The Smartico WM-LR is a wireless M-Bus reader for remote data collection from gas, water, electricity, and heat meters using the wM-Bus protocol, with transmission via LoRaWAN networks. It also includes an input for wired connection to the digital interface of Kamstrup meters, which can additionally be used for pulse counting. The waterproof housing allows outdoor installation, and the compact design enables mounting in confined spaces using pipe or surface adapters. In this guide, four water meters are connected to the device.

This guide describes how to receive telemetry from the Smartico WM-LR over LoRaWAN using ChirpStack and a ThingsBoard MQTT integration, and visualize the data on a dashboard.
