== 2.1 How it works? ==

126

127

128

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.

129

130

131

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

132

133

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.

137

138

139

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:

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

[[image:file:///C:/Users/93456/AppData/Local/Temp/msohtmlclip1/01/clip_image002.png]]

Input these keys to their LoRaWAN Server portal. Below is TTN V3 screen shot:

**(% style="color:blue" %)Step 2**:(%%) Power on TrackerD by using the on board switch.

172

173

174

**(% 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.

175

== 2.6 Alarm Mode ==

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

381

382

383

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.

384

385

386

Two ways to exit alarm mode:

387

388

* Server send a downlink command to exit.

389

* User fast press the RED button 10 times.

390

391

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.

=== 3.3.8 Set MAX GPS position time ===

614

615

Set max positioning time, default is 150 seconds. TrackerD will try to get location info within this period. If fail to get position data within this time, TrackerD will use 000000 for latitude and longitude.

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 à 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.

638
