Readout for BARANI_PWS

An innovative PWS appearing developed & produced by BARANI.
Has data communication through SigFox or LoraWAN.
Has a data-interface from those 2 networks [which is
described here with some basic payload-decoders].
Variation which is possible:
- Main/Basic unit has temperatur, humidity, pressure and light
- Optional measurement of wind
- Optional measurement of rain
Challenge:
who can make a script that uses such payload decoder to feed related virtual devices in Domoticz?
With minimal amount of (simple) settings, because not all meteo-buds are programmers.

You can already use the TTNMQTT module that connect your Domoticz and The Things Network which a is a LoRa based network.
If there is a LoRa gateway nearby your location that is connected or interlinked with the TTN network, your PWS can send its data through that network.
There is already a payload encoder available for TTN for these devices
If no LoRa gateway nearby, you can setup one yourself with relatively cheap hardware either DIY or off-the-shelf.

@kiddigital
Sure a payload
encoder is available in the PWS, because for the Lora-version BARANI themselves are using that channel of communication towards their servers.
However, the requested solution (next to BARANI) is to get a payload
decoder linked with an
interface into Domoticz.

Or misunderstanding your response?

Look at the TTNMQTT module
https://www.domoticz.com/wiki/TTNMQTT
Once your Barani is connected (over Lora) to the TTN network, you can get the data via the TTNMQTT module into Domoticz
And TTN offers the ability to run custom decoders on a payload BEFORE it gets picked up by for example Domoticz...
Hope the above is more clear.

The present weather invites to revisit 'parked' projects …….
Old thread, but for understanding have to step back to the point previously stopped.
Looking in Wiki for TTN combined with MQTT, the requirement pops up that CayenneLPP to be used for datatransport:
yet another protocol on the route ….
Reading the wiki, see an LPP-example almost for a weatherstation, but how to add the info from a raingauge and from an anemometer, which are ‘normal’ components for a typical weatherstation?
