Install LoRaWAN sensors with confidence.

Loptimizer helps field teams choose better sensor locations, avoid weak radio links, and reduce battery-draining installations before the truck leaves the site.

  • Make installation decisions from measured field data, not coverage guesses
  • Spot weak locations before they become support tickets
  • Show customers a clear test result at the installation point
  • Reduce battery risk before the sensor goes into production
Field test

Prove every location before install

Run real LoRaWAN checks in the field, score the signal on site, and choose the sensor position with confidence before the truck leaves.

Battery

Optimize battery life before deployment

Compare radio settings and locations instantly to expose battery-draining choices before they become expensive maintenance visits.

Easy

Built for fast mobile decisions

Use a phone or large tablet screen, clear test scoring, and guided results so every installer can make the right call without expert guesswork.

A new way to field test LoRaWAN with a full mobile screen

Loptimizer moves field testing out of tiny device menus and onto a phone or tablet screen. The mobile app gives installers a clear workspace for setup, results, photos, and decisions, while the Pocket Tester hardware performs the LoRaWAN measurements at the installation point.

Loptimizer mobile app

Connects over Bluetooth to configure the tester, start LinkCheck and optimization campaigns, compare results, and document the best settings.

Pocket Tester LoRaWAN hardware with built-in screen

Pocket Tester hardware

Carries the LoRaWAN radio, built-in status screen, field test controls, and installation-ready signal checks. It measures the LoRaWAN field link while Bluetooth keeps the mobile workflow fast and local.

Receives the Pocket Tester LoRaWAN signal so installers can validate gateway reach, reception quality, redundancy, and reliability at the sensor location.

Customer feedback

Trusted by teams that need proof before every LoRaWAN install

“Before Loptimizer, installers waited for backend checks. Now they can prove link quality at the sensor point and leave with results the customer understands.”

Scored LoRaWAN field testing

The LinkCheck workflow turns field signal measurements into simple scores so installers can understand results quickly at the exact sensor location.

  • Run single tests or real-time campaigns
  • Measure RSSI, SNR, gateway reception, redundancy, and reliability
  • Review global and link scores that summarize reception, SNR, redundancy, and reliability
  • Save and share scored test results with installation photos

Battery optimization

Reduce battery drain before it becomes a maintenance problem

Poor placement forces LoRaWAN devices to spend more energy per transmission. Loptimizer highlights the best location and configuration so teams can reduce truck rolls and extend sensor lifetime.

  • Compare energy per transmission across tested locations
  • Identify the lowest-power reliable DR and TX power settings
  • Estimate additional battery life for different transmission frequencies
  • Document the selected configuration for future support

From site test to install-ready settings

1

Pair the Loptimizer mobile app with the Pocket Tester hardware over Bluetooth and choose the LoRaWAN region and device profile.

2

Test

Run LinkCheck and optimization campaigns at candidate sensor locations.

3

Compare

Review the score matrix, signal details, and energy impact for each location.

4

Deploy

Install the sensor using the best placement, data rate, and transmit power recommendations.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

What is Loptimizer?

Loptimizer is both the name of the mobile app and the overall LoRaWAN signal testing product. The complete product combines the Loptimizer mobile app with the Pocket Tester hardware, which connects over Bluetooth and shows readiness and local status before tests.

What LoRaWAN regions are supported?

Loptimizer supports the following LoRaWAN regions: US915, AU915, KR920, AS923, EU868, RU864, and IN865.

Can Loptimizer perform link tests?

Yes. Loptimizer includes LinkCheck tests for link quality and optimization campaigns that compare data rate and transmit power combinations.

Why does placement affect battery life?

When LoRaWAN signal quality is weak, devices may need higher transmit power, lower data rates, longer airtime, or repeated transmissions. That increases energy per message.
