== 2.1 How it works ==

258

259

260

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.

261

262

263

== 2.2 Quick guide to connect to LoRaWAN server (OTAA) ==

264

265

266

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.

267

268

269

270

271

272

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.

273

274

275

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

276

277

Each PS-LB is shipped with a sticker with the default device EUI as below:

278

279

[[image:image-20230131134744-2.jpeg]]

You can enter this key in the LoRaWAN Server portal. Below is TTN screen shot:

(% style="color:green" %)**Green led**(%%) will fast blink 5 times, device will enter (% style="color:blue" %)**OTA mode**(%%) for 3 seconds. And then start to JOIN LoRaWAN network. (% style="color:green" %)**Green led**(%%) will solidly turn on for 5 seconds after joined in network.

312

313

After join success, it will start to upload messages to TTN and you can see the messages in the panel.

== 2.3 Uplink Payload ==

318

319

320

Uplink payloads have two types:

321

322

* Distance Value: Use FPORT=2

323

* Other control commands: Use other FPORT fields.

324

325

The application server should parse the correct value based on FPORT settings.

326

327

328

=== 2.3.1 Device Status, FPORT~=5 ===

329

330

331

Include device configure status. Once PS-LB Joined the network, it will uplink this message to the server.

332

333

Users can also use the downlink command(0x26 01) to ask PS-LB to resend this uplink.

=== 2.3.4 Probe Model ===

425

426

427

PS-LB has different kind of probe, 0~~20mA represent the full scale of the measuring range. So a 15mA output means different meaning for different probe.

For example.

(% border="1" cellspacing="4" style="background-color:#f7faff; color:black; width:510px" %)

433

|(% style="width:111px" %)**Part Number**|(% style="width:158px" %)**Probe Used**|**0~~20mA scale**|**Example: 10mA meaning**

|(% style="width:111px" %)PS-LB-I5|(% style="width:158px" %)immersion type with 5 meters cable|0~~5 meters|2.5 meters pure water

436

437

The probe model field provides the convenient for server to identical how it should parse the 0~~20mA sensor value and get the correct value.

440

=== 2.3.5 0~~20mA value (IDC_IN) ===

445

(% style="color:#037691" %)**Example**:

458

459

460

=== 2.3.7 IN1&IN2&INT pin ===

461

462

463

IN1 and IN2 are used as digital input pins.

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

565

566

567

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

568

569

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

570

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

571

572

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

573

574

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

575

576

These commands are to configure:

577

578

* General system settings like: uplink interval.

579

* LoRaWAN protocol & radio related command.

580

581

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

= 4. Battery & how to replace =

757

758

== 4.1 Battery Type ==

759

760

761

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.

762

763

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

764

765

[[image:1675146710956-626.png]]

766

767

768

Minimum Working Voltage for the PS-LB:

PS-LB: 2.45v ~~ 3.6v

== 4.2 Replace Battery ==

774

775

776

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

777

778

And make sure the positive and negative pins match.

779

780

781

== 4.3 Power Consumption Analyze ==

782

783

784

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.

785

786

Instruction to use as below:

787

788

(% 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]]

789

790

(% style="color:blue" %)**Step 2:**(%%) Open it and choose

* Product Model

* Uplink Interval

* Working Mode

And the Life expectation in difference case will be shown on the right.

=== 4.3.1 Battery Note ===

811

812

813

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.

814

815

816

=== 4.3.2 Replace the battery ===

817

818

819

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.

820

821

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)
