A good first step is to prepare both LoRa Shields. Attach the antenna, and ensure that the jumper shunts on J_DIO5, J_DIO2 and J_DIO1 are removed. We've just moved them to one side so they aren't bridging the jumper connection. Check the position of the other jumpers too.
The transmitter unit is the more involved of the two, but all the soldering is done on the Prototyping Shield to make it easier to reuse the parts.
Start by placing the Tactile Pushbuttons onto the shield, and soldering in place. Note the solder bridges along one edge- this simplifies our wiring, as the switches are connected internally.
Next, install the LED's, and solder in place. Note that the flats on the LED's is on the right, closest to the ICSP header. If the LED's are installed backwards, they will light up the wrong colour
The resistors are installed next. We found it easier to bend all the legs around first, then place the resistors. You can solder the resistors in place, but don't trim the legs yet, as we're going to use them to make some of the connections on the Prototyping Shield.
Note that the inner resistor legs are soldered onto the closest LED leg (which should be the side without the flat), and the outer legs of the resistors are run into each other to form a bus.
The resistor legs should be bent to the right to adjoin the next resistor, and the last leg taken to either the GND connection (top row) or the 5V connection (bottom row).
The final step is to take some offcuts of the WC6028's and some resistor legs (these are easier to handle as they don't have to be stripped, but you do have to be careful to make sure they don't short-circuit anything), and make the following wiring connections.
Note also that the bus we created earlier by bridging the pushbuttons is extended to the GND rail on the right of the Prototyping Shield. The wiring for the LED's might look a bit complicated, but it allows us to control each LED with just a single IO pin. The above pin allocations are also set by #defines in the sketch, so they can also be changed if you need to alter what pins are used.
To complete assembly of the transmitter unit, attach the LoRa Shield to the Uno, then attach the assembled Prototyping Shield onto the LoRa Shield.
There is no soldering needed for the receiver unit, just a set of six jumper leads. Plug the other LoRa Shield into the top of the other Uno, then make the connections between the LoRa Shield and the Relay Module as shown below. As for the transmitter, the below pin connections can be changed in the sketch.
The relays require 12V to operate, so when the LoRa Remote Relay is put in use, the receiver needs to be fed from a 12V supply through the DC jack of the Uno Board. You can still do testing from USB power, as the LED's on the relay board will light up, even with just 5V.
