@wienke is this correct?
Hi
That is what we’ve ordered:
MTCDT-H5-210A-US-EU-GB
MTAC-LORA-915
AN868-915A-1HRA
MTDOT-915-X1P-SMA-1
MTUDK2-ST-MDOT MultiConnect mDot Developer Kit
For the gateway we ordered the mLinux one.
If we need help I let you know!

@flavio I think you’ve ordered the AEP version
AEP version MTCDT-H5-210 A -US-EU-GB
mLinux vern MTCDT-210 L -US-EU-GB
It’s the leater after -210x A is for AEP L is for Linux

I sent you the wrong code. The one we ordered was: MTCDT-210L US-EU-GB

Awesome @flavio
Got the same one
have you tested them? what firmware are you using? is already connected to the TTN?
Is there actually anyone at all connected to TTN currently? Or is it just the reporting page that doesn’t update anymore? (last update on Sunday) http://www.ttnstatus.org/

Not yet. They will arrive in Brazil on October 13th.

Just a note, when ordering mDot modules, they come in a number of versions. I have a number of the SMA and u.Fl versions. The SMA ones include the programming header and fit in the mDot developer kit, the u.Fl versions don’t include the programming header and I had to solder these on myself.
The mDot developer kits include an antenna and SMA pigtail for connecting to the u.Fl mDot once you have the programming header added.
I’d advise getting 2 or more of the dev kits and some spare antenna for use with mDot that are installed in other devices. Partly because the micro USB socket used in mbed programming could break with repeated use.

thx for the advise
i got 5 mDots and 5 dev kits. so we can also share with the initial community.
also 1 conduit with ETH and 1 with GMS. So we can move around the city and also test coverage.
We will also get two dev kits and SMA mDots. We also purchased the AEP/NodeRED version and may have to MQTT in to TNN. It’s a way for us to have a level of security while providing a ‘global’ net.
i got the mLinux Version.
i hope we can hook to the TTN easily. if not, do you know if i can move to NodeRED easily?
@ropu @creatinghere . I hope this too. I know @johan had a call this week with Multitech to discuss how to hook the mLinux Conduit Gateway to TTN.

@Ropu and @flavio according to multitech you can move from NodeRED to mLinux but not the other way.
And I have heard rumor the mLinux packet forwarder will be is being worked on and will ready sooner for the mLinux models – allowing them to hook in more quickly.
I debated w myself hard on this and opted for security and rapid/easier development over time to TTN.
@johan is this true and can you confirm status for both models, please? Important and timely.
** From my perspective if everyone had a NodeRED conduit we could all share “flows” and seed rapid dev. innovation. **
Thanks,
Patrick
i’ll contact them to get more info and even see if i can get the NodeRed and then migrate to mLinux.
good tip @creatinghere
@creatinghere be aware that if you go for mDot Xbee with SMA it’s best that you get pig-tail as the antenna can lift the mDot from xBee header.
This will do the job: http://www.ebay.com/itm/15cm-RP-SMA-male-to-RP-SMA-female-Pigtail-Jumper-Cable-RG316-6-6in-/160516746722
I’m using the UFL as they are a bit cheaper.
Also you should both be using http://www.multitech.net/developer/ and signup for the Forum.
Where you will find @thinginnovations & Myself
@creatinghere @Ropu @eduardo . I am trying to have a quick call with Mike Kidd of Multitech tomorrow to clarify these doubts regarding mLinux and the NodeRed. I let you guys know if I have more information.
Just dropping in to say Hi and Kudos to Buenos Aires! Singapore, here just coming up to the starting line.
Best.

@iikaw I did go for the xbee. Excellent, Lawrence. Taking care to share ahead of any potential problems. The world should work in such a way. Thanks.
I’ll find you on mtech/dev.
