CODECS - Configuration of WATTECO sensors
Use of codecs to decode the payload
WATTECO provides a CODEC to decode the frames of its LoRaWAN sensors in standard mode and others under development for Batch mode in a Python script, also available in GO and C for Batch frames decoding.
You will find this information at the following link: http://support.watteco.com/downloads/
Our codec implementations can be used as a basis for integration into an information system. They are available in Python (ZCL Like) or Javascript (batches).

Utility programs for sensor configuration
Configuration of sensors on the LoRaWAN® network
WATTECO sensors are supplied ready to use with a default factory configuration suitable for identified use cases.
However, the needs related to data processing and analysis sometimes require sensors to have a specific configuration.
Using the the downlink of the LoRaWAN® network, you can configure your WATTECO sensors from a remote site and to carry out operations on each sensor.
The Sensor Frame Encoder tool, available online or downloaded, allows you to generate configuration frames for WATTECO sensors in a simplified way. The steps for the selection of sensor type, parameters, frame format, are provided at the following link: http://support.watteco.com/codec-online/
Benefits of remote configuration:
- Cost optimisation: no travel on site required to modify a configuration.
- Time saving: no intervention on the sensor.
- Security and reliability of the equipment: no actual entry point on the sensor, such as a USB port.
