LoRaWAN Frame Description (Payloads)

The Squid Pro transmits its data in a raw format over various LoRaWAN public and private networks. The section below shows you how to decode the frames (payloads) sent by the Squid Pro.

Periodic Frames

Periodic frames contain the data measured by the Squid Pro.

Example of a transmitted periodic frame (HEX format):

00 26 40 C3 860400 040000 28E866 3C6692 D29766 9FB967 040000 040000 DF0C01 040000 050000 32A400

Tip – Rollover Management

To facilitate the management of energy measurement rollovers, the most significant bit of these measurements is used to indicate if a rollover has already occurred. It is never reset to 0. Therefore, during a rollover, the measurement will transition from 0xFFFFFF to 0x800000.

Tip – LoRaWAN Payload Decoding

To facilitate the integration of products communicating via the LoRaWAN network, Ewattch has developed a payload decoder available at this address: https://ewattch-documentation.com/?page_id=2215.
