[NOT COMPLETE] Pointers for using the BSFrance 32u4:

Note:

This board is a (approximate?) clone of the Adafruit Feather 32u4 Lora, so often help found online for the feather can also be used for this board.

Rough setup guide:

  • Get an antenna, plug it into the board (connector type is u.fl, same as the pycom lopy))

  • Get hardware zip from BSFrance and place in hardware-folder.

    • Link to zip
    • Place in your /arduino/hardware-folder (often ~/Documents/Arduino/arduino./hardware)
    • This will give you the LoRa32u4II board option.

  • The boards seem to misidentify themselves in Arduino IDE - saying they are 433 even if they are 868. This can safely be ignored.

  • [If on Debian/Ubuntu:] Install Adafruit udev-rules

  • [NOT TESTED] Apperently you need to solder DIO1 to D6, in order for the LoRaWAN Stack to function completely

  • Install "MCCI LoraWan LMIC Library" through Arduino library manager.

    • Normally TheThingsNetwork library does not work.

  • Start from the examples bundled with the MCCI-library.

    • maybe the one called ttn-abp
