Models
There are some defined configurations of Waspmote Plug & Sense! depending on which sensors are going to be used. Waspmote Plug & Sense! configurations allow to connect up to six sensor probes at the same time.
Each model takes a different conditioning circuit to enable the sensor integration. For this reason, each model allows connecting just its specific sensors.
This section describes each model configuration in detail, showing the sensors which can be used in each case and how to connect them to Waspmote. In many cases, the sensor sockets accept the connection of more than one sensor probe. See the compatibility table for each model configuration to choose the best probe combination for the application.
It is very important to remark that each socket is designed only for one specific sensor, so they are not interchangeable. Always be sure you have connected the probes in the right socket. Otherwise, they can be damaged.
In the next table we show the sensor board which corresponds to each Plug & Sense! model:
Smart Environment PRO
The Smart Environment PRO model has been created as an evolution of Smart Environment. It enables the user to implement pollution, air quality, industrial, environmental or farming projects with high requirements in terms of high accuracy, reliability and measurement range as the sensors come calibrated from factory.
Sensor sockets are configured as shown in the table below:
For more technical information about each sensor probe, go to the Gases PRO Sensor Guide: https://development.libelium.com/gases_pro_sensor_guide/
Calibrated gas sensors are manufactured once the order has been placed to ensure maximum durability of the calibration feature. The manufacturing process and delivery may take from 4 to 6 weeks. The lifetime of calibrated gas sensors is 6 months working at maximum accuracy. We strongly encourage our customers to buy extra gas sensors to replace the original ones after that time to ensure maximum accuracy and performance.
Smart Security
The main applications for this Waspmote Plug & Sense! configuration are perimeter access control, liquid presence detection and doors and windows openings. Besides, a relay system allows this model to interact with external electrical machines.
The probes attached in this photo could not match the final location. See next table for the correct configuration.
As we see in the figure below, thanks to the directional probe, the presence sensor probe (PIR) may be placed in different positions. The sensor can be focused directly to the point we want.

Smart Water
The Smart Water model has been conceived to facilitate the remote monitoring of the most relevant parameters related to water quality. With this platform you can measure more than 5 parameters, including the most relevant for water control such as dissolved oxygen, oxidation-reduction potential, pH, conductivity and temperature.
The Smart Water Ions line is complementary for these kinds of projects, enabling the control of concentration of ions like Ammonium (NH 4+ ), Bromide (Br - ), Calcium (Ca 2+ ), Chloride (Cl - ), Cupric (Cu 2+ ), Fluoride (F - ), Iodide (I - ), Lithium (Li + ), Magnesium (Mg 2+ ), Nitrate (NO 3- ), Nitrite (NO 2- ), Perchlorate (ClO 4- ), Potassium (K + ), Silver (Ag + ), Sodium (Na + ) and pH. Take a look to the Smart Water Ions line in the next section.
Sensor sockets are configured as shown in the table below:

Smart Water Xtreme
Smart Water Xtreme was created as an evolution of Smart Water. This model integrates high-end sensors, calibrated in factory, with enhanced accuracy and performance. Their reduced recalibration requirements and robust design enlarge maintenance periods, making it more affordable to deploy remote Smart Water applications. This line includes a great combination of the most significant water parameters like dissolved oxygen, pH, oxidation-reduction potential, conductivity, salinity, turbidity, suspended solids, sludge blanket and temperature.
Sensor sockets are configured as shown in the table below:

Smart Water Ions
The Smart Water Ions model specializes in the measurement of ions concentration for drinking water quality control, agriculture water monitoring, swimming pools or waste water treatment. The PRO sensors have higher performance than the former Single and Double sensors.
The Smart Water line is complementary for these kinds of projects, enabling the control of parameters like conductivity, oxidation-reduction potential and dissolved oxygen. Take a look to the Smart Water line in the previous section.
PRO
This special variant integrates extreme quality sensors, with better performance than the Single or Double lines. In this case, there is only one type of reference probe and up to 16 different ion parameters can be analyzed in 4 sockets. Sensor sockets are configured as shown in the table below:
