Arduino kernel has changed and reset_lgw.sh shell script fails

pkirkham — Thu, 11 Jun 2026 12:09:28 +0000

I've recently purchased an LR1302 and hat for the Raspberry Pi. The reset_lgw.sh shell script fails because: echo "$SX1302_RESET_PIN" > /sys/class/gpio/export; WAIT_GPIO commands like the above are no longer supported with the stand…

How should solve the errors when using the LR1302 Gateway Module+HAT

Sun — Tue, 22 Oct 2024 08:58:16 +0000

Error 1
Note: chip version is 0x00 (v0.0)
ERROR: Failed to set SX1250_0 in STANDBY_RC mode
ERROR: failed to setup radio 0
ERROR: failed to start the gateway

Error 2
Note: chip version is 0x00 (v0.0)
ERROR: Failed to set SX1250_0 in STANDBY_RC mode
ERROR: failed to setup radio 0
ERROR: [main] failed to start the concentrator

If you encounter the similar error, make sure you're using buster first. They are not currently supported for use with bullseye and bookworm.

If you still have the same error using the buster version, it may be that the configuration is not completely correct. Try the configured image (https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1LL42h4sYU6f8MrvipY9GQXjcZutR_NGr?usp=sharing) provided by Elecrow.

questions about thinknode M3 meshtastic version.

Jully — Thu, 14 May 2026 01:43:02 +0000

Question:
" I have a few questions about M3.
1. Can the case be opened to replace the battery?
2. Can the device be flashed to other systems like Meshcore or Meshcom?
3. Is it possible to activate an SOS button, like on the LoRa version?"

Answer:
"1. Can the casing be opened to replace the battery? --- No, the battery cannot be replaced.

Can this device be flashed with other operating systems, such as Meshcore or Meshcom? --- Meshcore is supported. Meshcom support is uncertain; you may check the respective platform for support.
Can the SOS button be activated like in the LoRa version? --- Sorry, The SOS function has been removed. "

Does ThinkNode G1 do full or half duplex on 8 channels, simultaneously?

Jully — Thu, 14 May 2026 01:38:35 +0000

Question:
"Does this do full or half duplex on 8 channels, simultaneously?
Is the firmware open source so I can modify it to customize it?

ThinkNode G1 SKU: CIL12302G"

Answer:
"The ThinkNode G1 is not open source. The ThinkNode G1 can receive from 8 channels simultaneously, but can only transmit from one channel. It is a LoRaWAN multi-channel half-duplex gateway, not an 8-channel full-duplex communication device."

Which regional channel plans does the Thinknode G1 support?

Jully — Thu, 14 May 2026 01:36:04 +0000

Response:
In addition to EU868 and US915, the G1 also supports AU915, AS923, KR920, IN865, and RU864. CN470 is not supported.

The hardware SKUs are not the same for all regions.
US915, AU915, AS923, and KR920 share the same hardware.
EU868, IN865, and RU864 share the same hardware.
Except for EU868 and US915, other frequency bands require users to develop/configure the software themselves.

does the M3 have a reset button?

There's a tiny hole in the front with shiny metal inside. Or maybe that's the buzzer? In my software experiments I've gotten it into state where if it is not connected to USB power then the button does not start it up - and it takes a 10-second press with USB power to start it. How to restore? Note, the original firmware is long gone, I compile and upload my own, and it otherwise works. The problem arose after I ran a version of my software that called this, to activate wake-up when attaching to USB power:

nrf_gpio_cfg_sense_input(digitalPinToInterrupt(ext_power_pin), NRF_GPIO_PIN_PULLDOWN, NRF_GPIO_PIN_SENSE_HIGH);

where ext_power_pin is _PINNUM(0, 31) // P0.31

Typing with fast refresh/response on CrowPanel ESP32 4.2" E-Paper HMI?

jerdor — Wed, 29 Apr 2026 04:11:31 +0000

Has anyone successfully implemented fast refresh for typing on this device? I'm trying to create a writerdeck with it but don't see any examples online.

do you have LoRaWAN gateways that will work it Russia?

Jully — Thu, 23 Apr 2026 02:14:34 +0000

Currently we donot have.

Is the ThinkNode M6 compatible with the Meshcore Spreading Factor value 6?

Jully — Thu, 23 Apr 2026 02:12:59 +0000

Our hardware supports SF6, and Meshcore supports it as well.
