Manthink modules

For Node experimenters, there is a LoraWAN dev board called Colorbrick not covered here yet afaik.

Any experiences building nodes based on the OM series module are welcome.

The interesting specs often concern the software. What is it, what does it do? Can it be modified? Replaced?

And of course what the underlying hardware component is: which MCU, which radio.

Im waiting to receive one. Some data on the module I could find:

  1. [OM422U] is based on SX1268 & HCF32L19(cortexM0 MCU) support CN470,ALI470,EU433
  2. [OM841U] is based on SX1262 & HCF32L19 , support EU868, AS923,KR920 and so on
  3. UART is available to operate the module realizing the LoRa/LoRaWAN RX & TX by [MT command format]
  4. There are other easier way to use the module.
    4.1 [OM841TA]《OMx41TA-LoRaWAN Transparent Transmission Module Specification》
    4.2 [OM841TB]《OMx41TB-LoRa Transparent Transmission Module Specification》
    4.3 [OM841TC]《OMx41TC-LoRaWAN Transparent Transmission Module Specification》
  5. The module’s MCU can be opened for writing application codes based on MPOS&EB
    Edge-Bus-based secondary development guide
  6. A more easier way for hardware design, color brick is a modular kit for developer realized the IOT device quickly.

    7.More reference source codes opened

    I am new user of the forum, only support 2 links in one post. Many More information, please contact with me.

Thank you for adding that,
Possibly you refer to TTN documentation https://mensikeji.yuque.com/docs/share/6889ed17-1b4f-4202-b925-2f2be3cf10df?
and module configuration https://mensikeji.yuque.com/docs/share/854923f0-a963-481b-9399-e920da2ddec8?#

Maybe helpful is the index of documentation
