Web management
After opening the Web page of the ESP32PP you'll be able to do some basic functions with your PortaPack.
You can check the connection between your Web browser and ESP32PP and the connection between ESP32PP and PP. If you see "WS Connecting..." then the Wifi may be disconnected, and your web browser is trying to connect to the ESP. If you see "PP not connected to ESP", then ESP can't communicate with your PortaPAck. Check if it is powered up, and connected to the OTG port of your ESP. You can also try to restart PortaPAck.
If everything is connected you'll see the screen of your PP. The screen is refreshing on click, or with the control buttons or with the manual refresh button. You can turn this feature off.
You can click on the image, that will emulate a click on your PP. This way, you can manage it.
Next to the screen image, there are the controls you have on PP. They have the same function.
There is also a sensor data display interface. If you connected a GPS or other sensors to the ESP, you'll see the main data from those. For example, the Latitude / Longitude, Temperature, Heading, Satellites GPS module sees + uses. Here you can open the File Manager.
In the File Manager you can browse PP's SDcard. You can upload and delete files too. If you uploaded a new PP build, you can flash it from the file browser with a click! This is a fast and fully wireless way of upgrading your PP.
On the top right part of the webpage, there is a Gear icon. That will open the Settings of your ESP32PP. You can upgrade the firmware of your ESP32PP with the OTA page, that is linked from the bottom of the settings page.
