Hello, i just started learning about Lora and i bought the the multitech starter kit. i have a question about the Mdot ,is it a sensor ? can i program it to measure pressure for example ,im a little confused
mDot is the combined microcontroller and LoRa radio. You use it as a simple LoRaWAN modem by sending AT commands via a serial connection. The better way is to program it directly in C and C++ using the os.mbed.com environment. All the required developer info should be on the Multitech site http://www.multitech.net/developer/products/multiconnect-dot-series/multiconnect-mdot/
Once you’re setup you can then add on pretty much any sensor you want and create your own nodes.

Thank you so much , I know this might sound stupid but am just starting to learn about it from scratch , do I buy a separate sensor for example a pressure sensor or what , and how can I connect it to mdot ,
