Working with The Things Network

TNN is a public LoRaWAN network server that makes it easy to register gateways, applications, and devices (nodes) and to transmit data from nodes to the network server via the registered gateways.

TTN enforces a few constraints that you need to be aware of before you start using it. These include the following:

  • Only transmitting binary data
  • Keeping data sizes as small as possible
  • Avoiding continuous data transmission
  • Utilizing an Adaptive Data Rate (ADR)
  • Avoiding downlink messages if possible
  • Avoiding confirmed uplinks

You can get started by visiting https://www.thethingsnetwork.org/ and creating an account. When you log in, you will be met with a console that lets you manage either applications or gateways. The top of the console looks like the following.
