LoRa Device Tutorial

When setting up a LoRa client device, you need to do four main steps:

1. Create a description for the device in OpenChirp
2. Setup the firmware on the device and get the LoRa DevID
3. Add the LoraWAN service in OpenChirp and input the DevID
4. Add a decoder service (EasyBits or ByteTranslator) and a TimeSeries datastore

Here are some common devices that work with OpenChirp:

• PyCom LoPy
• LoRaBUG
• MultiTech Mdot

We probably want to do two modes:

• Devices with Templates
• Completely Custom
