LoPy Nano-gateway and private lora-server installation
In this page we are going to:
- Install open source private LoRa server (by Orne Brocaar)
- Setup LoPy as single channel nano gateway
- Send data from LoPy node
Install private LoRa server:
1. We are going to use the Ansible playbook to setup all the LoRa server and dependencies.
Install Ansible (Reference: Ansible Installation *sudo apt-get install software-properties-common *sudo apt-add-repository ppa:ansible/ansible *sudo apt-get update *sudo apt-get install ansible
2. Clone the Ansible Playbook
Install git *sudo apt-get install git *sudo git clone https://github.com/brocaar/loraserver-setup *cd loraserver-setup
// todo: continue
Setup LoPy as a Single channel nano gateway: (Reference Pycom Forum Github Code
- Update LoPy firmware to 1.6.7.b1
- Download the code
- Edit the config.py file to setup: Gateway ID, Server IP, Server Port, Wifi Access Point for LoPy to connect to the network.
GATEWAY_ID = '11aa334455bb7788' SERVER = 'ip.address.here' PORT = 1700 WIFI_SSID = 'my-wifi' WIFI_PASS = 'my-wifi-password'
- Note: We can get gateway id by execute these code in LoPy (Referenece TTN):
from network import LoRa
import binascii
lora = LoRa(mode=LoRa.LORAWAN)
print(binascii.hexlify(lora.mac()).upper().decode('utf-8'))
- Copy the code to the 'flash' folder of LoPy:
Via FTP: Follow this reference to connect to LoPy via FTP pycom
- Reset LoPy
We should be able to see the message from gateway from MQTT server with this topic (Reference loraserver):
mosquitto_sub -t "gateway/#" -v
Send data from LoPy node:
- Register node in server
- Node code (LoPy)
- Subscribe to node data:
