The command AT+RX2FQ and AT+RX2DR is to let downlink work. to set the correct parameters, user can check the actually downlink parameters to be used. As below. Which shows the RX2FQ should use 868400000 and RX2DR should be 5 1587 +))) 1403 1403 1404 1404 [[image:1654136435598-589.png]] 1405 1405 ... ... @@ -1408,13 +1408,23 @@ 1408 1408 1409 1409 == 6.1 How to upgrade the image? == 1410 1410 1596 +((( 1411 1411 The RS485-BL LoRaWAN Controller is shipped with a 3.5mm cable, the cable is used to upload image to RS485-BL to: 1598 +))) 1412 1412 1413 -* Support new features 1414 -* For bug fix 1415 -* Change LoRaWAN bands. 1600 +* ((( 1601 +Support new features 1602 +))) 1603 +* ((( 1604 +For bug fix 1605 +))) 1606 +* ((( 1607 +Change LoRaWAN bands. 1608 +))) 1416 1416 1610 +((( 1417 1417 Below shows the hardware connection for how to upload an image to RS485-BL: 1612 +))) 1418 1418 1419 1419 [[image:1654136646995-976.png]] 1420 1420 ... ... @@ -1480,6 +1480,8 @@ 1480 1480 * (% style="color:blue" %)**RU864**(%%): frequency bands RU864 1481 1481 * (% style="color:blue" %)**KZ865**(%%): frequency bands KZ865 1482 1482 1678 + 1679 + 1483 1483 = 9.
