Best Practice

How to generate the Configuration Payload

You can use a config string sent by the device after joining the network and modify it manually. You could also use the PCR Setup tool to generate this string.

Keep track of your device settings

PCR2 devices are sending a uplink with this configuration string using Port 190. This is done at least once after devices joined the network.

Saving this information on your application server allows you to always know about your device settings.

Check Port and Payload Header in your decoder

Always check for port 190 prior to decoding a configuration payload. Additionally you could also check Bytes 0-2.


    // check for valid pcr2 config pl 
    if (bytes.length == 14 && bytes[0] != 0xbe) {
    {
        // decode configuration payload v2



    }
