And there isnt an ND topic - just use Forum search look for threads covering the specific gateway and problems getting connection/activation/full led light up etcâŚmany from when 1st introducted in Dec 2017 through 2018âŚ
There arenât any and itâs not something we have time for - weâd have to read them and many of them, like this thread, have lots of irrelevance - so theyâd need sanitising. So itâs up to the ânot paying for supportâ user to read the prior material. If you pay for support, then TTI engineers can help you directly.
But if youâd like to fund some extended documentation for the community âŚ
âŚdepends on your perspective are you prising the grey lid off the black case/chassis or extracting the black rear case/chassis that houses the motherboard from the grey top panel/lidâŚHummmm !
If youâve taken the lid off you now have access to the card that you can reseat - referencing the pictures on other posts you may have found on the forum by now.
Be very careful with the uFl connector - best not to remove it - they are only rated for about 20 uses. There is enough cable for you to unplug & re-plug the card without disconnecting it.
You are not our customer, we are VOLUNTEERS, second time you missed that detail.
I presume you researched which gateway to purchase before you got yours? And enquired on the forum about what to buy?
Double irony that you bought a node hoping to use a community gateway based at Microchip and you ended up struggling with a gateway thatâs based on a PIC32 âŚ
I have deployed a few and currently have 20+ more behind me in home office waiting for community deployments - set up from unboxing usually 3-5 mins so about right!..unless you get a badun then wow what a B!tc4 Can take more than 30⌠Longest is if trying via WiFi hence me avoiding for 1st set up per other thread. Only the Laird RG1xx seems faster (2-3 mins) along with the TTIG (3-4)âŚ
Dont worry Nick, Amit is refering to the product promotion:
