Introduction
API 7 is a new firmware concept that significantly extends the functionality and robustness of existing API 6
- support LoRaWan technology, NB-IoT ready, Sigfox-LoraWan dual mode
- GNSS support
- lower idle consumption
- API 6 was pull-based, API 7 is event (IRQ) driven
- variable bit-depth of data reported (typically 8,12bit)
- 8x255 configuration registes (8pages, can be extended to 16)
- data logging capability into EEPROM (2MB)
- 2 color LED with configurable blinking patterns support
- modular structure (sources, processing modules, filters, messaging modules, etc.)
- the shift from predefined fixed modes to fully configurable processing blocks
- universal processing of data by modules within the firmware
- faster and more seamless introduction of new sensors and functionality
- multidevice local OTA firmware update and configuration (proprietary broadcast protocol)
- improved internal health checks - increases long-term stability
- possible to store any configuration and restore it later including factory default settings
- support 4 analog/digital inputs, up to 5 digital outputs
- support external UART, I2C,1-wire
- improved security - signed fw, encrypted OTA
- power control 1dB step
