lorawan classes

LoRaWAN Class
Select the appropriate LoRaWAN Class based on your device’s power source and application needs:

  • Class A
    Recommended for battery-powered devices. It offers the lowest power consumption and is suitable for sensors that transmit data occasionally.

  • Class C
    Designed for mains-powered devices. It keeps the receiver always on, allowing near-instant downlink communication from the server.

Choosing the correct class helps optimize battery life and network responsiveness based on your deployment.

note

Controller are available in the Class C mode only

  • Adaptive Data Rate (ADR)

    Toggle ON to enable ADR, allowing the device to automatically adjust transmission settings for optimal power efficiency and network performance.s

  • Custom Spreading Factor (SF)

    • Toggle OFF to manually configure the Spreading Factor.
    • Use the “+” & “–” buttons to adjust the SF based on your desired range vs. data rate trade-off.
note

Lower SF = faster data, shorter range & Higher SF = slower data, longer range

  • Confirmed Messages
    Toggle ON to enable Confirmed Messages, where each uplink requires an acknowledgment from the server.

  • Airtime Impact
    While this improves delivery reliability, it may lead to higher power consumption and longer airtime, especially in high-frequency transmissions.
