LoRa on 2 LOPYs plus serial
-
Dear All,
I need your help. I am working on connection serial -lopy-lopy-serial.
I need to send an alert to 1 lopy via serial and than forward it to a second lopy via LoRa.
Since I want to be sure that the whole alert has been sent it has to finish with special character \n. It works well till i am using LoRa, where what I am getting on second lopy is my alert but without \n. Could you help me to understand what i am doing wrong?
Computer code is this one:import os import serial import time ser = serial.Serial("/COM6", 115200, timeout = 10) alert0 = 'message' + '\n' alert = alert0.encode('utf-8') ser.write(bytearray(alert)) ser.close() time.sleep(3)
First lopy:
from machine import UART from network import LoRa import socket import pycom import time uart = UART(1, baudrate=115200, pins = ('P20', 'P21'), timeout_chars=2000) lora = LoRa(mode=LoRa.LORA, frequency=863000000) s = socket.socket(socket.AF_LORA, socket.SOCK_RAW) s.setblocking(False) while True: data = uart.read(1000) print ('.') if (data is not None) and ('\n' in (data.decode('utf-8'))): print(data) s.send(data) final = s.recv(64) print(final) time.sleep_ms(1000)
and second lopy, where I receive the alert via LoRa and save it on SD is here:
from network import LoRa import socket import pycom import time lora = LoRa(mode=LoRa.LORA, frequency=863000000) s = socket.socket(socket.AF_LORA, socket.SOCK_RAW) s.setblocking(False) while True: data1 = s.recv(64) if len(data1) > 0: s.send('data here') with open('/sd/lora_alert.txt','ab') as f: f.write(data1) else: s.send('no alerts') time.sleep(2)
and here i got stuck as what i get on SD is not what I have sent...

@monersss
Can you post a sample of the file stored on the SD card? I programmed the first lopy to constantly send hello, and this was my result:Hello Hello Hello Hello Hello Hello Hello Hello Hello Hello Hello Hello Hello Hello Hello Hello Hello Hello Hello ...

@seb Sorry, I have missed this part of the code. Second lopy has this code in main, together with importing .py file torub LoRa , so here everythins works well, The message is stored on SD but without \n at the end....

Hi,
Looking over your code I noticed you do not mount the SD card, please add this code:
from machine import SD sd = SD() os.mount(sd, '/sd')
I just tried this code running on two lopys with the latest firmware and everything seems to work as expected.
