Abstract

Start from navigating in the resources available then take a deep breath and dive-in the details of the LoRa P2P Protocol and the APIs available exclusively for SAM R34 LoRa Technology ICs and WLR089U0 Module. Get two evaluation boards, setup your software environment and enjoy the Out-of-box demo capable of establishing a wireless communication between two devices with less than 30 lines of C code to run the stack in the application layer. Then customize the reference sample code and enable application to fulfill typical real-life use case examples.
