LoRaWAN range
LoRaWAN Converters & Controllers
Connect existing meters, PLCs and sensors to LoRaWAN, and switch pumps and valves remotely
Most plants already have the instruments: energy meters and flow meters with RS485 Modbus ports, pressure and level transmitters with 4–20 mA outputs, pumps and valves wired to a panel. A LoRaWAN converter reads those signals and sends them kilometres to a gateway, and a LoRaWAN controller carries switching commands the other way, so existing equipment joins a wireless network without a new PLC or a trench for cable.
The MacSync LX1 handles the inputs — Modbus RTU, 4–20 mA, 0–10 V and digital — on a 19 Ah battery or 9–36 V DC, and the MacSet LX1 adds relay outputs for remote control. Both are designed and manufactured in Pune and configured from the Maya app.

Choosing a device
Which Device for Which Signal?
Start from the signal the equipment already gives you.
| Your signal | Device | Typical equipment |
|---|---|---|
| RS485 Modbus RTU | MacSync LX1 (RS485) | Energy meters, flow meters, PLCs, drives |
| 4–20 mA or 0–10 V | MacSync LX1 (analog) | Pressure, level and flow transmitters |
| Pulse or dry-contact digital | MacSync LX1 (analog) | Pulse meters, float and door switches |
| A load to switch on and off | MacSet LX1 | Pumps, valves, motors, lights |
| RS232 serial | MacConnect LX2 (datasheet) | Legacy instruments and controllers |
Within Wi-Fi coverage the same inputs are available on the MacSync WX1, which publishes straight to an MQTT broker with no gateway.
FAQ
Frequently asked questions
A device that polls Modbus RTU registers from a meter, PLC or drive over its RS485 port and transmits the values over LoRaWAN to a gateway, so the equipment reports to a central platform without a data cable. The MacSync LX1 does this on a battery or a DC supply and stores readings on the device as well.
Yes. The MacSync LX1 in analog mode reads 4–20 mA, 0–10 V and digital inputs at 12-bit resolution, can power the transmitter from its own output during each reading, and sends the values over LoRaWAN. It delivers data to your platform; it does not regenerate a 4–20 mA signal at the far end.
Yes. The MacSet LX1 receives switching commands over LoRaWAN downlinks and drives relay outputs, with RS485, analog and digital inputs for feedback. It runs from 12–24 V DC or 230 V AC.
Between 51 and 222 bytes per uplink depending on the spreading factor, so a converter is configured to read the registers that matter and send them at a sensible interval. For rich or frequent data inside Wi-Fi coverage, the MacSync WX1 sends full messages over Wi-Fi.
The MacSync LX1 runs on an internal 19 Ah battery for sites with no supply at the meter, or on 9–36 V DC where power exists. The MacSet LX1 controller is powered, from 12–24 V DC or 230 V AC, because it drives loads.
