2. Configure LDDS04 to connect to LoRaWAN network 2.1 How it works The LDDS04 is configured as LoRaWAN OTAA Class A mode by default. It has OTAA keys to join LoRaWAN network. To connect a local LoRaWAN network, you need to input the OTAA keys in the LoRaWAN IoT server and power on the LDDS04.
Page 15
Step 1: Create a device in TTN with the OTAA keys from LDDS04. Each LDDS04 is shipped with a sticker with the default device EUI as below: You can enter this key in the LoRaWAN Server portal. Below is TTN screen shot:...

And make sure the positive and negative pins match. 4.3 Power Consumption Analyze Dragino Battery powered product are all runs in Low Power mode. We have an update battery calculator which base on the measurement of the real device. User can use this calculator to check the battery life and calculate the battery life if want to use different transmit interval.
4.3.2 Replace the battery You can change the battery in the LDDS04.The type of battery is not limited as long as the output is between 3v to 3.6v. On the main board, there is a diode (D1) between the battery and the main circuit.
