# Other LoRaWAN networks (public or private)

TX PULSE ATEX: other LoRaWAN networks (public or private)

Your TX PULSE ATEX is compatible with networks **public LoRaWAN** and **private**. To make full use of it, here are the elements you will need.

## Register the sensor

### Activation

Your transmitter is activated via Over-The-Air (**OTAA**) only thanks to its three identification keys.

<table data-header-hidden><thead><tr><th width="142.73046875">Information</th><th>Description</th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td><strong>DevEUI</strong></td><td>Unique identifier, 64 bits (8 bytes / 16 hexadecimal characters). e.g.: <code>00:18:B2:00:00:00:00:01</code></td></tr><tr><td><strong>AppEUI</strong></td><td>Global identifier designating the entity responsible for activation, 64 bits (8 bytes / 16 hexadecimal characters). e.g.: <code>70:B3:D5:7E:D0:00:AF:12</code></td></tr><tr><td><strong>AppKey</strong></td><td>Symmetric encryption key, 128 bits (16 bytes / 32 hexadecimal characters). e.g.: <code>2B7E151628AED2A6ABF7158809CF4F3C</code></td></tr></tbody></table>

{% hint style="info" %}

#### Where can I find the keys?

The LoRaWAN keys for Enless sensors are available:

* By scanning the **QR code** attached to the sensor
* On **the back label** of the sensor
* On **request** from our service department **Administration** **from the** **Sales** (<adv@enless.fr>)
  {% endhint %}

### Decoding

Enless Wireless provides various **codecs** to decode the *uplinks* of your transmitter as well as generate *downlinks* to send to it.

## Check that your sensor is indeed in LoRaWAN mode

LoRaWAN mode is enabled by a jumper located on the main board. To activate this mode, the jumper must be in **position** **open** (not connecting the two pins), as shown opposite.

{% hint style="info" icon="circle-info" %}
The **switching** of the switch jumper is not **taken into account** until the product is **powered off**. Make sure your product is completely powered off before setting the jumper.
{% endhint %}
{% endcolumn %}
{% endcolumns %}

## Getting started

Only a few steps remain to get the TX PULSE ATEX up and running **:**

{% stepper %}
{% step %}

### Power supply

Power the TX PULSE ATEX by plugging in the battery Molex connector.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Activation

The TX PULSE ATEX will proceed with its activation on the LoRaWAN network; the status LED will flash and then, for 30 seconds, take on one of the following three colors:

* <mark style="color:$success;">**Green**</mark> : The sensor is activated.
* <mark style="color:$warning;">**Orange**</mark> : The sensor is activated but the RSSI is weak, so there is a risk of LoRa frame loss.
* <mark style="color:$danger;">**Red**</mark> : The sensor is not activated. Several possible reasons : \
  1\. The switch was not in the LoRaWAN position at the time of activation\
  2\. The DevEUI, AppEUI and AppKey keys were not entered correctly\
  3\. The LoRaWAN network does not adequately cover the area

{% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Operation

After activation, the LED flashes let you monitor the sensor status:

<table data-header-hidden><thead><tr><th width="134.90625"></th><th></th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td><mark style="color:$success;"><strong>Green</strong></mark></td><td>Flash every minute</td></tr><tr><td><mark style="color:$warning;"><strong>Orange</strong></mark></td><td>Flash with each frame transmission<br>Stays solid in case of low battery</td></tr><tr><td><mark style="color:$danger;"><strong>Red</strong></mark></td><td>Flash every 1 min in case of alarm</td></tr></tbody></table>
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Installation

Once the TX PULSE ATEX has been properly activated on the network, all that's left is to install it on the wall:

* By fixing it to the wall (screws and wall plugs not provided).
* By mounting it on the DIN rail (mounting accessory not provided)
  {% endstep %}
  {% endstepper %}

## Network connectivity management

TX sensors include advanced connectivity management mechanisms to ensure reliable and optimized communications on the LoRaWAN network.

**Join Requests (Activation procedure)**

* **Initialization** : Sensors automatically initiate a *Join* as soon as they are powered on.
* **Link check** : In normal operation, the sensor sends a check request (LinkCheckReq) every 24 hours.
* **Link maintenance** : To confirm that the session is valid, the sensor must receive LinkCheckAck responses from the network.
* **Automatic reactivation** : In case of prolonged failure (if 6 *LinkCheckReq* consecutive requests go unanswered), the sensor considers the session lost and initiates a new *Join*.

**ADR (Adaptive Data Rate)**

* **Initial configuration** : During the first *Join*, the transmitter uses SF12 and BW125 parameters by default.
* **Dynamic optimization** : The sensor keeps these maximum-robustness parameters as long as it does not receive a LinkADRReq command from the network server (via the gateway) instructing it to adapt its *Spreading Factor* to optimize power consumption and bandwidth.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://enless.gitbook.io/centre-aide/guides-installation/documentation-en/sensors/editor-13/activation-procedure/other-lorawan-networks-public-or-private.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
