Siting the Gateway
• The Gateway should be installed where it has the strongest cellular connection 
and a clear, open “view” of the sky with good sunlight for the solar panel..
Siting the Nodes
• Make sure each Node is sited so that it has at least two ways to reach the 
Gateway. It should be within transmission distance (up to 2,000 feet/600 
meters) of either two other Nodes, or the Gateway and another Node. This 
allows the mesh to “heal” any temporarily impaired transmission paths and will 
ensure data reaches the Gateway. You can have any number of hops from Node 
to Node. A Node can even be installed simply to transmit data from more 
distance Nodes to the Gateway, without any sensors installed in it. By planning 
the system’s “transmission mesh,” data can be relayed in from the most remote 
corner of your installation.
