Herong Lu 106.1 549 ==== Overview: ====
550
Herong Lu 111.1 551 DRAGINO-LA66-APP is a mobile APP for LA66 USB LoRaWAN Module. DRAGINO-LA66-APP can obtain the positioning information of the mobile phone and send it to the LoRaWAN platform through the LA66 USB LoRaWAN Module.
Herong Lu 106.1 552
Herong Lu 111.1 553 View the communication signal strength between the node and the gateway through the RSSI value(DRAGINO-LA66-APP currently only supports Android system)
554
Herong Lu 106.1 555 ==== Conditions of Use: ====
556
557 Requires a type-c to USB adapter
