Add LTE to Skynode S

It is possible to add LTE connectivity to Skynode S using an external hardware part. Here's how.

PreviousBasic Vehicle IntegrationNextAI Node

Last updated 5 days ago

Auterion is not providing any of the external hardware parts listed in this page.

Case #1 - Data Link module connected to USB 2

Required parts

D-Link 4G LTE USB Adapter

D-Link DWM-222

Part number: DWM-222, DWM-222/R Product Link: https://www.dlink.com/de/de/products/dwm-222-4g-lte-usb-adapter

USB-C male to USB-A female Adapter

It can have either a straight or a 90-degree USB-C connector.

Procedure

  1. If you don't have it yet, create an Auterion Suite account following the documentation at this link.

  2. Connect the LTE USB Adapter to Skynode S over USB-C using the adapter.

  3. If you used Auterion Mission Control (AMC) on your ground station in the past, make sure to set the toggle "Clear all settings on next start" before stating AMC again

  4. With the data link connected to both Skynode S and the ground station, open AMC from the ground station. Make sure that everything is powered.

  5. From now on you should be able to follow the documentation at this link to activate your Skynode S into the Auterion Suite.

Case #2 - No Data Link module connected to USB 2

Required parts

D-Link 4G LTE USB Adapter

Part number: DWM-222, DWM-222/R Product Link: https://www.dlink.com/de/de/products/dwm-222-4g-lte-usb-adapter

JST-GH 7 pins to USB-A female Adapter

You would need to make a custom cable following the USB 2 Skynode S connector pinout:

USB2 host mode

5, 6, 7

GND

(One pin mandatory, multiple optional)

Procedure

  1. If you don't have it yet, create an Auterion Suite account following the documentation at this link.

  2. Connect the LTE USB Adapter to Skynode S over USB 2 using the JST-GH 7 pins to USB adapter.

  3. Connect Skynode S to the laptop over USB-C.

  4. Power Skynode through the ESC connector to provide power to the LTE USB Adapter.

  5. If you used Auterion Mission Control (AMC) on your laptop in the past, make sure to set the toggle "Clear all settings on next start" before stating AMC again

  6. Open AMC from the laptop.

  7. From now on you should be able to follow the documentation at this link to activate your Skynode S into the Auterion Suite.
