TapTap Firmware for MeshCore

TapTap Firmware is a specialized build of MeshCore designed for tracker-style devices like the Seeed Studio T1000-E and WisMesh Tag. It introduces enhanced messaging capabilities and specific button interactions tailored for headless operation (devices without screens).

Key Features

🔘 Button Controls & Modes

Since these devices lack screens, interactions are handled via the main user button and LED feedback.

• Single Click:
  • Sends an Advert signal to the mesh.
  • Helper LED blinks the current time in Morse Code.
• Double Click: Enter Canned Message Mode.
  • Single Click: Cycle through the 8 preset messages.
  • Long Press: Send the selected canned message.
  • Note: Buzzer pattern will indicate the selected message index like the binary.
• Double Click (again): Enter Morse Code Input Mode.
  • Use the button to tap out your message in Morse Code.
  • Long Press: Send the composed message.
  • Auto-exit: If no action is taken for 10 seconds, the device will automatically exit this mode.
• Triple Click: Toggle GPS functionalities on/off to save power.
