PyGate as LoRa node



  • Hi,

    I´m quite a beginner with the Pycom products and wonder if there is a possibility to missuse the Pygate as a LoRaWan node (TTN end device)?

  • @Yusuf-BAYLAV let’s note for clarification that the Pygate version of the firmware of the LoPY or FiPy does not include support for LoRa end-device operations. So one would need to use the “regular” version of the firmware with no support for the Pygate.



  • Hello,

    The Pygate itself has no computing capabilities. It needs to be attached to a Development Module, LoPy for example. If you attach a LoPy to the Pygate, you can of course configure the LoPy as a LoRaWan node. In that case you would not be using the Pygate as a LoRa gateway, instead you would be using it as a shield just like an Expansion Board.

    Thanks.
