 2. Quick Start

The LG01-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 LG01-v2 accessible to the network.

2.1 Connects to the network and accesses the gateway Web UI

2.1.1 connect the network.

Method 1:  Connect via Ethernet with DHCP IP from the router

Connect the LG01-V2 Ethernet port to your router and LG01-V2 can obtain an IP address from your router. In the router's management portal, you should be able to find what IP address the router has assigned to the LG01-V2.

You can also use this IP to connect.

Method 2:  Connect via WiFi with DHCP IP from the router

image-20220622100542-2.png

The LG01-V2 has a fall-back IP address on its WAN port. you have to access the gateway Web-UI to configure the WiFi connection via the fallback IP address.

Steps to connect via fallback IP:

1. Connect PC's Ethernet port to LG01-V2's WAN port

2. Configure PC's Ethernet port has      IP: 172.31.255.253 and Netmask: 255.255.255.252

image-20220622101433-4.png

and then On the PC, use the IP address http://172.31.255.254 to access the LG01-V2 via Web or Console.

4. How to configure the LA66 module

4.1 Access the LA66 module

Users can access the LA66 module by running the following command, then select the option ''serial port setup":

root@dragino-2406ef:~# minicom -s

image-20221029174637-2.png

And then, change the setting:

Serial Device : /dev/ttyUSB0

Bps/Par/Bits : 9600 8N1

Note: Enter the corresponding letter to change the configuration, like A,B,C

5. Build-in Server

The default factory version of LG01-V2 is installed with the built-in Applicant server: Node-Red, and LoRaWAN Server: The Things Network - Stack (Open Source 3.19 Version).

Note:

         Path: System --> Built-in Server

Troubleshooting:

         1. URL does not jump properly

                For the ttn-stack, you can click the update the URL which will update the configuration where change the hostname to the current local IP address as the URL.

                For the Node-Red, you can use the local IP address and the port is 1880 to access it.

5.1 LoRaWAN Network  Server -- The Things Network - Stack (TTN-V3)

You can access the gateway's built-in LNS server of The Things Network - Stack via the URL( http://<hostname>:8080 or http://<local-IPV4-address> ) in your browser.

Such as  http://dragino-54ff12:8080  or http://<Local-IPV4-Address>

Login account:

User ID:              admin

5.2 Application Server -- Node-Red

You can access the gateway's built-in AS server of Node-Red via the URL(http://<hostname>:1880 or http://<local-IPV4-address>) in your browser.

Such as http://dragino-54ff12:1880  or http://<Local-IPV4-Address>

6. How users can access LG01v2 using serial USB

USB TTL to LG01v2  Connection:

Port 1 of the UART on the LG01v2 is GND

TXD  <---> UART RXD (Gray line)

RXD  <---> UART TXD (White line)

GND <---> GND (Black line)

In the PC, you can use the serial port tool(such as putty in Windows), you need to set the serial baud rate to 115200 to access the serial console for LG01v2. LG01v2 will output system info once power on as below:

7. Trouble Shooting

7.1  I can't log in to the built-in Server TTN Stack which shows 'Login failed'.

This is caused by the inconsistency between the built-in TTN-Stack domain configuration and your login URL.

By default, ttn-stack uses the gateway's domain name for URL resolution, but in some networks, they prefer to resolve IP-v4 addresses.

So you can change the domain name of the TTN-Stack configuration to the IPv4 address.

Click the update URL button to configure the URL with the current eth port address.
