44

45

(% style="color:blue" %)** Wiring:**

46

47

~1. WSC1-L and sensors all powered by solar power via MPPT

48

49

2. WSC1-L and sensors connect to each other via RS485/Modbus.

50

51

3. WSC1-L read value from each sensor and send uplink via LoRaWAN

52

53

54

WSC1-L is shipped with a RS485 converter board, for the easy connection to different sensors and WSC1-L. Below is a connection photo:

(% style="color:red" %) ** Notice 1:**

62

63

* All weather sensors and WSC1-L are powered by MPPT solar recharge controller. MPPT is connected to solar panel and storage battery.

64

* WSC1-L has an extra 1000mAh back up battery. So it can work even solar panel and storage battery Fails.

65

* Weather sensors won’t work if solar panel and storage battery fails.

66

67

(% style="color:red" %)** Notice 2:**

68

69

Due to shipment and importation limitation, user is better to purchase below parts locally:

* Solar Panel

* Storage Battery

* MPPT Solar Recharger

74

* Mounting Kit includes pole and mast assembly. Each weather sensor has it’s own mounting assembly, user can check the sensor section in this manual.

* Cabinet.

== 2.2 How it works? ==

79

80

Each WSC1-L is shipped with a worldwide unique set of OTAA keys. To use WSC1-L in a LoRaWAN network, user needs to input the OTAA keys in LoRaWAN network server. After finish installation as above. Create WSC1-L in your LoRaWAN server and Power on WSC1-L , it can join the LoRaWAN network and start to transmit sensor data. The default period for each uplink is 20 minutes.

81

82

83

Open WSC1-L and put the yellow jumper as below position to power on WSC1-L.

84

85

[[image:file:///C:/Users/93456/AppData/Local/Temp/msohtmlclip1/01/clip_image004.png]]

Notice:

1. WSC1-L will auto scan available weather sensors when power on or reboot.

91

1. User can send a downlink command( 增加下发命令的连接) to WSC1-L to do a re-scan on the available sensors.

92

93

== 2.3 Example to use for LoRaWAN network ==

94

95

This section shows an example for how to join the TTN V3 LoRaWAN IoT server. Usages with other LoRaWAN IoT servers are of similar procedure.

96

97

98

[[image:file:///C:/Users/93456/AppData/Local/Temp/msohtmlclip1/01/clip_image005.png]]

Assume the DLOS8 is already set to connect to [[TTN V3 network >>url:https://eu1.cloud.thethings.network/]]. We need to add the WSC1-L device in TTN V3:

103

104

105

(% style="color:blue" %)**Step 1**(%%): Create a device in TTN V3 with the OTAA keys from WSC1-L.

106

107

Each WSC1-L is shipped with a sticker with the default device EUI as below:

108

109

[[image:file:///C:/Users/93456/AppData/Local/Temp/msohtmlclip1/01/clip_image006.png]]

110

111

112

User can enter these keys in the LoRaWAN Server portal. Below is TTN V3 screen shot:

113

114

Add APP EUI in the application.

135

[[image:file:///C:/Users/93456/AppData/Local/Temp/msohtmlclip1/01/clip_image010.png]]

(% style="color:blue" %)**Step 2**(%%): Power on WSC1-L, it will start to join TTN server. After join success, it will start to upload sensor data to TTN V3 and user can see in the panel.

== 2.4 Uplink Payload ==

149

150

Uplink payloads include two types: Valid Sensor Value and other status / control command.

151

152

* Valid Sensor Value: Use FPORT=2

153

* Other control command: Use FPORT other than 2.

=== 2.4.1 Uplink FPORT ===

5, Device Status ===

Uplink the device configures with FPORT=5. Once WSC1-L Joined the network, it will uplink this message to the server. After first uplink, WSC1-L will uplink Device Status every 12 hours

162

163

164

User can also use downlink command(0x2301) to ask WSC1-L to resend this uplink

266

267

Uplink uses FPORT=2 and every 20 minutes send one uplink by default.

268

When sending this payload to LoRaWAN server. WSC1-L will send this in one uplink or several uplinks according to LoRaWAN spec requirement. For example, total length of Payload is 54 bytes.

373

374

* When WSC1-L sending in US915 frequency DR0 data rate. Because this data rate has limitation of 11 bytes payload for each uplink. The payload will be split into below packets and uplink. Uplink 1: 01 03 00 14 02 02 03 02 C9 03

=== 2.4.3 Decoder in TTN V3 ===

389

390

In LoRaWAN platform, user only see HEX payload by default, user needs to use payload formatters to decode the payload to see human-readable value.

== 2.5 Show data on Application Server ==

404

405

Application platform provides a human friendly interface to show the sensor data, once we have sensor data in TTN V3, we can use Datacake to connect to TTN V3 and see the data in Datacake. Below are the steps:

406

407

408

(% style="color:blue" %)**Step 1**(%%): Be sure that your device is programmed and properly connected to the LoRaWAN network.

409

410

(% style="color:blue" %)**Step 2**(%%): Configure your Application to forward data to Datacake you will need to add integration. Go to TTN V3 Console ~-~-> Applications ~-~-> Integrations ~-~-> Add Integrations.

* Query_Length: RS485 Query frame length, Value cannot be greater than 10

522

* Query_Command: RS485 Query frame data to be sent to sensor, cannot be larger than 10 bytes

523

* Read_Length: RS485 response frame length supposed to receive. Max can receive

524

* Valid_Data: valid data from RS485 Response, Valid Data will be added to Payload and upload via LoRaWAN.

525

* has_CRC: RS485 Response crc check (0: no verification required 1: verification required). If CRC=1 and CRC error, valid data will be set to 0.

526

* timeout: RS485 receive timeout (uint:ms). Device will close receive window after timeout

Example:

User need to change external sensor use the type code as address code.

531

532

With a 485 sensor, after correctly changing the address code to A1, the RS485 query frame is shown in the following table:

533

534

535

|0xA1|0x03|0x00|0x00|0x00|0x01|0x9C|0xAA

536

| | | | | | | |

537

538

The response frame of the sensor is as follows:

539

540

541

|0xA1|0x03|0x00|0x02|0x00|0x0A|0x7C|0xAD

542

| | | | | | | |

543

544

Then the following parameters should be:

545

546

* Address_Code range: A1

547

* Query_Length: 8

548

* Query_Command: A103000000019CAA

549

* Read_Length: 8

550

* Valid_Data: 24 (Indicates that the data length is 2 bytes, starting from the 4th byte)

551

* has_CRC: 1

552

* timeout: 1500 (Fill in the test according to the actual situation)

553

554

So the input command is:

555

556

AT+DYSENSOR=A1,8,A103000000019CAA,8,24,1,1500

557

558

559

In every sampling. WSC1-L will auto append the sensor segment as per this structure and uplink.

== 6.6 Total Solar Radiation sensor ~-~- WSS-06 ==

1139

1140

WSS-06 is Total Radiation Sensor can be used to measure the total solar radiation in the spectral range of 0.3 to 3 μm (300 to 3000 nm). If the sensor face is down, the reflected radiation can be measured, and the shading ring can also be used to measure the scattered radiation.

1141

1142

1143

The core device of the radiation sensor is a high-precision photosensitive element, which has good stability and high precision; at the same time, a precision-machined PTTE radiation cover is installed outside the sensing element, which effectively prevents environmental factors from affecting its performance

1144

1145

1146

WSS-06 is designed to support the Dragino Weather station solution.

1147

1148

1149

Users only need to connect WSS-06 RS485 interface to WSC1-L. The weather station main

== 6.7 PAR (Photosynthetically Available Radiation) ~-~- WSS-07 ==

1200

1201

WSS-07 photosynthetically active radiation sensor is mainly used to measure the photosynthetically active radiation of natural light in the wavelength range of 400-700nm.

1202

1203

1204

WSS-07 use precision optical detectors and has an optical filter of 400-700nm, when natural light is irradiated, a voltage signal proportional to the intensity of the incident radiation is generated, and its luminous flux density is proportional to the cosine of the direct angle of the incident light.

WSS-07 is designed to support the Dragino Weather station solution.
