LoRa AU915 support

Wed Jan 08, 2020 2:49 am

I just received a wAP R and a R11e-LoRa9 card and started setting them up.

I use the AU915-928 bandplan which bears no resemblence to the channels that RouterOS shows when AU915 is selected.

Is there any way to add a custom bandplan, or what am I doing wrong?

I missed the bit in the documentation where you can set the channel-plan to custom (from the teminal).

For anyone interested, here are the settings I'm using to support AU915-928 on the things network https://www.thethingsnetwork.org/docs/l ... plans.html

I've based a lot of this from https://github.com/TheThingsNetwork/gat ... _conf.json
/lora
set 0 channel-plan=custom
/lora channels
set 0 bandwidth=125_kHz disabled=no freq-off=-400000 radio=radio0
set 1 bandwidth=125_kHz disabled=no freq-off=-200000 radio=radio0
set 2 bandwidth=125_kHz disabled=no freq-off=0 radio=radio0
set 3 bandwidth=125_kHz disabled=no freq-off=200000 radio=radio0
set 4 bandwidth=125_kHz disabled=no freq-off=-300000 radio=radio1
set 5 bandwidth=125_kHz disabled=no freq-off=-100000 radio=radio1
set 6 bandwidth=125_kHz disabled=no freq-off=100000 radio=radio1
set 7 bandwidth=125_kHz disabled=no freq-off=300000 radio=radio1
set 8 bandwidth=500_kHz disabled=no freq-off=300000 radio=radio0 spread-factor=SF8
set 9 bandwidth=125_kHz datarate=50000 disabled=yes freq-off=0 radio=radio0
/lora radios
set 0 center-freq=917200000 disabled=no rssi-off=-166 tx-enabled=yes tx-freq-max=928000000 tx-freq-min=915000000
set 1 center-freq=917900000 disabled=no rssi-off=-166 tx-enabled=no tx-freq-max=0 tx-freq-min=0

Thanks for this, we're all starting to have the same issue. I've raised SUP-15776 as a feature request to support sub-bands better (or at least as well as US915).

[edit] Config works well, thanks. Just ssh in and copy&paste.

Hi, I´m working with RBLtAP-2HnD, but the channel plan is only EU868, I need to use AU915.
the message of equipment is:
Radio 0 Tx max freq. above 870.0 MHz

[admin@MikroTik] /lora> /lora radios
[admin@MikroTik] /lora radios> set 0 center-freq=917200000 disabled=no rssi-off=-1
66 tx-enabled=yes tx-freq-max=928000000 tx-freq-min=915000000
failure: Radio 0 Tx max freq. above 870.0 MHz
[admin@MikroTik] /lora radios> set 1 center-freq=917900000 disabled=no rssi-off=-1
66 tx-enabled=no tx-freq-max=0 tx-freq-min=0
failure: Channel 0 above max freq. 870.0 MHz

how is possible to change the channel plan to AU915????

From the error it looks like you might be using the LR8 variant (difference is the Lora sub-board itself) which is designed for EU868 and similar.

You need the LR9 board, you can either buy the individual board and swap it, or return the entire kit and buy the LR9 version.

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news.
