SenArch ARCH-1 Standard LoRaWAN Gateway¶
Welcome to the configuration and installation guide for the SenArch ARCH-1 Standard off-grid LoRaWAN Gateway. This guide helps you configure and install your SenArch ARCH-1 system through the Gateway UI, its web-based interface.
Make sure these docs match your gateway
These docs cover gateways running SenOS 2.0.x — the build with the web-based Gateway UI. To check, open the gateway's address in a browser: if you get a Gateway Login page, you are on SenOS (confirm the exact version under Dashboard → Gateway Info → OS Version).
If your gateway has no web UI and you configure it only over SSH, you are on the original build — switch to the Legacy documentation using the version menu at the top of the page.
