LoRaWAN Test.
By pressing the button 4 for 3 seconds the device can send a device status uplink to the joined LoRaWAN network.
Note: The third line of characters on the screen represents the sending status.
means : The load is an inductive load , means : The load is a capacitive load.
means: joined LoRaWAN gateway.
means: The meter is being join to the LoRaWAN gateway.
means: The meter has not been joined to the gateway and is waiting to be join. The bottom characters represents the wait time.
means: No send operation is performed.
means: Sending operation is being performed.
means: Send successfully.
means: Send failure.
