Revision 03 - 07 September 2020

 

 

INITIAL STARTUP 

Vega TL-11 is constantly ON, but can operate in a special "Storage" mode, designed for 

storage and transportation. The device does not regularly transmit data to the network in this 
mode. Before use switch the device from the “Storage” mode by the button pressing. 

The temperature logger  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 device  will continue to accumulate data and will attempt to 
connect to the network every 6 hours. 

To transfer the device from the "Active" mode to the "Storage" mode, you can use the 

long press of the start button (more than 5 seconds). 

 

Press the start 

button located on 

the board
