TECP Gateway

Meshtastic gateway is just a normal point, it requires a internet connection. You can use this as a normal capture point or a dedicated gateway in the mode settings for the point.

Meshtastic device must have serial enabled and echo back:

meshtastic --set serial.enabled true --set serial.echo true

Meshtastic gateway device must be on the correct channel and have uplink enabled:

meshtastic --ch-set name ASN --ch-index 0 --ch-set channel_num 1 --ch-index 0 --ch-set psk <PSK> --ch-medfast --set lora.region EU_868 --set serial.enabled true --ch-set uplink_enabled true

Must also have MQTT enabled to push points to our or your own mqtt server for processing and shipping to each server:

meshtastic --set mqtt.enabled true --set mqtt.jsonEnabnled true --set mqtt.address mqtt.airsoftnorge.com:1883 --set mqtt.username "<your username>" --set mqtt.password "<your password>"

Setup options:

ASN-TAK Infrastructure

Capturepoints -> Meshtastic -> Gateway -> ASN-MQTT Server

  • Pro: Don't have to configure anything custom or setup node-red or mqtt yourself
  • Con: You might want things to behave differently.

Contact us on discord for access if you want to utilize the ASN-TAK servers.

Self hosted

Capturepoints -> Meshtastic -> Gateway -> External MQTT -> Node-Red combines information needed -> Send COTs to the game TAK servers.

  • Pro: Server is remotely accessible for game-admin purposes.
  • Con: 4 dollars a month.

Local

Capturepoints -> Meshtastic -> Gateway -> Internal MQTT -> Node-Red combines information needed -> Send COTs to the game TAK servers.

  • Pro: Don't need another server.
  • Con: cannot adjust anything without physical access.

MQTT Server

Mosquitto MQTT server, maintains the updates from each point.

You can setup your own or contact us on discord for access if you want to utilize the ASN-TAK servers.

Node-Red

Node-Red feeds points from the MQTT into the TAK servers.

Sorting for color, determining if the point is friendly, enemy or unknown based on server color.
