Setting the Loratech S0 Pulse Transmitter S0 Node
The Loratech S0 Node is used to read meter pulses and send the recorded data over the LoRaWAN wireless network. Connection INx pulse inputs The pulse outputs of the meter are connected to the INx terminals. They are occupied from IN0 to IN3. It is always important to observe polarity, i.e. connect the + of the counter to the + of the meter. IN0 (P1) - counter 0 IN1 (P2) - counter 1 IN2 (P3) - counter 2 IN3 (P4) - counter 3 Configuration interface Switch the USB- UART converter to 3.

Setting the passive splitter PR-1
You will use a passive splitter if you want to divide one input pulse signal into two identical ones. We use it mostly in case we need to share the meter data with a third party. Typically, these are gas and waterworks, where one distributor from the hub will be used by the distributor and the other by us in Enectiva. The converter can then be connected to an M-Bus converter (eg Pad Pulse) or converted to wireless eg via WMBUS 169, Wmbus 868 etc.
