Xiaoling 58.22 338 === 3.3.3 Configure read commands for each sampling ===
339
340 (((
341 During each sampling, we need confirm what commands we need to send to the RS485 sensors to read data. After the RS485 sensors send back the value, it normally include some bytes and we only need a few from them for a shorten payload.
342
343 To save the LoRaWAN network bandwidth, we might need to read data from different sensors and combine their valid value into a short payload.
344
345 This section describes how to achieve above goals.
346
347 During each sampling, the RS485-LN can support 15 commands to read sensors. And combine the return to one or several uplink payloads.
348
349
350 **Each RS485 commands include two parts:**
351
352 ~1. What commands RS485-LN will send to the RS485 sensors. There are total 15 commands from **AT+COMMAD1**, **ATCOMMAND2**,…, to **AT+COMMANDF**. All commands are of same grammar.
353
354 2. How to get wanted value the from RS485 sensors returns from by 1). There are total 15 AT Commands to handle the return, commands are **AT+DATACUT1**,**AT+DATACUT2**,…, **AT+DATACUTF** corresponding to the commands from 1). All commands are of same grammar.
355
356 3. Some RS485 device might has longer delay on reply, so user can use AT+CMDDL to set the timeout for getting reply after the RS485 command is sent. For example **AT+CMDDL1=1000** to send the open time to 1000ms
357
358
359 After we got the valid value from each RS485 commands, we need to combine them together with the command **AT+DATAUP**.
360
361
362 Below are examples for the how above AT Commands works.
363
364
365 **AT+COMMANDx : **This command will be sent to RS485 devices during each sampling, Max command length is 14 bytes. The grammar is:
366
367 (% border="1" style="background-color:#4bacc6; color:white; width:499px" %)
368 |(% style="width:496px" %)(((
369 **AT+COMMANDx=xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx,m**
370
371 **xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx: The RS485 command to be sent**
372
373 **m: 0: no CRC, 1: add CRC-16/MODBUS in the end of this command**
374 )))
375
376 For example, if we have a RS485 sensor. The command to get sensor value is: 01 03 0B B8 00 02 46 0A. Where 01 03 0B B8 00 02 is the Modbus command to read the register 0B B8 where stored the sensor value. The 46 0A is the CRC-16/MODBUS which calculate manually.
377
378 In the RS485-LN, we should use this command AT+COMMAND1=01 03 0B B8 00 02,1 for the same.
379
380
381 **AT+DATACUTx : **This command defines how to handle the return from AT+COMMANDx, max return length is 45 bytes.
382
383 (% border="1" style="background-color:#4bacc6; color:white; width:510px" %)
384 |(% style="width:510px" %)(((
385 **AT+DATACUTx=a,b,c**

387 * **a: length for the return of AT+COMMAND**
388 * **b:1: grab valid value by byte, max 6 bytes. 2: grab valid value by bytes section, max 3 sections.**
