== 2.1 How it works? ==

124

125

126

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.

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

131

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.

134

135

136

[[image:1664501652064-326.png]]

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:

141

142

143

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

Once enter Alarm mode, the (% style="color:green" %)**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.

402

403

404

Two ways to exit alarm mode:

405

406

* Server send a downlink command to exit.

407

* User fast press the RED button 10 times.

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.

651

652

653

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 **~-~-> ** Set to use xx as max fix time.

659

660

=== 3.3.9 Set PDOP value for GPS fix accuracy ===

670

671

672

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.

673

674

675

A GPS packet with lower PDOP has higher accuracy. PDOP default value is 2.0

* AT Command:

AT+PDOP=2.5 **~-~-> ** Set PDOP to 2.5

681

682

683

* Downlink Payload (prefix 0xAD):
