Fix

  • Fix Voltage StepUp logic for GPS and LoRa
  • Send uplink before reboot when ACK required.

v7.1.0 - 17.06.2020

Added

  • Add timestamp for last movement event to Port 2 payload
  • Add config parameter movementDistance that configures how GPS-position changes are calculated as movement events.

Fixed

  • LoRaWAN 1.1 issue that sometimes led to invalid DevNonces used for OTAA Join.
  • Make sure, mode changes from active to passive are reported in final uplink before change
  • Fix an issue that could lead to all zero position data sent as valid position
  • Upgrade to Lobaro LoRaWAN Stack 1.2.2 (RX Window adjustment).

v7.0.0 - 28.04.2020
