What are Key maps?

The Key Maps portion of the Admin Panel (found here: https://admin.taxicaller.net/admin/settings/dispatch.php) is tied to “mapping bluetooth key codes” for the TaxiCaller Driver App. This feature was originally designed to help drivers trigger the Driver App alarm in a threatening situation without having to press any buttons on their Android device and could instead more discretely trigger the alarm by pressing a button on a small Bluetooth device in their pocket.

How to set up:

  1. You will need a Bluetooth device
  2. Pair this Bluetooth device with the Android Driver App device.
  3. Once they are paired, go into the settings portion of the Driver App by pressing the cog-wheel button. Select “Debug bluetooth key codes.”
  4. By pressing a button on your bluetooth device, the Driver App tells you what bluetooth key-code the button you just pressed has.
  5. Now you simply edit the Key Maps portion in the Admin Panel and assign the keys you want to do the preferred task. For example, you could have a “raise volume” button on a bluetooth device “Accept” a job and the “decrease volume” button “Decline” a job.
