Keep-alive decoding

The Keep-alive is a periodically sent message which contains the most important device data.

The data is described in the table below, where an example is also given in a second table.

Keepalive example

Keepalive period

This command is used to set the period of the keep-alive command messages.

The keep-alive in the example is omitted for clarity.

Example command: 0x020F

The example sets the keep-alive period to 15 minutes.

Note that the period value must respect the LoRaWAN messages duty cycle limitations. Otherwise the message will be sent when this is allowed. In most of cases, min. allowed period is 3 minutes and recommended values are 10 minutes or greater.
