    Parameters Configuration PULSE915-LRW supports UART port wired or wireless parameter configuration. We can query and write parameters like initial reading, pulse constant, RTC real-time clock, pulse type (single or double pulse), sensor type (hall or reed switch) and some LoRaWAN information.
  • Page 7: Software Interface Introduction

    PULSE915-LRW Configuration Guide Software Interface Introduction 2.3.1 COM Section UART: Select the configuration tool or device serial port number. Baudrate: Select the baud rate of the configuration tool or device. Mode: Select wired configuration mode or wireless configuration mode, according to the device model NO., select the corresponding mode.
  • Page 8: Meter Section

    PULSE915-LRW Configuration Guide 2.3.3 METER Section Pulse: Fill in the number of pulses to set the initial flow value. The initial total number of pulses = initial dosage * pulse constant. Example: the reading of water meter is 713.0m³, the pulse constant of water meter is 10.Hence, the pulse number is: 713.0 x 10=7130.

  • Page 12 Hold a magnet close to the red area shown in Figure 2-1. Within 4 to 9 seconds, remove the magnet and PULSE915-LRW will enter configuration mode. Importantly, the magnet provided is a strong magnet, hence the magnet needs to be removed out of the area as the defined time range for the specific function, otherwise, PULSE915 will continuously be triggered and automatically enter to the other mode.
  • Page 13 The trigger position is shown in Figure 2-1. Figure 2- 1 Magnet activation position Note: When you trigger success(4-9s(typically 5s), configuration model), the widow will shows the information just as following picture, then the PULSE915-LRW will enter into configuration mode.

  • Page 14 PULSE915-LRW Configuration Guide Step 4: In configuration mode, various commands can be set for PULSE915-LRW through the configuration software. For example, clicking on various query buttons returns the corresponding value. Parameters such as initial meter index data, pulse weight, clock, sensor type and measurement mode can be configured in “Metering parameter”...
  • Page 15 PULSE915-LRW Configuration Guide Step 5: Parameters such as reporting period, device address and data format can be set. We just need to click the corresponding button on the right to set the parameters. Data report time o’clock in minutes can be set according to customer requirements. For example, set as 1440 minutes that indicates 24 hours.
  • Page 16 PULSE915-LRW Configuration Guide Step 6: In the “JoinParam” area, users can read and set join mode, DevEui, DevAddr, AppEui and APPKEY parameters of the LoRaWAN module.  If the user select the module in OTAA mode, you can set the DevEui, AppEui and AppKey parameters.
  • Page 17 PULSE915-LRW Configuration Guide Users also can Set by using AT command, for example: AT+JOINMODE=0 (Set OTAA mode) Set APPEUI [<- 11:52:08.301] AT+APPEUI=1122334455667788 [-> 11:52:08.375] OK Set APPKEY [<- 11:52:36.821] AT+APPKEY=11223344556677889900112233445566 [-> 11:52:36.895] OK After setting the join mode, DevEui, AppEui and other parameters, user need Set Rtc and save the parameters.
