www.dragino.com 1 1.1 Introduction What is PG1301 LoRaWAN Concentrator? The PG1302 is a multi-channel high performance transmitter/receiver designed to simultaneously receive several LoRa packets using random spreading factors on random channels. Its goal is to enable robust connection between a central wireless data concentrator and a massive amount of wireless end-points spread over a very wide range of distances.

System structure This example is an example to show how to set up the PG1301 + RPi as a LoRaWAN gateway to use with TheThingsNetwork(TTN) LoRaWAN server..
www.dragino.com 2.2 Hardware Installation Important Notice: Please power the RPI with 5V,2A cable. RPI in this example is RPI model 3B with fresh Raspbian OS install. pi@raspberrypi:~$ cat /etc/os-release PRETTY_NAME="Raspbian GNU/Linux 8 (jessie)" NAME="Raspbian GNU/Linux" VERSION_ID="8" VERSION="8 (jessie)" ID=raspbian ID_LIKE=debian HOME_URL=http://www.raspbian.org/ SUPPORT_URL=http://www.raspbian.org/RaspbianForums BUG_REPORT_URL=http://www.raspbian.org/RaspbianBugs 2.3 Install the software 2.3.
www.dragino.com After set up, the status should show not connected as below: 2.3.2 Download and install LoRaWAN packet forwarder In RPI , run: wget http://www.dragino.com/downloads/downloads/LoRa_Gateway/PG1301/software/lorapktfwd.dep This will download the packet forwarder package from Dragino Server to RPI. run “sudo dpkg -i lorapktfwd.dep” to install pkt fwd, pktfwd will auto run after this command. But the TTN will still show not connected because the Gateway ID doesn’t match.
www.dragino.com 2.3.3 Config Gateway ID, Frequency Band and Server address After installation, user can find the configuration file in /etc/lora. Replace the gateway ID we got above to the gateway_ID in file local_conf.json The default frequency band is EU868 in global_conf.json file and the default LoRaWAN server points to TTN. ➢ If user want to change to other frequency bands, User can copy the file from /etc/lora/cfg and rename it to global_conf.json and put it into /etc/lora .
