Undocumented board: Adafruit feather M0 Lora #100

Closed Cinezaster closed 7 years ago

Cinezaster commented 7 years ago

In the firmware we see the implementation of the adafruit feather M0 Lora board.

This were the first steps to get a working version for "TheThingsNetwork". But the development is actually stopped. We don't have the needed infrastructure for this in Stuttgart.

@ricki-z Thx. I was already doing some test with the RFM95W and the ESP8266 and the LMIC stack, but no success yet. I do need more time for this. Is there a MQTT broker if we manage to get it working?

@Cinezaster What are your problems ? I do have a running node with excatly the same configuration. May be, I can help?

@rexfue, I found your code for the LoPy, Thanks for the tip, I'll order one and start testing. Although Python is not a language I mastered yet.

Did you manage to have LoRa working on an ESP8266 NodeMcu with a RFM95W as wel? Because I have a couple of those laying around. Would be nice to find some example code and a connection diagram.

Our goal is to have our sensors next to official sensors but we don't have wifi or power at those locations. We could add a mobile phone to the sensor and tether the data connection over wifi, but a LoRa solution would be easier considering it uses less power and doesn't require Wifi access.

Yes I do. I will put description and software on github during coming weekend.

@rexfue You're a genius, I and all the members of civic labs Belgium are going to be very happy with your effort.

rexfue commented 7 years ago

@cinezaster Software and description are on github ( rexfue/Feinstaub_LoRa_ESP8266 ) I hope, I haven*t omitted anything. If there are questions, feel free to mail me ( rexfue@gmail.com mailto:rexfue@gmail.com ).

After successfully running the Lora version of @rexfue I think Lora should not be a part of this firmware.

I'm going to improve the usability of the Lora script in a fork of @rexfue firmware
Since we're going to develop a custom pcb combining ESP8266, RFM95W, SDS011 and DHT22 we're also looking into making this sensor battery powered and adding the necessary hardware to actually go into deep sleep.

Here also a working LoRa combination. https://github.com/ErwinHartogsveld/Feather_32U4_SDS011_BME280_TTN
