Abstract

It is provided a sensor device comprising: a proximity sensor (); a processor (); a wireless communication module (); and a memory (). When the sensor device is in a first functional state () and the proximity sensor detects a predetermined change in its proximity, the sensor device is configured to transition from the first functional state, in which wireless communication is inactivated, to a second functional state (), in which wireless communication module is enabled. The predetermined change in its proximity is a removal of transport protection, comprising removal of a metallic tape over the proximity sensor, whereby the proximity sensor is capable to detect the removal of the metallic tape based on inductive sensing.
