| |
3.1 | 12 | The LPS8-V2 of Dragino LoRaWAN gateway can communicate with LoRaWAN ABP End Node, the working is based on the built-in server TTN-Stack. |
| |
2.1 | 13 | |
| |
30.2 | 14 | **It can be used in some cases such as:** |
| |
3.1 | 15 | |
| |
2.1 | 16 | * No internet connection. |
| 17 | * Users want to get data forward in the gateway and forward it to their server based on MQTT/HTTP. | ||
| |
3.1 | 18 | * Forward the data to the built-in Application server Node-Red. |
| 19 | * Just storing the data on the gateway or external storage | ||
| |
2.1 | 20 | |
| |
30.2 | 21 | **The basic of this feature is the decoding of** (% style="color:blue" %)**LoRaWAN ABP End Node**(%%). **Requirements:** |
| 22 | |||
| |
2.1 | 23 | 1. LoRaWAN End Node in ABP mode. Make sure your end node works in this mode. End node most are default set to OTAA mode |
| 24 | 1. LoRaWAN Gateway model: LPS8-V2 | ||
| 25 | 1. System version: Since V.12 | ||

| 30 | |||
| 31 | |||
| 32 | The default factory version of LPS8-V2 is installed with the Built-in LoRaWAN Server: (% style="color:blue" %)**The Things Network - Stack (Open Source 3.19 Version).** | ||
| 33 | |||
| |
12.1 | 34 | Once the gateway is DHCP an IPV4 address, and then you can access the build-in server TTN-Stack. |

14.1 | 112 | In this section, you can be seen that the payload of the sensor has been interpreted as visual data. |

36.1 | 165 | Data can be stored or read by subscribing to topics: (% style="color:#037691" %)**v3/<application_name>/devices/<devices_name>/up**. |
| |
17.1 | 166 | |
| |
35.1 | 167 | Then add the storage node **(write file)**, Users can download the Node-Red flowchart from this link to test data storage：[[attach:test_data_storage.json||target="_blank"]] |
| |
3.1 | 168 | |
| |
35.1 | 169 | After the configuration is complete, users can find the node logs in the root/ directory |

| |
3.1 | 178 | |
| |
23.1 | 179 | |
| |
30.3 | 180 | Downlinks can be scheduled by publishing the message to the topic (% style="color:#037691" %)** v3/<application_name>/devices/<devices_name>/down/push**. |
| |
23.1 | 181 | |
| |
30.3 | 182 | (% style="color:red" %)**Note**: **Remember that the format of this topic for The Things Stack Open Source deployment would be (v3/<application_name>/devices/<devices_name>/down/push).** |

| 187 | Instead of /push, you can also use /replace to replace the downlink queue. Replacing with an empty array clears the downlink queue. Example: | ||
