# Getting started
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
## Controls
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
On joystick devices:
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
| Input | Does |
|
|||
|
|
| ----- | ---- |
|
|||
|
|
| **Up / Down** | Move through a list |
|
|||
|
|
| **Left / Right** | Switch home pages; change the value of a setting |
|
|||
|
|
| **Enter** | Open, select, confirm |
|
|||
|
|
| **Hold Enter** | Options for the selected item (a message, contact, channel…) |
|
|||
|
|
| **Back** | One step back; from a screen, back to the home screen |
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Lists wrap around at both ends. Any key wakes a dark screen without acting on it.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Keyboard devices use the same controls, from the arrow keys (or their Fn
|
|||
|
|
combinations), Enter and Esc. [Hardware](./hardware.md) has the key maps.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
> [!NOTE]
|
|||
|
|
> **Wio Tracker L2:** tap to open, hold for options, swipe sideways between
|
|||
|
|
> pages. The top button turns the screen off and on. The side button goes
|
|||
|
|
> back to the home screen; hold it and let go to mute or unmute the sound.
|
|||
|
|
> Holding the side button while pressing the top one takes a screenshot.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
## Home screen
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
The home screen is a row of pages. On joystick devices, **Left / Right** steps
|
|||
|
|
through them and **Enter** opens the one shown:
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Clock, Recent, Radio, Bluetooth, Advert, GPS, Sensors, Tools, Shutdown,
|
|||
|
|
Settings, Messages, Favourites, Map.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Settings › Home Pages sets their order and hides the ones you don't use;
|
|||
|
|
Settings and Messages are always shown.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
> [!NOTE]
|
|||
|
|
> **Wio Tracker L2:** pages you swipe between: favourite chats, the clock
|
|||
|
|
> (where it starts), a minimap, then the apps, six to a page. Hold an app to
|
|||
|
|
> arrange or hide them.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
## Connecting the phone app
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Every build serves the MeshCore app over **Bluetooth and USB**, one at a time:
|
|||
|
|
while Bluetooth is connected, USB is ignored. To use USB, disconnect Bluetooth
|
|||
|
|
first or turn it off on the device.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
The Bluetooth pairing PIN is shown on the Bluetooth home page until the phone
|
|||
|
|
is paired.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
> [!NOTE]
|
|||
|
|
> **Wio Tracker L2:** the PIN is under Settings › Bluetooth.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Everything you do on the device and in the app stays in sync: contacts,
|
|||
|
|
channels and messages are the same data.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
## Updating
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Download the new file from the [releases page](https://github.com/MarekZegare4/MeshCore-Solo/releases)
|
|||
|
|
and flash it the way you did the first time (see the [main README](../../README.md#flashing)).
|
|||
|
|
Settings, contacts and messages are kept.
|
|||
|
|
|
