Edwin Chen 23.1 10 There are some new models of Dragino sensors support OTA update via Private LoRa Protocol, (Even the sensor runs LoRaWAN protocol by default).
Edwin Chen 1.1 11
Edwin Chen 23.1 12 User can use the OTA update to update the configure file or firmware to the sensors.

Edwin Chen 7.1 112
Edwin Chen 14.1 113 == 4.1 Can i use other devices to connect to PC if i don't have LA66 USB? ==
114
115
Xiaoling 20.2 116 If user doesn't have LA66 USB Adapter, they can still use other Dragino Device to connect to PC for OTA update.
117
118 (% style="color:blue" %)**Steps:**
119
Edwin Chen 14.1 120 * Find the suitable mode which base on LA66 chip ( All LoRaWAN model with LB or LS suffix , such as SN50v3-LB)
Xiaoling 20.2 121
Edwin Chen 14.1 122 * Update the LA66 USB OTA firmware to the device.
Xiaoling 20.2 123
Edwin Chen 14.1 124 * Connect the device to PC via UART interface.
Xiaoling 20.2 125
Edwin Chen 14.1 126 * Make sure power off or update the firmware back to original firmware , because the LA66 USB OTA fimware is not low power consumption firmware. it will consume the battery very fast.
127
Edwin Chen 19.1 128 == 4.2 Where to find OTA Password? ==
129
Xiaoling 20.2 130
Edwin Chen 19.1 131 Each device has a shipped label with OTA Password which is 16 chars. like below. If user don't find this, please send us a photo for the device with Dev EUI to [[support@dragino.com>>mailto:support@dragino.com]] . and we will search the password for you.

Edwin Chen 20.1 136 == 4.3 How about if i upgrade a crashed firmware via OTA update? ==
Edwin Chen 19.1 137
Edwin Chen 20.1 138
Xiaoling 20.2 139 OTA update is done via Bootloader and only change the firmware partition. So update a crash firmware via OTA update won't destroy bootloader and user can use OTA method to update again.
Edwin Chen 20.1 140
Xiaoling 20.2 141 (% style="color:red" %)**Here are notice:**
Edwin Chen 20.1 142
Xiaoling 20.2 143 ~1. OTA update frequency depend on the firmware frequency. If there is no frequency in the firmware. Bootloader will use EU868 as default frequency.
Edwin Chen 20.1 144
Xiaoling 20.2 145 2. OTA update require a reset or reactivate action. If the crash firmware doesn't have them work, user need to manuall push the physic reset button on the PCB or power off/on device.
