Gateway Kickstarter - Things UNO

Hello to everybody,
probably this topic is discussed a lot in this forum, but I am confused.
I would really appreciate not see a reply, like “search the forum”, because I am looking the last 3 days.
I don’t want to waste time of anyone, just looking for a reliable guidance, that would also help other members.

I have managed to connect the Kickstarter Gateway to The Things Network V3, using the updated firmware in the micro SD.
I am trying to activate the Things UNO that I have but I can’t.
I have tried the options, OTA, ABP and quikstart sample, but no results and activity seen in the Application of the TTN.
Please instruct if there is a special configuration that I have missed, in order to complete connection.

Thanks in advance

Does your KSGW show traffic from your Uno in its logs?
What does local serial console on Uno say is happening?

Please provide details of what you have done/tried so we dont have to play 20 questions or ask you to search the… :wink: :slight_smile:

What were you looking for? The detail would give us some indication of where you are at.

What do you mean by activate? What tells you that you can’t? The detail would give us some indication of where you are at.

No results? No serial output from the Uno? The detail would give us some indication of where you are at.

What version of the Arduino IDE and the two libraries you have to install are you using? What instructions are you using?

It’s all about the detail …

Thank you for the replies.
I will send all details you need.

The Arduino IDE is 1.8.12
The Library I have installed 2.7.2
TheThingLibrary

Thanks in advance

The Code I use is for the Sample SendOTA

#include <TheThingsNetwork.h>

// Set your AppEUI and AppKey
const char *appEui = "XXXXXXXX";
const char *appKey = "XXXXXXXX";

#define loraSerial Serial1
#define debugSerial Serial

// Replace REPLACE_ME with TTN_FP_EU868 or TTN_FP_US915
#define freqPlan TTN_FP_EU868

TheThingsNetwork ttn(loraSerial, debugSerial, freqPlan);

void setup()
{
  loraSerial.begin(57600);
  debugSerial.begin(9600);

  // Wait a maximum of 10s for Serial Monitor
  while (!debugSerial && millis() < 10000)
    ;

  debugSerial.println("-- STATUS");
  ttn.showStatus();

  debugSerial.println("-- JOIN");
  ttn.join(appEui, appKey);
}

void loop()
{
  debugSerial.println("-- LOOP");

  // Prepare payload of 1 byte to indicate LED status
  byte payload[1];
  payload[0] = (digitalRead(LED_BUILTIN) == HIGH) ? 1 : 0;

  // Send it off
  ttn.sendBytes(payload, sizeof(payload));

  delay(10000);
}

What does the KSGW log show on the TTN console….trying to see if your node is actually transmitting something that the GW receives and recognises as a valid LoRaWAN message….

How is your UNO registered/configured in TTN console…. Note in move from V2 to V3 RX2 window typically 5sec unless you have overridden. Suggest change on uno to 5sec and make sure device registration consistent……

Also 10sec repeat Tx in sketch is too frequent…. And would breach FUP…. With the LoRaWAN modules own stack likely to limit message rate to enforce dc in some cases so charge loop delay from 10000 (10sec) to much higher number to reduce risks and make situation clearer

The UNO is not registered at all. There is no traffic at the TTN Console
The RX window is configured at the device configuration?
Where should I change the uno to 5sec?

Thanks in advance

TL:DR… you aren’t seeing anything because you have only done half the job - besides setting up the GW and registering it in TTN you have to do the same with the Node → create an application in the console → add a device to the application. Ensure settings (keys) match, correct the set up of the node and if done correctly following the documentation and various online guides and the advice on the Forum you should be golden :slight_smile:

See above :man_shrugging:

Note what is a worry is that even if you havent set up the node in TTN the GW should still see traffic from the node - especially in ABP mode - if it is set up correctly and transmitting, atleast if both GW and node are configured for same operating RF band…

What configuration/instructions are you following to get the UNO up and running? The big clue is

As you havent set the Node up in TTN there wont be any matching keys/recognision for any join request.

I also come back to

We need details and info as requested in order to help…

Thanks Jeff-UK for your assistance,
I have done the job
check the images
The Gateway is connected
GW_Connected
But there is no activity from the Node
End Device No Activity

Let me know what else you want me to do.
Best Regards

What configuration/instructions are you following to get the UNO up and running?

I loaded the Sample SendOTAA at the Things UNO.

At the End Device Configuration I kept the default settings.
Just took the
const char *appEui = “XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX”;
const char *appKey = “XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX”;```

3rd (and final!) time of asking…

Recommend 1) open console view in your browser - let it run open for a couple of minutes - you should see several GW status messages come through…once you know that is happening and viewable ok; 2) power cycle the node…after it reinitialises your should see traffic on the GW console view that you have left open…3) let it run for a couple of minutes to see what traffic comes through from the node and responses back - if any…4) capture the details and repost…then we can see what is or is not happening…

I am sorry,
but there are no messages in the TTN console, apart from Connect and disconnect.
Have a look
GW_Log
This is the Log from the Device in the Console
Device_Log

Your gateway log in message 4 showed it relaying a LoRa packet - was this at the same time as you were running the Uno?

If so, which we could assume means the gateway heard the Uno, the Uno log implies an issue with the keys. The join no_free_ch failure is due to attempting to transmit too often - as soon as it hits that you may as well turn it off to allow it all to reset.

If you can get a log from the Uno (turn on the timestamp on the IDE) and from the gateway, preferably with something that can timestamp the output, so we can see if the radio is actually working on the Uno, that would be a good start.

Hi descartes,
thanks for the help.
Is there an easy way to see the radio transmission of the Lora Module?
In order to verify that the LoRa Module transmits.
Perhaps tomorrow I will get a Spectrum Analyzer, to check what is wrong.

As the Gateway Runs,
I should see different messages passing because I don’t.
As you can see from the other post.

This is the Log from the KickStart UART
in this case there is no LoRa Module active around, just the Gateway.

Could you explain what are these entries from the Log?

Not without special googles. But you can see it in the gateway log, see it on the gateway console, see it on the application console, feel it in your fingers and feel it in your toes.

That’s not what I suggested so it’s very very very very very hard to help any further - if you’d got the timestamps of the device and the gateway we may have been able to tie up the LGMD:Rejected packet (0x11) with the Join Request transmission which may imply that the device is too close to the gateway. But we may never know without those timestamps …
