Brandon,

I changed the ip address and gateway on my Conduit so I could connect to my work network through a wireless Linksys router. I am able to connect to the Conduit via ssh and ping the Conduit across my network. Also able to send data packet from the LoRA mdot to the Conduit.

I loaded the sample Node.js application. Now I don’t see a data packet coming back from Conduit to LoRA mdot.

Any idea why the Node.js application is not working across my work network?

Thanks,

James

Brandon,

I need some clarification on sending packets from the Conduit to the mDot LoRA.
When I issue the following Conduit command (root@mtcdt:/home# mosquitto_pub -t lora/00:80:00:00:00:00:9c:c7/down -m ‘{ “data”:”aGVsbG8gd29ybGQ=” }’ to send data to the mDot LoRA, what data should I see on the mDot LoRA console and what do I do to see the data sent from Conduit?

After I send a packet from mDot LoRA to Conduit, I have been entering the command at+recv on mDot LoRA platform and I receive the following information.

at+recv
hello world

OK

Is “hello world” the data that is being transmitted from Conduit to mDot LoRA?

Thanks,

James

Brandon,

I am now seeing the packets that I send from the mDoT LoRA to the Conduit when using the mosquitto utility. Information that I am receiving is shown below.

root@mtcdt:/# mosquitto_sub -t lora/+/up
{“chan”:2,”cls”:0,”codr”:”4/5″,”data”:”aGVsbG8gd29ybGQ=”,”datr”:”SF9BW125″,”freq”:”912.3″,”lsnr”:”14″,”modu”:”LORA”,”rfch”:0,”rssi”:-21,”seqn”:6,”size”:16,”timestamp”:”2015-10-02T10:42:24Z”,”tmst”:1378025308}

Brandon,

Thanks for the information.

I executed the command: tail -f /var/log/lora-network-server.log in
the Conduit ssh command window.

I then executed the command below in the mDoT LoRA command shell to send the packe “hello world” to the Conduit.

at+send=hello world

OK

The following information was displayed in Conduit ssh shell. It appears that the Conduit is receiving the packet from the mDoT LoRA based on information provided below. I do so at end of the output shown below that I am getting
Recv’D Frame failed CRC check
Why am I getting this failure message??

My mDot LoRA has the following firmware and libm software versions installed.

ati
MultiTech mDot
Firmware: 0.1.4
Library : 0.0.9

The Conduit has the following firmware installed.

root@mtcdt:/# opkg list | grep lora
lora-network-server – 0.0.8-r0.0
lora-packet-forwarder – 1.4.1-r8.16
lora-query – 0.0.1-r0.0

The Conduit has the following mlinux version installed.

root@mtcdt:/# cat /etc/mlinux-version
mLinux 3.1.0
Built from branch: (detachedfrom4fd069b)
Revision: 4fd069b97a2354995920b52f731d661f0bacb39a

Based on this version information, should mosquitto be working properly?
Are these software versions compatible?

Brandon and Jason,

Thanks for your help. I am now able to join the network from my mDot Lora card.

Brandon,

I figured out how to do it. I download Winscp and used this utility to copy the files over to the Conduit.

Thanks,

James

[James Coleman]

Jason or Brandon,

I have one additional question for you. I am using a windows 7 professional computer and not a linux computer. I downloaded the most recent lora-packet-forwarder and lora-network-server files from the Downloads page.

They are stored in a directory on my Windows PC. How do I use the linux SCP command to copy both of the packages to the Conduit?

Thanks,

James

Jason,

Thanks for the information you provided. Provided below are the version numbers for the lora-network-server, lora-packet-forwarder and lora-query.

lora-network-server – 0.0.3-r0.0
lora-packet-forwarder – 1.4.1-r7.0
lora-query – 0.0.1-r0.0

Based on this information, am I not able to join the network with my mDot because I don’t have the correct versions of the lora-network-server and lora-packet-forwarder installed?

Thanks,

James
