| 321 | 32.1°C |
Commands
get temp
Example:

Get the counter value of all left-to-right counts. You can overwrite the value by using the set command.
Commands
get ltr
Example:
get ltr
1
Get the counter value of all right-to-left counts. You can overwrite the value by using the set command.
Commands
get rtl
Example:
get rtl

Commands
clear
Example:
clear
ok
PCR2 can run in four different modes:
| 0 | Timespan, used to sum up detection and send after a certain time (Sending Interval) |
| 1 | NotZero, Same as Timespan but w/o sending if counters are 0 (zero) |
| 2 | Trigger, Send on every events. Events can be filtered with Hold Off setting |
| 3 | Capacity Alert Mode |
New mode will be active only after a restart.
Commands
get mode
set mode <val>
Example:
get mode
2
set mode 0
0
restart
Set the radar sensitivity to 10 … 100% if you think the device is too sensitive. Default: 80
Commands
get sens
set sens <val>
Example:
get sens
80
set sens 50
50
restart
Set the accumulation interval in minutes (1…1440 minutes). Default: 10 During this time, alle persons will be counted and 2 sums (LTR and RTL) will be transfered. After transfer counters will be reset.
Commands
get interval
set interval <val>
Example:
get interval
15
set interval 60
60
This is a timer (0…600s) can be used to filter events that come close after another (eg. Car with Trailer). Default: 0
Commands
get hold
set hold <val>
Example:
get hold
60
set hold 0
0
Defines how the sum will be accumulated.
| 0 | LTR count will increase sum (default) |
| 1 | RTL count will increase sum |
Commands
get dir
set dir [0|1]
Example:
get dir
0
set dir
1
All Events will be accumulated in the sum. Depending on the Direction Settings LTR/RTL events will increase / decrease the sum. Sum is cleared on power loss.
| dir | count | sum |
|---|---|---|
| 0 | LTR | +1 |
| 0 | RTL | -1 |
| 1 | LTR | -1 |
| 1 | RTL | +1 |
Commands
get sum
get sum <val>
Example:
get sum
-21
set sum -20
-20
If the PCR2 is equiped with a XIO Board following operation modes can be enabled
| 0 | Off | Switch XIO Board off |
| 1 | Pulse | Generate a 500ms pulse on O1 if RTL detected, O2 if LTR is detected |
| 2 | Detection | O1 is always on. If LTR or RTL is detected, O2 will be on during holdoff time |
| 3 | CapacityAlert | O1 on when sum < lim, O2 on when sum >= lim |
Commands
get xiomode
set xiomode <val>
Example:
get xiomode
2
set xiomode 0
0
restart
Enable or disable LoRaWAN™ radio. If disabled you can use the device as a wired-sensor connnected wie USB. ‘LTR’ or ‘RTL’ will be sent over the serial interface on detection.
Commands

Set / Get the Application Session Key (AppSKey). AppSKEy is used for encryption and decryption of the payload. The payload is fully encrypted between the Node and the Handler/Application Server component of The Things Network (which you will be able to run on your own server). This means that nobody except you is able to read the contents of messages you send or receive.
