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.
