This version adds some important features: ⢠New âSimplified Screenâ that enables to check quickly and easily the quality of the onsite network. This screen is now the main screen of the FTD. ⢠Add the radio link quality of the uplinks sent to the network. ⢠Add the possibility to download the last 100 measures of the Field Test Device directly on a computer or a smartphone through the IoT Configurator or AT commands. ⢠Restore the possibility to deactivate the ADR, to fix the SF and choose a value for the power transmission ⢠Add the possibility to activate an âIntegrated antennaâ mode that emulates the behavior of a device with a PCB antenna without deactivating the ADR. ⢠New screen to see the ongoing configuration of the device (see after how to access it).
(8123AAG)
⢠New screen that displays the network quality with a 4 levels bar graph. This screen should help users that begin with LoRaWAN network and do not really know what is behind RSSI/SNR/SF values ⢠Based on Link margin, FTD displays now the uplink quality and its SNR value. Previously only downlink quality was displayed. ⢠New screen that displays main FTD settings (ADR, DUTYCYCLE, SF AUTO/MANUAL, TX POWER AUTO/MANUAL) by pressing for 2 seconds on the âscreenâ button. ⢠Possibility to deactivate main button by pressing 2 seconds on both buttons. In that case, the accelerometer is locked too and the FTD will send periodically uplinks based on register S380 value. ⢠New log mechanism: up to 100 measures may be stored in FTD. The user can export these measures with the IoT configurator. Measures are timestamped and localized (if GPS is ON). ⢠GPS screen is now displayed only if GPS is activated. ⢠Downlink payload screen has been removed. ⢠New way to inform that a downlink has not been received. In that case â---â are displayed. ⢠Various minor bugfixes
⢠S360 (new) determines if accelerometer is activated or not (by default: off) ⢠S201 (new) determines Spreading Factor value to use when ADR is OFF ⢠S205 (new) determines the TX power to apply on uplink sending when ADR is OFF ⢠S231 (new) activates the âIntegrated antennaâ mode that is compatible with ADR mechanism. In that case downlink quality is not displayed. This register is OFF by default. ⢠S382: confirmed mode is now OFF by default.
