1. Introduction
1.1 What is LoRaWAN Distance Detection Sensor
The Dragino LDDS75 is a LoRaWAN Distance Detection Sensor for Internet of Things solution. It is used to measure the distance between the sensor and a flat object. The distance detection sensor is a module that uses ultrasonic sensing technology for distance measurement, and temperature compensation is performed internally to improve the reliability of data. The LDDS75 can be applied to scenarios such as horizontal distance measurement, liquid level measurement, parking management system, object proximity and presence detection, intelligent trash can management system, robot obstacle avoidance, automatic control, sewer, bottom water level monitoring, etc.
It detects the distance between the measured object and the sensor, and uploads the value via wireless to LoRaWAN IoT Server.
The LoRa wireless technology used in LDDS75 allows device to send data and reach extremely long ranges at low data-rates. It provides ultra-long range spread spectrum communication and high interference immunity whilst minimizing current consumption.
LDDS75 is powered by 4000mA or 8500mAh Li-SOCI2 battery; It is designed for long term use up to 10 years*.
Each LDDS75 pre-loads with a set of unique keys for LoRaWAN registrations, register these keys to local LoRaWAN server and it will auto connect if there is network coverage, after power on.
*Actually lifetime depends on network coverage and uplink interval and other factors

2. Configure LDDS75 to connect to LoRaWAN network
2.1 How it works
The LDDS75 is configured as LoRaWAN OTAA Class A mode by default. It has OTAA keys to join LoRaWAN network. To connect a LoRaWAN network, you need to input the OTAA keys in the LoRaWAN IoT server and power on the LDDS75. If there is coverage of the LoRaWAN network, it will automatically join the network via OTAA and start to send the sensor value
In case you can’t set the OTAA keys in the LoRaWAN OTAA server, and you have to use the keys from the server, you can use AT Commands to set the keys in the LDDS75.

2.2 Quick guide to connect to LoRaWAN server (OTAA)
Following is an example for how to join the TTN V3 LoRaWAN Network. Below is the network structure; we use the LG308 as a LoRaWAN gateway in this example.
The LG308 is already set to connected to TTN V3 network , so what we need to now is configure the TTN V3 server.
Step 1: Create a device in TTN V3 with the OTAA keys from LDDS75. Each LDDS75 is shipped with a sticker with the default device keys, user can find this sticker in the box. it looks like below.
For OTAA registration, we need to set APP EUI/ APP KEY/ DEV EUI. Some server might no need to set APP EUI.
Enter these keys in the LoRaWAN Server portal. Below is TTN V3 screen shot:
Add APP EUI in the application

Step 2: Power on LDDS75
Put a Jumper on JP2 to power on the device. ( The switch must be set in FLASH position).
Step 3: The LDDS75 will auto join to the TTN V3 network. After join success, it will start to upload messages to TTN V3 and you can see the messages in the panel.

2.3 Uplink Payload
LDDS75 will uplink payload via LoRaWAN with below payload format:
Uplink payload includes in total 4 bytes. Payload for firmware version v1.1.4. . Before v1.1.3, there is on two fields: BAT and Distance
2.3.1 Battery Info
Check the battery voltage for LDDS75. Ex1: 0x0B45 = 2885mV Ex2: 0x0B49 = 2889mV
2.3.2 Distance
Get the distance. Flat object range 280mm - 7500mm. For example, if the data you get from the register is 0x0B 0x05, the distance between the sensor and the measured object is
0B05(H) = 2821 (D) = 2821 mm.
If the sensor value is 0x0000, it means system doesnt detect ultrasonic sensor. If the sensor value lower than 0x0118 (280mm), the sensor value will be invalid. Since
v1.1.4, all value lower than 280mm will be set to 0x0014(20mm) which means the value is invalid.
2.3.3 Interrupt Pin
This data field shows if this packet is generated by interrupt or not. Click here for the hardware and software set up.
Example:
0x00: Normal uplink packet. 0x01: Interrupt Uplink Packet.

2.3.4 DS18B20 Temperature sensor
This is optional, user can connect external DS18B20 sensor to the +3.3v, 1-wire and GND pin . and this field will report temperature.
Example: If payload is: 0105H: (0105 & FC00 == 0), temp = 0105H /10 = 26.1 degree If payload is: FF3FH : (FF3F & FC00 == 1) , temp = (FF3FH - 65536)/10 = -19.3 degrees.
2.3.5 Sensor Flag
0x01: Detect Ultrasonic Sensor 0x00: No Ultrasonic Sensor
2.3.6 Decode payload in The Things Network
While using TTN V3 network, you can add the payload format to decode the payload.
The payload decoder function for TTN V3 is here: LDDS75 TTN V3 Payload Decoder:
http://www.dragino.com/downloads/index.php?dir=LoRa_End_Node/LDDS75/Payload_Dec oder/
2.4 Uplink Interval
The LDDS75 by default uplink the sensor data every 20 minutes. User can change this interval by AT Command or LoRaWAN Downlink Command. See this link:

2.5 Show Data in Datacake IoT Server
Datacake provides a human friendly interface to show the sensor data, once we have data in TTN V3, we can use Datacake to connect to TTN V3 and see the data in Datacake. Below are the steps:
Step 1: Be sure that your device is programmed and properly connected to the network at this time. Step 2: To configure the Application to forward data to Datacake you will need to add integration. To add the Datacake integration, perform the following steps:

2.10 Battery Analysis
2.10.1 Battery Type
The LDDS75 battery is a combination of a 4000mAh or 8500mAh Li/SOCI2 Battery and a Super Capacitor. The battery is non-rechargeable battery type with a low discharge rate (<2% per year). This type of battery is commonly used in IoT devices such as water meter.

2.10.2 Replace the battery
You can change the battery in the LDDS75.The type of battery is not limited as long as the output is between 3v to 3.6v. On the main board, there is a diode (D1) between the battery and the main circuit. If you need to use a battery with less than 3.3v, please remove the D1
and shortcut the two pads of it so there won’t be voltage drop between battery and main
board.
The default battery pack of LDDS75 includes a ER18505 plus super capacitor. If user cant find this pack locally, they can find ER18505 or equivalence, which will also work in most case. The SPC can enlarge the battery life for high frequency use (update period below 5 minutes)

There are two kinds of commands to configure LDDS75, they are: General Commands.
These commands are to configure:
General system settings like: uplink interval. LoRaWAN protocol & radio related command.
They are same for all Dragino Device which support DLWS-005 LoRaWAN Stack. These commands can be found on the wiki:
http://wiki.dragino.com/index.php?title=End_Device_Downlink_Command
Commands special design for LDDS75
These commands only valid for LDDS75, as below:
3.1 Access AT Commands
LDDS75 supports AT Command set in the stock firmware. You can use a USB to TTL adapter to connect to LDDS75 for using AT command, as below.
Or if you have below board, use below connection:
