Output

Power from internal batteries can simulate any voltage between 5V to 24V.
Power from the DC Port is directly passed through.
Power output is limited to 2A at any voltage, max 48W

Input

Charging is possible from an ethernet port with passive POE
Standard charging parameters apply, with Over Voltage Protection

Clock

Long term stability

GNSS / GPS

Atomic clocks aboard satellites
Requires GNSS lock

Cellular Time Servers

Relatively local, close to device
Rough accuracy (± 250ms)

NTP Servers

General internet time servers
Rough accuracy (± 1s or more)

LoRa arbitration7

RTC Performance

'External' RTC

Drift: ±1ppm

Accuracy: 31.54 seconds per year,86.4 milliseconds per day

Strategy: Resynced start and during each GNSS lock / cellular connection

'Internal' RTC

Drift: ±10ppm

Accuracy: 315.36 seconds per year, 864.0 milliseconds per day

Strategy: Resynced frequently with external RTC

Persistent memory

Persistent memory is retained after unit powers off, is never lost, and will be sent to the cloud at the next available opportunity.

Memory recycling

The memory will be recycled over time if there is no user interaction. In most use cases this is fine, as data will have been transferred over cellular automatically well before hand.
