Notes
Before you start
The XDK LoRa-Extension is a wireless and secure communication solution that can exchange data up to a range of 40 km. Public or
private LPWANs can be joined or created. For more information, see our XDK LoRa-Extension 2-pager.
Warning: Risk of Interference and unlawful use:
Before activation of the XDK LoRa-Extension, check the country variant of your XDK-LoRa-Extension. E.g. the Version
with country code „EU" is certified for operation in the EU.
Outside the certified country, the use of the XDK LoRa-Extension might be in conflict with legal requirements and
frequency band allocations. That may cause harmful interference and risk of legal prosecution. The user must inform
himself and ensure that legal requirements are fulfilled before activating the XDK LoRa-Extension.
In advance, install the workbench, version 3.5.0 or higher on a PC (see xdk.io/learning – workbench installation).
