Device Pre-Provisioning via the Netmore Platform

Overview​

Device pre-provisioning via the Netmore platform aims to establish a standardized access process for projects using Netmore LoRaWAN network services. The core purpose is to complete the legal registration of devices in the network, achieve parsing and decoding of device raw data, and ultimately reliably connect the formatted data to the Neuron data platform through the MQTT protocol.

tip

This method is mainly suitable for scenarios relying on the Netmore network, where device data formats are non-standard and require specialized decoding, and there is a desire to coordinate devices with upper-layer applications through a standardized process.

Access Method & Prerequisites​

How to access​

Use the account credentials provided by the Neuron technical support team to log in to the Netmore device management platform for operations.

Before You Start​

Prepare the unique identifiers (e.g., DevEUI) of the devices to be accessed and gateway information in advance. Confirm that the devices are physically installed, powered on, and in a connectable state.

Netmore Platform Operations​

Step 1. Register Device in Netmore Device Management Platform​

1.1. Log in to Netmore Device Management Platform​

Netmore Login Interface

1.2. Create Gateway​

  • Navigate via the left main menu

Menu Bar

  • Add a new Gateway in the platform, select "Create Gateway" from the menu bar

Gateway Creation 1

  • In the pop-up window:
    • Network Provider : Select the project name from the dropdown menu
    • Gateway Model: Select the correct device model
  • Click "Create" to complete this step

Gateway Creation 2

Tip: View Gateway List​

  • Click "Search Gateway"

Search Gateway 1

  • Keep filter conditions empty and click "Search" to display all gateways

Search Gateway 2

Add Gateway

1.3. Create Sensor​

  • Select "Create Sensor" from the left menu

Sensor Device

Sensor Details

  • Submit to complete sensor registration

Tip: View Created Sensors​

  • Use the "Search Sensor" function (operation similar to gateway search)

Step 2. Device Decoding​

2.1. Apply for Device Decoding​

  • Contact Neuron Technical Support and provide the Device Identifier

2.2. Confirm Successful Decoding​

  • Neuron Technical Support will notify you upon successful device decoding
  • Visit the Netmore Decoding Platform to confirm device status
  • Access the Device List via the top navigation bar
  • Select the correct device group and device from the dropdown menus

Formatted Device List

  • If data is flowing continuously, it indicates decoding is complete

Check Decoding Status

Step 3. Obtain MQTT Connection Certificate​

3.1. Export Certificate from Netmore Decoding Platform​

  • Go to Administrator → Customers → [Your Project Name]

Step 1-2

  • Check the correctly configured format (usually select MQTT Decoded V2 (Always)) → Click Export Certificate in the upper right corner

Step 2

Device Access to Neuron Data Platform​

Refer to LoRaWAN Device Access to register the device on the Neuron platform.

When selecting the LoRaWAN NS, you can choose an Existing NS or create your own NS. Note that in either case, the LoRaWAN NS type needs to be selected as Netmore.

Step 1-2

Note:​

  • Successful device registration only means that the platform has recorded the device information and displays a "Registered" status. Real-time data is not yet connected at this point. The system will subscribe to the reported data based on the configured parameters. After data cleansing and storage are completed, the device status will change to "Connected" and appear in the device list.
