OverviewThe WS203 is a LoRaWAN® PIR motion sensor with integrated temperature and humidity measurement for indoor environmental and occupancy monitoring. It detects human or animal movement and provides high-precision temperature and humidity readings, with local data storage and retransmission to ensure data integrity during connectivity interruptions.
Key Features- PIR motion detection with adjustable covers: up to 120° horizontal × 100° vertical, max 6 m range
- High-precision temperature and humidity sensing for reliable environment monitoring
- Local data storage (up to 1,000 records) and automatic retransmission after reconnection
- Milesight D2D (Device-to-Device) support for direct node communication
- Ultra-low power design with internal 4000 mAh ER18505 Li-SOCl2 battery for multi-year operation in typical reporting scenarios
- NFC-based configuration via mobile app and simple mounting options for quick deployment
Milesight D2D Communication- Enables direct communication among Milesight LoRa node devices without a LoRaWAN® gateway
- Lower latency and sub-second response in typical scenarios
- Secure local transmission and reduced infrastructure cost for specific automation use cases
