2. Quick Start

The LPS8-V2 supports network access via Ethernet or Wi-Fi connection and runs without a network.

In most cases, the first thing you need to do is make the lps8-v2 accessible to the network.

2.1 The LPS8-V2 connects to the network

2.1.1 Method 1: Connect the network via Ethernet,

2.1.2 Method 2: Connect the network via Wi-Fi.

2.2 The LPS8-V2 is registered and connected to The Things Network

This page shows the LoRa Radio Settings. There is a set of default frequency bands according to LoRaWAN protocol, and users can customize the band* as well.

Different LPS8v2 hardware versions can support different frequency ranges:

• 868: valid frequency: 863Mhz ~ 870Mhz. for bands EU868, RU864, IN865 or KZ865.
• 915: valid frequency: 902Mhz ~ 928Mhz. for bands US915, AU915, AS923 or KR920

After the user choose the frequency plan,  the user can see the actual frequency is used by checking the page LogRead --> LoRa Log

Note *: See this instruction for how to customize the frequency band:
