Description

When first using Milesight LoRaWAN sensors, it's suggested to change the frequency and channels which match your gateway and reduce the possibilities of package loss and network join failure. 

For -868M model, default frequency is EU868 and supports change to IN865/RU864;

For -915M model, default frequency is AU915 and supports change to US915/AS923/KR920.


Requirement

  • Milesight LoRaWAN Sensors/Controllers
  • Toolbox (Mobile APP or Windows Software)


Configuration

1. Power the sensor via Toolbox, power button or removing the battery insulating sheet.

2. Use Toolbox to change the LoRaWAN frequency or channels.

Method 1: Open Toolbox APP and go to Setting -> LoRaWAN Settings to change the Supported Frequency and Channels. 

Method 2: Open the Toolbox software on PC and go to LoRaWAN Settings -> Channel change the Supported Frequency and Channels. 


Note: 

1) If frequency is one of AU915/US915, you can enter the index of the channel that you want to enable in the input box, making them separated by commas.

Examples:

1, 40: Enabling Channel 1 and Channel 40

1-40: Enabling Channel 1 to Channel 40

1-40, 60: Enabling Channel 1 to Channel 40 and Channel 60

All: Enabling all channels

Null: Indicates that all channels are disabled


2) If you also use Milesight gateways and keep default AU915/US915 frequency settings, please change the index to 8-15. For more details about Milesight gateway default frequency settings, please refer to article How to Change LoRaWAN Frequency Plan in Milesight Gateway.
