2. Operation Mode

2.1 How to activate LHT65?

The LHT65 has two working modes:

 Deep Sleep Mode: LHT-65 doesn’t have any LoRaWAN activate. This mode is used for
storage and shipping to save battery life.
 Working Mode: In this mode, LHT65 will works as LoRaWAN Sensor mode to Join LoRaWAN
network and send out the sensor data to server. Between each sampling/tx/rx periodically,
LHT65 will be in STOP mode (IDLE mode), in STOP mode, device has the same power
consumption as Deep Sleep mode.

The LHT65 is set in deep sleep mode by default; The ACT button on the bottom of device is used
to switch to different modes:
Behavior on ACT Function Action
Pressing ACT Test uplink If LHT65 is already Joined to LoRaWAN network, LHT65
between 1s < time status will send an uplink packet, if LHT65 has external sensor
< 3s connected, blue led will blink once. If LHT65 has not
external sensor, red led will blink once.
Pressing ACT for Active Device green led will fast blink 5 times, device will enter working
more than 3s mode and start to JOIN LoRaWAN network. green led will
solid turn on for 5 seconds after joined in network.
Fast press ACT 5 Deactivate red led will solid on for 5 seconds. Means LHT65 are in
times. Device Deep Sleep Mode.

2.2 How it works?

The LHT65 is configured as LoRaWAN OTAA Class A mode by default. Each LHT65 is shipped with
a worldwide unique set of OTAA and ABP keys. To use LHT65 in a LoRaWAN network, user needs
to input the OTAA or ABP keys in the network server. So LHT65 can join the LoRaWAN network
and start to transmit sensor data. The default period for each uplink is 20 minutes.

In case user can’t set the OTAA keys in the network server and has to use the existing keys from
server. User can use AT Command to set the keys in LHT65.

2.3 Example to join LoRaWAN network

This section shows an example for how to join the TTN LoRaWAN IoT server. Use with other
LoRaWAN IoT server is of similar procedure.

 www.dragino.com

Assume the LG308 is already set to connect to TTN network . We need to add the LHT65 device in
TTN:

Step 1: Create a device in TTN with the OTAA keys from LHT65.
Each LHT65 is shipped with a sticker with the default device EUI as below:

User can enter these keys in the LoRaWAN Server portal. Below is TTN screen shot:
Add APP EUI in the application.

Add APP KEY and DEV EUI

Step 2: Use ACT button to activate LHT65 and it will auto join to the TTN network. After join
success, it will start to upload sensor data to TTN and user can see in the panel.

2.4 Uplink Payload

The uplink payload includes totally 11 bytes. Uplink packets use FPORT=2 and every 20 minutes
send one uplink by default.
After each uplink, the BLUE LED will blink once.

Size(bytes) 2 2 2 1 4
Value BAT Built-In Built-in Ext # Ext value

2.7 Read stored sensor data

LHT65 provides 3200 set local data storage feature, user can use AT Commands to retrieve these
data for further analyze.

By default, LHT65 stores one set of data every 5 minutes. LHT65 has reversed 400 sectors for
storage; each sector can store 8 sets data so total 3200 sets of data can be stored. LHT65 use
circle storage method, means the storage position reach the 400th sector, it will go back and erase
the 1st sector and store from this position.

Below are the AT Commands used to operate these data:

AT+PDTA=start,stop: Print the sector from start to stop.. Example:
AT+PDTA=1,1 will print the first sector (8 set of data)

Explain of the format:

 8019500 is the flash address.
 19/6/3 16:47 is the time
 1 after time means the external sensor type.
 2987 : battery voltage
 sht_temp and sht_hum are the built in sensor temperature and humidity.

LHT65 Temperature & Humidity sensor 26 / 47

 www.dragino.com
 ds_temp is the external sensor value.

AT+PLDTA: will print the most recent few sets of data. Example:
AT+PLDTA=10 will print the latest 10 sets data

AT+CLRDTA: Clear the storage, record position back to 1st.

AT+RTP: Set record time period, default value 5 minute (AT+RTP=5). If RTP is set to 0, LHT65 will
disable the record feature ( RTP can be set by downlink command)
AT+DATE=19 05 30 16 21 58 set current time to 2019-5-30 16:21:58，AT+DATE=? to check the
current time. System time error is ±2 min per month. This time can be configure via downlink
command.

2.8 Alarm Mode

Alarm mode feature is added since firmware v1.5. When device is in Alarm mode, it will check
the built-in sensor temperature in a short interval. If the temperature exceeds the pre-configure
range, it will send an uplink immediately.

Note: Alarm mode will increase a little big the power consumption, we recommend extending
the normal reading time when enable this feature.

AT Commands for Alarm mode:

AT+WMOD=1: Enable/Disable Alarm Mode. (0:Disable, 1: Enable)
AT+CITEMP=1: The interval to check temperature for Alarm. (Unit: minute)

5. FAQ

5.1 How to upgrade the firmware?

The LHT65 is shipped with a program cable, which is used to upload image to LHT65 for:
 Support new features
 For bug fix
 Change LoRaWAN bands.

Video Instruction is here: https://youtu.be/0xpSWTCuDGQ

The latest firmware and changelog can be found at below link:

http://www.dragino.com/downloads/index.php?dir=LHT65/Firmware/

Below shows the hardware connection for how to upload an image to the LHT65:
Note:
1) There are different version ST-Link v2. The white one as below is the most stable and
recommended one.
2) The white version ST-Link v2 such as below photo has different hardware version. The original
one doesn’t have 3.3v on pin 1/2 and the clone one has 3.3v on pin 1/2. User has to short pin19
(VDD 3.3v) and pin 1/2 (TVCC) for the original one so pin 1/2 has 3.3v power. Otherwise, the
original one will have problem to upload firmware to LHT65.

5.2 How to change the LoRa Frequency Bands/Region?

User can follow the introduction for how to upgrade image. When download the images, choose
the required image file for download.

5.3 How to set up LHT65 to work with Single Channel Gateway such as LG01/LG02?

In this case, users need to set LHT65 to work in ABP mode & transmit in only one frequency.
Assume we have a LG02 working in the frequency 868400000 now, below is the step.
Note: EU868 firmware can’t set to Single Frequency, to use single frequency in EU, user can first
upgrade the firmware to IN865 and set it to work in Single Frequency.

Step1: Log in TTN, Create an ABP device in the application and input the network session key
(NETSKEY), app session key (APPSKEY) from the device.

Note: user just need to make sure above three keys match, User can change either in TTN or Device to make then
match. In TTN, NETSKEY and APPSKEY can be configured by user in setting page, but Device Addr is generated by
TTN.

Step2: Run AT Command to make LHT65 work in Single frequency & ABP mode. Below is the AT
commands:
123456 Enter Password to have AT access.
AT+FDR Reset Parameters to Factory Default, Keys Reserve
123456 Enter Password to have AT access.
AT+NJM=0 Set to ABP mode
AT+ADR=0 Set the Adaptive Data Rate Off
AT+DR=5 Set Data Rate (Set AT+DR=3 for 915 band)
AT+TDC=60000 Set transmit interval to 60 seconds

6. Trouble Shooting

6.1 AT Command input doesn’t work

In the case if user can see the console output but can’t type input to the device. Please check
if you already include the <ENTER> while sending out the command. Some serial tool doesn’t
send <ENTER> after press the send key, user need to add <ENTER> in their string.

6.2 Why the temperature shows 327.67℃?

If the external sensor is 0x01, and there is no DS18B20 connected. The temperature will be
set to 7FFF which is 327.67℃. In this case, please check the connection between the
DS18B20 and the LHT65. User need to push the DS18B20 Audio jack hard to make the
connection firmly. User will feel a click sound if connection is good.

6.3 Device no responses after Interrupt during upload or configure?

Possible the LHT65 are in program mode, try to short the NRST pin to GND to make it reset.
