29 The MS48-LR is an (% style="color:blue" %)**open-source LoRaWAN To Modbus Gateway**(%%). It lets you bridge LoRa wireless network to an IP network via (% style="color:blue" %)**WiFi , Ethernet or Cellular Network**(%%) (via Optional 4G module). The LoRa wireless allows users to send data and reach extremely long ranges at low data rates.

298 === 2.2.1  Overview ===
299
300
301 MS48-LR supports flexible network set up for different environment. This section describes the typical network topology can be set in MS48-LR. The typical network set up includes:
302
303 * **WAN Port Internet Mode**
304
305 * **WiFi Client Mode**
306
307 * **Cellular Mode**
308
309 === 2.2.2  Use the WAN port to access the Internet ===
310
311
312 By default, the MS48-LR is set to use the WAN port to connect to an upstream network. When you connect the MS48-LR's WAN port to an upstream router, MS48-LR will get an IP address from the router and have Internet access via the upstream router. The network status can be checked on the (% style="color:blue" %)**home page**:

315
316
317 === 2.2.3  Access the Internet as a WiFi Client ===
318
319
320 In the WiFi Client Mode, MS48-LR acts as a WiFi client and gets DHCP from an upstream router via WiFi.
321
322 The settings for WiFi Client is under page (% style="color:blue" %)**Network ~-~-> Wi-Fi**

331
332 === 2.2.4  Use built-in 4G modem for internet access ===
333
334
335 Users can see whether MS48-LR has EC25 on the label of the gateway to determine whether there is 3G/4G Cellular modem.
336
337 If the MS48-LR has 3G/4G Cellular modem, user can use it as main internet connection or back up.
338
339 First, install the Micro SIM card as below direction
340
341 Second, Power off/ ON MS48-LR to let it detect the SIM card.

367
368
369 === **Step 1: Configure the LoRa Radio to your area Frequency Plan** ===
370
371
372 The Frequency Plan has to be set the same as the Sensor node Frequency Plan.
373
374 [[image:image-20231108164616-1.png||height="353" width="765"]]
375
376
377 === **Step 2: Copy the unique Gateway EUI & Configure the LoRaWAN Server address** ===
378
379
380 Every MS48-LR has a unique gateway EUI. The ID can be found on the LoRaWAN Semtech page:
381
382 [[image:image-20231110160659-1.png||height="804" width="1004"]]
383

392
393
394 [[image:image-20231110170323-4.png||height="526" width="1006"]]
395
396
397 === **Step 5: Register the gateway to the built-in ChirpStack** ===
398
399
400 Copy Gateway EUI from the previous step to the following interface:
401
402 [[image:image-20231110170802-5.png||height="675" width="1011"]]
403
404
405 === **Step 6: Register the Sensor-node to the built-in ChirpStack** ===
406
407
408 The gateway is already set up to connect to the built-in ChirpStack network, so we now need to configure the built-in ChirpStack.
409
410 Create a device in ChirpStack with the OTAA keys from LHT65N.
411
412
413 ==== **1). Add Device Profiles** ====

415 [[image:image-20231110172143-6.png||height="641" width="1017"]]

418 ==== **2.) Add End Node Device** ====
419
420
421 **Create an Application**
422
423 [[image:image-20231110172604-8.png]]
424

428 [[image:image-20231109092517-2.png||height="516" width="1000"]]
429

437
438
439 === **Step 7: Configure Modbus RTU/TCP Slave** ===
440
441
442 The gateway can as a Modbus RTU slave to run, the user can set a range of the register to write a sensor node uplink data.
443
444
445 For example, there is a sensor node EUI is 70b3d57ed0051e22, the register start is 0xABCD and the register length is 14, which means the uplink data will be written to the register starting at 0xABCD register and the maximum write length not to exceed 14 registers.
446
447 So the sensor node 70b3d57ed0051e22 uplink data will be written to the 0xABCD - 0xABE1 register.
448
449 (% style="color:red" %)**Note: Since the length of the payload is the same for different sensor nodes if The length of the data is greater than the configuration length, the data will be replaced with FFFF.**
450
451 **Slave Setting:**
452
453 Slave Mode  ~-~--> Support both RTU and TCP mode
454
455 Enable Modbus Slave  ~-~--> Enable Slave
456
457 Slave Address/Port  ~-~--> Set the slave address/port
458
459 Show Sensor History  ~-~--> See the sensor data log
460
461
462 **Sensor Settings:**
463
464 Device EUI  ~-~--> Sensor node's EUI
465
466 Register Start  ~-~-->  Setting the start register address to write the sensor node's data
467
468 Register Length  ~-~-->  The maximum write length with register
469

555 (% lang="EN-US" style="background-attachment:initial; background-clip:initial; background-image:initial; background-origin:initial; background-position:initial; background-repeat:initial; background-size:initial" %)For example, there is a sensor node EUI is(%%) a840411be186e411, the register start is 0x0000 and the register length is 14, which means the uplink data will be written to the register starting at 0x0000 register and the maximum write length not to exceed 14 registers.

809
810 * LHT65N register on MS48-LR Built-In ChirpStack server already
811 * The user is able to see the data on the built-in ChirpStack server device page
812 * The RS232 relay is connected to the RS232 interface of the MS48-LR
813
814 The MS48-LR RS232 interface corresponds to (% style="color:blue" %)**/dev/ttyS2.**
