Just to be sure you know: this is just a TTN Community forum, not some professional support. > [@yomue](#): > > what does this mean? The data format is described in the first manual. Also, you will need to find a way to disable the confirmation that the device requests: with the TTN Community network [you’re only allowed 10 such confirmations per day](https://www.thethingsnetwork.org/forum/t/limitations-data-rate-packet-size-30-seconds-uplink-and-10-messages-downlink-per-day-fair-access-policy-guidelines/1300), so that would limit the uplinks to 10 per day as well. I cannot quickly find that in the manual, so please ask your provider about that. ---

> [@yomue](#): > > any proof that there’s a connection between the sensor and the gateway. So being TBS(TTN) forum, i was hoping someone succeeded on doing so. 1. Nodes do not connect to a gateway, a node transmits and any gateway within RF range receives and forwards it to the LoRaWAN backend. 2. This is the TTN forum where people are using hundreds of different types of nodes. For some node types there aren’t other forum users (yet) sharing their experiences. > [@yomue](#): > > guys please dont give up on me We’re not giving up, but we are not on-line 24x7. We are TTN users and have lives besides trying to answer questions on this forum… > [@yomue](#): > > what does this mean? You node is connected to TTN and transmits data. However it seems the acknowledgment is not always received. Is your node too close to the gateway? ---

@youmue, please see the blunt message in the RAKwireless forum about posting in two places. I suggest you carry on with this thread. ---

Hi @descartes, thanks for sharing. Actually I have read the document prior to posting the query but i just want confirmation so posted this query, because i saw information varies from document to document like data sheet, user manual for e.g. Tx Power, battery life time etc. Thank you once again 🙂 . ---

It would save the volunteers time if you’d said this in the first place. My reading of the docs is that it does not support IN - but the first port of call for anything like this is the manufacturer. [Previous page](https://www.thethingsnetwork.org/forum/t/turbo-tbs-200/17694.md?page=1)
