Revision 10 - 27 May 2019
INITIAL STARTUP
The M-BUS-1 converter can be powered from either an external power source or built-
in battery. To operate from the built-in battery, you must connect the battery connector to the
power connector on the board.
The converter supports two activation methods in the LoRaWAN network - ABP and
OTAA.
Select one of the methods using “
Vega LoRaWAN Configurator
”
application (See part 4).
1. ABP. After pressing the start button, the device immediately starts working in the
"Active" mode.
2. OTAA. After pressing the start button, the device makes three attempts to connect to
the network within the set frequency plan. After the activation in the LoRaWAN network is
confirmed, the device sends a signal (LED flashing for 5 seconds) and switches to the "Active"
mode. If all attempts fail, the converter will continue to accumulate data and will attempt to
connect to the network every 6 hours.
