1. Introduction

1.1 What is DS03A-CB NB-IoT/LTE-M Door Sensor

The Dragino DS03A-CB is a  NB-IoT/LTE-M Door Sensor for Internet of Things solution. It detects door open/close status and uplinks to IoT server via NB-IoT/CAT-M1 network. user can see the door status, open duration, open counts in the IoT Server.

The DS03A-CB will send periodically data every 2 hours as well as for each door open/close action. It also counts the door open times and calculates the last door open duration. Users can also disable the uplink for each open/close event, instead, DS03A-CB can count each open event and uplink periodically.

DS03A-CB supports Datalog Feature, it can save the data when there is no NB-IoT/LTE-M network and uplink when network recover.

DS03A-CB has the Open Alarm Feature, user can set this feature so the device will send an alarm if the door has been open for a certain time.

DS03A-CB is designed for outdoor use. It has a weatherproof enclosure and industrial level battery to work in low to high temperatures

DS03A-CB supports different uplink methods including MQTT, MQTTs, UDP , TCP or CoAP for different application requirement, and support uplinks to various IoT Servers.

DS03A-CB supports BLE configure and OTA update which make user easy to use.

DS03A-CB is powered by 8500mAh Li-SOCI2 battery, it is designed for long-term use up to several years.

DS03A-CB has optional built-in SIM card and default IoT server connection version. Which makes it works with simple configuration.

1.5 Sleep mode and working mode

Deep Sleep Mode: Sensor doesn't have any NB-IoT/LTE-M activate. This mode is used for storage and shipping to save battery life.

Working Mode: In this mode, Sensor will work as NB-IoT Sensor to Join NB-IoT network and send out sensor data to server. Between each sampling/tx/rx periodically, sensor will be in IDLE mode), in IDLE mode, sensor has the same power consumption as Deep Sleep mode.

1.6 Button & LEDs

Behavior on ACTFunctionAction
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/LTE-M 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.

1.7 BLE connection

DS03A-CB support BLE remote configure and firmware update.

BLE can be used to configure the parameter of sensor or see the console output from sensor. BLE will be only activate on below case:

  • Press button to send an uplink
  • Press button to active device.
  • Device Power on or reset.

If there is no activity connection on BLE in 60 seconds, sensor will shut down BLE module to enter low power mode.

2. Use DS03A-CB to communicate with IoT Server

2.1 Send data to IoT server via NB-IoT network

The DS03A-CB is equipped with a NB-IoT module, the pre-loaded firmware in DS03A-CB 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 DS03A-CB.

Below shows the network structure:

image-20240722100019-1.jpeg

There are two version: -GE and -1T version of DS03A-CB.

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 DS03A-CB 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.

3. Configure DS03A-CB

3.1 Configure Methods

DS03A-CB supports below configure method:

​​​3.2  Serial Access Password

After the Bluetooth or UART connection is successful, use the Serial Access Password to enter the AT command window.

The label on the box of the node will print the initial password: AT+PIN=xxxxxx, and directly use the six-digit password to access the AT instruction window.

image-20240826190140-1.png

If you need to change the password, use AT+PWORD=xxxxxx (6 characters), -CB nodes only support lowercase letters.

image-20240826190145-2.png

3.9 Set the QoS level

This command is used to set the QoS level of MQTT.

AT command:

  • AT+MQOS=xx   // 0~2

Downlink command: 0x07

Format: Command Code (0x07) followed by 1 byte.

3.10 Clock logging

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-20240715153212-4.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: 0x08

Format: Command Code (0x08) followed by 5 bytes.

  • Example 1: Downlink Payload: 08 01 FFFF 0F 08             // Set SHT record time: AT+CLOCKLOG=1,65535,15,8
  • Example 2: Downlink Payload: 08 01 04B0 0F 08             // Set SHT record time: AT+CLOCKLOG=1,1200,15,8

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

                     AT+TLSMOD=1,2   //Perform server and client authentication if requested by the remote server

Downlink command: 0x09

Format: Command Code (0x09) followed by 2 bytes.
