# Devices

## **Devices and Sensors Overview**

Devices and sensors represent the hardware installed in the field and are capable of connecting to the Internet via a Gateway. Communication between the sensor network and the Gateway occurs through **LoRaWAN**. Devices send data via **Uplink** and optionally receive commands via **Downlink**. Devices can be managed in the **Device Settings** section.

## Sensor Identification

Devices are uniquely identified by their **Device ID (devEUI)** and **Device Type**, parameters that cannot be modified by the user as they are provided by the system. Typically, a **Custom Name** is associated with the device ID, which can be set by the user in the **Settings** page.

## Monitoring Types

Move Solutions' devices and sensors are divided into two distinctive monitoring categories, characterized by their sampling properties, the physical parameters they detect, and their mode of operation.

* **Devices for Dynamic Monitoring:** Dynamic devices are designed for detecting data over a specific period of time, such as dynamic changes and structural oscillations. They measure parameters such as **accelerations**, **vibrations**, and other indicators of dynamism within the infrastructure.
* **Devices for Static Monitoring:** Static devices are designed for detecting precise data of static parameters, such as variations and changes in stable conditions. They measure values like **tilt**, **static displacement**, and other static properties essential for analyzing structural conditions. **Communication Nodes** also fall into this category.

## Types of Devices

The use of a variety of sensors provides a detailed and comprehensive view of the structural conditions. The sensors incorporated into the **Move Solutions** system include:
