Étape 5 - Firmware Development for Wio-WM1110

Before we begin developing, we will need the following tools to complete this Getting Started Guide.

Preparation

Wio-WM1110 Dev Kit x 1
Computer x 1
USB Type-C Cable x 1
USB Type-B Cable x 1
J-Link Debug Programmer(or nRF52dk) x 1

Power on the Wio-WM1110 Dev Board and connect the J-Link Debug Programmer to the board as follows:

Connect the nRF52 DK's J-Link SWD pins (SWDIO and SWCLK) to the Wio-WM1110 Dev Board's SWD pins (SWDIO and SWCLK) to flash the firmware

CONNECTION:

3V3 (Wio-WM1110 Dev Board) -> VTG (J-Link Debug Programmer nrf52dk)CLK (Wio-WM1110 Dev Board) -> SWCLK (J-Link Debug Programmer nrf52dk)DIO (Wio-WM1110 Dev Board) -> SWDIO (J-Link Debug Programmer nrf52dk)GND (Wio-WM1110 Dev Board) -> GND (J-Link Debug Programmer nrf52dk)

Programming Software:

A variety of programming software options exist for developing firmware on the WM1110. I have tested the module using Arduino IDE, PlatformIO, Keil uVision, Visual Studio Code, SEGGER Embedded Studio (SES), and Mbed Studio. From my experience, Mbed Studio and SEGGER Embedded Studio (SES) offer the most user-friendly experience for firmware development. This Getting Started guide will utilize SEGGER Embedded Studio (SES) for developing the firmware.

SEGGER Embedded Studio (SES) is a comprehensive and user-friendly IDE for managing, building, testing, and deploying embedded applications. This translates to smooth and efficient development operations thanks to its extensive feature set.

Powerful Project Management: Effortlessly manage your Wio-WM1110 firmware projects, regardless of size or complexity, with SES's robust project management tools.
Seamless Version Control: Leverage built-in version control features to track changes and deploy applications automatically.
Integrated Build and Debugging Tools: Utilize SES's powerful integrated build and debugging tools to streamline your Wio-WM1110 firmware development workflow.

Installing SEGGER Embedded Studio :

The software can be downloaded from this link: It's recommended to use the 5.68 version.https://www.segger.com/downloads/embedded-studio/

Download the nRF5 SDK and place it in the same directory where SEGGER Embedded Studio is installed.

The nRF5 SDK provides a comprehensive development environment for nRF5 Series devices. It includes a broad selection of drivers, libraries, examples for peripherals, SoftDevices, and proprietary radio protocols. All code examples within the SDK are specifically designed to compile and run on the Wio-WM1110 Dev Kit, streamlining your development process.

The software can be downloaded from this link: nRF5 SDK-Download

Download the Seeed Example Package and place it in the same directory where the nRF5 SDK is installed.

The Seeed Example Package can be downloaded from this link:Seeed Example-Download

Seeed Studio provides an example project to jumpstart developers' progress. This project encompasses LoRaWAN communication, positioning information acquisition, onboard sensor data acquisition, and more.

Add Seeed Example file to nRF5 SDK

Copy the Seeed Example file to the following path of nRF5 SDK: .../nRF5_SDK_17.1.0_ddde560/examples/peripheral/

Étape 6 - Testing the Wio-WM1110's Onboard LED with a Blinky Example

The Blinky Example code is readily available within the "Example" folder. Access the code by navigating to the "Open solution" tab.

Compiling the test application

Select "Build" > "Compile project_target".

Programming the test application

After compiling the application, you can program it to the Dev board.

Click "Target" -- "Connect J-Link"

Click "Build" -- "Build and Run" to build the blinky project.

You will see "Download successful" when it has been completed.

Then the 2 LEDs on the board will blink as follows.

Étape 7 - Example code for Seamless Integration of WM1110 using TTN and ThingSpeak.

In this project, the onboard temperature and humidity sensors of the WM1110 development kit are used to collect data. This sensor data is sent to ThingSpeak for data transmission and visualization, utilizing TTN webhooks integration.

Before diving straight into LoRaWAN integration, we need to learn the LR1110's instructions to integrate it with the code. Otherwise, it won't be easy to understand the code.

First, learn about LoRaWAN from the Semtech Learning Center. Here is the link to the courses: https://learn.semtech.com/

Next, go through the LoRa Basics™ Modem User Manual for comprehensive instructions on handling the LoRaWAN protocol.

Étape 8 - Setup the LoRaWAN Configuration keys

Wio-WM1110 DK allows users to set the DevEUI, AppEUI, and AppKey, so you can set up our parameters in the 'lorawan_key_config.h' file

Based on the operating region, you must specify the LORAWAN_REGION. The AppEUI key is user-defined and requires manual entry during registration.

In the current example project, I have manually entered the AppEUI key.

Device Registering on LoRaWAN® Network Server(TTN)

To begin, register for an account with The Things Industries or The Things Network.

Step 1: Create an application

Navigate to the Applications page, and click "+Create application".

Enter an application ID in lowercase letters and numbers only. You may also use the hyphen (-) symbol. Click Create Application to save your changes.

Step 2: Register the Device

Click "Register end device".

Set the following parameters:

Frequency Plan: Select the appropriate Frequency plan for the target region

LoRaWAN version:LoRaWAN Specification 1.0.3

The remaining keys, DevEUI and AppKey, can be generated using automated tools.

Here are the actual settings that I specifically configured for the current example project.

For a better understanding of how to integrate the whole process, please follow the video provided below.
