1-Scopious platform integration
Description
Scopious is a platform focused on LoRaWAN IoT solutions, aiming to provide users with an all-in-one service that covers gateway integration, device management, data visualization, and automation.
Developed by Go Wireless NZ Ltd, a well-known wireless communication company based in New Zealand, the Scopious platform combines extensive wireless communication expertise with modern cloud technology. Through Scopious, users can quickly deploy LoRaWAN networks, remotely monitor various sensor devices, and analyze environmental data via intuitive dashboards. It supports smart alerts and data exports and is compatible with multi-vendor devices. Scopious is suitable for use in smart cities, industrial monitoring, agricultural environments, and more.
This document mainly explains how to integrate a UG65 gateway with the Scopious platform and how to add a sample device for demonstration. Readers can also refer to the platform’s Help Documentation alongside this guide.
Special Note:
The AM308 device mentioned in this document is for demonstration purposes only. Other sensor models are also supported. Readers should follow the steps according to their actual use case.
Requirement
- Gateway Model: UG65 (UG56, UG67,UG63,SG50 also supported)
Sensor Model: AM308
Frequency Band: AS923 (used in this demonstration)
Gateway: Must already be connected to the Internet.
Configuration
Step 1: Create an Account
Visit Scopious IoT Platform and fill in the basic information as prompted:After registration, go to Scopious IoT Platform, enter your username and password, and click Login:
You will see a screen like the one below:
Step 2: Register Gateway
It is recommended that you first confirm your gateway model and contact Scopious support to verify compatibility.
You can check the supported hardware list here:

Now let’s register the UG65 gateway. This model is already proved by the platform and can be added directly.
Follow the steps shown below:Here is an example of the information I entered for reference.
Note: The EUI value is obtained from your gateway; it is labeled on the device housing.
After clicking "Add Gateway", you will see the following interface:
Click "Download Key" to save it locally. This key will be required later during gateway configuration.
Note:
This screen appears only once, so be sure to download the key now, there’s no way to retrieve it again later.
At this point, your gateway is registered with the platform.
Next, you need the following two pieces of information:
● Public Key File: Download it here
● CUPS Address: gowifi.au1.cloud.thethings.industries
If the platform says the gateway has already been registered, please check whether you’ve previously added the gateway to your TTI or TTN account. If so, please delete it first to avoid conflicts.
Step 3: Gateway Configuration
a) Disable Built-in Network Server
Log in to the gateway’s web interface (refer to How to Login Web GUI of Milesight Gateway) and follow the steps shown below:
If you see Embedded NS as “Disabled” and “Disconnected,” it means it has been successfully disabled.
b) Configure Multi-Destination Parameters
Follow the steps as shown below:
Configure the parameters as shown in the screenshot:
Parameter Description:
● Type :
Select The Things Industries from the dropdown
● Server Protocol :
Select CUPS
● Server Address :
gowifi.au1.cloud.thethings.industries (as obtained in Section 2)
● CA File(*.pem) :
Upload the public key file obtained in Section 2
Filename like tti-root-ca-minimal-certificate-list.pem
● Client Key File(*.key):
Upload the private key file obtained in Section 2
Filename format: {Your Gateway EUI}-cups.key
For example: 24E124FFFEFA3300-cups.key
After configuring, click "Save".
Wait a moment, and if Connect Status shows Connected, it means the configuration is successful:
Step 4: Check Gateway Status
Return to the Scopious platform and follow the steps shown.
If Last Seen displays a timestamp and the status is green, it means your gateway has successfully connected and established a data link with the platform:
At this point, the gateway integration is complete.
Let’s proceed to add the sensor.
Step 5: Add Sensor
Follow the steps shown below:
In the pop-up window, fill in the information as shown:
There are three methods to add a sensor:
● Method 1: Search by EUI
You need to submit your sensor’s basic information to the platform in advance, including (but not limited to): device model, manufacturer, hardware version, firmware version, Device EUI, serial number, LoRa parameters (App Key, App EUI, Join Type, etc.). This method is suitable for first-time users.
After entering your Device EUI, click Search:
● Method 2: QR Code
This is similar to Method 1 and won’t be repeated here.
● Method 3: Use Template
Select the manufacturer from the dropdown, choose the device model, and then enter the sensor’s LoRa parameters:
After adding the sensor, wait 3–5 minutes.
You should see something like this:
You will see that the Signal is green, and Last Seen is updated.
This means the sensor was added successfully, and the platform is receiving real-time data.
Step 6: Sample Dashboard
Step 7: Sample Alarm
Here we use a CO2 threshold alert as a demonstration:
First, enter a Name, then click the Settings tab. Set the Level to "WARNING" and fill in the Information field based on your use case:
Next, click the Conditions tab.
Select your AM308 device and choose CO2 as the parameter.
Set the logic condition to greater than 750 (for demonstration purposes only):
Quick Test:
Enter 800 in the popup (which is greater than 750), and you will see the alarm is triggered:
