How Gateway can continue working without mains power

Gateway has a rechargeable internal battery that is used for backup when external power (i.e. Mains power) is removed.

  • If fully charged the backup battery will continue to enable cooler location updates for up to 1 month.
  • When operating from the backup battery the Gateway will continue to acquire data from IoT devices and send data to the AoFrio iQ Cloud until the battery is depleted.
  • Once the battery is depleted the Gateway will turn off.
  • Gateway will reactivate once reconnected to external power and then acquire and upload data from the paired IoT device as normal.
  • The backup battery will take 5-6 hours to fully charge.
