#Environment Variables
##Required global variables
* GW_ID required
* GW_KEY required
  This gateway ID and gateway Key for TTN will be used to fetch the gateway's information form the TTN console. When SERVER_TTN is true, this will also be used to conenct and forward packets to TTN.

##Optional global variables
* GW_CONTACT_EMAIL optional - default an empty string
  The gateway owner's contact information. Will be overridden by the value from the TTN console.
* GW_DESCRIPTION optional - default an empty string
  A description of this gateway. Will be overridden by the value from the TTN console.
* GW_RESET_PIN - default 22
  The physical pin number on the Raspberry Pi to which the concentrator's reset is connected. See the [README](README.md) file for a description and a list of common values.
* GW_GPS optional - default False
  * If true, use the hardware GPS. 
  * If false, 
    use either fake gps if a location was configured in the TTN console, 
    otherwise try using fake gps with the reference location as set via environment variables, 
    otherwise don't send coordinates. 
* GW_GPS_PORT optional - default /dev/ttyAMA0
  The UART to which the hardware GPS is connected to.
* GW_REF_LATITUDE optional - default 0
  The latitude to use for fake gps if the coordinates are not set in the TTN console.
* GW_REF_LONGITUDE optional - default 0
  The longitude to use for fake gps if the coordinates are not set in the TTN console.
* GW_REF_ALTITUDE optional - default 0
  The altitude to use for fake gps if the coordinates are not set in the TTN console.
* GW_FWD_CRC_ERR optional - default false
  Forward packets with an invalid CRC.
* GW_FWD_CRC_VAL optional - default true.
  Forward packets with a valid CRC.
* GW_ANTENNA_GAIN optional - default 0.
  Set this to the dBd gain of your antenna. The dBd value is the dBi value minus 2.15dB, ie. dBd = dBi-2.15. This is used to reduce the TX power of the concentrator to stay within the legal limits.

##Server variables
All server variables are optional, but when a server is enabled, it is recommended to set all variables to configure it completely.
* SERVER_TTN optional - default true
  Should the gateway connect to the TTN backend
  
* SERVER_1_ENABLED optional - default false
* SERVER_1_TYPE - default "semtech"
* SERVER_1_ADDRESS
* SERVER_1_PORTUP - only when using type semtech
* SERVER_1_PORTDOWN - only when using type semtech
* SERVER_1_GWID - only when using type ttn
* SERVER_1_GWKEY - only when using type ttn
* SERVER_1_DOWNLINK - default false

* SERVER_2_ENABLED optional - default false
* SERVER_2_TYPE - default "semtech"
* SERVER_2_ADDRESS
* SERVER_2_PORTUP - only when using type semtech
* SERVER_2_PORTDOWN - only when using type semtech
* SERVER_2_GWID
* SERVER_2_GWKEY
* SERVER_2_DOWNLINK - default false

* SERVER_3_ENABLED optional - default false
* SERVER_3_TYPE - default "semtech"
* SERVER_3_ADDRESS
* SERVER_3_PORTUP - only when using type semtech
* SERVER_3_PORTDOWN - only when using type semtech
* SERVER_3_GWID
* SERVER_3_GWKEY
* SERVER_3_DOWNLINK - default false

## Note about boolean values

Use `true` and `false` as lower case words to enable or disable features via environment variables. Any other format will not be interpreted correctly.
