TABLE 3: DUTY CYCLES AND MAXIMUM EIRP VERSION 868MHZ FOR EUROPE

If the antenna is changed, the output power must be adjusted to take into account the antenna gain to avoid

exceeding the values defined by the ERC 70-3 regulation.

Warning: some countries in Europe may have a specific frequency range, a maximum EIRP and duty cycle regulation.

Please check the local regulations before installing and using the LORIX One 868MHz version.

For countries outside Europe, please check that the frequency range, the maximum allowed EIRP and duty cycle are

authorized.

LORIX One User manual revision 1.4

3.2 VERSION 915MHZ BAND

The LORIX One (IP43 & IP65) 915MHz version complies with both FCC and IC regulation:

TABLE 4: CERTIFICATION COMPLIANCE VERSION 915MHZ FOR US/CANADA

The associated FCC and IC identifiers of the LORIX One 915MHz version are:

FCC ID : 2APAZ-LORIXONE

IC : 23715-LORIXONE

Model : LORIX One

Some conditions must be met to maintain the FCC and IC compliance of the devices in the USA and Canada. These

conditions are detailed in the following paragraphs. For other countries, please check the specific regulations

regarding maximum allowed EIRP and duty cycle.

3.2.1 USA /FCC

This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this

device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including

interference that may cause undesired operation.

Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user's

authority to operate the equipment.

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital device, pursuant to part 15

of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference when the

equipment is operated in a commercial environment. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio

frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause harmful

interference to radio communications. Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause harmful

interference in which case the user will be required to correct the interference at personal expense.

This device must be professionally installed.

Also, some specific recommendations for exposure to magnetic fields must be followed: This equipment complies

with FCC’s radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment under the following conditions:

1. This equipment should be installed and operated such that a minimum separation distance of 20 cm is

maintained between the radiator (antenna) and user’s/nearby person’s body at all times.

2. This transmitter must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.

3.2.2 CANADA /IC

This device complies with Industry Canada’s license-exempt RSS standards. Operation is subject to the following two

conditions:

1. This device may not cause harmful interference, and

2. This device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired

operation of the device.

Le présent appareil est conforme aux CNR d'Industrie Canada applicables aux appareils radio exempts de licence.

L'exploitation est autorisée aux deux conditions suivantes :

LORIX One User manual revision 1.4

1. L’appareil ne doit pas produire de brouillage;

2. l'utilisateur de l'appareil doit accepter tout brouillage radioélectrique subi, même si le brouillage est

susceptible d'en compromettre le fonctionnement.

Under Industry Canada regulations, this radio transmitter may only operate using an antenna of a type and maximum

(or lesser) gain approved for the transmitter by Industry Canada. To reduce potential radio interference to other

users, that antenna type and its gain should be so chosen that the equivalent isotropically radiated power (EIRP) is

not more than that necessary for successful communication.

This radio transmitter has been approved by Industry Canada to operate with the antenna types listed as accessories

with the maximum permissible gain and required antenna impedance for each antenna type indicated. Antenna

types not included in this list, having a gain greater than the maximum gain indicated for that type, are strictly

prohibited for use with the device.

This equipment should be installed and operated such that a minimum separation distance of 20 cm is maintained

between the radiator (antenna) and user’s/nearby person’s body at all times.

4GENERAL INFORMATION

4.1 WIKI

The LORIX One wiki is accessible at www.lorixone.io/wiki and contains information about technical use of the

product. It contains information such as explanations on how to use the toolchain to create custom binaries or to

flash the internal NAND memory.

4.1.1 UPDATE INFORMATION

The modifications made between each new release of the Yocto Linux are described under the Wiki changelog page

http://lorixone.io/wiki/Changelog

4.1.2 TROUBLESHOOTING

Frequent encountered problems are summarized under the Wiki troubleshooting page, with suggested solutions:

http://lorixone.io/wiki/Troubleshooting

4.1.3 OPEN SOURCE LICENSES

All the licenses of the open source software used or available in the packages repository of the LORIX One are

available at the following address: https://lorixone.io/yocto/licenses/2.1.2

4.2 CONNECTIVITY/INTERFACE

connector

4.3 START/RESET

The gateway automatically boots when connected to a power supply through passive PoE on the Ethernet cable.

After start-up, the status LED should blink briefly and turn off. Once the Linux OS starts, the status LED will start

blinking in “heartbeat” mode.

The reset button can be used to reset the gateway, to reset it close to its original factory settings, or to enter in

programming mode. For a simple reset, shortly press the reset button with a thin tool such as a paper clip. Upon

release, the status LED will briefly flash and then stop to signal the reset action.

LORIX One User manual revision 1.4

4.3.1 PROCEDURES

Short-press

Press briefly, for less than 1 second. The blue LED will briefly blink upon release

Long-press

Press and hold for several seconds. The blue LED will briefly blink after the delay specified below

Status LED

A short flash of the blue LED

Normal reset procedure

1. Short-press

2. The status LED will flash upon

release and the gateway will

reboot

Factory reset procedure

The factory reset procedure can be used to reset the initial default configuration and thus restore the device to

its original settings. This procedure is useful to solve a network misconfiguration or to recover a forgotten

password.

Scope of the factory reset

The factory reset does not reset the device to its original factory settings. It does not perform a complete

restoration and some issues cannot be solved. A complete factory reset can be done following the procedure

described on the NAND Programming page of the wiki.

1. Wait at least 1 second after

another reset pressure

2. Long-press for at least 10 seconds

3. After the LED starts blinking,

release the reset button

4. The gateway will boot in factory

reset mode. When Linux has

started, a script will copy the

default files

> 10sec

Programming mode procedure

This procedure is used to enter in programming mode. It enables the possibility to reprogram the gateway using

the Atmel SAM-BA programming tool through the USB port as summarized on the NAND Programming page of

the wiki.

LORIX One User manual revision 1.4

1. Remove the microSD card from

the device

2. Wait at least 1 second for

another reset pressure

3. Perform 2 short presses with less

than 1 second between each

press

4. Perform a third long press for

more than 3 seconds (but less

than 5 seconds)

< 1sec < 1sec

> 3sec
