(which sends/receive packets to/from LoRa gateways) fails for V2.1 packets if the code has not been upgraded to handle them. Our MultiTech server code has not been upgraded yet, and therefore cannot be used to process LoRa V2.1 packets. Therefore, if the customer does not have additional server-layer support, the MultiTech LoRa V2.1 gateway can only be used as a packet forwarder.

This section applies to LoRaWAN V1.5 devices only. To configure the LoRa Network Server: Install the LoRa mCard. Refer to http://www.multitech.net/developer/products/multiconnect- conduit-platform/accessory-cards/installing-an-accessory-card/. Attach the LoRa antenna to the LoRa mCard. Use the power cable to connect power to the Conduit and wait for the Conduit to boot up.

GETTING STARTED WITH AEP MODELS Chapter 3 – Getting Started with AEP Models Logging in to AEP Note: This chapter applies to LoRaWAN V1.5 devices only. After connecting and powering up your device, log in to AEP: Open an Internet browser. In the browser’s address field, enter the device's default address for the device: http://192.168.2.1 The login page appears.
GETTING STARTED WITH AEP MODELS If using two cellular antennas, check Diversity. Do not check this option if using one antenna. To enable dial-on-demand, check Dial-on-Demand. This tells the device to only make a PPP connection when there is outgoing IP traffic, and it brings the PPP connection down after a given idle timeout. The default Idle timeout is 180 seconds.
Getting Started with LoRa Using DeviceHQ for Device Management DeviceHQ is a cloud-based device management tool for remote monitoring, upgrades, and configuration AEP devices.
