nMETOS, LoRAIN, LoRATH
a. Multimeter:
b. Menu of the device:
To know how to connect to the station using a USB cable, please, refer to: Create Log file with PI Service Terminal NB-IoT Stations
On the main menu, select (5) SENSOR TESTING:
NOTE: Ensure the battery has 3.5 or 3.6V and the supercapacitor 2.5V or more. If the battery or the supercapacitor are below the threshold, it is not recommended to use them.
