Two ways to configure
Toolbox · USB
Bench commissioning, calibration, maintenance, and firmware.
- Port types, calibration, identity
- JoinEUI / AppKey / region / DR / ADR / rejoin
- Firmware update (USB bootloader)
- Diagnostics & expertise tools
Downlink · FPort 4
Field tuning after deployment — not a commissioning replacement.
- Mode, periods, keepalive, voltage limit
- Alarm flags & thresholds
- GET/SET param (max 6 per batch)
- Not: FW, network keys/region, port types, calibration
| Toolbox (USB) | Downlink | |
|---|---|---|
| When | Bench · maintenance | After deployment |
| Scope | Full config + app FW update | Small parameter subset |
| Software | MOIZ Toolbox | Your LNS → FPort 4 |
What is configured
General workflow
-
Connect Toolbox
USB link on the bench.
-
Set up general operation
Application mode, measurement types per port, periods, LoRaWAN join, alarms.
-
Set up calibrations
Per port, after measurement types are chosen — only if needed.
-
Verify
Use Toolbox calibration / debug tools; confirm uplinks and decoding on the LNS.
-
After deployment
Use downlink only for changes listed in the downlink reference.
Firmware update (Toolbox)
Application firmware is upgraded only through Harvestree Toolbox over USB (built-in bootloader) — not via LoRaWAN. Separate from updating the Toolbox PC application itself.
-
Open Firmware update
In Toolbox, with the device connected on USB.
-
Pick a qualified image
Check Release notes; contact MOIZ or your supplier if unsure.
-
Start firmware update
Confirm the prompt and wait until Toolbox reports success — do not disconnect USB or close the app.
-
After reboot
Check reported FW version, review config / calibration if needed, and align the LNS decoder when MOIZ indicates a payload change.
These cannot be changed over LoRaWAN downlink (use Toolbox / USB): factory reset, LoRaWAN network settings (region, join credentials, radio network parameters), and port measurement types.
Keep Harvestree Toolbox aligned with the device firmware you run. New measurement modes or LoRaWAN regions may need a newer Toolbox — check Release notes (or MOIZ / your supplier) for the matching pair.
Precautions
- ✓Match each port measurement type with a qualified probe and cabling.
- ✓Changing measurement type on a port clears that port’s calibration and alarms.
- ✓Document remote changes (who, when, what) in industrial deployments.
- ✓For energy / autonomy impact of periods and radio, contact MOIZ or your supplier.
