Pre-shipment diagnostics and ESP32 Quick Start firmware

Loaded ESP32-based products are prepared before shipment so customers have a clear first setup path instead of receiving a blank board.

Pre-Shipment Diagnostics
Checked before the order goes out

Before a Loaded product ships, WestTech Home Automation performs a basic diagnostic check on the installed ESP32 path. This helps confirm the device powers on, boots correctly, and is ready for the customer setup process.

Quick Start Firmware
Installed for easier first setup

Loaded ESP32-based products ship with WestTech Home Automation ESP32 Quick Start firmware installed. It is designed to make the device easier to find, connect, and verify on your network before you upload your own project firmware.
