127 == 2.1 How it works? ==
128
129
130 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.
131
132
133
134 == 2.2 Quick guide to connect to LoRaWAN server ==
135
136
137 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.

141
142
143
144 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:
145
146
147 (% style="color:blue" %)**Step 1**:(%%) Create a device in TTN V3 with the OTAA keys from TrackerD.
148
149 Each TrackerD is shipped with a sticker with the default device EUI as below:
150
151

449 TrackerD supports BLE scans for indoor positioning. User can set [[**SMOD**>>||anchor="H3.2.7SetPositioningMode"]] to **BLE pure** or **GPS/BLE hybrid** so TrackerD will scan BLE iBeacon and find the strongest iBeacon info and uplink.
450
451 User can set **[[BLEMASK>>||anchor="H3.2.11A0SetBLEMASKtofilterBLEiBeacon"]]** so TrackerD will only search the iBeacons which have UUID that match the BLEMASK settings.

923 User can use the TrackerD's USB port to upgrade firmware into it. The hardware connection for upgrade firmware is as below:
924
925
926 (% style="color:blue" %)**Step1:  **(%%)Connect TrackerD and PC via USB cable shipped with TrackerD.
927
928
929 (% style="color:blue" %)**Step2:** (%%) Install CH9102 driver in the PC.
930
931 After installation of the driver and plug in TrackerD, user should be able to see com port in PC's device manager.
