2. LoRaWAN and module-specific parameters (module key: 0x2111) and Supervisor module
This documentation applies to all sensors with a module key of 0x22XX or 0x2211.
The downlinks of the LoRa modules are all executed on port 4 and commands to be executed (EXEC) on port 5. These are marked with (EXEC) after the respective resource.
| Module | Module key | Group | Group ID | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| LoRa | 0x2211 |
Network resources | 0x00 |
DEVEUI of the device (read only) |
| LoRa | 0x2211 |
Transmission settings | 0x01 |
Transmission settings, such as adaptive data rate ADR, confirmed uplinks, etc. |
| LoRa | 0x2211 |
Rejoin settings | 0x02 |
Settings for network testing and automatic reconnection in case of connection loss. |
| LoRa | 0x2211 |
GNSS group | 0x03 |
Settings and timings for localization options (for sensors with tracking feature) |
| Supervisor | 0x3211 |
System | 0x00 |
Reset or restart device |
Tables for cross-product modules can be found in the Generic NFC and Downlink documentation . For more information on configuring sensor communication, refer to the respective generic LoRaWAN® or Mioty® documentation, depending on the version.
The current settings for a parameter can be queried by not sending a configuration value with the downlink. Example: To read the current setting of the ADR parameter, the following downlink can be used. The downlink must be sent to port 6.
The sensor responds on port 3.
