TrackerD is an (% style="color:blue" %)**Open Source LoRaWAN Tracker**(%%) based on (% style="color:blue" %)**ESP32 MCU**(%%) and (% style="color:blue" %)**Semtech LoRa Wireless Chip**.

)))

(((

In TrackerD, there are various sensors such as GPS, WiFi, BLE, Temperature, Humidity, Motion Detection, and Buzzer. User can use TrackerD for different tracking scenario.

20

21

TrackerD is program friendly. Developers can use Arduino IDE to customize the software of TrackerD to fit their IoT solution.

22

23

The LoRa wireless technology used in TrackerD allows the user to send data and reach extremely long ranges at low data-rates. It provides ultra-long range spread spectrum communication and high interference immunity whilst minimizing current consumption. It targets professional tracking services.

)))

(((

TrackerD is equipped with a (% style="color:blue" %)**1000mAh Li-on rechargeable battery**(%%). Each TrackerD has a worldwide unique OTAA keys to join the LoRaWAN network.

== 2.1 How it works? ==

122

123

124

TrackerD is configured as LoRaWAN OTAA Class A GPS tracker by default. It has OTAA keys to join LoRaWAN network. To connect a LoRaWAN network, user need to input the OTAA keys in the LoRaWAN IoT server and push reset button of TrackerD (next to USB port). TrackerD will wake up and auto join the network via OTAA.

== 2.2 Quick guide to connect to LoRaWAN server ==

129

130

131

Here is an example for how to join the [[TTNv3 LoRaWAN Network>>url:https://eu1.cloud.thethings.network]]. Below is the network structure, we use LPS8N as LoRaWAN gateway in this example.

132

133

134

[[image:1664501652064-326.png]]

The LPS8N is already set to connect to [[TTN V3 network >>url:https://eu1.cloud.thethings.network/]]. What the rest need to is register this device in TTN V3:

139

140

141

(% style="color:blue" %)**Step 1**:(%%) Create a device in TTN V3 with the OTAA keys from TrackerD.

142

143

Each TrackerD is shipped with a sticker with the default device EUI as below:

144

145

176

177

178

(% style="color:blue" %)**Step 3:**(%%) TrackerD will auto join to the LoRaWAN network. After join success, TrackerD will start to upload message to IoT server.

179

180

181

(% style="color:blue" %)**Positioning Mode(SMOD):**

182

183

* **GPS ONLY(Factory Settings): **only get GPS location info.

184

* **BLE ONLY: **Only obtain iBeacon info via BLE. Design for Indoor tracking.

185

* **GPS/BLE Hybrid: **Combination for Indoor and Outdoor tracking.

**Important note:**

1. When power is low (<2.84v), GPS won't be able to get location info and GPS feature will be disabled and the location field will be filled with 0x0FFFFFFF, 0x0FFFFFFF.

256

257

2. In firmware version v1.5, Roll & Pitch is disabled by default.

258

259

3. When enable 9-axis motion sensor, the total payload will be 15 bytes, while US915/AU915 DR0 accept only 11 bytes payload. In this case, the payload on server will be ignore and shows as below:

== 2.6 Alarm Mode ==

User can push the **RED button** by more than 5 seconds to enter Alarm Mode.

401

402

403

Once enter Alarm mode, the **GREEN LED** will flash 3 times, the buzzer will alarm for 5 seconds, then TrackerD will immediately send a packet without location info and then send a data packet with GPS positioning information. After that, the device will send 60 packets at 1-minute intervals. The Alarm flag in the payload will be set for the next 60 packets unless exit alert mode.

404

405

406

Two ways to exit alarm mode:

407

408

* Server send a downlink command to exit.

409

* User fast press the RED button 10 times.

410

411

When exit alarm mode, **RED LED** will light up for 5 seconds, indicating that the alarm mode is exited. And the alert flag will be set to false.

GPS室外定位模式：设备默认模式，设备入网后会发送device当前模式下的信息，随后立即定位发送数据包（默认是3分钟定位，超过将发送无效数据），如果出现意外情况下，快速按键3下，将会发出报警消息（默认每分钟发送一次）。GPS还有一种logdata模式，在断网的情况下将数据存储下来，等到有网的时候，一次将数据以每10秒上报。

623

624

BLE室内定位模式：设备入网后会发送device当前模式下的信息，随后立即定位发送数据包（默认是5秒，超过将发送无效数据），如果出现意外情况下，快速按键3下，将会发出报警消息（默认每3分钟发送一次）。

625

626

GPS和BLE混动模式：设备入网后会发送device当前模式下的信息，随后立即判断是否在室内，如果是就进行BLE定位，不是就GPS定位。如果出现意外情况下，快速按键3下，将会发出报警消息（默认每分钟发送一次）。

627

628

运动模式：设备入网后会发送device当前模式下的信息，随后发送GPS定位数据，设备判断是否在运动，没有运动传感器没有检测到动作，立即进入静止状态（默认20分钟），如果产生运动，将每5分钟发送一次数据，再第五分钟后检测设备有误运动，无将切换到静止状态，有立即发送数据。

653

654

655

656

657

658

If AT+FTIME=0. The GPS module will be always powered and positioning. This will highly increase the power consumption (up to 50mA). When AT+FTIME=0, it will improve fix accuracy and shorten the acquire time for next uplink.

* AT Command:

AT+FTIME=xx **~-~-> ** Set to use xx as max fix time.

PDOP(Position Dilution of Precision) filter, TrackerD will only accept GPS data with a lower PDOP value than pre-configure PDOP value. If device can't get a valid GPS packet within FTIME timeout, it will use the GPS data with lowest PDOP value to server.

678

679

680

A GPS packet with lower PDOP has higher accuracy. PDOP default value is 2.0
