Homebrew for Blink Sync Module

Blink synchronization module

Introduction

This DIY project contains tutorials and scripts for customizing the Blink synchronization module. This device is used for creating a bridge between Blink Cloud Services and Blink cameras but there is actually a powerful embedded Linux under the hood.

Modifications described here will allow one to:

  • Download videos automatically to a USB connected to the Sync Module.
  • Run Bling Viewer for any Mac/Linux/Windows in the local network.
  • Run scheduled tasks through scripts like Snooze and any other developed by the community
  • Use Sync Module as DLNA Media server, BitTorrent client and many others
  • Do the same things you can do with an OpenWRT Barrier Breaker 14.07

Before continuing, you will need basic knowledge of computers and a USB to TTL device:

USB to TTL

This is the one I use but any USB to TTL will work and are quite inexpensive 5~10 EUR.

Follow steps described below in order but remember:

These modifications may damage your SyncModule if not done properly. Proceed at your own risk
