1. Introduction

1.1 What is CPL03-NB NB-IoT Pulse/Contact Sensor

The Dragino CPL03-NB is a NB-IoT Contact Sensor for Internet of Things solution. It detects dry contact status, open time, open counts, and then upload to IoT server via NB-IoT network.

The CPL03-NB will send periodically data every day as well as for each dry contact action. It also counts the contact open times and calculate last open duration. User can also disable the uplink for each open/ close event, instead, device can count each open event and uplink periodically.

CPL03-NB supports open alarm feature, user can set open alarm for instant notice. CPL03-NB supports Datalog feature, it can save the data when there is no NB-IoT network and uplink when network recover.

CPL03-NB is designed for outdoor use. It has a weatherproof enclosure and industrial level battery to work in low to high temperatures.

CPL03-NB supports different uplink methods including MQTT, MQTTs, UDP & TCP for different application requirement, and support uplinks to various IoT Servers.

CPL03-NB supports BLE configure and OTA update which make user easy to use.

CPL03-NB is powered by 8500mAh Li-SOCI2 battery, it is designed for long-term use up to several years.

CPL03-NB has optional built-in SIM card and default IoT server connection version. Which makes it works with simple configuration.

Pressing ACT between 1s < time < 3sSend an uplink

If sensor has already attached to NB-IoT network, sensor will send an uplink packet, blue led will blink once.
Meanwhile, BLE module will be active and user can connect via BLE to configure device.

Pressing ACT for more than 3sActive Device

Green led will fast blink 5 times, device will enter OTA mode for 3 seconds. And then start to  attach NB-IoT network.
Green led will solidly turn on for 5 seconds after joined in network.
Once sensor is active, BLE module will be active and user can connect via BLE to configure device, no matter if device attach NB-IoT network or not.

Fast press ACT 5 times.Deactivate DeviceRed led will solid on for 5 seconds. Means device is in Deep Sleep Mode.

Note: When the device is executing a program, the buttons may become invalid. It is best to press the buttons after the device has completed the program execution.

2. Use CPL03-NB to communicate with IoT Server

2.1 Send data to IoT server via NB-IoT network

The CPL03-NB is equipped with a NB-IoT module, the pre-loaded firmware in CPL03-NB will get environment data from sensors and send the value to local NB-IoT network via the NB-IoT module.  The NB-IoT network will forward this value to IoT server via the protocol defined by CPL03-NB.

Below shows the network structure:

image-20231012085712-2.png

There are two version: -GE and -1D version of CPL03-NB.

GE Version: This version doesn't include SIM card or point to any IoT server. User needs to use AT Commands to configure below two steps to set CPL03-NB send data to IoT server.

  • Install NB-IoT SIM card and configure APN. See instruction of Attach Network.

Below shows result of different server as a glance.

  • AT+TR=900        // The unit is seconds, and the default is to record data once every 900 seconds (15 minutes, the minimum can be set to 180 seconds)
  • AT+NOUD=8     //  The device uploads 8 sets of recorded data by default. Up to 32 sets of record data can be uploaded.

The diagram below explains the relationship between TR, NOUD, and TDC more clearly:

2.6 Trggier an uplink by external interrupt

CPL03-NB has an external trigger interrupt function. Users can use the PB15 pin to trigger the upload of data packets.

AT command:

  • AT+INTMOD         // Set the trigger interrupt mode
  • AT+INTMOD=0    // Disable Interrupt
  • AT+INTMOD=1    // Trigger by rising and falling edge
  • AT+INTMOD=2    // Trigger by falling edge
  • AT+INTMOD=3    // Trigger by rising edge

  

2.7 Enable / Disable Alarm

Feature: Enable/Disable Alarm for open/close event. Default value 0.

AT Command: 

Command ExampleFunctionResponse
AT+DISALARM=1End node will only send packets in TDC time.OK
AT+DISALARM=0End node will send packets in TDC time or status change for door sensorOK

2.8 Alarm Base on Timeout

It only takes effect when AT+MOD=1.

CPL03-NB can monitor the timeout for a status change, this feature can be used to monitor some events such as door opening too long etc. Related Parameters are:

1. Keep Status: Status to be monitor

Keep Status = 1: Monitor Close to Open event

Keep Status = 0: Monitor Open to Close event

2. Keep Time: Timeout to send an Alarm

Range 0 ~ 65535(0xFFFF) seconds.

If keep time = 0, Disable Alarm Base on Timeout feature.

If keep time > 0, device will monitor the keep status event and send an alarm when status doesn’t change after timeout.

AT Command to configure:

AT+TTRIG=1,30   --> When the Keep Status change from connect to disconnect, and device remains in disconnect status for more than 30 seconds. CPL03-NB will send an uplink packet, the Alarm bit (the second bit of 1st byte of payload) on this uplink packet is set to 1.

AT+TTRIG=0,0       --> Default Value, disable timeout Alarm.

2.9 TTRIG timeout status alarm

It only takes effect when AT+MOD=1.
It needs to be used with AT+TTRIG . When TTRIG times out and causes an alarm, and the status does not change subsequently, an alarm packet will be sent at the alarm interval.

2.18 Clock logging (Since firmware version v1.2.1)

Sometimes when we deploy lots of end nodes in field. We want all sensors sample data at the same time, and upload these data together for analyze. In such case, we can use clock loging feature.

We can use this command to set the start time of data recording and the time interval to meet the requirements of the specific collection time of data.

  • AT Command: AT+CLOCKLOG=a,b,c,d

a: 0: Disable Clock logging.   1: Enable Clock Logging

b: Specify First sampling start second: range (0 ~ 3599, 65535)         // Note: If parameter b is set to 65535, the log period starts after the node accesses the network and sends packets.

c: Specify the sampling interval: range (0 ~ 255 minutes)

d: How many entries should be uplink on every TDC (max 32)

Note: To disable clock recording, set the following parameters: AT+CLOCKLOG=1,65535,0,0

image-20240315141254-1.png

Example:

AT+CLOCKLOG=1,65535,1,5

After the node sends the first packet, data is recorded to the memory at intervals of 1 minute. For each TDC uplink, the uplink load will include: battery information + the last 5 memory records (payload + timestamp).

image-20240316175728-1.png

Note: Users need to synchronize the server time before configuring this command. If the server time is not synchronized before this command is configured, the command takes effect only after the node is reset.

  • Downlink  Command: 0x0A

Format: Command Code (0x0A) followed by 5 bytes.

  • Example 1: Downlink Payload: 0A01FFFF0F08             // Set SHT record time: AT+CLOCKLOG=1,65535,15,8
  • Example 1: Downlink Payload: 0A0104B00F08             // Set SHT record time: AT+CLOCKLOG=1,1200,15,8

Note: When entering the downlink payload, there must be no Spaces between bytes.

Get current Settings

0,0,NULL  (default)

OK

 

AT+BKDNS=a,b,c

 

a: Enable/Disable dynamic domain name resolution.

1: Disable dynamic domain name update. The ip address will be saved after the domain name is resolved, if the next domain name resolution fails, the last saved ip address will be used.
2: Enable dynamic domain name update. The ip address will be saved after domain name resolution, if the next domain name resolution fails, the last saved ip address will be used, and the domain name resolution will be updated regularly according to the time set by the customer.
b: Set the time to update the domain name resolution at regular intervals.

 

Unit: hour

 

c: Set the IP address manually.

The format is the same as AT+SERVADDR.

 If domain name resolution fails, this ip address will be used directly, if domain name resolution succeeds, parameter c will be updated to the successfully resolved IP address.

Example:

  • AT+BKDNS=1,0        //Dynamic domain name resolution is disabled.
  • AT+BKDNS=2,1        //The dynamic domain name resolution function is enabled and the automatic update time is set to 1 hour.
  • AT+BKDNS=2,4,3.69.98.183,1883      //The dynamic domain name resolution function is enabled and the automatic update time is set to 4 hour, and manually set the ip address, if the domain name failed to resolve, it will directly use this ip to communicate. When the next domain name resolution is successful, it will be updated to the ip address of the successful resolution.
