S216 to S219: LORA APP_KEY
The ranges from S216 to S219 determine the APP_KEY used during the JOIN phase in OTAA mode. The key is made up of 32 characters spread
across these 4 ranges, which can each contain 8 characters. The S216 range contains the first 8, the S217 range contains the next 8, the S218
range contains the next 8 and the S219 range contains the last 8.
Example : 0018B244 41524632 0018B200 00000912
S216 = 0018B244
S217= 41524632
S218 = 0018B200
S219 = 00000912
S220: ADR activation
If the ADR mode has been activated, the device will have no control over the SF because the parameter can only be modified by the network.
If the ADR has been deactivated, the SF value used is that contained in the S201 register.
S221: Activation mode
This range will allow you to configure the device's activation mode:
•
The "Over The Air Activation" (OTAA) mode uses a JOIN phase before it can transmit on the network. This mode uses the code APP_EUI
(S214 and S215) and the code APP_KEY (S216 to S219) during this phase in order to create the network communication keys. Once this
phase has finished, the APP_sKEY, NWK_sKEY and DEVICE ADDRESS codes will be present in the corresponding ranges. A new JOIN phase
will start each time the device exits command mode, is reset or is supplied with power.

•
The "Activation By Personalization" (ABP) mode does not have a JOIN phase, but transmits directly on the network by directly using the
codes NWK_sKEY (S222 to S225), APP_sKEY (S226 to S229) and DEVICE ADDRESS (S281) in order to communicate.

S222 à S225: LORA NWK_sKEY
The ranges from S222 to S225 determine the NWK_sKEY used during network exchanges. The key is made up of 32 characters spread across
these 4 ranges, which can each contain 8 characters. The range S222 contains the first 8, the S223 range contains the next 8, the S224 regis-
ter contains the next 8 and the S225 range contains the last 8.
Example: 0018B244 41524632 0018B200 00000912
S216 = 0018B244
S217= 41524632
S218 = 0018B200
S219 = 00000912
S226 to S229: LORA APP_sKEY
The ranges from S226 to S229 determine the APP_sKEY used during network exchanges. The key is made up of 32 characters spread across
these 4 ranges, which can each contain 8 characters. The S226 range contains the first 8, the S227 range contains the next 8, the S228 range
contains the next 8 and the S229 range contains the next 8.
