Duinotech WXC4394 User Manual

LoRa Gateway
The LoRa Gateway is an ideal solution for connecting sensors and sensor networks to the internet.
The XC4394 LoRa Gateway incorporates a OpenWRT based router SoC offering WiFi, LAN, WAN and
USB connectivity. Also connected to the SoC is an ATMega328 microcontroller offering functionality
similar to an Arduino Uno. Many of the ATMega328’s IO pins are broken out to a screw terminal
header. The ATMega328 is also connected internally to a LoRa compatible module.
The following ATMega328 pins are broken out, as well as A2 being connected to the ‘heartbeat’ LED
on top of the unit:
