Remote control page turn on Onyx

Pajamaman · 03-28-2019, 09:16 PM

Has anyone rigged up a hands free remote page turn controller on an Onyx.

I'm thinking of getting something like this: https://www.amazon.ca/Bluetooth-Remo...6Q4E6JQABKZ470

Apparently it will work with Moon+ reader. Anyone done this, and how does it work?

I've been using a remote for a while with Moon+ on a Likebook and assume it will work the same on the Onxy, which I don't have yet. I set it up in Moon+ for page turns with the volume control, which requires a remote that has that feature. The one I use is https://www.amazon.com/LZYDD-Wireles...gateway&sr=8-6

Not sure whether one with just a camera shutter will work.

What about this bluetooth remote?

Can the buttons be mapped in Boox?

I bought this one, but it only let's me go to previous page, not next page in moon reader. Do you know what moon readers setting would change this or do I need a different remote?

I could not get one like that to work. I use https://www.amazon.com/LZYDD-Wireles...gateway&sr=8-6 and it works great.

If you have trouble in the dark with the volume up/down, one of these on one side will help:

Hi Y'all,

I use a Nova, and bought this:
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...?ie=UTF8&psc=1

It is absolutely awesome. I missed having hardware page turn buttons, and now having this is even better.

I have these two:

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...?ie=UTF8&psc=1

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...?ie=UTF8&psc=1

The top one is a bluetooth ring clicker and charges via microusb cable. The bottom one is a bluetooth wireless presenter and uses one AAA battery. Both can use bluetooth and RF. They both work. I can use both of them to turn the pages forward or backward. I have found out that when I turn pages on the Boox Note 2 to read a book, a lot of times it is hard to do so. I end up having to do it a couple of times before the page turns to the next page or back. Not the case with a BT clicker or BT wireless presenter. I can set the Note 2 down and turn pages better. So very happy with both that I am keeping both of them.
