The Problem

Without This Module

Traditional SCADA systems struggle with IoT device integration. LoRaWAN sensors require separate platforms, creating data silos and increasing complexity. IT teams manage multiple systems instead of one unified platform.

Traditional SCADA systems lack IoT connectivity
Separate IoT platforms create data silos
Multiple systems to maintain and integrate
Wired sensors are expensive to deploy

The Solution

With This Module

The LoRaWAN module bridges the gap between OT and IoT. Connect any LoRaWAN sensor directly to Ignition, visualize data alongside your SCADA systems, and leverage Ignition's powerful tools for analytics, alarming, and reporting.

Key Features

Everything you need to build IoT solutions on Ignition

Embedded Network Server

No need for a third-party LoRaWAN Network Server. The module embeds its own LNS directly within Ignition.

Deploy a fully self-contained LoRaWAN infrastructure with zero external dependencies.

Automatic Tag Creation

Tags are automatically created for gateways and devices as they join the network.

Device profiles define tag templates with proper data types, units, and alarming presets.

Payload Decoding

Built-in decoders for popular sensor brands and custom decoder support.

Supports Milesight, Tektelic, MultiTech, Watteco, and custom JavaScript decoders.

Real-Time Visualization

Display sensor data on Perspective dashboards in real time.

Leverage Ignition's Perspective module for map views, time-series charts, and sensor status dashboards.

Smart Alarming

Configure alarms on any sensor data with full Ignition alarm pipeline support.

Set thresholds, deadbands, and escalation paths for any IoT metric.

Scalable Architecture

Handle thousands of devices across multiple gateways with automatic load distribution.

Enterprise-ready architecture with support for multi-gateway deployments and redundancy.

How It Works

Simple architecture for powerful IoT integration

Deploy Sensors & Gateways

Install LoRaWAN gateways and wireless sensors throughout your facility. No wiring required, just place and activate.

Automatic Network Setup

The module's embedded Network Server handles device join requests, manages gateways, and processes all LoRaWAN traffic. No third-party platform needed.

Automatic Tag Creation

As devices join the network, the module automatically creates Ignition tags for each gateway and sensor with proper data types and units.

Visualize & Act

Use Perspective to visualize data, configure alarms, store history, and build powerful IoT applications.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about the LoRaWAN IoT Module

Yes, you need at least one LoRaWAN gateway to provide radio coverage at your sensor locations. The module embeds its own Network Server, so you only need a gateway - no third-party LNS or cloud platform required. We can help you design the right architecture for your site.

Any LoRaWAN sensor can be connected: temperature, humidity, CO2, pressure, water level, flow meters, door/window sensors, GPS trackers, soil moisture, and thousands more. If it speaks LoRaWAN, it works.

The module is designed to handle thousands of devices. Performance depends on your Ignition server resources and data transmission frequency, but typical deployments support 10,000+ sensors.

Yes, you can create custom JavaScript payload decoders for any sensor. The module also supports built-in decoders for popular industrial sensor brands like Milesight, Tektelic, MultiTech, and Watteco.
