1.4 Block Diagram
1.5 LED Indicators
LG01-V2 has totally four LEDs, They are:
➢ Power LED: This RED LED will be solid if the device is properly powered
➢ ETH LED: This RGB LED will blink GREEN when the ETH port is connecting
➢ SYS LED: This RGB LED will show different colors in different states:
✓ SOLID GREEN: The device is alive with a LoRaWAN server connection.
✓ BLINKING GREEN: a) Device has internet connection but no LoRaWAN Connection. or b) Device is in booting stage, in this stage, it will BLINKING GREEN for several seconds and then with BLINKING GREEN together
✓ SOLID RED: Device doesn't have an Internet connection.
➢ WIFI LED: This LED shows the WIFI interface connection status.
1.6 Button Intruction
LG01-V2 has a black toggle button, which is:
➢ Long press 4-5s : the gateway will reload the Network and Initialize wifi configuration
LED status: ETH LED will BLINKIND BULE Until the reload is finished.
➢ Long press more than 10s: the gateway will restore the factory settings.
LED status: ETH LED will SOLID BULE Until the restore is finished.
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
Fill in the WiFi information by checking the box and clicking Save&Apply
Wi-Fi configuration successful
3. Web Configure Pages

3.4.2 Network --> System Status
3.4.3 Network --> Firewall
3.5 System
3.5.1 System --> System Overview
Shows the system info:
3.5.2 System --> Backup/Restore
4. Build in Server
The default factory version of LG01-V2 is installed with the built-in Applicant server: Node-Red
Note:
Path: System --> Built-in Server
Troubleshooting:
1. URL does not jump properly
For the Node-Red, you can use the local IP address and the port is 1880 to access it.
4.1 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>
5. How to configure the Lora Gateway
5.1 Access the Lora configuration page
Users can access the Lora configuration page by running the following command, then select the option ''serial port setup":
And then, change the setting:
Note: Enter the corresponding letter to change the configuration, like A,B,C
Enter AT+CFG in the interface to get the configuration,
5.2 Example: LG01-V2 Peer-to-Peer
The user can run the AT command to set the LG01-V2 RX window always open as a Receiver, The LG01-V2 can display the received data in the built-in server Node-Red, Here are the specific steps:
Prerequisites: The configuration of LG01-V2 and LA66 Shield must match and the LA66 Shield firmware is LA66 Peer-to-Peer firmware, users can use AT+CFG to check all configurations.
Log Temperature Sensor(DHT11) and send data to LG01-V2, show it in Node-RED.
LG01-V2 as Receiver: (configured as AT+RXMOD=65535,2)
LA66 Shield as Sender:
After the above configuration is complete, users can send test simulation data to check whether the configuration is correct, In LA66 sheild serial console send:(AT+SEND=1,hello world,2,3).
When LG01-V2 replies with ACK when it receives a packet sent by LA66 sheild.
In the real-time log of LG01-V2:
Hardware Connection
1. Open Arduino IDE
2. Open project
Users can download Arduino files from this link:
Then click Compile and Upload to LA66 Shield,
3. Open the Serial Monitor to check the LA66 Shield data
The LA66 Shield reads the temperature and humidity data from the sensor and sends it to LG01-V2,
4. Import the flow to the built-in server on LG01-V2
Users can import this example in Node-Red:
The temperature and humidity chart is displayed in the built-in node-red UI
Browser input: http://<local-IPV4-address>
6. How users can access LG01-V2 using serial USB
USB TTL to LG01-V2 Connection:
Port 1 of the UART on the LG01-V2 is GND
LG01-V2 UART connection photo
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. FAQ
7.1 How does LG01-V2 communicate with Lora shield (LoRa.h)
