2.3.0 is out. Two parts of it are mine.
LoRaWAN: ABP devices, Class C downlinks and a pairing mode. You find them on the Devices and profile pages and in the API. See Add an ABP device, Device classes A and C and Pairing mode.
SCADA: new symbols for cement, chemical and paper plants, for automotive, pharma and furniture lines, and for material handling and storage. They come in 2D and 3D. The lists are in Symbols and industry packs and Symbol reference: other packs.
Also in 2.3.0: gauges take their default scale from the range the device profile declares for the value. Kuray is posting about the new read-only IoT viewer role.
ABP is welcome. We have a box of older water meters that cannot do OTAA. Anything to watch out for?
Two things. The DevAddr has to belong to the network’s NetID; with NetID 000000 that means between 00000000 and 01FFFFFF, otherwise it is refused. And the frame counters: many ABP devices start counting from 0 again after a restart or a battery change, and those frames are dropped as replayed. Hermetry never re-syncs a counter by itself. When you know the meter restarted, use Reset counters on its LoRaWAN tab; the reset goes into the audit log.
Class C is what we needed for the street light controllers. How long after the last uplink does a downlink still go out straight away?
15 minutes by default (900 s). It is the profile setting classCMaxAgeS, from 60 to 86,400 seconds. After that a downlink waits for the next uplink. Class B is not supported.
Are the cement symbols a new library? We bought Heavy industry in September.
Cement is part of Heavy industry: cyclone preheater, clinker cooler, vertical roller mill, rotary packer and the rest. Search the palette for “clinker” and you should find them open.
There they are. The clinker cooler goes straight onto our kiln screen.
