Applications

Remote Monitoring

Control equipment in remote locations without cellular or Wi-Fi coverage. Perfect for agricultural, environmental, and infrastructure monitoring.

Utility Infrastructure

Valve control, pump management, and remote switching for water, gas, and electrical utilities. Reliable operation over long distances.

Smart Agriculture

Irrigation control, gate automation, and environmental monitoring across large farms and ranches. Battery-powered for areas without mains power.

Industrial Automation

Equipment control in large facilities, warehouses, and campuses. Low infrastructure requirements with LoRa gateway.

Getting Started

The WiEPOut LoRa requires a LoRa gateway for network connectivity:

1. Set up LoRa gateway (The Things Network, ChirpStack, etc.)
2. Connect WiEPOut LoRa to power (3.3-5V DC or battery)
3. Provision device to LoRa network
4. Control via gateway API or MQTT integration

Network Integration

The Things Network (TTN)

Compatible with The Things Network for easy cloud integration and worldwide coverage.

ChirpStack

Full support for ChirpStack LoRaWAN Network Server for private network deployments.

LoRaWAN

Standard LoRaWAN 1.0.3 protocol support for maximum compatibility.

Power Options
