Configuring LoRa Serial Network Settings 

Select 'Driver > LoRa Network' from the Rubix Platform Sidebar;  Next select the `SERIAL NETWORKS` tab.  Here you will see the LoRa Network settings.

Configure `SERIAL NETWORKS` Settings

It is essential that the `SERIAL NETWORKS` settings are correctly configured for the LoRa Gateway to operate.  The `SERIAL NETWORKS` settings should be configured with values as follows:
Port: /data/socat/loRa1  (for a Rubix Compute 5)
Baud Rate: 38400
Stop Bits: 1
Parity: N
Byte Size: 8
Timeout: 5
The `SERIAL NETWORKS` settings should match the image below:
