Class C
Allows the device to receive downlink packets from the network server without issuing an uplink first. Before the
device can receive packets, it must first join the network via OTA or ABP. The device then listens for packets when
idle, which leads to higher current consumption.
Configuration
Join via OTA or ABP as normal.
AT+DC=C
AT&W
AT+SD
Soon after being schedule to the network server, the device receives packets. If the network server requests an
ACK, the device automatically sends an empty packet, only when the device is in serial data mode.
Network Server Configuration
After a device has joined via OTA or ABP, you can change from the default Class A setting. In the case of ABP join,
the class can be set when you add the device.
lora-query -u <NODE-ADDR> class C
