Upgrade Your Lilygo Pager with a Relay (on/off switch)!

The Blackout Comms firmware (v3.1.3 or higher) automatically recognizes and uses the Sparkfun Qwiic Single Relay, if its attached properly! 

This allows you to use the pager as an off-grid texting/tracking device, but also as an experimental remote on/off switch!

If properly set up, you'll know the camera is recognized because you'll see the blue camera icon show up as it does in this pager screenshot.

If you haven't already, you'll need to install the Blackout Comms Pager firmware onto your Lilygo Pager. It's free if you're just using this thermal cam, and pretty easy to install.

The two red wires protruding from the back of the enclosure (after you've fully assembled) can be inserted into a circuit (check Sparkfun's docs for current limitations). The pager itself can open and close the circuit.

Remote Controlling the Pager

In the Pager's mesh settings, enable remote commands and any other device in your private cluster can also remotely open/cIn the Pager's mesh settings, enable remote commands and any other device in your private cluster can also remotely open/close the circuit by issuing a command to it.

 

Note: Be Careful!

If you connect the camera improperly (reversing polarity, shorting, etc) you may destroy the pager or camera! Don't do this unless you're experienced working with electronics. I'm not responsible if you mess up your pager!

Simplified instructions (see PDF for details):

  • 3D print the enclosure
  • Create a pin header/adapter for the Pager's expansion port (on top of the pager)
  • Plug together the relay & pager
  • Insert the Sparkfun relay into the enclosure
  • Attach the enclosure to the pager
