Burger Pager - portapack-mayhem/mayhem-firmware GitHub Wiki
[!NOTE] This app is currently in beta (
Syscall pager TX beta).
Burger Pager transmits FSK paging signals compatible with restaurant coaster pager systems. It allows sending a page to a specific pager unit by address, or scanning through a range of addresses automatically.
The default frequency is 433.920 MHz. Actual pager system frequencies vary by hardware — adjust the frequency field to match the target system before transmitting.
Settings
- Data (16 hex digits): The full 8-byte payload to transmit. The lower 16 bits (last 4 hex digits) represent the pager address. Default value:
44013B30303034BC. - Scan (checkbox): When enabled, the app increments the pager address by 1 after each successful transmission and immediately retransmits, stepping through addresses continuously. When disabled, the frame is transmitted once and stops.
Frame Format
Each transmission consists of a fixed 19-byte FSK frame:
| Bytes | Content |
|---|---|
| 0–7 | Preamble: 55 55 55 55 55 55 55 55 |
| 8–9 | Sync word: 2D D4 |
| 10 | Data length: 08 |
| 11–18 | Data payload (8 bytes, from the Data field) |
Modulation is FSK with a deviation of 5 kHz. Each frame is transmitted 32 times per press.
Settings Persistence
Settings are saved to tx_burger.ini.
