Best practices to limit application payloads

Could be described as i.e. FF 03 67 05 67 in the first packet, and 01 10 00 FF in next packets.

Unless you’re using confirmed uplinks for the first uplink, I guess you’d need to send the LPP details a few times, to be (quite) sure they arrive. But the idea would be the same.

However, I’ve never understood the need to do the administration in the node. Like I wrote elsewhere:

When administering many nodes, you’ll surely also have other details to keep track of. Like maybe:

• The device hardware version, software version, installation date, battery type
• For devices on a fixed location: coordinates, height
• For each sensor in a device: calibration details, measurement intervals to detect broken sensors, serial numbers for warranties

So, I feel it is easy to also administer each node’s sensor setup.

And as an aside:

@Pyrog

0110 = 272 ⇒ 27.2°C

Don’t forget negative temperatures
