Parsing MTDOT-EVB Data in Node-Red
We are demoing a MTCDT-H5 and are attempting to Parse MTDOT-EVB data in Node-Red to a msg.payload.
Has anyone done this?

Here is a copy of code I use in a function node to parse data from the EVB using the data structure defined in the EVB code. Just copy this code to a function node in Node Red and make sure your lora node is set to binary mode. /media/uploads/falingtrea/evbparser.txt

Patrick, Here's a complete Node Red flow with the following structure:
LoRa Input Node -> Function Node -> Debug Node
Note that the LoRa Input Node must have the Data Type field set to "Bytes" and the Debug Node should have the Output field set to "complete msg object."
