HUR uses Semtech’s LoRa proprietary spread spectrum modulation technique. This modulation, in contrast to conventional modulation techniques, permits an increase in link budget and increased immunity to in-band interference. It achieves sensitivities 8 dB better than FSK modulation.
LoRa also provides significant advantages in both blocking and selectivity, solving the traditional design compromise between range, interference immunity and energy consumption.
Tx Power Level EIGRP is calculated as following:
Max. EIRP = MIN (Max. allowed EIRP, Max. RF Power + RF Gain + 2.15dB)
If ABP is selected, following settings will be available:

"Minimum Send Interval for a Parsed Data (in seconds)": Minimum value to send meter data to MQTT Server. This time may be longer due to meter quantity in reading queue.
"Data Format": Options for how data is shared by HUR with MQTT server. There are 2 options:
Parsed Data as Objects
Parsed Data as Modbus Frame
When selected as "Parsed Data as Objects", HUR will share data as follows
Device Name, Device Model, NTP Time and Data itself in pairs as IO number and its value.
Device Model Can be:
"Analog Out"
"Digital Out"
"Analog In"
"Digital In"
Here is an example for "Digital Out"
"IO1" is the first one and its value is shown as "1"
Which means digital out value for 1st port is "1" or "ON".
Next values can be seen in same manner.
Here is an example for "Digital In"
"IO1" is the first one and its value is shown as "1"
Which means digital out value for 1st port is "1" or "ON".
Next values can be seen in same manner.
Here is an example for "Analog Out"
"IO1" is the first one and its value is shown as "1F4"
Which means analog out value for 1st port is "500" in decimal within a range of 0-1000. Which means port 1 value is "12.0mA".
Next values can be seen in same manner.
Here is an example for "Analog In"
"IO1" is the first one and its value is shown as "7F3C"
Which means analog out value for 1st port is "32572" in decimal within a range of 0-65535. Which means port 1 value is "10.0mA".
Next values can be seen in same manner.
When selected as "Parsed Data as Modbus Frame", HUR will share data as follows
Device Name, Device Model, NTP Time and Data itself in hexadecimal format just like a Modbus query response. First byte will show data bytes count and rest is the data itself. Data will be in similar format with how the device responds when read via Modbus commands.
Here is an example for "Digital Out"
01 in beginning is hexadecimal equivalent for 1 byte data count
Next is the value of 8 ports which is "C3"
Binary equivalent of hec C3 is "11000011"
This means
Port 1 value is "1"
Port 2 value is "1"
Port 3 value is "0"
Port 4 value is "0"
Port 5 value is "0"
Port 6 value is "0"
Port 7 value is "1"
Port 8 value is "1"
The 1st bit is port 1 value and 8th bit is port 8 value.
Here is an example for "Digital In"
01 in beginning is hexadecimal equivalent for 1 byte data count
Next is the value of 8 ports which is "01"
Binary equivalent of hec C3 is "00000001"
This means
Port 1 value is "1"
Port 2 value is "0"
Port 3 value is "0"
Port 4 value is "0"
Port 5 value is "0"
Port 6 value is "0"
Port 7 value is "0"
Port 8 value is "0"
The 1st bit is port 1 value and 8th bit is port 8 value.
Here is an example for "Analog Out"
0A in beginning is hexadecimal equivalent for 10 bytes data count. Each value is 2 bytes, for 5 ports Analog out device, there are 10 bytes.
Next 2 bytes are the value of port 1 which is "01F4"
That means "500" in decimal and that is equal to "12.0mA" in a range of 0-1000.
Next values can be seen in same manner.
Here is an example for "Analog In"
10 in beginning is hexadecimal equivalent for 10 bytes data count. Each value is 2 bytes, for 8 ports Analog in device, there are 16 bytes.
Next 2 bytes are the value of port 1 which is "7FBE"
That means "32702" in decimal and that is equal to "9.98mA" in range 0-65535.
Next values can be seen in same manner.
NOTE: Analog Out and Digital Out models can also be controlled via MQTT server.
Format will be as follows:
IO11:500
Letters 'I' and 'O', then Slot number '1' (always 1 for single Slot devices and can be 1-2-3-4 for multi slot device), then ':' and then the value which is a value between range 0-1000 for Analog output version and 0 or 1 for Digital out version. User can write multiple commands and those must be seperated with new line '\n' or 0x0D in hexadecimal format.
Here is screenshot for an example:
When all settings are done click "Save Configuration".
Go back to "https://tago.io/" panel and click "Live Inspector" for the HUR and click "Play button".
Data will be shown in real time.
User has to parse and use that parsed data for visualization (for graphs for example) for their application. That is beyond scope of HUR usage.
NOTE: HUR Multi models send values to MQTT server for all slots. HUR single slot versions can also send values for 1 slot.
HUR single slot or multi slot Output slots can be managed from MQTT server in same manner.
HUR Series Modbus TCP Remote I/O Devices with LoRaWAN Connectivity can send I/O data for all available slots to LoRaWAN Server. Simultaneously field devices or applications can get meter data mapped to Modbus registers via Modbus TCP (or Modbus RTU) and all meter data can also be sent to MQTT Server.
We used The "Things Network" as LoRaWAN Server in this application.
Enter configuration details as explained in Chapter 9 "Modbus Communication Example" and make sure all data is read correctly.
Then go to "LoRa Settings" menu.
Next step will be configuring the settings for LoRaWAN server.
