LPMS-IG1W Manual

Version:1.0

1. Overview

The LPMS-IG1W, a 9-axis IMU sensor, detects orientation and acceleration with high precision. This device communicates with host systems such as PCs and smartphones via Wi-Fi connection. Despite its compact size, it offers high accuracy, IP67 waterproof protection, and is equipped with a powerful onboard CPU that processes gyro, accelerometer, and magnetometer data, providing low-drift and high-precision results in real-time. It is well-suited for industrial environments where high accuracy and low latency measurements are required.

Features

  • MEMS-based 9-axis IMU with sensor fusion technology

  • Low-noise, low-drift accelerometer (4°/1h)

  • Dual gyroscopes enabling a wide measurement range (400–2000°/s)

  • Real-time computation of orientation and linear acceleration within the sensor

  • Wi-Fi connectivity

  • Waterproof design (IP67) with impact resistance up to 10,000G

2. Quick Start Guide

2.1 Network Connection Setup

To connect this device to Wi-Fi, you first need to set up the network connection. To do this, access the device from a Wi-Fi-enabled smartphone or PC. Below is an example of the setup process using an iPhone.

For iPhone Users

Please follow the steps below to set up the network connection:

  • Connect the LPMS-IG1W to a power source using the included USB cable (the sensor will power on automatically).

  • On your iPhone, go to the list of available Wi-Fi networks and select the Wi-Fi SSID printed on the sensor.

  • Enter the default password "12345678" and connect.

  • You will be automatically redirected to the Wi-Fi portal page.

Wi-Fi connection list

The sensor can be directly connected to the host device, allowing you to acquire sensor data in this state.

  • On the Wi-Fi portal page, tap the menu button in the top left corner and select Wi-Fi Manager.

  • Tap the Scan button to search for available Wi-Fi networks. A list of nearby Wi-Fi networks will be displayed. Select the desired Wi-Fi network and tap Join to connect.

  • Once the connection is complete, the IP address will be displayed at the top of the Wi-Fi list. Make sure to note it down.

  • From another device on the same network, open a web browser and enter the previously displayed IP address.

  • Confirm that you can access the same Wi-Fi portal page as before.

 

2.2 Data Acquisition

2.2.1 LpmsControl

You can check the data from LPMS-IG1W using the LpmsControl software.

  • On a device connected to the same network as the LPMS-IG1W, launch LpmsControl (version 2.1.5 or later).

  • Enter the IP address and port number of LPMS-IG1W (these can be found on the Wi-Fi portal page > Wi-Fi Status screen).

  • Click the Connect button to establish a connection with the sensor.

With LpmsControl, you can utilize various features such as real-time graph display and CSV export.

2.2.2 Socket Communication and MQTT Communication

The LPMS-IG1W can transmit data over Wi-Fi using two different methods: Socket Communication Mode and MQTT Communication Mode.

Socket Communication Mode

In Socket Communication Mode, the LPMS-IG1W operates as a socket server for communication.

  • Access the settings page by navigating to Wi-Fi Portal Page > Menu (top left) > Settings.

  • Ensure that the Mode is set to Socket Server and specify the server port for connection.

  • Sensor data will be transmitted to the specified server.

Although Socket Client Mode is selectable, it has not yet been implemented as of January 14, 2025.
If needed, we can develop this feature upon request.

 

MQTT Communication Mode

In MQTT Communication Mode, the LPMS-IG1W operates as an MQTT client for communication.

  • Access the settings page by navigating to Wi-Fi Portal Page > Menu (top left) > Settings.

  • Change the Mode to MQTT Client and specify the target MQTT server.

  • Sensor data will be transmitted to the specified MQTT server.
