The activation of radio devices as part of the installation and commissioning is, among other things, the start of communication. Depending on the setting, the device tries to connect to the server via a JOIN. Since the normal transmission intervals are quite long, waiting for a successful connection result in the real cultivation and activation process is impractical. For this reason, all of our LoRa devices have a commissioning mode. All protocols are sent in a greatly reduced interval of 2 minutes. After 255 protocols, the operating interval is automatically switched over. The activation of the EHCA or the PULS module is easily possible by taking the devices out of their storage and transport mode by pressing and holding the button. With the water meter that has no button, this is only possible via a command via the optical interface. Automatic activation after detection of a certain number of water passing through can also be used as a kind of emergency activation. This usually does not happen at the time of installation and the fitter can no longer exert any influence on site. All devices can be activated via the optical interface with an activation command. All you need is an ANDROID mobile phone with an OTG-capable USB interface and a standard optical head in connection with the ANDROID activation tool.
