обязательно поверните ключ следующим образом: из положения '''OFF в ON''', затем снова в '''OFF''' и еще раз в '''ON.'''<br />
[[File:Sokol-K1 Key.jpg|center|frameless|746x746px]]<br />
<br />
<br />
Светодиод на контроллере должен заморгать очень часто - '''5 раз в секунду'''. Это значит, что станция устанавливает время по '''GPS'''. Если время не получится установить, то при попытке подключения светодиод будет мигать '''1 раз в 2 секунды'''.<br />
<br />
<br />
Далее необходимо подключить контроллер к ПК при помощи '''USB провода''', который поставляется в комплекте, для настройки через конфигуратор '''[https://www.fmeter.ru/download/_ftp/meteo-kontrol/sokol-m/%D0%9A%D0%BE%D0%BD%D1%84%D0%B8%D0%B3%D1%83%D1%80%D0%B0%D1%82%D0%BE%D1%80%20%D0%B4%D0%BB%D1%8F%20%D0%A1%D0%9E%D0%9A%D0%9E%D0%9B-%D0%9C.zip SokolCFG]'''.

= <big>'''Definition and Purpose of a Controller'''</big> =<br />
'''SOKOL-K1''' controllers (hereinafter referred to as the '''controller, SOKOL-K1, or the product''') are designed to collect and process environmental meteorological data, store and analyze the entire volume of information in real time, and transmit it via the '''GSM''' network to a server at specified intervals; they also support '''Modbus''' polling and other data retrieval methods.<br />
<br />
'''Automatic measurement''' of meteorological parameters: air temperature, atmospheric pressure, relative humidity, wind speed, and wind direction is performed using the anemorumbometer [[Anemometer Sokol-A|'''Sokol - A''']] (hereinafter referred to as '''“Sokol-A,” anemometer''') and the '''[[Sokol-TDV meter|Sokol-TDV]]''' sensor (hereinafter referred to as '''“Sokol-TDV,” TDV sensor''').<br />

= <big>'''Зарядка аккумуляторной батареи, внешнее питание'''</big> =<br />
Перед началом эксплуатации контроллера, а также при '''низком заряде''' аккумуляторной батареи, необходимо его '''полностью зарядить'''. Аккумуляторная батарея, установленная в контроллере, заряжается от '''трех источников''' питания:<br />
<br />
− '''солнечная''' батарея (является отдельным дополнением к Контроллеру Сокол-К1;<br />
<br />
− через разъем '''USB''' от внешнего источника питания;<br />
<br />
− через разъем '''12V контроллера''' от внешнего источника питания.<br />
<br />
'''Солнечная батарея''' – альтернативный источник энергии, позволяющий поддерживать работу контроллера в автономном режиме. Разъемы '''USB''' и '''внешнего питания 12 В''' предназначены для эффективного заряда встроенной аккумуляторной батареи контроллера. Для этого ее необходимо подключить к разъему '''USB ПК''' или к источнику '''постоянного тока 12 В'''.<br />
<br />
Полная зарядка аккумуляторных батарей длится '''до 4 часов''' от источника '''постоянного тока'''. При полном разряде аккумуляторной батареи режим зарядки может составить '''более 8 часов.''' При зарядке контроллера через '''USB''', заряд идет очень медленно '''(от 12 ч)''', при '''глубоком разряде''' период заряда может занять '''около суток'''. Поэтому лучший способ заряда будет от '''внешнего питания.'''<br />
<br />
Значение заряда аккумуляторной батареи можно проконтролировать либо в конфигураторе '''«SokolCFG»''' во вкладке '''«Состояние»''', в мобильном приложении '''«Sokol»,''' а также на сервер [https://app.natlogger.com/monitoring Natlogger] (поле '''«Upow»'''). Аккумуляторная батарея считается '''полностью заряженной''', если напряжение на ней равно порядка '''4,15±0,05 В'''. Аккумуляторная батарея считается разряженной, если напряжение – '''менее 3,5 В.'''<br />
<br />
'''<u>Внимание: если контроллер подключен к внешнему источнику питания, но ключ не переведен в режим ON (то есть не включен внутренний аккумулятор устройства), то зарядка контроллера производиться не будет.</u>'''<br />
<br />
'''<u>Для перезапуска контроллера или его отключения, необходимо сделать следующее:</u>'''<br />
<br />
'''1)''' Отключить '''внешние''' источники питания<br />
<br />
'''2)''' Перевести ключ в положение '''OFF (если нет необходимости перезапуска, то пропускайте 3 шаг)'''<br />
<br />
'''3)''' Перевести ключ из положения '''OFF''' в положение '''ON''', после этого еще раз в положение '''OFF''', а после в положение '''ON.'''<br />

После распаковки изделие не требует настройки через автономное ПО. Контроллер имеет заводскую калибровку и по умолчанию настроен на 30 минутный интервал отправки сообщений. Контроллер готов к монтажу на месте эксплуатации и запуску. Если требуется изменить интервал отправки сообщений, вручную прописать параметры точки доступа в Интернет (в большинстве случаев не требуется), изменить режим работы и т.п., необходимо воспользоваться автономным ПО '''[https://www.fmeter.ru/download/_ftp/meteo-kontrol/sokol-m/%D0%9A%D0%BE%D0%BD%D1%84%D0%B8%D0%B3%D1%83%D1%80%D0%B0%D1%82%D0%BE%D1%80%20%D0%B4%D0%BB%D1%8F%20%D0%A1%D0%9E%D0%9A%D0%9E%D0%9B-%D0%9C.zip Sokol CFG]'''.<br />
<br />
<br />
Для подключения контроллера по '''GSM''', прежде всего убедитесь, что в месте, где проводится подключение есть связь '''2G'''. Проверьте работоспособность '''SIM-карты''' в телефоне. Убедитесь, что подключение к интернету с данной сим-картой возможно.<br />
<br />
- После этого вставьте '''SIM-карту''' в слот, направив контакты '''к центру контроллера''' и убедившись что вы услышали '''щелчок.'''<br />
<br />
- '''Угловой срез''' SIM-карты должен смотреть '''вниз.'''<br />

Далее обязательно поверните ключ следующим образом: из положения '''OFF в ON''', затем снова в '''OFF''' и еще раз в '''ON.'''<br />
[[File:Sokol-K1 Key.jpg|center|frameless|746x746px]]<br />
<br />
<br />
Светодиод на контроллере должен заморгать очень часто - '''5 раз в секунду'''. Это значит, что станция устанавливает время по '''GPS'''. Если время не получится установить, то при попытке подключения светодиод будет мигать '''1 раз в 2 секунды'''.<br />
<br />
<br />
Далее необходимо подключить контроллер к ПК при помощи '''USB провода''', который поставляется в комплекте, для настройки через конфигуратор '''[https://www.fmeter.ru/download/_ftp/meteo-kontrol/sokol-m/%D0%9A%D0%BE%D0%BD%D1%84%D0%B8%D0%B3%D1%83%D1%80%D0%B0%D1%82%D0%BE%D1%80%20%D0%B4%D0%BB%D1%8F%20%D0%A1%D0%9E%D0%9A%D0%9E%D0%9B-%D0%9C.zip SokolCFG]'''.

= <big>'''Зарядка аккумуляторной батареи, внешнее питание'''</big> =<br />
Перед началом эксплуатации контроллера, а также при '''низком заряде''' аккумуляторной батареи, необходимо его '''полностью зарядить'''. Аккумуляторная батарея, установленная в контроллере, заряжается от '''трех источников''' питания:<br />
<br />
− '''солнечная''' батарея (является отдельным дополнением к Контроллеру Сокол-К1;<br />
<br />
− через разъем '''USB''' от внешнего источника питания;<br />
<br />
− через разъем '''12V контроллера''' от внешнего источника питания.<br />
<br />
'''Солнечная батарея''' – альтернативный источник энергии, позволяющий поддерживать работу контроллера в автономном режиме. Разъемы '''USB''' и '''внешнего питания 12 В''' предназначены для эффективного заряда встроенной аккумуляторной батареи контроллера. Для этого ее необходимо подключить к разъему '''USB ПК''' или к источнику '''постоянного тока 12 В'''.<br />
<br />
Полная зарядка аккумуляторных батарей длится '''до 4 часов''' от источника '''постоянного тока'''. При полном разряде аккумуляторной батареи режим зарядки может составить '''более 8 часов.''' При зарядке контроллера через '''USB''', заряд идет очень медленно '''(от 12 ч)''', при '''глубоком разряде''' период заряда может занять '''около суток'''. Поэтому лучший способ заряда будет от '''внешнего питания.'''<br />
<br />
Значение заряда аккумуляторной батареи можно проконтролировать либо в конфигураторе '''«SokolCFG»''' во вкладке '''«Состояние»''', в мобильном приложении '''«Sokol»,''' а также на сервер [https://app.natlogger.com/monitoring Natlogger] (поле '''«Upow»'''). Аккумуляторная батарея считается '''полностью заряженной''', если напряжение на ней равно порядка '''4,15±0,05 В'''. Аккумуляторная батарея считается разряженной, если напряжение – '''менее 3,5 В.'''<br />
<br />
'''<u>Внимание: если контроллер подключен к внешнему источнику питания, но ключ не переведен в режим ON (то есть не включен внутренний аккумулятор устройства), то зарядка контроллера производиться не будет.</u>'''<br />
<br />
'''<u>Для перезапуска контроллера или его отключения, необходимо сделать следующее:</u>'''<br />
<br />
'''1)''' Отключить '''внешние''' источники питания<br />
<br />
'''2)''' Перевести ключ в положение '''OFF (если нет необходимости перезапуска, то пропускайте 3 шаг)'''<br />
<br />
'''3)''' Перевести ключ из положения '''OFF''' в положение '''ON''', после этого еще раз в положение '''OFF''', а после в положение '''ON.'''<br />

= <big>'''Installation and preparation for operation'''</big> =<br />
<br />
== '''<big>Preparing the operating site</big>''' ==<br />
The product should be placed in an open area with free access to the equipment. There should be no significant obstacles '''(large buildings, groups of trees)''' within a minimum distance '''of 10 m around the site''' where the station is located.<br />
<br />
It is not recommended to install the product near surfaces that heat up significantly, such as roofs covered with roofing felt. It is not recommended to install the station near a motorway, as the vibration caused by the movement of heavy vehicles may affect the measurement results.<br />
<br />
Avoid sites on slopes or steep slopes descending in one direction '''(especially if this direction coincides with the prevailing wind direction)''' so that the selected site does not significantly distort the wind speed and direction.<br />
<br />
The installation site should be selected in an area that is typical of the surrounding terrain and does not differ from the surrounding area in terms of heat and moisture exchange characteristics. There should be a natural surface '''(grass, soil)''' near the location of the remote sensors.<br />
[[File:SOKOL-M1 1.png|center|frameless|681x681px]]<br />
<br />
For the correct operation of the precipitation, temperature, atmospheric pressure, and relative humidity sensors built into the weather station, the product should be installed at a height of '''2±0.05 m''' above the ground.<br />
<br />
It is recommended to place the external weather vane and anemometer at a height of '''10 m''' above the ground. Wind sensors can be placed on the roof of a house. In this case, they should be placed at a height of at least '''2-3 m above''' the upper edge of the roof.<br />
<br />
When installing the '''Sokol-DR 800''' distance sensor, the expected snowfall height in the area should be taken into account, and it should be installed '''no closer than 15 cm''' to the expected snowline.<br />
<br />
The order of installation and connection of the weather station's optional elements depends on their list and installation locations '''(mast, pole, tripod)'''. The installation of optional elements should be carried out '''from top to bottom''', starting with the highest sensor '''(device).'''<br />
<br />
'''<u>''Note''</u>''' – ''<u>The results of measurements of basic meteorological parameters at stations make it possible to interpolate measured values at any point within a homogeneous territory with a radius of '''50 to 60 km''' (for precipitation and atmospheric phenomena – within a radius of approximately '''15 to 20 km''').</u>''<br />
[[File:SOKOL-M1 2.png|center|frameless|705x705px]]<br />
<br />
== '''<big>Installation at the place of operation</big>''' ==<br />
The product should be installed on a support mast on a '''flat surface''' free from obstacles that could affect the product's readings.<br />
<br />
'''The maximum angle''' between the point where the weather station is attached to the support and the top of any obstructing objects should be '''45°''' to the horizontal surface.<br />
<br />
To minimize the effect of precipitation splash, '''it is recommended to avoid''' areas with hard surfaces such as metal, asphalt, or concrete. Instead, '''it is recommended''' '''to''' install the product on low grass, gravel, pebbles, or soft soil. '''Avoid sites''' on slopes or steep slopes descending in one direction (especially if this direction coincides with the prevailing wind direction) so that the selected site '''does not significantly distort''' wind speed and direction. '''It is not recommended to''' install the product on building roofs, as this '''may distort''' the measurement results.<br />
<br />
Before installing the '''SOKOL-M1''', it is necessary to prepare a mounting support for the product. Metal pipes or poles with an outer diameter of '''40 to 48 mm''' should be used as supports.<br />
<br />
'''<u>The product is installed in the following order:</u>'''<br />
<br />
− unpack the product;<br />
<br />
− check the componentss of the product in accordance with this operating manual. If the product is found to be incomplete, notify the supplier or the organization providing comprehensive centralized service, and consider the '''SOKOL-M1''' station not ready for use;<br />
<br />
− Check the components of the product for damage. To do this, you must sequentially inspect all components of the product to check the condition of the power cables and interface cables for external mechanical damage.

== '''<big>Mounting on a tripod, mast, bracket, and pole</big>''' ==<br />
The '''SOKOL-M1''' weather station is installed on a tripod, mast, pole, or bracket as shown in '''Figure 8.'''<br />
<br />
The tripod for the '''SOKOL-M1''' weather station is not included in the delivery set and must be purchased separately.<br />
<br />
'''<u>''To mount the weather station on a tripod, you need to:''</u>'''<br />
<br />
'''1)''' Set up the tripod at the measurement site. The unevenness of the upper head of the tripod should not exceed 0.3 mm. Secure each leg of the tripod.<br />
<br />
'''<u>ATTENTION! ENSURE THAT THE TRIPOD IS STABLE.</u>'''<br />
<br />
'''2)''' Secure two '''MS1.70.10.02 pipe clamps (3)''' to the top of the tripod using '''U-bolts (4),''' '''washers (5), and nuts (6).'''<br />
<br />
'''3)''' Tighten the '''fastening nuts.''' Do not allow the weather station to rotate on the central pole. Secure the '''SOKOL-M1''' weather station installed on the central pole of the tripod '''(mast, bracket, pole)''' to the pole or mast.<br />
[[File:SOKOL-M1 10.png|center|frameless|715x715px]]<br />
<br />
= <big>'''Charging the battery, external power supply'''</big> =<br />
Before starting to use the weather station, and also when the '''battery is low''', it must be '''fully charged.''' The battery installed in the weather station is charged from '''three power sources:'''<br />
<br />
− '''sola'''r battery;<blockquote>'''The station’s internal battery is not charged by the solar panel on the station housing at temperatures below 0°C!'''</blockquote>− via a '''USB connector''' from an external power source;<br />
<br />
− via an '''8-25 VDC''' connector on the weather station from an external power source.<br />
<br />
'''The solar panel''' is an alternative power source that allows the weather station to operate in stand-alone mode. The '''USB and 12 V external power''' connectors are designed to efficiently charge the weather station's built-in rechargeable battery. To do this, it must be connected to a '''PC USB por'''t or a '''12 V DC''' power source.<br />
<br />
It takes '''up to 12 hours''' to fully charge the rechargeable batteries from a '''DC power source'''. When the battery is completely discharged, the charging mode can take '''more than 20 hours.''' When charging the station via '''USB,''' charging is very slow '''(from 12 hours),''' and when the battery is '''deeply discharged,''' the charging period can take '''about a day.''' Therefore, the best way to charge is from an '''external power source.'''<br />
<br />
The battery charge level can be checked either in the '''SokolCFG configurator''' in the '''Status tab''', in the '''Sokol mobile app''', or on the [[Natlogger]] server '''(Upow field)'''. The battery is considered '''fully charged''' when its voltage is approximately '''4.15±0.05''' V. The battery is considered discharged when its voltage is less than '''3.5 V.'''<br />
<br />
'''<u>Please note: if the station is connected to an external power source but the key is not turned to the ON position (i.e., the device's internal battery is not turned on), the station will not be charged.</u>'''<br />
<br />
'''<u>To restart or turn off the station, do the following:</u>'''<br />
<br />
'''1)''' Disconnect '''external power''' sources.<br />
<br />
'''2)''' Turn the key to the '''OFF''' position '''(if restarting is not necessary, skip step 3).'''<br />
<br />
'''3)''' Turn the key from the '''OFF''' position to the '''ON''' position, then back to the '''OFF''' position, and then to the '''ON''' position again.<br />

= <big>'''Installation and preparation for operation'''</big> =<br />
<br />
== '''<big>Preparing the operating site</big>''' ==<br />
The product should be placed in an open area with free access to the equipment. There should be no significant obstacles '''(large buildings, groups of trees)''' within a minimum distance '''of 10 m around the site''' where the station is located.<br />
<br />
It is not recommended to install the product near surfaces that heat up significantly, such as roofs covered with roofing felt. It is not recommended to install the station near a motorway, as the vibration caused by the movement of heavy vehicles may affect the measurement results.<br />
<br />
Avoid sites on slopes or steep slopes descending in one direction '''(especially if this direction coincides with the prevailing wind direction)''' so that the selected site does not significantly distort the wind speed and direction.<br />
<br />
The installation site should be selected in an area that is typical of the surrounding terrain and does not differ from the surrounding area in terms of heat and moisture exchange characteristics. There should be a natural surface '''(grass, soil)''' near the location of the remote sensors.<br />
[[File:SOKOL-M1 1.png|center|frameless|681x681px]]<br />
<br />
For the correct operation of the precipitation, temperature, atmospheric pressure, and relative humidity sensors built into the weather station, the product should be installed at a height of '''2±0.05 m''' above the ground.<br />
<br />
It is recommended to place the external weather vane and anemometer at a height of '''10 m''' above the ground. Wind sensors can be placed on the roof of a house. In this case, they should be placed at a height of at least '''2-3 m above''' the upper edge of the roof.<br />
<br />
When installing the '''Sokol-DR 800''' distance sensor, the expected snowfall height in the area should be taken into account, and it should be installed '''no closer than 15 cm''' to the expected snowline.<br />
<br />
The order of installation and connection of the weather station's optional elements depends on their list and installation locations '''(mast, pole, tripod)'''. The installation of optional elements should be carried out '''from top to bottom''', starting with the highest sensor '''(device).'''<br />
<br />
'''<u>''Note''</u>''' – ''<u>The results of measurements of basic meteorological parameters at stations make it possible to interpolate measured values at any point within a homogeneous territory with a radius of '''50 to 60 km''' (for precipitation and atmospheric phenomena – within a radius of approximately '''15 to 20 km''').</u>''<br />
[[File:SOKOL-M1 2.png|center|frameless|705x705px]]<br />
<br />
== '''<big>Installation at the place of operation</big>''' ==<br />
The product should be installed on a support mast on a '''flat surface''' free from obstacles that could affect the product's readings.<br />
<br />
'''The maximum angle''' between the point where the weather station is attached to the support and the top of any obstructing objects should be '''45°''' to the horizontal surface.<br />
<br />
To minimize the effect of precipitation splash, '''it is recommended to avoid''' areas with hard surfaces such as metal, asphalt, or concrete. Instead, '''it is recommended''' '''to''' install the product on low grass, gravel, pebbles, or soft soil. '''Avoid sites''' on slopes or steep slopes descending in one direction (especially if this direction coincides with the prevailing wind direction) so that the selected site '''does not significantly distort''' wind speed and direction. '''It is not recommended to''' install the product on building roofs, as this '''may distort''' the measurement results.<br />
<br />
Before installing the '''SOKOL-M1''', it is necessary to prepare a mounting support for the product. Metal pipes or poles with an outer diameter of '''40 to 48 mm''' should be used as supports.<br />
<br />
'''<u>The product is installed in the following order:</u>'''<br />
<br />
− unpack the product;<br />
<br />
− check the componentss of the product in accordance with this operating manual. If the product is found to be incomplete, notify the supplier or the organization providing comprehensive centralized service, and consider the '''SOKOL-M1''' station not ready for use;<br />
<br />

== '''<big>Mounting on a tripod, mast, bracket, and pole</big>''' ==<br />
The '''SOKOL-M1''' weather station is installed on a tripod, mast, pole, or bracket as shown in '''Figure 8.'''<br />
<br />
The tripod for the '''SOKOL-M1''' weather station is not included in the delivery set and must be purchased separately.<br />
<br />
'''<u>''To mount the weather station on a tripod, you need to:''</u>'''<br />
<br />
'''1)''' Set up the tripod at the measurement site. The unevenness of the upper head of the tripod should not exceed 0.3 mm. Secure each leg of the tripod.<br />
<br />
'''<u>ATTENTION! ENSURE THAT THE TRIPOD IS STABLE.</u>'''<br />
<br />
'''2)''' Secure two '''MS1.70.10.02 pipe clamps (3)''' to the top of the tripod using '''U-bolts (4),''' '''washers (5), and nuts (6).'''<br />
<br />
'''3)''' Tighten the '''fastening nuts.''' Do not allow the weather station to rotate on the central pole. Secure the '''SOKOL-M1''' weather station installed on the central pole of the tripod '''(mast, bracket, pole)''' to the pole or mast.<br />
[[File:SOKOL-M1 10.png|center|frameless|715x715px]]<br />
<br />
= <big>'''Charging the battery, external power supply'''</big> =<br />
Before starting to use the weather station, and also when the '''battery is low''', it must be '''fully charged.''' The battery installed in the weather station is charged from '''three power sources:'''<br />
<br />
− '''sola'''r battery;<blockquote>'''The station’s internal battery is not charged by the solar panel on the station housing at temperatures below 0°C!'''</blockquote>− via a '''USB connector''' from an external power source;<br />
<br />
− via an '''8-25 VDC''' connector on the weather station from an external power source.<br />
<br />
'''The solar panel''' is an alternative power source that allows the weather station to operate in stand-alone mode. The '''USB and 12 V external power''' connectors are designed to efficiently charge the weather station's built-in rechargeable battery. To do this, it must be connected to a '''PC USB por'''t or a '''12 V DC''' power source.<br />
<br />
It takes '''up to 12 hours''' to fully charge the rechargeable batteries from a '''DC power source'''. When the battery is completely discharged, the charging mode can take '''more than 20 hours.''' When charging the station via '''USB,''' charging is very slow '''(from 12 hours),''' and when the battery is '''deeply discharged,''' the charging period can take '''about a day.''' Therefore, the best way to charge is from an '''external power source.'''<br />
<br />
The battery charge level can be checked either in the '''SokolCFG configurator''' in the '''Status tab''', in the '''Sokol mobile app''', or on the [[Natlogger]] server '''(Upow field)'''. The battery is considered '''fully charged''' when its voltage is approximately '''4.15±0.05''' V. The battery is considered discharged when its voltage is less than '''3.5 V.'''<br />
<br />
'''<u>Please note: if the station is connected to an external power source but the key is not turned to the ON position (i.e., the device's internal battery is not turned on), the station will not be charged.</u>'''<br />
<br />
'''<u>To restart or turn off the station, do the following:</u>'''<br />
<br />
'''1)''' Disconnect '''external power''' sources.<br />
<br />
'''2)''' Turn the key to the '''OFF''' position '''(if restarting is not necessary, skip step 3).'''<br />
<br />
'''3)''' Turn the key from the '''OFF''' position to the '''ON''' position, then back to the '''OFF''' position, and then to the '''ON''' position again.<br />

= <big>'''Installation and preparation for operation'''</big> =<br />
<br />
== '''<big>Preparing the operating site</big>''' ==<br />
The product should be placed in an open area with free access to the equipment. There should be no significant obstacles '''(large buildings, groups of trees)''' within a minimum distance '''of 10 m around the site''' where the station is located.<br />
<br />
It is not recommended to install the product near surfaces that heat up significantly, such as roofs covered with roofing felt. It is not recommended to install the station near a motorway, as the vibration caused by the movement of heavy vehicles may affect the measurement results.<br />
<br />
Avoid sites on slopes or steep slopes descending in one direction '''(especially if this direction coincides with the prevailing wind direction)''' so that the selected site does not significantly distort the wind speed and direction.<br />
<br />
The installation site should be selected in an area that is typical of the surrounding terrain and does not differ from the surrounding area in terms of heat and moisture exchange characteristics. There should be a natural surface '''(grass, soil)''' near the location of the remote sensors.<br />
[[File:SOKOL-M1 1.png|center|frameless|681x681px]]<br />
<br />
For the correct operation of the precipitation, temperature, atmospheric pressure, and relative humidity sensors built into the weather station, the product should be installed at a height of '''2±0.05 m''' above the ground.<br />
<br />
It is recommended to place the external weather vane and anemometer at a height of '''10 m''' above the ground. Wind sensors can be placed on the roof of a house. In this case, they should be placed at a height of at least '''2-3 m above''' the upper edge of the roof.<br />
<br />
When installing the '''Sokol-DR 800''' distance sensor, the expected snowfall height in the area should be taken into account, and it should be installed '''no closer than 15 cm''' to the expected snowline.<br />
<br />
The order of installation and connection of the weather station's optional elements depends on their list and installation locations '''(mast, pole, tripod)'''. The installation of optional elements should be carried out '''from top to bottom''', starting with the highest sensor '''(device).'''<br />
<br />
'''<u>''Note''</u>''' – ''<u>The results of measurements of basic meteorological parameters at stations make it possible to interpolate measured values at any point within a homogeneous territory with a radius of '''50 to 60 km''' (for precipitation and atmospheric phenomena – within a radius of approximately '''15 to 20 km''').</u>''<br />
[[File:SOKOL-M1 2.png|center|frameless|705x705px]]<br />
<br />
== '''<big>Installation at the place of operation</big>''' ==<br />
The product should be installed on a support mast on a '''flat surface''' free from obstacles that could affect the product's readings.<br />
<br />
'''The maximum angle''' between the point where the weather station is attached to the support and the top of any obstructing objects should be '''45°''' to the horizontal surface.<br />
<br />
To minimize the effect of precipitation splash, '''it is recommended to avoid''' areas with hard surfaces such as metal, asphalt, or concrete. Instead, '''it is recommended''' '''to''' install the product on low grass, gravel, pebbles, or soft soil. '''Avoid sites''' on slopes or steep slopes descending in one direction (especially if this direction coincides with the prevailing wind direction) so that the selected site '''does not significantly distort''' wind speed and direction. '''It is not recommended to''' install the product on building roofs, as this '''may distort''' the measurement results.<br />
<br />
Before installing the '''SOKOL-M1''', it is necessary to prepare a mounting support for the product. Metal pipes or poles with an outer diameter of '''40 to 48 mm''' should be used as supports.<br />
<br />
'''<u>The product is installed in the following order:</u>'''<br />
<br />
− unpack the product;<br />
<br />
− check the componentss of the product in accordance with this operating manual. If the product is found to be incomplete, notify the supplier or the organization providing comprehensive centralized service, and consider the '''SOKOL-M1''' station not ready for use;<br />
<br />
− Check the components of the product for damage. To do this, you must sequentially inspect all components of the product to check the condition of the power cables and interface cables for external mechanical damage.

== '''<big>Mounting on a tripod, mast, bracket, and pole</big>''' ==<br />
The '''SOKOL-M1''' weather station is installed on a tripod, mast, pole, or bracket as shown in '''Figure 8.'''<br />
<br />
The tripod for the '''SOKOL-M1''' weather station is not included in the delivery set and must be purchased separately.<br />
<br />
'''<u>''To mount the weather station on a tripod, you need to:''</u>'''<br />
<br />
'''1)''' Set up the tripod at the measurement site. The unevenness of the upper head of the tripod should not exceed 0.3 mm. Secure each leg of the tripod.<br />
<br />
'''<u>ATTENTION! ENSURE THAT THE TRIPOD IS STABLE.</u>'''<br />
<br />
'''2)''' Secure two '''MS1.70.10.02 pipe clamps (3)''' to the top of the tripod using '''U-bolts (4),''' '''washers (5), and nuts (6).'''<br />
<br />
'''3)''' Tighten the '''fastening nuts.''' Do not allow the weather station to rotate on the central pole. Secure the '''SOKOL-M1''' weather station installed on the central pole of the tripod '''(mast, bracket, pole)''' to the pole or mast.<br />
[[File:SOKOL-M1 10.png|center|frameless|715x715px]]<br />
<br />
= <big>'''Charging the battery, external power supply'''</big> =<br />
Before starting to use the weather station, and also when the '''battery is low''', it must be '''fully charged.''' The battery installed in the weather station is charged from '''three power sources:'''<br />
<br />
− '''sola'''r battery;<blockquote>'''The station’s internal battery is not charged by the solar panel on the station housing at temperatures below 0°C!'''</blockquote>− via a '''USB connector''' from an external power source;<br />
<br />
− via an '''8-25 VDC''' connector on the weather station from an external power source.<br />
<br />
'''The solar panel''' is an alternative power source that allows the weather station to operate in stand-alone mode. The '''USB and 12 V external power''' connectors are designed to efficiently charge the weather station's built-in rechargeable battery. To do this, it must be connected to a '''PC USB por'''t or a '''12 V DC''' power source.<br />
<br />
It takes '''up to 12 hours''' to fully charge the rechargeable batteries from a '''DC power source'''. When the battery is completely discharged, the charging mode can take '''more than 20 hours.''' When charging the station via '''USB,''' charging is very slow '''(from 12 hours),''' and when the battery is '''deeply discharged,''' the charging period can take '''about a day.''' Therefore, the best way to charge is from an '''external power source.'''<br />
<br />
The battery charge level can be checked either in the '''SokolCFG configurator''' in the '''Status tab''', in the '''Sokol mobile app''', or on the [[Natlogger]] server '''(Upow field)'''. The battery is considered '''fully charged''' when its voltage is approximately '''4.15±0.05''' V. The battery is considered discharged when its voltage is less than '''3.5 V.'''<br />
<br />
'''<u>Please note: if the station is connected to an external power source but the key is not turned to the ON position (i.e., the device's internal battery is not turned on), the station will not be charged.</u>'''<br />
<br />
'''<u>To restart or turn off the station, do the following:</u>'''<br />
<br />
'''1)''' Disconnect '''external power''' sources.<br />
<br />
'''2)''' Turn the key to the '''OFF''' position '''(if restarting is not necessary, skip step 3).'''<br />
<br />
'''3)''' Turn the key from the '''OFF''' position to the '''ON''' position, then back to the '''OFF''' position, and then to the '''ON''' position again.<br />

= <big>'''Installation and preparation for operation'''</big> =<br />
<br />
== '''<big>Preparing the operating site</big>''' ==<br />
The product should be placed in an open area with free access to the equipment. There should be no significant obstacles '''(large buildings, groups of trees)''' within a minimum distance '''of 10 m around the site''' where the station is located.<br />
<br />
It is not recommended to install the product near surfaces that heat up significantly, such as roofs covered with roofing felt. It is not recommended to install the station near a motorway, as the vibration caused by the movement of heavy vehicles may affect the measurement results.<br />
<br />
Avoid sites on slopes or steep slopes descending in one direction '''(especially if this direction coincides with the prevailing wind direction)''' so that the selected site does not significantly distort the wind speed and direction.<br />
<br />
The installation site should be selected in an area that is typical of the surrounding terrain and does not differ from the surrounding area in terms of heat and moisture exchange characteristics. There should be a natural surface '''(grass, soil)''' near the location of the remote sensors.<br />
[[File:SOKOL-M1 1.png|center|frameless|681x681px]]<br />
<br />
For the correct operation of the precipitation, temperature, atmospheric pressure, and relative humidity sensors built into the weather station, the product should be installed at a height of '''2±0.05 m''' above the ground.<br />
<br />
It is recommended to place the external weather vane and anemometer at a height of '''10 m''' above the ground. Wind sensors can be placed on the roof of a house. In this case, they should be placed at a height of at least '''2-3 m above''' the upper edge of the roof.<br />
<br />
When installing the '''Sokol-DR 800''' distance sensor, the expected snowfall height in the area should be taken into account, and it should be installed '''no closer than 15 cm''' to the expected snowline.<br />
<br />
The order of installation and connection of the weather station's optional elements depends on their list and installation locations '''(mast, pole, tripod)'''. The installation of optional elements should be carried out '''from top to bottom''', starting with the highest sensor '''(device).'''<br />
<br />
'''<u>''Note''</u>''' – ''<u>The results of measurements of basic meteorological parameters at stations make it possible to interpolate measured values at any point within a homogeneous territory with a radius of '''50 to 60 km''' (for precipitation and atmospheric phenomena – within a radius of approximately '''15 to 20 km''').</u>''<br />

== '''<big>Installation at the place of operation</big>''' ==<br />
The product should be installed on a support mast on a '''flat surface''' free from obstacles that could affect the product's readings.<br />
<br />
'''The maximum angle''' between the point where the weather station is attached to the support and the top of any obstructing objects should be '''45°''' to the horizontal surface.<br />
<br />
To minimize the effect of precipitation splash, '''it is recommended to avoid''' areas with hard surfaces such as metal, asphalt, or concrete. Instead, '''it is recommended''' '''to''' install the product on low grass, gravel, pebbles, or soft soil. '''Avoid sites''' on slopes or steep slopes descending in one direction (especially if this direction coincides with the prevailing wind direction) so that the selected site '''does not significantly distort''' wind speed and direction. '''It is not recommended to''' install the product on building roofs, as this '''may distort''' the measurement results.<br />
<br />
Before installing the '''SOKOL-M1''', it is necessary to prepare a mounting support for the product. Metal pipes or poles with an outer diameter of '''40 to 48 mm''' should be used as supports.<br />
<br />

<br />
= <big>'''Charging the battery, external power supply'''</big> =<br />
Before starting to use the weather station, and also when the '''battery is low''', it must be '''fully charged.''' The battery installed in the weather station is charged from '''three power sources:'''<br />
<br />
− '''sola'''r battery;<blockquote>'''The station’s internal battery is not charged by the solar panel on the station housing at temperatures below 0°C!'''</blockquote>− via a '''USB connector''' from an external power source;<br />
<br />
− via an '''8-25 VDC''' connector on the weather station from an external power source.<br />
<br />
'''The solar panel''' is an alternative power source that allows the weather station to operate in stand-alone mode. The '''USB and 12 V external power''' connectors are designed to efficiently charge the weather station's built-in rechargeable battery. To do this, it must be connected to a '''PC USB por'''t or a '''12 V DC''' power source.<br />
<br />
It takes '''up to 12 hours''' to fully charge the rechargeable batteries from a '''DC power source'''. When the battery is completely discharged, the charging mode can take '''more than 20 hours.''' When charging the station via '''USB,''' charging is very slow '''(from 12 hours),''' and when the battery is '''deeply discharged,''' the charging period can take '''about a day.''' Therefore, the best way to charge is from an '''external power source.'''<br />
<br />
The battery charge level can be checked either in the '''SokolCFG configurator''' in the '''Status tab''', in the '''Sokol mobile app''', or on the [[Natlogger]] server '''(Upow field)'''. The battery is considered '''fully charged''' when its voltage is approximately '''4.15±0.05''' V. The battery is considered discharged when its voltage is less than '''3.5 V.'''<br />
<br />
'''<u>Please note: if the station is connected to an external power source but the key is not turned to the ON position (i.e., the device's internal battery is not turned on), the station will not be charged.</u>'''<br />
<br />
'''<u>To restart or turn off the station, do the following:</u>'''<br />
<br />
'''1)''' Disconnect '''external power''' sources.<br />
<br />
'''2)''' Turn the key to the '''OFF''' position '''(if restarting is not necessary, skip step 3).'''<br />
<br />
'''3)''' Turn the key from the '''OFF''' position to the '''ON''' position, then back to the '''OFF''' position, and then to the '''ON''' position again.<br />

= <big>'''General information'''</big> =<br />
When working with the '''Sokol-M1 station''', data can be retrieved not only '''via GSM or a direct USB''' connection, but also by polling using '''third-party software and various RS-485 converters.'''<br />
<br />
Below are '''instructions''' for '''<u>configuring, connecting, and polling the station</u>''' using an '''RS-485''' interface converter, as well as for polling '''via Modbus.'''<br />
<br />
= '''Configuring the station for Modbus operation''' =<br />
To connect the '''meteo station''' for '''Modbus''' polling via a computer or '''third-party hardware/software''' using an '''RS-485 converter''', you must configure '''the station itself.'''<br />
<br />
<br />
Install the '''[https://www.fmeter.ru/download/_ftp/meteo-kontrol/sokol-m/%D0%9A%D0%BE%D0%BD%D1%84%D0%B8%D0%B3%D1%83%D1%80%D0%B0%D1%82%D0%BE%D1%80%20%D0%B4%D0%BB%D1%8F%20%D0%A1%D0%9E%D0%9A%D0%9E%D0%9B-%D0%9C.zip Sokol CFG]''' configurator, as well as the '''system component and library files from Microsoft''' if necessary. '''The drivers''' can be found in '''the folder containing the Sokol CFG configurator''' or downloaded from [https://www.fmeter.ru/download/_ftp/other/Component_registration.zip?v=270519154504 '''this link'''.] When these files are installed, a message should appear stating, '''“RuntimePack installed!”'''<br />
<br />
You must also install '''the drivers''' to properly connect the station '''via USB''' and configure it.<br />
<br />
'''<u>[https://www.fmeter.ru/download/_ftp/escort_c-200m/Driver_for_Escort_C-200.zip?v=200320144623 Link to download drivers for the Sokol-M1 station]</u>'''<br />
<br />
<br />
When you connect the '''USB cable''' from the station to '''the computer,''' the device should be recognized as '''"STMicroelectronics Virtual COM Port":'''<br />
[[File:Device manager window.png|center|frameless|608x608px]]<br />
<blockquote>''<u>'''If the port is detected but marked with an exclamation point, either the device is out of power and there isn’t enough power for the COM port to function, or you need to switch USB ports and reconnect it several times. Do not connect the device via a USB hub.'''</u>''</blockquote>Launch the Sokol Meteo Configurator, select the appropriate COM port, and click '''“Open Port.”''' Enter the password by clicking the '''“Enter Password”''' button. The default password is '''222.'''<br />
[[File:Sokol-CFG+Sokol-M1 password.png|center|frameless|662x662px]]<br />
<br />
<br />
Next, select '''“Transmission Channel”''' as '''MB Only or GSM.'''<br />
<br />
'''<u>Important! In firmware version 1.3.5 and later, you must check the “Do not sleep” box.</u>'''<br />
<br />
Then click the '''“Set”''' button.<br />
[[File:Sokol-CFG+ Sokol-M1 settings 2.png|center|frameless|669x669px]]<br />
<br />
<br />
By default, the station is set to '''"1 network address."''' You can '''<u>change or check this setting</u>''' in the configurator under the '''"Server"''' tab.<br />

<br />
== '''Power supply''' ==<br />
To ensure the station operates correctly '''via Modbus''', verify the following connection points:<br />
<br />
* Station power supply. Be sure to turn the switch as follows: from the '''OFF position to ON''', then back to '''OFF''', and then to '''ON again'''. '''<u>An external power supply</u>''' must also be connected to the station<br />
<br />

Next, you need to connect the station to an '''RS-485''' '''converter''' (such as the '''C200M2 or Bolid''') via the station’s '''Modbus''' input. You can use '''any other RS-485 converter,''' provided you follow the pinout. The pinout for the station’s Modbus cable is as follows. <br />

<br />
== '''Pinout and Connection of RS-485 Converters (C200M2)''' ==<br />
To ensure the station operates correctly via the '''C200M2 or Bolid RS-485 converter''', you must verify that the '''wires are connected correctly''' and that the '''pinout is correct'''. You must also install the '''correct drivers''' so that the converters are recognized by the computer system.<br />

[[File:Image2.png|thumb|'''<big>Current design: central unit, measurement unit</big>''']]<br />
The load monitoring system '''eCargosens''' (hereinafter - '''“System”''') for vehicles with air suspension is designed to monitor the load of every axis of the vehicle’s chassis based on the measurement of the air pressure in the air suspension’s system.<br />
<br />
The '''eCargosens''' system consists of one eCargosens '''DS central unit''' (hereinafter - “'''central unit'''”) and several measurement units or '''eCargosens Air''' sensors (hereinafter - '''“Sensor”''' or '''“Sensors”'''). The number of Sensors installed on the vehicle depends on the '''number of axes''' the vehicle has<br />
<br />
The Sensors measure the air pressure and - subsequently - the weight (load). The '''central unit''' perfoms the function of receiving data from '''sensors''' via the '''BLE 5.0 LR''' channel (data transfer protocol - '''Escort BLE eCargosens''') and their further transmission to a tracker device (for example, a '''GPS/GLONASS''' navigation terminal) via '''RS-485''' interface (data transfer protocol - '''LLS''').<br />
<br />
More detailed technical specifications (central unit) are presented in [https://www.fmeter.ru/download/_ftp/eng/eCargosens-wireless-axle-load-monitoring-system/Datasheet%20Escort%20Central%20Unit%20eCargosens%20DS.pdf?v=050623133704 the device's data sheet.]<br />
<br />
More detailed technical specifications (sensor) are presented in [https://www.fmeter.ru/download/_ftp/eng/eCargosens-wireless-axle-load-monitoring-system/Datasheet%20Escort%20Axle%20Load%20Sensor%20eCargosens%20Air.pdf?v=050623133704 the device's data sheet.]<br />
<br />
= '''<big>Operating and data transmission principles</big>''' =<br />
The Sensors must be connected to the air suspension system of the vehicle. They measure the air pressure in the air suspension and calculate the weight that is distributed onto a particular axis based on a calibration table that must be created and saved in their memory.<br />
[[File:Imag1.png|center|frameless|754x754px]]<br />
<br />
The Sensor(s) transmit their parameters to the central unit via '''Bluetooth 5.0''' in accordance with the '''Escort BLE eCargosens''' data communication protocol.<br />
<br />
The Sensors transmit their data packages '''every 2 seconds'''.<br />
<br />
The air pressure is measured '''every 30 seconds''' but the measurement are filtered ('''median filtration''' 5) and then processed by a '''special algorithm'''.<br />
<br />
The central unit then retransmits the data received from the Sensor(s) to a GPS tracker/gateway via the '''RS-485''' interface in accordance with the '''LLS''' communication protocol.<br />
<br />
'''<big>The parameters transmitted by the Sensor(s):</big>'''<br />
<br />
- '''Weight''' or axle load in '''kg''' (provided that the '''calibration table''' is stored in a Sensor’s memory);<br />
<br />
- Air pressure in '''Pa''';<br />
<br />
- Battery charge in '''V''';<br />
<br />
'''<big>The parameters retransmitted by the central unit:</big>'''<br />
<br />
- '''Weight''' or axle load in '''kg''' (provided that the '''calibration table''' is stored in a Sensor’s memory); as received from the Sensor(s);<br />
<br />
- Air pressure in '''Pa'''; as received from the Sensor(s);<br />
<br />
- Battery charge in '''V'''; as received from the Sensor(s);<br />
<br />
- '''RSSI''' as calculated by the central unit for every Sensor in particular;<br />
<br />
==== '''<big>Note for developers</big>''' ====<br />
The central unit retransmits the parameters as per the LLS protocol in response to the request for level and temperature (because the LLS protocol was initially designed for the transmission of fuel level sensor) <br />
<br />
31$XX$06$CRC-8 Maxim (XX stands for the network address from 00 to FF in HEX (0…255 in DEC));<br />
<br />
The data output is transmitted as 3E$XX$06$TT$LVLV$CRC-8 Maxim, where<br />
<br />
XX -network address, <br />
<br />
TT - temperature parameter (1 byte, HEX value), <br />
<br />
LVLV - level value (2 bytes, little endian);<br />
<br />
Thus, one network address is used to transmit one pair of parameters sent by the Sensor(s) and retransmitted by the central unit.<br />
<br />
The Pressure readings is transmitted after it is divided by 100. F.e. the Pressure reading is 700345 Pa but the value transmitted via the RS-485 interface will be 7003.<br />

'''ATTENTION!''' The tracker/gateway you plan to connect the central unit to must have the RS-485 interface, the LLS protocol and support as many network addresses as you need for the transmission of all relevant Sensor’s parameters.<br />
<br />
= '''<big>Installation and configuration</big>''' =<br />
'''<big>Before installing the sensor you need to:</big>'''<br />
<br />
- Inspect the air suspension system;<br />
<br />
- Measure the diameter of the tubes that connect the air springs of the air suspension and buy the fittings to be able to connect the Sensors’ tubes to the air suspension’s tubes;<br />
<br />
The standard diameter of the Sensor’s tubes is ⌀ '''10mm'''.<br />
<br />
The Sensor’s connecting to the air spring is shown on the figures below:<br />
[[File:123.png|center|frameless|631x631px]]<br />

[[File:Imagege.png|center|frameless|726x726px]]<br />
[[File:Imagedasd2.png|center|frameless|764x764px]]<br />
Before installing the sensor be sure to write down their serial numbers and MAC addresses and what axis every Sensors is to be installed at:<br />
[[File:Imagefdsfe.png|center|frameless|536x536px]]<br />
<br />
== '''<big>Pairing Sensors with central unit</big>''' ==<br />
Once the sensors are installed, you need to pair them with the '''central unit''' and configure them.<br />
<br />
To connect the central unit and configure it via the app, connect its '''red (PWR)''' and '''black (GND)''' wires to a power supply.<br />
<br />
Run the '''app''' (available in '''AppStore''' and '''Play Market'''), ensure that the '''geolocation''' service of your smartphone is On and the app has the '''permission to access''' it. Enable the '''Bluetooth'''.<br />
<br />

<br />
[[File:Imagevvfd.png|center|frameless|648x648px]]<br />
<br />
<br />
Then select the language should it be necessary and press Start. Then tap on the central unit you need.<br />
[[File:Imageczxc.png|center|frameless|659x659px]]<br />
<br />
<br />
Scroll down and tap '''Sensor settings'''. Enter the integrator’s password '''(666666 by default)'''<br />
[[File:Imagebdftr.png|center|frameless|641x641px]]<br />
<br />
<br />
Tap on the '''+''' button. Enter the user password '''(000000 by default)'''. Then enter the '''MAC''' of the sensor.<br />
[[File:Imagedasdc.png|center|frameless|630x630px]]<br />
<br />
<br />
Then enter the '''MAC''' of the sensor. You can add as many sensors as you need (up to '''10''' sensors to one central unit) .<br />
[[File:Image21папв.png|center|frameless|622x622px]]<br />
<br />
<br />
To disconnect the sensor, press and hold it until the '''Disconnect''' button appears then '''press it''' and delete the sensor.<br />
[[File:Imageпап3.png|center|frameless]]<br />
<br />
== '''<big>Sensor calibration</big>''' ==<br />
'''To calibrate''' the Sensor, you need '''to weigh the axis''' it is installed at when the vehicle’s semi trailer or trailer is '''empty''' and when it is '''loaded''' at around '''30-40%''' of '''max load'''. The load must be placed in a '''fashion''' that would ensure that the weight is distributed between the axes '''more or less equally'''.<br />
<br />
You will need '''vehicle scales'''. Put them on an '''even''' surface. Make sure that once the axis is placed on the scales it remains on the '''same level''' as the '''other axes'''.<br />
<br />
Then write down the Pressure value and the weight value. You need '''two pairs of Pressure''' - Weight values to '''save''' them in every Sensor’s memory.<br />
[[File:Imageваппк.png|center|frameless|647x647px]]<br />
<br />
<br />
After that, open the app, connect the central unit, open '''Sensor settings''' menu and select the sensor you need to calibrate. <br />
<br />
<br />
When you connect the Sensor for the '''1st time''', you will be required to '''set up a password'''. From there on every time you connect the sensor the app will require you to enter the previously set password.<br />
[[File:Image6535g.png|center|frameless|631x631px]]<br />
<br />
<br />
Once the sensor’s menu is open, you can see its current readings. Tap on the '''Calibrate''' button to open the '''calibration menu'''.<br />
[[File:Imagedsaf31.png|center|frameless|646x646px]]<br />
<br />
Next, press the '''+''' button. Then enter the Pressure reading (from the screen with the Sensor’s data) and Weight reading (from the scales) and tap '''Enter'''.<br />
<br />
To edit the table, '''press and hold''' one of its lines then either add one more line, change the selected one or delete it.<br />
<br />
After the table is finished tap on the '''Save button'''. Repeat the procedure of weighing and setting the table for every sensor. <br />
<br />
You can add more than '''2 lines''' should you have the possibility to weigh every axis while the load in the semi trailer is different but '''2 lines''' will do in most cases. The max number of lines - '''20'''.<br />
[[File:Imagegt42g.png|center|frameless|643x643px]]<br />
<br />
== '''<big>RS-485 settings</big>''' ==<br />
To enable the transmission of the data the central unit receives from the Sensors paired with it via Bluetooth to a GPS tracker/gateway by means of the '''RS-485''' interface, connect the central unit and open the '''RS-485''' settings menu. Select one of the paired Sensors there.<br />
[[File:Imagevzxccw.png|center|frameless|648x648px]]<br />
<br />
<br />
Then select the pair of parameters you need transmitted and enable it. After that select the network address that will be used for the transmission of that pair from the central unit to the GPS tracker/gateway.<br />
[[File:Imagegvdfg43.png|center|frameless|633x633px]]<br />
<br />
<br />
'''<big>ATTENTION! Ensure that every pair of parameters in every Sensor’s menu is assigned a unique network address. If you have several other wired sensors connected to the same GPS tracker/gateway via the RS-485 interface, remember that they also already occupy one or several network addresses so you need to avoid assigning the central unit any of those network address.</big>'''<br />
<br />
<br />
For example, if there’s a wired FLS that had been assigned the network '''address 1''', the address 1 '''cannot be''' assigned to the '''central unit'''. <br />
<br />
Note that the app could be reading “'''All network addresses are free'''” but the app cannot check if there any other wired sensors connected to your tracker/gateway. It only checks what network addresses had been assigned to every paired Sensor in the central unit’s configuration.<br />
<br />
== '''<big>Data view</big>''' ==<br />
You, your customer or the truck’s driver can access the '''current readings''' transmitted by the Sensors '''via the app'''.<br />
<br />
Connect the '''central unit'''.<br />
[[File:Imagegrgt4353.png|center|frameless|656x656px]]<br />
<br />
<br />
Then tap '''View data'''. On the next screen the app will show the readings of all Sensors paired with the central unit.<br />
[[File:Imagevver5.png|center|frameless|659x659px]]<br />
<br />
<br />
'''ATTENTION! When selecting the spot at which to install the central unit, be sure to check if the average RSSI of every sensor as measured within 2-3 minutes is within the -35 dBm to -100 dBm range. If it is not, try moving the central unit closer to the sensors to minimize the risks of connection losses in future!'''<br />
<br />
== '''<big>How many sensors are required?</big>''' ==<br />
The general recommendation is to install '''as many as sensors as many axes the vehicle has'''. In other words: '''1 axis = 1 sensor'''.<br />
<br />
It is possible that in some cases, '''one sensor''' could be used to monitor the load on several axes provided that the air springs that support those axes are united into '''one suspension circuit'''.<br />
<br />
'''<big>The following are a few examples of possible installation of several sensors:</big>'''<br />
[[File:Imagedsd13.png|center|frameless|594x594px]]<br />
A and B are possible slots where the '''2 sensors''' would have to be installed to monitor the load of '''every axis'''.<br />
<br />
[[File:Imageg546345.png|center|frameless|640x640px]]<br />
In this case it is possible that '''only one sensor''' could be installed either at point '''A or B'''.<br />
<br />
However, you would need to be collecting the pressure readings of the sensor and have '''2 virtual sensors''' on your '''monitoring platform''' (the '''calibration tables''' would have to be saved and applied in those virtual sensors).<br />
<br />
[[File:Imageп243м2.png|center|frameless|610x610px]]<br />
In this case it is possible that only '''one sensor''' could be installed either at point '''A''' or '''B'''.<br />
<br />
However, you would need to be collecting the pressure readings of the sensor and have '''2 virtual sensors''' on your '''monitoring platform''' (the '''calibration tables''' would have to be saved and applied in those virtual sensors).<br />
<br />
[[File:Image1241а13.png|center|frameless|669x669px]]<br />
In this case either '''6 or 3 sensors''' could be installed ('''1''' or '''2''' per axis) to monitor the axle load.<br />
<br />
It is still possible that the load distributed between the two out of three axes could be '''more or less equal''' and therefore '''1 or 2 sensors''' could be enough.<br />
<br />
However, if '''one of the axes is a liftable one''', installing one sensor on it is '''obligatory'''.<br />
<br />
== '''<big>Configuration of virtual sensor for steering (spring) axle</big>''' ==<br />
To calculate a '''total weight of a semi-trailer truck''' it’s necessary to weigh both the '''steering and the rear axis of a truck''' ('''dump truck''') without a '''semi-trailer''' (if '''dump truck''', without a '''cargo'''). If there are several front and\or rear axles, it’s necessary to '''weigh each'''.<br />
<br />
Next, in the Sensor configuration menu, press '''+''' the button and select the '''Add the head axle''' option.<br />
[[File:Imagewewqe21.png|center|frameless|612x612px]]<br />
<br />
<br />
After that a virtual sensor for a steering axle will be created and it will have a '''MAC FF:FF:FF:FF:FF:F1'''<br />
[[File:Image42341.png|center|frameless|530x530px]]<br />
In the settings fill the '''Number of rear axle №1''' with a sensor’s number, that is installed on a '''rear axle'''. A sensor’s number is determined by its position from '''1st to 10th''' in the list.<br />
<br />
'''Enter''' the weight of a '''rear axle''' without a semi-trailer in '''Load of rear axle №'''<br />
<br />
<br />
In case there are '''several rear axles''', '''add another one''' by pressing the button then enter the number of a sensor installed on it and also its weight '''without a semi-trailer'''. To delete an accidentally created rear axle, press the '''+ button'''.<br />
[[File:Image231d1.png|center|frameless|632x632px]]<br />
<br />
<br />
Then enter the following aspects:<br />
<br />
1) a '''weight of a truck''' (calculated by adding up the weight of all its axles without a semi-trailer) or the weight of a dump truck<br />
<br />
<br />
2) a '''distance''' between the front axle center and the rear axle center<br />
<br />
<br />
3) a '''distance''' between the front axle center and a trailing arm (or a gravity center of a dumper). The value '''should not be more''' than a distance between the front axle center and the rear axle center or totally equal to it.<br />
<br />
<br />
4) a '''distance''' between the front steering axles (in case they are two); if there is only one steering axle, enter the '''minimum value of 51 cm'''.<br />
<br />
<br />
5) select the '''2 rear axles mode''', if there are '''two steering axles'''<br />
<br />
<br />
6) press the '''Save''' button<br />
[[File:Imageв12в121.png|center|frameless]]<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
'''WARNING! The central unit computes a weight of a steering axle and a total weight of a semi-trailer truck, only if the calibration tables are saved in the sensors’ memory!!!'''<br />
<br />
'''ATTENTION! To successfully use the "2 rear axles" mode, a second virtual steering axle with the same settings as the first must be added to the central unit. Both virtual sensors must have the "two rear axles" mode selected.'''<br />
<br />
== '''<big>Configuring the virtual steering (spring) axle sensor when there are two sensors on the rear axle</big>''' ==<br />
In addition, one of the latest firmware versions (1.1.6) introduced a feature for calculating the steering axis when more than one sensor is installed on the drive axles (to calculate the average reading from two sensors per axle).<br />
<br />
'''<u>Below are screenshots of the settings</u>''':<br />
<br />
After adding a virtual steering axis sensor with '''MAC address FF:FF:FF:FF:FF:F1''', you need to access its settings by clicking on it.<br />
[[File:ECargosens Air sensors page 1.jpg|center|frameless]]<br />
<br />
<br />
1) In the settings, in the '''"Rear Sensor No. 1.1"''' field, enter the serial number of '''<u>one of the sensors installed on the truck's rear axle</u>''' (semi-trailer axles are not required).<br />
<br />
'''<u>The sensor's serial number is determined by its position in the list, numbered from 1 to 10 from top to bottom.</u>'''<br />
<br />
1.2) In the settings, in the '''"Rear Sensor No. 1.2"''' field, specify the serial number of '''<u>the second sensor installed on the same rear axle of the truck</u>''' (semi-trailer axles are not required). '''(Add by clicking the "+" button.)'''<br />
<br />
'''<u>The sensor's serial number is determined by its position in the list, numbered from 1 to 10 from top to bottom.</u>'''<br />
<br />
2) Enter '''the rear axle weight''' (without the semi-trailer) in the '''"Rear Axle Load No."''' field.<br />
<br />
<u>If the truck has '''multiple rear axles''' and each is equipped with '''two sensors''', you must add '''another rear axle.'''</u><br />
<br />
<br />
Use the '''"+" (plus)''' button to specify the serial number of the sensor installed on it and its weight without the semi-trailer. To delete an accidentally created rear axle, click the '''(Trash Can)''' button.<br />
[[File:Steering axle settings 1.jpg|left|frameless]]<br />
[[File:Steering axle settings 2.jpg|frameless]]<br />
<br />
<br />
Next, you must specify:<br />
<br />
1) '''the weight of the truck''' unit (the sum of the weights of all its axles, excluding the semi-trailer) or the weight of the dump truck<br />
<br />
2) '''the distance''' from the center of the front axle to the center of the rear axles<br />
<br />
3) '''the distance''' from the center of the front axle to the coupling device (the center of gravity of the dump body). This value '''cannot be greater''' than or equal to the distance from the center of the front axle to the center of the rear<br />
<br />
4) '''The distance between''' the front steering axles (if there are two); if there is only one steering axle, enter '''the minimum value of 51 cm'''<br />
<br />
5) Select the '''"two-axle truck"''' operating mode if there '''are two''' steering axles<br />
<br />
6) Click '''"Save"'''<br />
[[File:Steering axle settings 3.jpg|center|frameless]]<br />
<br />
<br />
'''<big>ATTENTION! The cab unit will calculate the weight of the steering axle and the total weight of the truck-trailer combination only if the calibration tables are stored in the sensors' memory!!!</big>'''<br />
<br />
'''<big>ATTENTION! To successfully use the "two-axle tractor" mode, you must add a second virtual steering axle to the cab unit with the same settings as the first one. The "two-axle" mode must be selected for both virtual sensors.</big>'''<br />
<br />
.<br />
<br />
To '''delete''' a virtual sensor of a steering axle, hold its button until the '''Disconnect''' option appears.<br />
[[File:Image45м45.png|center|frameless]]<br />
<br />
<br />
To view the '''steering axle readings''' from a peripheral device (e.g a GPS tracker) via the '''RS-485 interface''', go to the '''RS-485 configuration''' section to select a '''virtual sensor of a steering axle'''. Enable the '''Weight, RSSI''' parameter and set a certain network address for it.<br />
[[File:Image21312с1.png|center|frameless|615x615px]]<br />
<br />
<br />
To '''connect''' a central unit to an '''I5 indicator''' in order to view the sum of all the sensors, including the virtual sensor of a steering axle, '''configure''' the i5 so it’s able to '''read or request''' the network addresses that are set for the certain sensors in the central unit. In the I5’s '''Display settings''' select the '''TD total level''' option.<br />
<br />
= '''Connecting the cabin unit to the I-5 digital display''' =<br />
The eCargosens cabin unit is connected to the '''digital "I-5 Display"''' for data output to the screen in accordance with our general pinout shown below ('''"Connection to the GPS Terminal"'''). Simply connect lines A and B of the display to the cabin unit, and connect the display to the power source in the same way as the cabin unit.<br />
<br />
'''NOTE: If the pressure value is displayed on the indicator, due to technical limitations, only the first 5 digits of the pressure value will be shown in the window.'''<br />
<br />
'''You can also display the total data from all sensors and the average data for each axis, but only one of the two at a time.'''<br />
<br />
== <big>'''Connecting the cabin unit'''</big> ==<br />
If you need to connect the '''cabin unit''' only to the '''I-5'''—that is, if there will be no GPS tracker or other device to which the eCargosens system will be connected—you must connect the in-cab unit to the I-5, then select '''"Active Mode"''' in the mode settings and configure the polling interval (the I-5 will send requests).<br />
<br />
If, however, the cabin unit will be used in conjunction with the I-5 indicator and a GPS tracker/terminal, you should select '''Passive Mode.'''<br />

To pair the cabin unit and the sensors, tap '''"Connect Sensors"''' (Fig. 13, 2). Then tap the '''"+"''' button (Fig. 14). <br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
[[File:Imageeqwe1212.png|center|frameless|624x624px]]<br />
<br />
<br />
Next, select the '''"Wired"''' option, enter the network address (the value can range from 1 to 255), and click '''"Connect" (Fig. 23)'''. If the I-5 is not configured to operate in active RS-485 mode, or if there is no GPS tracker/gateway or other device that could request data from the sensor so that the I-5 can listen to the sensor’s response and display its readings, the data from the sensor will be displayed as 0 (Fig. 24).<br />
<br />
The sensor’s network address can be found and, if necessary, changed in the eCargosens mobile app<br />
<br />
'''Important! Each sensor connected via the RS-485 interface must have a unique network address.'''<br />
<br />
To have the I-5 send data requests to the cabin unit connected to it, open the '''Settings mode menu (Fig. 27, 4)'''. '''Passive mode''' is set by default '''(Fig. 28).'''<br />
<br />
If your eCargosens system will operate together with the '''I-5 indicator''' and a '''GPS terminal,''' leave '''Passive mode''' selected; no changes are necessary.<br />
[[File:Image3123dqw.png|center|frameless|611x611px]]<br />

<br />
== <big>'''Calibration of trailer axles when only one sensor is installed'''</big> ==<br />
In situations where only one sensor is installed on the semi-trailer but you need to display the weight of each axle separately on the I5 indicator screen or monitoring platform, you can use this method.<br />
[[File:ECargosens settings page app 4.png|center|frameless|618x618px]]<br />
<br />
<br />
In the app's main menu, go to the RS485 Settings section and select the sensor installed on the semi-trailer. In this menu, you can configure RS485 data transmission to the required addresses. Select the options as shown in the image: '''"Weight, RSSI," "Pressure, RSSI," "Pressure, Battery Voltage(Vbat)"'''<br />
<br />
<br />
Thus, the I5 display can provide information on the pressure and weight of the semi-trailer’s axles. The weight can be displayed on one of the I5 screens without recalculation, but to obtain the weights of the other axles, a calibration (weighing) table must be added in the corresponding menu of the display. When weighing the axles of a semi-trailer, the scales may show different masses on the axles even with the same load in the semi-trailer; therefore, the weighing tables for different axles may vary.<br />
<br />
<blockquote>It is important to remember that pressure values transmitted via RS-485 are reduced by a factor of 100. For example, 65,000 Pa will be transmitted as 650; '''therefore, when creating the calibration table in the I5 indicator, the pressure value must be divided by 100 before entering it into the table.'''</blockquote><br />
<br />
<br />
You can upload the table itself to the '''I-5 display.'''<br />
<br />
To do this, you need to:<br />
<br />
1) Select the sensor in the '''I-5 display''' on the connection page and click on it; this will open the sensor settings menu:<br />
[[File:I-5 sensor settings 1.jpg|center|frameless]]<br />
<br />
<br />
2) Then click the red '''"Go to Calibration"''' button<br />
[[File:I-5 sensor settings 2.jpg|center|frameless]]<br />
<blockquote>Please note that you can import the table using an existing calibration file or enter the data manually.</blockquote><br />
<br />
<br />
3) If you select '''"Select a file"''' the file explorer on your smartphone will open. Navigate to the folder where you saved the calibration file and select the desired file.<br />
[[File:File directory example 1.png|center|frameless|539x539px]]<br />
<br />
<br />
4) Then select the '''"Apply calibration table"''' checkbox.<br />

[[File:Image2.png|thumb|'''<big>Current design: central unit, measurement unit</big>''']]<br />
The load monitoring system '''eCargosens''' (hereinafter - '''“System”''') for vehicles with air suspension is designed to monitor the load of every axis of the vehicle’s chassis based on the measurement of the air pressure in the air suspension’s system.<br />
<br />
The '''eCargosens''' system consists of one eCargosens '''DS central unit''' (hereinafter - “'''central unit'''”) and several measurement units or '''eCargosens Air''' sensors (hereinafter - '''“Sensor”''' or '''“Sensors”'''). The number of Sensors installed on the vehicle depends on the '''number of axes''' the vehicle has<br />
<br />
The Sensors measure the air pressure and - subsequently - the weight (load). The '''central unit''' perfoms the function of receiving data from '''sensors''' via the '''BLE 5.0 LR''' channel (data transfer protocol - '''Escort BLE eCargosens''') and their further transmission to a tracker device (for example, a '''GPS/GLONASS''' navigation terminal) via '''RS-485''' interface (data transfer protocol - '''LLS''').<br />
<br />
More detailed technical specifications (central unit) are presented in [https://www.fmeter.ru/download/_ftp/eng/eCargosens-wireless-axle-load-monitoring-system/Datasheet%20Escort%20Central%20Unit%20eCargosens%20DS.pdf?v=050623133704 the device's data sheet.]<br />
<br />
More detailed technical specifications (sensor) are presented in [https://www.fmeter.ru/download/_ftp/eng/eCargosens-wireless-axle-load-monitoring-system/Datasheet%20Escort%20Axle%20Load%20Sensor%20eCargosens%20Air.pdf?v=050623133704 the device's data sheet.]<br />
<br />
= '''<big>Operating and data transmission principles</big>''' =<br />
The Sensors must be connected to the air suspension system of the vehicle. They measure the air pressure in the air suspension and calculate the weight that is distributed onto a particular axis based on a calibration table that must be created and saved in their memory.<br />
[[File:Imag1.png|center|frameless|754x754px]]<br />
<br />
The Sensor(s) transmit their parameters to the central unit via '''Bluetooth 5.0''' in accordance with the '''Escort BLE eCargosens''' data communication protocol.<br />
<br />
The Sensors transmit their data packages '''every 2 seconds'''.<br />
<br />
The air pressure is measured '''every 30 seconds''' but the measurement are filtered ('''median filtration''' 5) and then processed by a '''special algorithm'''.<br />
<br />
The central unit then retransmits the data received from the Sensor(s) to a GPS tracker/gateway via the '''RS-485''' interface in accordance with the '''LLS''' communication protocol.<br />
<br />
'''<big>The parameters transmitted by the Sensor(s):</big>'''<br />
<br />
- '''Weight''' or axle load in '''kg''' (provided that the '''calibration table''' is stored in a Sensor’s memory);<br />
<br />
- Air pressure in '''Pa''';<br />
<br />
- Battery charge in '''V''';<br />
<br />
'''<big>The parameters retransmitted by the central unit:</big>'''<br />
<br />
- '''Weight''' or axle load in '''kg''' (provided that the '''calibration table''' is stored in a Sensor’s memory); as received from the Sensor(s);<br />
<br />
- Air pressure in '''Pa'''; as received from the Sensor(s);<br />
<br />
- Battery charge in '''V'''; as received from the Sensor(s);<br />
<br />
- '''RSSI''' as calculated by the central unit for every Sensor in particular;<br />
<br />
==== '''<big>Note for developers</big>''' ====<br />
The central unit retransmits the parameters as per the LLS protocol in response to the request for level and temperature (because the LLS protocol was initially designed for the transmission of fuel level sensor) <br />
<br />
31$XX$06$CRC-8 Maxim (XX stands for the network address from 00 to FF in HEX (0…255 in DEC));<br />
<br />
The data output is transmitted as 3E$XX$06$TT$LVLV$CRC-8 Maxim, where<br />
<br />
XX -network address, <br />
<br />
TT - temperature parameter (1 byte, HEX value), <br />
<br />
LVLV - level value (2 bytes, little endian);<br />
<br />
Thus, one network address is used to transmit one pair of parameters sent by the Sensor(s) and retransmitted by the central unit.<br />
<br />
The Pressure readings is transmitted after it is divided by 100. F.e. the Pressure reading is 700345 Pa but the value transmitted via the RS-485 interface will be 7003.<br />

<br />
= '''<big>Installation and configuration</big>''' =<br />
'''<big>Before installing the sensor you need to:</big>'''<br />
<br />
- Inspect the air suspension system;<br />
<br />
- Measure the diameter of the tubes that connect the air springs of the air suspension and buy the fittings to be able to connect the Sensors’ tubes to the air suspension’s tubes;<br />
<br />
The standard diameter of the Sensor’s tubes is ⌀ '''10mm'''.<br />
<br />
The Sensor’s connecting to the air spring is shown on the figures below:<br />
[[File:123.png|center|frameless|631x631px]]<br />

[[File:Imagege.png|center|frameless|726x726px]]<br />
[[File:Imagedasd2.png|center|frameless|764x764px]]<br />
Before installing the sensor be sure to write down their serial numbers and MAC addresses and what axis every Sensors is to be installed at:<br />
[[File:Imagefdsfe.png|center|frameless|536x536px]]<br />
<br />
== '''<big>Pairing Sensors with central unit</big>''' ==<br />
Once the sensors are installed, you need to pair them with the '''central unit''' and configure them.<br />
<br />
To connect the central unit and configure it via the app, connect its '''red (PWR)''' and '''black (GND)''' wires to a power supply.<br />
<br />
Run the '''app''' (available in '''AppStore''' and '''Play Market'''), ensure that the '''geolocation''' service of your smartphone is On and the app has the '''permission to access''' it. Enable the '''Bluetooth'''.<br />
<br />

[[File:Imagevvfd.png|center|frameless|648x648px]]<br />
<br />
<br />
Then select the language should it be necessary and press Start. Then tap on the central unit you need.<br />
[[File:Imageczxc.png|center|frameless|659x659px]]<br />
<br />
<br />
Scroll down and tap '''Sensor settings'''. Enter the integrator’s password '''(666666 by default)'''<br />
[[File:Imagebdftr.png|center|frameless|641x641px]]<br />
<br />
<br />
Tap on the '''+''' button. Enter the user password '''(000000 by default)'''. Then enter the '''MAC''' of the sensor.<br />
[[File:Imagedasdc.png|center|frameless|630x630px]]<br />
<br />
<br />
Then enter the '''MAC''' of the sensor. You can add as many sensors as you need (up to '''10''' sensors to one central unit) .<br />
[[File:Image21папв.png|center|frameless|622x622px]]<br />
<br />
<br />
To disconnect the sensor, press and hold it until the '''Disconnect''' button appears then '''press it''' and delete the sensor.<br />
[[File:Imageпап3.png|center|frameless]]<br />
<br />
== '''<big>Sensor calibration</big>''' ==<br />
'''To calibrate''' the Sensor, you need '''to weigh the axis''' it is installed at when the vehicle’s semi trailer or trailer is '''empty''' and when it is '''loaded''' at around '''30-40%''' of '''max load'''. The load must be placed in a '''fashion''' that would ensure that the weight is distributed between the axes '''more or less equally'''.<br />
<br />
You will need '''vehicle scales'''. Put them on an '''even''' surface. Make sure that once the axis is placed on the scales it remains on the '''same level''' as the '''other axes'''.<br />
<br />
Then write down the Pressure value and the weight value. You need '''two pairs of Pressure''' - Weight values to '''save''' them in every Sensor’s memory.<br />
[[File:Imageваппк.png|center|frameless|647x647px]]<br />
<br />
<br />
After that, open the app, connect the central unit, open '''Sensor settings''' menu and select the sensor you need to calibrate. <br />
<br />
<br />
When you connect the Sensor for the '''1st time''', you will be required to '''set up a password'''. From there on every time you connect the sensor the app will require you to enter the previously set password.<br />
[[File:Image6535g.png|center|frameless|631x631px]]<br />
<br />
<br />
Once the sensor’s menu is open, you can see its current readings. Tap on the '''Calibrate''' button to open the '''calibration menu'''.<br />
[[File:Imagedsaf31.png|center|frameless|646x646px]]<br />
<br />
Next, press the '''+''' button. Then enter the Pressure reading (from the screen with the Sensor’s data) and Weight reading (from the scales) and tap '''Enter'''.<br />
<br />
To edit the table, '''press and hold''' one of its lines then either add one more line, change the selected one or delete it.<br />
<br />
After the table is finished tap on the '''Save button'''. Repeat the procedure of weighing and setting the table for every sensor. <br />
<br />
You can add more than '''2 lines''' should you have the possibility to weigh every axis while the load in the semi trailer is different but '''2 lines''' will do in most cases. The max number of lines - '''20'''.<br />
[[File:Imagegt42g.png|center|frameless|643x643px]]<br />
<br />
== '''<big>RS-485 settings</big>''' ==<br />
To enable the transmission of the data the central unit receives from the Sensors paired with it via Bluetooth to a GPS tracker/gateway by means of the '''RS-485''' interface, connect the central unit and open the '''RS-485''' settings menu. Select one of the paired Sensors there.<br />
[[File:Imagevzxccw.png|center|frameless|648x648px]]<br />
<br />
<br />
Then select the pair of parameters you need transmitted and enable it. After that select the network address that will be used for the transmission of that pair from the central unit to the GPS tracker/gateway.<br />
[[File:Imagegvdfg43.png|center|frameless|633x633px]]<br />
<br />
<br />
'''<big>ATTENTION! Ensure that every pair of parameters in every Sensor’s menu is assigned a unique network address. If you have several other wired sensors connected to the same GPS tracker/gateway via the RS-485 interface, remember that they also already occupy one or several network addresses so you need to avoid assigning the central unit any of those network address.</big>'''<br />
<br />
<br />
For example, if there’s a wired FLS that had been assigned the network '''address 1''', the address 1 '''cannot be''' assigned to the '''central unit'''. <br />
<br />
Note that the app could be reading “'''All network addresses are free'''” but the app cannot check if there any other wired sensors connected to your tracker/gateway. It only checks what network addresses had been assigned to every paired Sensor in the central unit’s configuration.<br />
<br />
== '''<big>Data view</big>''' ==<br />
You, your customer or the truck’s driver can access the '''current readings''' transmitted by the Sensors '''via the app'''.<br />
<br />
Connect the '''central unit'''.<br />
[[File:Imagegrgt4353.png|center|frameless|656x656px]]<br />
<br />
<br />
Then tap '''View data'''. On the next screen the app will show the readings of all Sensors paired with the central unit.<br />
[[File:Imagevver5.png|center|frameless|659x659px]]<br />
<br />
<br />
'''ATTENTION! When selecting the spot at which to install the central unit, be sure to check if the average RSSI of every sensor as measured within 2-3 minutes is within the -35 dBm to -100 dBm range. If it is not, try moving the central unit closer to the sensors to minimize the risks of connection losses in future!'''<br />

== '''<big>How many sensors are required?</big>''' ==<br />
The general recommendation is to install '''as many as sensors as many axes the vehicle has'''. In other words: '''1 axis = 1 sensor'''.<br />
<br />
It is possible that in some cases, '''one sensor''' could be used to monitor the load on several axes provided that the air springs that support those axes are united into '''one suspension circuit'''.<br />
<br />
'''<big>The following are a few examples of possible installation of several sensors:</big>'''<br />
[[File:Imagedsd13.png|center|frameless|594x594px]]<br />
A and B are possible slots where the '''2 sensors''' would have to be installed to monitor the load of '''every axis'''.<br />
<br />
[[File:Imageg546345.png|center|frameless|640x640px]]<br />
In this case it is possible that '''only one sensor''' could be installed either at point '''A or B'''.<br />
<br />
However, you would need to be collecting the pressure readings of the sensor and have '''2 virtual sensors''' on your '''monitoring platform''' (the '''calibration tables''' would have to be saved and applied in those virtual sensors).<br />
<br />

<br />
However, you would need to be collecting the pressure readings of the sensor and have '''2 virtual sensors''' on your '''monitoring platform''' (the '''calibration tables''' would have to be saved and applied in those virtual sensors).<br />
<br />
[[File:Image1241а13.png|center|frameless|669x669px]]<br />
In this case either '''6 or 3 sensors''' could be installed ('''1''' or '''2''' per axis) to monitor the axle load.<br />
<br />
It is still possible that the load distributed between the two out of three axes could be '''more or less equal''' and therefore '''1 or 2 sensors''' could be enough.<br />
<br />
However, if '''one of the axes is a liftable one''', installing one sensor on it is '''obligatory'''.<br />
<br />
== '''<big>Configuration of virtual sensor for steering (spring) axle</big>''' ==<br />
To calculate a '''total weight of a semi-trailer truck''' it’s necessary to weigh both the '''steering and the rear axis of a truck''' ('''dump truck''') without a '''semi-trailer''' (if '''dump truck''', without a '''cargo'''). If there are several front and\or rear axles, it’s necessary to '''weigh each'''.<br />
<br />
Next, in the Sensor configuration menu, press '''+''' the button and select the '''Add the head axle''' option.<br />
[[File:Imagewewqe21.png|center|frameless|612x612px]]<br />
<br />
<br />
After that a virtual sensor for a steering axle will be created and it will have a '''MAC FF:FF:FF:FF:FF:F1'''<br />
[[File:Image42341.png|center|frameless|530x530px]]<br />
In the settings fill the '''Number of rear axle №1''' with a sensor’s number, that is installed on a '''rear axle'''. A sensor’s number is determined by its position from '''1st to 10th''' in the list.<br />
<br />
'''Enter''' the weight of a '''rear axle''' without a semi-trailer in '''Load of rear axle №'''<br />
<br />
<br />
In case there are '''several rear axles''', '''add another one''' by pressing the button then enter the number of a sensor installed on it and also its weight '''without a semi-trailer'''. To delete an accidentally created rear axle, press the '''+ button'''.<br />
[[File:Image231d1.png|center|frameless|632x632px]]<br />
<br />
<br />
Then enter the following aspects:<br />
<br />
1) a '''weight of a truck''' (calculated by adding up the weight of all its axles without a semi-trailer) or the weight of a dump truck<br />
<br />
<br />
2) a '''distance''' between the front axle center and the rear axle center<br />
<br />
<br />
3) a '''distance''' between the front axle center and a trailing arm (or a gravity center of a dumper). The value '''should not be more''' than a distance between the front axle center and the rear axle center or totally equal to it.<br />
<br />
<br />
4) a '''distance''' between the front steering axles (in case they are two); if there is only one steering axle, enter the '''minimum value of 51 cm'''.<br />
<br />
<br />
5) select the '''2 rear axles mode''', if there are '''two steering axles'''<br />
<br />
<br />
6) press the '''Save''' button<br />
[[File:Imageв12в121.png|center|frameless]]<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
'''WARNING! The central unit computes a weight of a steering axle and a total weight of a semi-trailer truck, only if the calibration tables are saved in the sensors’ memory!!!'''<br />
<br />
'''ATTENTION! To successfully use the "2 rear axles" mode, a second virtual steering axle with the same settings as the first must be added to the central unit. Both virtual sensors must have the "two rear axles" mode selected.'''<br />
<br />
== '''<big>Configuring the virtual steering (spring) axle sensor when there are two sensors on the rear axle</big>''' ==<br />
In addition, one of the latest firmware versions (1.1.6) introduced a feature for calculating the steering axis when more than one sensor is installed on the drive axles (to calculate the average reading from two sensors per axle).<br />
<br />
'''<u>Below are screenshots of the settings</u>''':<br />
<br />
After adding a virtual steering axis sensor with '''MAC address FF:FF:FF:FF:FF:F1''', you need to access its settings by clicking on it.<br />
[[File:ECargosens Air sensors page 1.jpg|center|frameless]]<br />
<br />
<br />
1) In the settings, in the '''"Rear Sensor No. 1.1"''' field, enter the serial number of '''<u>one of the sensors installed on the truck's rear axle</u>''' (semi-trailer axles are not required).<br />
<br />
'''<u>The sensor's serial number is determined by its position in the list, numbered from 1 to 10 from top to bottom.</u>'''<br />
<br />
1.2) In the settings, in the '''"Rear Sensor No. 1.2"''' field, specify the serial number of '''<u>the second sensor installed on the same rear axle of the truck</u>''' (semi-trailer axles are not required). '''(Add by clicking the "+" button.)'''<br />
<br />
'''<u>The sensor's serial number is determined by its position in the list, numbered from 1 to 10 from top to bottom.</u>'''<br />
<br />
2) Enter '''the rear axle weight''' (without the semi-trailer) in the '''"Rear Axle Load No."''' field.<br />
<br />
<u>If the truck has '''multiple rear axles''' and each is equipped with '''two sensors''', you must add '''another rear axle.'''</u><br />
<br />
<br />
Use the '''"+" (plus)''' button to specify the serial number of the sensor installed on it and its weight without the semi-trailer. To delete an accidentally created rear axle, click the '''(Trash Can)''' button.<br />
[[File:Steering axle settings 1.jpg|left|frameless]]<br />
[[File:Steering axle settings 2.jpg|frameless]]<br />
<br />
<br />
Next, you must specify:<br />
<br />
1) '''the weight of the truck''' unit (the sum of the weights of all its axles, excluding the semi-trailer) or the weight of the dump truck<br />
<br />
2) '''the distance''' from the center of the front axle to the center of the rear axles<br />
<br />
3) '''the distance''' from the center of the front axle to the coupling device (the center of gravity of the dump body). This value '''cannot be greater''' than or equal to the distance from the center of the front axle to the center of the rear<br />
<br />
4) '''The distance between''' the front steering axles (if there are two); if there is only one steering axle, enter '''the minimum value of 51 cm'''<br />
<br />
5) Select the '''"two-axle truck"''' operating mode if there '''are two''' steering axles<br />
<br />
6) Click '''"Save"'''<br />
[[File:Steering axle settings 3.jpg|center|frameless]]<br />
<br />
<br />
'''<big>ATTENTION! The cab unit will calculate the weight of the steering axle and the total weight of the truck-trailer combination only if the calibration tables are stored in the sensors' memory!!!</big>'''<br />
<br />
'''<big>ATTENTION! To successfully use the "two-axle tractor" mode, you must add a second virtual steering axle to the cab unit with the same settings as the first one. The "two-axle" mode must be selected for both virtual sensors.</big>'''<br />
<br />
.<br />
<br />
To '''delete''' a virtual sensor of a steering axle, hold its button until the '''Disconnect''' option appears.<br />
[[File:Image45м45.png|center|frameless]]<br />
<br />
<br />
To view the '''steering axle readings''' from a peripheral device (e.g a GPS tracker) via the '''RS-485 interface''', go to the '''RS-485 configuration''' section to select a '''virtual sensor of a steering axle'''. Enable the '''Weight, RSSI''' parameter and set a certain network address for it.<br />
[[File:Image21312с1.png|center|frameless|615x615px]]<br />
<br />
<br />
To '''connect''' a central unit to an '''I5 indicator''' in order to view the sum of all the sensors, including the virtual sensor of a steering axle, '''configure''' the i5 so it’s able to '''read or request''' the network addresses that are set for the certain sensors in the central unit. In the I5’s '''Display settings''' select the '''TD total level''' option.<br />
<br />
= '''Connecting the cabin unit to the I-5 digital display''' =<br />
The eCargosens cabin unit is connected to the '''digital "I-5 Display"''' for data output to the screen in accordance with our general pinout shown below ('''"Connection to the GPS Terminal"'''). Simply connect lines A and B of the display to the cabin unit, and connect the display to the power source in the same way as the cabin unit.<br />
<br />
'''NOTE: If the pressure value is displayed on the indicator, due to technical limitations, only the first 5 digits of the pressure value will be shown in the window.'''<br />
<br />
'''You can also display the total data from all sensors and the average data for each axis, but only one of the two at a time.'''<br />
<br />
== <big>'''Connecting the cabin unit'''</big> ==<br />
If you need to connect the '''cabin unit''' only to the '''I-5'''—that is, if there will be no GPS tracker or other device to which the eCargosens system will be connected—you must connect the in-cab unit to the I-5, then select '''"Active Mode"''' in the mode settings and configure the polling interval (the I-5 will send requests).<br />
<br />
If, however, the cabin unit will be used in conjunction with the I-5 indicator and a GPS tracker/terminal, you should select '''Passive Mode.'''<br />
<br />
To pair the cabin unit and the sensors, tap '''"Connect Sensors"''' (Fig. 13, 2). Then tap the '''"+"''' button (Fig. 14).<br />
