191

192

193

The PS-LB is configured as (% style="color:#037691" %)**LoRaWAN OTAA Class A**(%%) mode by default. It has OTAA keys to join LoRaWAN network. To connect a local LoRaWAN network, you need to input the OTAA keys in the LoRaWAN IoT server and activate the PS-LB. It will automatically join the network via OTAA and start to send the sensor value. The default uplink interval is 20 minutes.

198

199

Following is an example for how to join the [[TTN v3 LoRaWAN Network>>url:https://console.cloud.thethings.network/]]. Below is the network structure; we use the [[LPS8v2>>url:https://www.dragino.com/products/lora-lorawan-gateway/item/228-lps8v2.html]] as a LoRaWAN gateway in this example.

The LPS8V2 is already set to connected to [[TTN network >>url:https://console.cloud.thethings.network/]], so what we need to now is configure the TTN server.

206

207

208

(% style="color:blue" %)**Step 1:**(%%) Create a device in TTN with the OTAA keys from PS-LB.

209

= 3. Configure PS-LB via AT Command or LoRaWAN Downlink =

508

509

510

Use can configure PS-LB via AT Command or LoRaWAN Downlink.

511

512

* AT Command Connection: See [[FAQ>>||anchor="H7.FAQ"]].

513

* LoRaWAN Downlink instruction for different platforms: See [[IoT LoRaWAN Server>>http://wiki.dragino.com/xwiki/bin/view/Main/]] section.

514

515

There are two kinds of commands to configure PS-LB, they are:

516

517

* (% style="color:#037691" %)**General Commands**

518

519

These commands are to configure:

520

521

* General system settings like: uplink interval.

522

* LoRaWAN protocol & radio related command.

523

524

They are same for all Dragino Device which support DLWS-005 LoRaWAN Stack. These commands can be found on the wiki:

556

557

If the downlink payload=0100003C, it means set the END Node's Transmit Interval to 0x00003C=60(S), while type code is 01.

671

Users need to configure this parameter according to the type of external probe. In this way, the server can decode according to this value, and convert the current value output by the sensor into water depth or pressure value.

672

673

**AT Command: AT** **+PROBE**

AT+PROBE=aabb

When aa=00, it is the water depth mode, and the current is converted into the water depth value; bb is the probe at a depth of several meters.

678

When aa=01, it is the pressure mode, which converts the current into a pressure value;

680

681

bb represents which type of pressure sensor it is.

= 4. Battery & how to replace =

746

747

== 4.1 Battery Type ==

748

749

750

PS-LB is equipped with a [[8500mAH ER26500 Li-SOCI2 battery>>https://www.dropbox.com/sh/w9l2oa3ytpculph/AAAPtt-apH4lYfCj-2Y6lHvQa?dl=0]]. The battery is un-rechargeable battery with low discharge rate targeting for 8~~10 years use. This type of battery is commonly used in IoT target for long-term running, such as water meter.

751

752

The discharge curve is not linear so can’t simply use percentage to show the battery level. Below is the battery performance.

753

754

755

756

757

Minimum Working Voltage for the PS-LB:

PS-LB: 2.45v ~~ 3.6v

== 4.2 Replace Battery ==

763

764

765

Any battery with range 2.45 ~~ 3.6v can be a replacement. We recommend to use Li-SOCl2 Battery.

766

767

And make sure the positive and negative pins match.

Dragino Battery powered product are all runs in Low Power mode. We have an update battery calculator which base on the measurement of the real device. User can use this calculator to check the battery life and calculate the battery life if want to use different transmit interval.

774

775

Instruction to use as below:

776

777

(% style="color:blue" %)**Step 1:**(%%) Downlink the up-to-date DRAGINO_Battery_Life_Prediction_Table.xlsx from: [[https:~~/~~/www.dropbox.com/sh/zwex6i331j5oeq2/AACIMf9f_v2qsJ39CuMQ5Py_a?dl=0>>https://www.dropbox.com/sh/zwex6i331j5oeq2/AACIMf9f_v2qsJ39CuMQ5Py_a?dl=0]]

=== 4.3.1 Battery Note ===

800

801

802

The Li-SICO battery is designed for small current / long period application. It is not good to use a high current, short period transmit method. The recommended minimum period for use of this battery is 5 minutes. If you use a shorter period time to transmit LoRa, then the battery life may be decreased.

803

804

805

=== 4.3.2 Replace the battery ===

806

807

808

You can change the battery in the PS-LB.The type of battery is not limited as long as the output is between 3v to 3.6v. On the main board, there is a diode (D1) between the battery and the main circuit. If you need to use a battery with less than 3.3v, please remove the D1 and shortcut the two pads of it so there won't be voltage drop between battery and main board.

809

810

The default battery pack of PS-LB includes a ER26500 plus super capacitor. If user can't find this pack locally, they can find ER26500 or equivalence, which will also work in most case. The SPC can enlarge the battery life for high frequency use (update period below 5 minutes)
