Furrtek's ESL blaster how to connect to your app
Opened this issue · 1 comments
Cant figure out how to connect the esl blaster to the app. It connects to Furreks app but i cant seem to figure out his app. Yours seems much better. You also noted that he updated the app so his esl blaster will work. Just trying to figure it out. Thanks
Hey, the PricehaxBT app will not work with the ESL Blaster as this project relies on Bluetooth connection only and you need to build the dongle as described in the readme. The schematics and Arduino program are in the dongle folder.
If you're not familiar with electronics and you want to use the ESL Blaster but you're having trouble with Furrtek's app, I would suggest to open an issue on his repo to explain what you can't figure out.
I remember that the UI is different but the core features are the same as PricehaxBT. After the ESL Blaster is connected, you basically have to scan the ESL barcode, open an image and transmit it or you can change ESLs page for a certain duration without scanning any barcode (see details on his article for more information).
