11 = 2. MQTT Features =
12
13 The MQTT protocol runs on TCP / IP or other network protocols and provides an ordered, lossless, bidirectional connection. Features include:
14
15 * The publish / subscribe messaging pattern used, which provides one-to-many messaging for decoupling from the application.
16 * Message-masking mechanism for payload content.
17 * There are three Quality of Service (QoS) for transmitting messages:
18 * At most, messages of this level may be lost or duplicated, and message postings depend on the underlying TCP / IP network. That is: <= 1
19 * At one time, this level will ensure that the message arrives, but the message may be repeated. That is:> = 1
20 * Only once, make sure the message arrives only once. That is: = 1. In some demanding billing systems, you can use this level Data transfer and protocol exchange is minimized (protocol header only 2 bytes) to reduce network traffic
21 * Notification mechanism, notify the transmission of both sides when an exception occurs

27 The server we use here is ThingSpeak which has an intuitive chart to show the test result for our test.The ThingSpeak IoT service now supports MQTT subscriptions to receive instant updates when [[ThingSpeak>>url:https://thingspeak.com/]] channel gets updated. The method here is general and can be used with other IoT servers for MQTT connection as well.

The end node will get this message and check if they need to do something. Similar with Uplink Example, we will first try to do it in PC, then do it in Linux side, and finally integrate it with LoRa.

55 MQTT agreement to achieve the need: client and server There are three identities in the MQTT protocol: Publish, Broker (server), Subscribe. Among them, the publisher and the subscriber of the message are all clients, the broker is the server, and the publisher can be both the subscriber and the subscriber. MQTT transmission of information is divided into: Topic and payload in two parts Topic, can be understood as the type of message subscribers Subscribe, you will receive the theme of the message content (payload) The payload, which can be understood as the content of the message, refers to the specific content to be used by the subscribers.

59 To use the server, we need to register an account on [[ThingSpeak>>url:https://thingspeak.com/]] . Then create a channel and type the channel info. As shown below, the Channel ID is the unique ID to store our data in [[ThingSpeak>>url:https://thingspeak.com/]] .

277 == 5.1 Configure to support general mqtt server ==
278
279 First, try to run **mosquitto_pub** in Linux console to send a data to MQTT server.
280
281 For example: for ThingSpeak, a MQTT publish command is:
282
283 (% class="box infomessage" %)
284 (((
285 **mosquitto_pub -h mqtt.thingspeak.com -p 1883 -u dragino -P QZXTAKE88V3S7O2J  -i dragino_Client -t channels/200893/publish/B9Z0R25QNVEBKIFY -m "field1=34&field2=89&status=MQTTPUBLISH"**
286 )))
287
288 What now we need to put in the LG01 is how to combine this command.
289
290 1. LG01 web console -> Sensor -> MQTT
291 1. Choose general Server
292 1. [[image:image-20220531142342-37.png]](((
293 Refer to your server to fill in.

298 1. [[image:image-20220531142447-38.png]](((
299 Ex:ThingSpeak Server
300
301
302 )))
303
304 According to MQTT commands: mosquitto_pub, we need to put
305
306 * server[-h] : mqtt.thingspeak.com
307 * port[-p] : 1883
308 * User Name[-u]: dragino
309 * Password[-P]:QZXTAKE88V3S7O2J
310 * Client ID[-i]: dragino_Client
311 * topic_format[-t]: channels/CHANNEL/publish/WRITE_API
312 * data_format[-m]: DATA&status=MQTTPUBLISH
313
314 In the mqtt script, the upper **CHANNEL** will be replaced by the parameter (remote channel in IoT server). and the **WRITE_API** will be replaced by the settings in write api key. the **DATA** will be replaced by the value stored in the /var/iot/channels/LOCAL_CHANNEL file.
315
316 MQTT script will keep checking the files in /var/iot/channels/ . If it find a match Local channel, then the MQTT script will send out the data of this local channel to a remote channel according to the setting above.
317
318 User can also enable MQTT debug in the LG01 ~-~-> IoT Server settings and run logread in Linux console to see how the mqtt command is compose. below is an example:

325 == 5.2 What is Watchdog feature? ==
326
327 LG01 for 4.3.3 version,we have added watchdog feature. In order to avoid the gateway running process will get stuck. So add writing action on every times.
