b. LoRaWAN network pairing configuration Only applies to the ACW-THO / LW8 version. On LORAWAN networks, there are two methods of pairing to allow a module to connect to the network. - OTAA (Over The Air Activation): In this mode, the communication keys are assigned and transmitted by the network each time the module is started or requested to connect.
c. Eco-energy mode configuration (Energy saver) Keep alive frame Operation mode emission period choice Temperature and Low threshold hygrometry measure High threshold period Offset applied to each measurement, and to the displayed value. Emission period T°C gap (compared to through operated the last statement networks sent).
Once the configuration is complete, do not leave the module connected to USB. This mode of operation is very energy intensive. When you remove the USB link without disconnecting the battery, the module resets and automatically returns to normal operation. Frames format a.
