Tracked Configuration when managing device channels is disabled #198

Open mattronix opened 6 months ago

mattronix commented 6 months ago

When i disable ATAK Forwarder's ability to configure channels and manage the mesh device if i try to create a tracker it overwrites the channel info of the mesh device i want to use as a tracker.

My expectations (probably wrong):

A. It would take the primary channel of my device since ive told it not to change channel settings on the device.

B. I would have to manually set some configuration options on the device i want to use as tracker.

For option B checked docs did not find anything for it.

Thank you very much curious what im doing wrong and thanks for building one of the coolest projects ive seen in a long time!

I like the idea of writing to tracker w/ ATAK Forwarder's device management disabled just setting part of the configuration (name, shortName, maybe position report interval). I'll consider this for the next release.
