2. Connect LHT65N-E5 to IoT Server
2.1 How does LHT65N-E5 work?
LHT65N-E5 is configured as LoRaWAN OTAA Class A sensor by default. Each LHT65N-E5 is shipped with a worldwide unique set of OTAA keys. To use LHT65N-E5 in a
LoRaWAN network, first, we need to put the OTAA keys in LoRaWAN Network Server and then activate LHT65N-E5.
If LHT65N-E5 is within the coverage of this LoRaWAN network. LHT65N-E5 can join the LoRaWAN network automatically. After successfully joining, LHT65N-E5 will start
to measure environment temperature, humidity & illumination, and start to transmit sensor data to the LoRaWAN server. The default period for each uplink is 20 minutes.
2.2 How to Activate LHT65N-E5?
The LHT65N-E5 has two working modes:
Deep Sleep Mode: LHT65N-E5 doesn't have any LoRaWAN activation. This mode is used for storage and shipping to save battery life.
Working Mode: In this mode, LHT65N-E5 works as LoRaWAN Sensor mode to Join LoRaWAN network and send out the sensor data to the server. Between
each sampling/tx/rx periodically, LHT65N-E5 will be in STOP mode (IDLE mode), in STOP mode, LHT65N-E5 has the same power consumption as Deep Sleep
mode.
The LHT65N-E5 is set in deep sleep mode by default; The ACT button on the front is to switch to different modes:
Behavior on ACT Function Action
Pressing ACT between
1s < time < 3s

If LHT65N is already Joined to
rhe LoRaWAN network, LHT65N
will send an uplink packet, if
LHT65N has external sensor
connected,Blue led will blink
once. If LHT65N has not external
sensor, Red led will blink once.
Pressing ACT for more
than 3s

2.3 Example to join LoRaWAN network
This section shows an example of how to join the TTN V3 LoRaWAN IoT server. Use with other LoRaWAN IoT servers is of a similar procedure.
Assume the LPS8v2 is already set to connect to TTN V3 network (https://eu1.cloud.thethings.network) , So it provides network coverage for LHT65N-E5. Next we need
add the LHT65N-E5 device in TTN V3:
2.3.1 Step 1: Create Device n TTN
Create a device in TTN V3 with the OTAA keys from LHT65N-E5.
Each LHT65N-E5 is shipped with a sticker with its device EUI, APP Key and APP EUI as below:
User can enter these keys in the LoRaWAN Server portal. Below is TTN V3 screenshot:

2.6 Datalog Feature
Datalog Feature is to ensure IoT Server can get all sampling data from Sensor even if the LoRaWAN network is down. For each sampling, LHT65N-E5 will store the
reading for future retrieving purposes. There are two ways for IoT servers to get datalog from LHT65N-E5.
2.6.1 Ways to get datalog via LoRaWAN
There are two methods:
Method 1: IoT Server sends a downlink LoRaWAN command to poll the value for specified time range.
Method 2: Set PNACKMD=1, LHT65N-E5 will wait for ACK for every uplink, when there is no LoRaWAN network, LHT65N-E5 will mark these records with non-ack
messages and store the sensor data, and it will send all messages (10s interval) after the network recovery.
Note for method 2:
a) LHT65N-E5 will do an ACK check for data records sending to make sure every data arrive server.
b) LHT65N-E5 will send data in CONFIRMED Mode when PNACKMD=1, but LHT65N-E5 won't re-transmit the packet if it doesn't get ACK, it will just mark it as a
NONE-ACK message. In a future uplink if LHT65N-E5 gets a ACK, LHT65N-E5 will consider there is a network connection and resend all NONE-ACK Message.
Below is the typical case for the auto-update datalog feature (Set PNACKMD=1)

2.6.2 Unix TimeStamp
LHT65N-E5 uses Unix TimeStamp format based on
User can get this time from link: https://www.epochconverter.com/ (https://www.epochconverter.com/) :
Below is the converter example
So, we can use AT+TIMESTAMP=1611889405 or downlink 3060137afd00 to set the current time 2021 – Jan -- 29 Friday 03:03:25
2.6.3 Set Device Time
There are two ways to set device's time:
1. Through LoRaWAN MAC Command (Default settings)
User need to set SYNCMOD=1 to enable sync time via MAC command.
Once LHT65N-E5 Joined LoRaWAN network, it will send the MAC command (DeviceTimeReq) and the server will reply with (DeviceTimeAns) to send the current time to
LHT65N-E5. If LHT65N-E5 fails to get the time from the server, LHT65N-E5 will use the internal time and wait for next time request (AT+SYNCTDC to set the time reques
period, default is 10 days).
Note: LoRaWAN Server need to support LoRaWAN v1.0.3(MAC v1.0.3) or higher to support this MAC command feature, Chirpstack,TTN V3 v3 and loriot
support but TTN V3 v2 doesn't support. If server doesn't support this command, it will through away uplink packet with this command, so user will lose the
packet with time request for TTN V3 v2 if SYNCMOD=1.
2. Manually Set Time
User needs to set SYNCMOD=0 to manual time, otherwise, the user set time will be overwritten by the time set by the server.
2.6.4 Poll sensor value
User can poll sensor value based on timestamps from the server. Below is the downlink command.

Poll Message Flag: 1: This message is a poll message reply.
Poll Message Flag is set to 1.
Each data entry is 11 bytes, to save airtime and battery, devices will send max bytes according to the current DR and Frequency bands.
For example, in US915 band, the max payload for different DR is:
a) DR0: max is 11 bytes so one entry of data
b) DR1: max is 53 bytes so devices will upload 4 entries of data (total 44 bytes)
c) DR2: total payload includes 11 entries of data
d) DR3: total payload includes 22 entries of data.
If devise doesn't have any data in the polling time. Device will uplink 11 bytes of 0
Example:
If LHT65N-E5 has below data inside Flash:
If user sends below downlink command: 3160065F9760066DA705
Where : Start time: 60065F97 = time 21/1/19 04:27:03
Stop time: 60066DA7= time 21/1/19 05:27:03
LHT65N-E5 will uplink this payload.

2.7 Alarm Mode
when the device is in alarm mode, it checks the built-in sensor temperature for a short time. if the temperature exceeds the preconfigured range, it sends an uplink
immediately.
Note: alarm mode adds a little power consumption, and we recommend extending the normal read time when this feature is enabled.
2.7.1 ALARM MODE
AT+WMOD=1: Enable/disable alarm mode. (0: Disabled, 1: Enabled Temperature Alarm for onboard temperature sensor)
