Understanding the Power Budget of Battery-Powered VoBos 

Best Practices, VoBo Devices & Features / By

The power budget is one of the most critical steps when designing a battery-powered VoBo monitoring system. Every sensor and connection draws energy from a limited source. Exceeding that power budget can cause unreliable operation and shorten the battery life. This guide explains how to calculate power requirements, estimate battery life, and plan your setup accordingly. The current battery-powered products are the VoBo GP-1/ HL-1 and Vobo TC.  1. Power Consumption Factors for a VoBo   VoBos are industrial, …

VoBo and LoRaWAN® Security: Built-In Protection for Industrial IoT 

Best Practices / By

Data security is a top priority when deploying Industrial IoT (IIoT) devices in the field. While some systems rely on layered, bolt-on security protection, VoBo keeps it simple and robust by leveraging the security model built directly into the LoRaWAN® protocol.  The VoBo is a LoRaWAN® endpoint bridge that collects analog, digital, or serial sensor …

Best Practices for Deploying the VoBo HL-1/GP-1 at Scale

Best Practices / By

The VoBo is a LoRaWAN endpoint that bridges wired transmitters to a LoRaWAN network. The VoBo is sensor agnostic, able to read multiple input communication protocols, and therefore must be configured for the transmitter(s) it is reading. Because of the wide range of transmitters and their applications, we offer the following guide to the best …
