1. Overview
The Y953 is a one-to-many wireless control cabinet for greenhouses, aquaculture sites, pump stations, farms, and other locations with distributed equipment. One local control point sends commands to multiple wireless execution nodes and receives configured status feedback, reducing long control-cable runs.
The Y953 uses an on-site wireless control network. It does not require internet access for basic local wireless control. An optional upstream gateway can add platform access and off-site management without changing the control-point and execution-node architecture.
Global radio and power notice: The frequency band, transmit power, antenna, channel plan, and installation must comply with destination-market radio rules. Cabinet and node power supplies must match their nameplates. Confirm radio range and node count through a site survey and on-site testing.
Typical loads include pumps, fans, valves, motors, lighting, aerators, irrigation equipment, and greenhouse actuators.
2. Ordering Information
Y953 is the series designation. The wireless module, control point, execution nodes, circuits, load control, feedback, lost-link behavior, gateway, and enclosures are project-specific.

4. Technical Specifications
Wireless and System Parameters
| Parameter | Specification |
|---|---|
| Product Type | One-to-many wireless control cabinet |
| Radio Technology | LoRa or another project-approved wireless module |
| Control Point | One local control point or control cabinet |
| Execution Nodes | Project-specific quantity and configuration |
| Frequency Band | Defined by the wireless module and destination-market rules |
| Radio Range | Site-specific; depends on obstruction, antenna, height, interference, and link budget |
| Response and Retry | Defined by the module, control logic, and project requirements |
| Circuit Count | Defined for the control point and each execution node |
| Load Capacity | Defined by the circuit devices, load type, and starting conditions |
| Status Feedback | Optional; defined by node hardware and feedback modules |
| Lost-Link Indication | Defined by the wireless module and control logic |

Radio Parameters to Define
| Area | Parameters |
|---|---|
| Module and Antenna | Module model, frequency band, transmit power, antenna type, gain, and cable |
| Topology | Node addressing, groups, relay use, and route design |
| Performance | Command response, feedback interval, retry, duplicate handling, and packet-loss handling |
| Security and Control | Address management, permissions, interlocking, lost-link action, and manual reset |
| Power | Input supply and backup requirements for the control point and every node |
Do not state a fixed range, node count, penetration capability, or response time without module data and site-test results.
5. Control Architecture and Operation
| Component | Function |
|---|---|
| Control Point | Selects a node and circuit, sends commands, and displays configured status |
| Wireless Link | Transfers commands and feedback between the control point and execution nodes |
| Execution Node | Receives commands, operates local circuits, and returns configured feedback |
| Local Load | Pump, fan, valve, motor, lighting, or other controlled equipment |
| Upstream Gateway | Optional connection between the local wireless network and a management platform |
Normal operation follows four steps:
- The control point selects a node and circuit.
- The wireless link sends the command to the addressed node.
- The node operates the circuit after validating the command.
- The node returns the configured switching state, result, or operating feedback.
The project must define the priority among local manual control, wireless commands, automatic logic, and safety interlocks.
6. Communication and Lost-Link Boundaries
During normal communication, the control point can send commands to multiple execution nodes and receive configured status feedback. Response time, feedback interval, retry behavior, and state definitions depend on the selected radio module and control logic.
If a node loses the wireless link:
- The node stops receiving new wireless commands, and the control point should indicate or record the lost-link condition.
- The approved logic determines whether the load holds, stops, enters a safe state, or requires manual reset.
- No single hold-or-stop behavior applies to every Y953 configuration.
- Pumps, motors, greenhouse actuators, and other hazardous loads require a verified lost-link and manual-response procedure.
The on-site wireless link is separate from cloud access. Without an upstream gateway, local wireless control can operate independently. With a gateway, permissions, latency, disconnection, and recovery must be defined separately for the local radio network and the internet connection.
7. Mechanical, Installation, and Commissioning
- Survey and record the control point, nodes, loads, distances, obstructions, metal structures, interference sources, and maintenance access.
- Select the frequency, module, channel plan, antenna, height, and relay arrangement from the survey and local radio rules.
- Keep antennas away from high-current wiring, enclosed metal spaces, and strong interference sources.
- Install and label each node, circuit, load, antenna, protection device, and earthing connection according to approved drawings.
- Qualified personnel must complete power wiring, motor interlocking, protection, radio installation, and commissioning.
- Test every node and circuit for start, stop, feedback, repeated commands, restart recovery, and abnormal indication.
- Force a lost-link condition and verify the indication, load behavior, safety action, and recovery procedure.
- If the system includes a gateway, test local wireless control, upstream communication, internet loss, and recovery separately.
Record the final radio settings, node list, addresses, test locations, results, and accepted lost-link behavior.
8. Important Notes
- Local Wireless System: The Y953's on-site wireless control network is separate from internet or cloud access.
- Radio Performance: Range, node count, penetration, and response time depend on the selected hardware and site conditions.
- Lost-Link Behavior: The project must define and test hold, stop, safe-state, indication, recovery, and manual-reset behavior.
- Control Priority: Local manual control, wireless commands, automatic logic, and safety interlocks require a documented priority.
- Load Safety: Motors, pumps, valves, and actuators require verified starting current, direction, interlocking, and protection.
- Gateway Boundary: An upstream gateway adds management access but does not replace the local wireless control and safety logic.
- Professional Installation: Qualified personnel must perform power installation, protection configuration, radio survey, and commissioning.
- Document Priority: The radio-module documents, node list, approved drawings, control logic, test records, order confirmation, and destination-market compliance documents govern the delivered system.
