  • wiki: correct TX pairing gesture and setup AP, add buyer setup track The pairing instructions contradicted the firmware in ways that make setup fail. The BOOT button is only read during the 10s window that opens on reset or power-on, which we never mentioned, so the steps couldn't work on an already-running transmitter. Pairing fires on RELEASE between 2-5s; holding past 5s auto-triggers Wi-Fi update mode and past 15s wipes NVS, both previously undocumented. And we described pairing as "LED pulses cyan" when cyan is the update-mode colour — pairing blinks blue, then green. The setup AP was wrong too: it broadcasts as TankSync-XXXX, not TankSync-Setup-XXXX, and it's an open network. We told people to find a password on the OLED that was never printed there because it doesn't exist. Also corrected First Boot, which claimed an unpaired transmitter pulses cyan every 5s and stays awake. It doesn't - an unpaired unit runs the normal sleep cycle and gives no such signal. New pages for people who bought an assembled kit rather than building one. The wiki only ever documented the DIY path, and Home sent buyers to the shop page, which is a sales page, not instructions: Setup - Start Here, Install the Transmitter, Tank Calibration, Pairing a Transmitter, Connect to Cloud, App Overview, App Settings, Updating Firmware Sidebar regrouped into "I bought a kit" / "Daily use" / "Build it yourself" / "Reference" so the two audiences stop colliding.

  • docs: 2-up image layout on PWA-Walkthrough + Local-Web-UI; embed schematics in Wiring pages PWA-Walkthrough + Local-Web-UI now use <p align="center"><img width="38%"/> <img width="38%"/></p> pairs instead of single full-width images. Half the scrolling, natural visual pairing (light/dark variants, related sections together). Wiring-Reference-Hub + Wiring-Reference-Transmitter now embed the REV 2.1 schematic PNGs (already on main at hardware/pcb/) at 95% width, with high-res SVG + STEP-file links underneath.
