Limitation for LG01. LG02, OLG01, OLG01-N, OLG02

Single Channels gateway are mainly used for private LoRa protocol. Not for LoRaWAN protocol

The single channel gateway has limitation to use with standard LoRaWAN sensor. In single channel gateway, the gateway can only set to work at one frequency and one data rate. A standard LoRaWAN Sensor can works in different frequency (3~72 depends on the frequency bands) and different data rates. So Single channel gateway will lost most of packets because the frequency and data rate mismatch.

In the chapter 3.6.2 of IoT Kit tutorial:, There are detail explanation of this limitation, There is library which for Arduino Like end node to overcome this issue.   Some other LoRaWAN sensors, when work with Single Channel Gateway. we need to do some special configure like: [Set Up Dragino End Node to work for Single Channel Gateway such as LG01/LG02|Instruction to set up Dragino End Node for Single Channel gateway] or Video Instruction to set End node to work in Single Frequency & Fix Data Rates For a general LoRaWAN sensor, please see if similar setting (Set to work in single frequency and fix data rate) is possible. Otherwise, there will be problem for communication due to the limitation.

For connecting a standard LoRaWAN devices. Please use the recommend LoRaWAN gateway:

1. LG308: Indoor Gateway base on SX1301. http://www.dragino.com/products/lora-lorawan-gateway/item/140-lg308.html
2. LPS8: Indoor Gateway base on SX1308. http://www.dragino.com/products/lora-lorawan-gateway/item/148-lps8.html
3. DLOS8: Outdoor gateway base on SX1301. http://www.dragino.com/products/lora-lorawan-gateway/item/160-dlos8.html

Set Up Dragino End Node to work for Single Channel Gateway such as LG01/LG02
