Milesight LoRaWAN Sensors/Nodes
ChirpStack V4 Server (server frequency should be the same as gateway and sensors)

Step 1. Add Service Profile

Step 2. Add Device Profile

Step 3. Add an Application

Step 4. Add a Device

Step 5. Check Device Data

Step 6. Send Downlink Command

Configurations

Step 1. Add Tenant

Go to Tenants page and click Add tenant to create a tenant. You can keep all settings by default.
