Extend M32 Functionality by using PC Software!
You can extend the functionality of the Morserino-32 by using add-on PC software, provided by 3rd parties:
- Training Software for M32, running in your browser (any OS), by Christof, OE6CHD
(runs on Opera, Chrome and Edge, not on Firefox or Safari)
- CW Trainer for Morserino by Enzo, IW7DMH
- Morserino Phrases Trainer by Tommy, OZ1THC
Other „extensions“:
>> Morserino Chat Server: Using the WiFi Transceiver mode, you can converse in Morse Code with other Morserino users across the globe (see video below).
>> QSO Bot by John, M0STQ - see https://qsobot.online/
Features of the Morserino-32 Pocket
Hardware
- Larger, high-contrast colour display (1.9" TFT) for improved readability!
- Tone generation and amplification via digital codec: resulting in a clean sine tone!
- No LoRa as standard – but comparable functionality nonetheless – see the section on software!
Software
- The firmware of the M32 Pocket is based on the same platform as its predecessors, meaning that operation and functionality are virtually
identical - Version 7.0, which will be released at the same time as the M32 Pocket, has a number of new features (and these functions are also
available for existing Morserino-32 devices after a simple firmware update: - An option to flip the display view by 180°: important for left-handed operation of the M32 Pocket.
- Now the 5,000 most common English words can be generated.
- An option to display the output on the display in CAPITAL LETTERS.
- Bluetooth keyboard output: this allows you to practice with VBand (a popular online practice tool) without an additional dongle, but also to use the Morserino as an input keyboard for your mobile phone, tablet or computer!
- The new ESP-NOW WiFi functionality enables Morserinos to communicate with each other without additional hardware (comparable to the LoRa functionality of older generations): peer-to-peer communication on 2.4 GHz, without an access point or router!
