What
This page is about the Dragino LGT-92, a GPS-enabled LoRaWAN tracker node.
The plan is to investigate if the firmware can be improved, e.g.:
- fix minor existing bugs
- see the Issues page on github
- add Cayenne encoding
- collect information on how to interface with it (over the "USB" port)
- perhaps write a replacement firmware, that can be easily compiled with platformio
Hardware
As far as I understand:
- STM32L151 microcontroller, could also be STM32L072 I can't get this really clear
- GPS
- accelerometer, MPU9250?
- button, 3 LEDs (R, G, B)
- 1000 mAh battery + charging circuit

Software
Dragino binary firmware downloads: https://www.dragino.com/downloads/downloads/LGT_92/firmware/
It's a bit peculiar that there are binary versions out there that have no correspondence to the source archive. Every commit in the official source archive consists of a huge number of changes, often includes also binary/intermediate files.

Flashing
When holding the reset pin (e.g. push a dupont-pin in the hole next to the USB connector), you can communicate over SWCLK/SWDIO debug pins.
ST-Link pin connections (from: https://github.com/dragino/LGT-92_-LoRa_GPS_Tracker/issues/10):
ST-LINK v2 5.0v <--> Dupont red pin ST-LINK v2 SWDIO <--> Dupont white pin ST-LINK v2 SWCLK <--> Dupont green pin ST-LINK v2 GND <--> Dupont black pin
Official firmware binaries are available here
For example:
openocd -s /usr/share/openocd/scripts -f interface/stlink.cfg -f target/stm32l0.cfg
To program a HEX file:
openocd -s /usr/share/openocd/scripts -f interface/stlink.cfg -f target/stm32l0.cfg -c init -c "program LGT92-EU868-v1.6.2.hex verify reset exit"
This takes only a few seconds.
TTN mapper configuration
Connect it through a USB-UART converter, pins GND, RX, TX. Switch the LGT-92 on. Connect at 9600 baud.
Run these commands to set it up with ABP keys, ADR off, uplink at SF7 every 15 seconds:
