Controlling the mouse
Mouse mode
Once a device is connected by default it can send characters. But if you want to control it as a mouse you can enter the mouse mode. This is done with the morse command of .-.--
(configurable in userConfig.py
) and then the device can send mouse commands
NB: in iOS you need to make sure Settings -> Accessibility -> AssistiveTouch -> On.
Then to move the mouse use these commands
By default it will only move 5 pixels (default is changeable - see default_mouse_move_step
in user/config.py)
. If you wish the mouse to start moving in one direction and stop when you next send any switch press try using the REPEAT mode
. Repeat Mode
You would send the mouse movement you wish to do - THEN send the repeat command. Eg. Down - Repeat ( -- .)
- will repeat moving down and stop on the first press.
You can increase or decrease the speed of movement using some different options:
.-..--
Increase speed
.-..-.
Decrease speed
.--.-.
Set Speed to 1
.--.--
Set Speed to 5
Mouse buttons are:
.--

Left Click..--
Double Right click..-
Double Left click
Click and hold
