STAGEMINIMUM VOLTAGESENSOR MEASUREMENTSDATA TRANSMISSIONNOTE
1. normal mode> 6 Vdefault (normal) operating mode
where the device measures and logs
sensors data and transmits the logs
to the FieldClimate cloud
2. gathering mode5.8 V – 6 Vdevice is only measuring and logging
sensors data, it does not have
enough power to execute
transmission
3. Sleeping mode< 5.8 Vdevice does not have enough power
to measure the sensors or to do the
data transmissions


How to measure the battery level


a. Using a multi tester:


b. by accessing the menu:
