I have configured a gateway setup and i can see the tags moving in the DRTLS web manager but now i want to send the command to the RPI which is acting as gateway through SSH to get the locations of all the tags in the uwb network .for now i want to bypass mqtt and just want to get the data of the tags by any command or script .
Hi @AYUSHY7
In PANS firmware the MQTT is the only one way how to communicate with the UWB network.
However the MQTT is quite easy to use from shell/scrips as it very popular. Look after some examples.

I was just curious to know the system more .I wanted to see if i send a command like les,lep to the BN which is mounted on the rpi ,will it be showing the active tag locations to me on the same tera term terminal ??? i am viewing this all on the minicom and then enter double time to enter shell mode then giving commands but they are not giving any data on the otehr hand if i nmp 3 then use these les lep command it shows me data on the minicom
Hi @AYUSHY7
no there is not such functionality on NB. It is purely a data bridge between UWB network and RPi. UART is too slow for that so it uses SPI.
If you only need to know the positions then there is one workaround - Put a tag to passive mode and run les command - it should return you positions for all tags in UWB range.

so i cant have the tag location data from the bridge node without using mqtt ?
is mqtt the only way to get tag location through bridge node/gateway ???
Hi @AYUSHY7
from the bridge the MQTT is the only one way how to get the data.

plz reply to upper thread where i posted the screenshot
Hi @AYUSHY7
in the API manual you can find the dwm_backhaul_xfer command + related description. It is super complex to make this work as you need precise timing to be able to transfer all the data in time. That is the reason why only the RPI 3B is supported. Any newer RPI is not fast enough to maintain the required timings.
We are not providing support for this command - it is too complex to implement it.
