# Chirpstack
# About
The Chirpstack integration is used to connect LoRa gateways into the IoT Open platform. The gateways then handle sensor values from all LoRa sensors in an area.
This integration is managed by the IoT Open team.
# Configuration
# Selecting installation(s) for a device
The Chirpstack integration is set up to handle connecting a single LoRa-sensor
to one or more installations. This is done by adding a tag
called lynx_client_ids as a tag on the device. This is a comma separated list
of client-IDs in IoT Open that this device should be connected to. The software
automatically adds DeviceX and FunctionX objects for all defined values to those
installations.
# Selecting a specific decoder
It is possible to specify a specific named decoder for a sensor in Chirpstack.
This might be needed if sensor type can not be determined automatically.
To do this, add a tag called lynx_decoder_name on the device in Chirpstack.
This tag can be added to all devices. Please refer to the manufacturer list
for the names of the decoders.
This is an example of a device with the decoder name tag set.
