Radio communication

The AMBIANCE periodically send its sensor measurements via a  LoRaWAN™ radio link.

In order to configure the AMBIANCE sensor for a LoRaWAN™ network, the unique encrypted identification code indicated on each product (DevEUI) is required.

As well as the following two codes AppEUI and AppKey provided with your order.

 

Network connection process
  • Our products try to connect to the network when they start
  • If it does not work, they will retry every 24 hours until it works.
Periodique network reconnection
  • Our products restart a network connection procedure every 7 days.
    These reconnections improve security.
    Indeed, reconnection to the network renews the encryption keys.
