1. Introduction
1.1 What is LPS8v2
The LPS8v2 is an open-source LoRaWAN Gateway. It lets you bridge LoRa wireless network to an IP network
via WiFi , Ethernet or Cellular Network (via Optional 4G module). The LoRa wireless allows users to send data
and reach extremely long ranges at low data rates.
The LPS8v2 is fully compatible with LoRaWAN protocol. It supports different kinds of LoRaWAN Network
Connections such as: Semtech UDP Packet Forwarder, LoRaWAN Basic Station, ChirpStack MQTT Bridge,
and so on. This makes LPS8V2 work with most LoRaWAN platforms in the market.
LPS8v2 also includes a built-in LoRaWAN Server and IoT server, which provide the possibility for the system
integrator to deploy the IoT service without cloud service or 3rd servers.
Different countries use different LoRaWAN frequency bands. LPS8v2 has these bands pre-configured. Users can
also customize the frequency bands to use in their own LoRa network.
LPS8v2 supports remote management. System Integrator can easy to remote monitor the gateway and maintain
it.

1.4 Block Diagram
1.5LED Indicators
LPS8-V2 has totally four LEDs, They are:
# Power LED: This RED LED will be solid if the device is properly powered
# ETH LED: This RGB LED will blink GREEN when the ETH port is connecting
# SYS LED: This RGB LED will show different colors in different states:
# SOLID GREEN: The device is alive with a LoRaWAN server connection.
# BLINKING GREEN: a) Device has internet connection but no LoRaWAN Connection. or b)
Device is in booting stage, in this stage, it will BLINKING GREEN for several seconds and then with BLINKING
GREEN together
#SOLID RED: Device doesn't have an Internet connection.
# WIFI LED:This LED shows the WIFI interface connection status.
1.6 Button Intruction
LPS8-V2 has a black toggle button, which is:
#Long press 4-5s :the gateway will reload the Network andInitialize wifi configuration
LED status: ETH LED will BLINKIND BULE Until the reload is finished.
#Long press more than 10s:the gateway will restore the factory settings.
LED status: ETH LED will SOLID BULE Until the restore is finished.
2. Quick Start
The LPS8-V2 supports network access via Ethernet or Wi-Fi connection andruns without a network.
In most cases, the first thing you need to do is make the lps8-v2 accessible to the network.
2.1 Connects to the network and accesses the gateway Web UI
2.1.1 connect the network
Method 1: Connect via Ethernet with DHCP IP from the router
Connect the LPS8-V2 Ethernet port to your router and LPS8-V2 can obtain an IP address from your router. In the
router's management portal, you should be able to find what IP address the router has assigned to the LPS8-V2.
You can also use this IP to connect.
Method 2: Connect via LPS8-V2 Fallback IP
Steps to connect via fallback IP:
1. Connect the PC's Ethernet port to LPS8-V2's WAN port
2. Configure PC's Ethernet port has IP: 172.31.255.253 and Netmask: 255.255.255.252
As in the below photo:
3. In the PC, use IP address 172.31.255.254 to access the LPS8-V2 via Web or Console.
Method 3: Connect via WiFi with DHCP IP from the router
Fill in the WiFi information by checking the box and clicking Save&Apply
Wi-Ficonfiguration successful
