Install & use

Let AI help you install

Enter a key and give the task to your local AI. AI handles installation, previews and device discovery.

Connect NOTE and hand over to AI

Just an API Key; AI can find the MAC

AI uses the key to list your devices; you only need to confirm which one to use.

Open the cloud platform to get a key ↗
How do I get it now?

Sign in to the cloud platform by QR code → use Scan in the mini program's Me tab → open Open API on the website → create an API Key.

A shorter path is planned: Get API in the mini program menu. This entry is not live yet.

Codex on your computer can install dependencies and run programs locally.

After copying, start a new chat in Codex on your computer and paste the task.

Specify device and ink-card slot (optional)

Leave it blank if unknown. AI can retrieve it from the official device list, without searching the device menus.

These are image slots 1–5. Before the first push, AI confirms the target device and slot to avoid overwriting existing content.

The Key is only saved in a local connection file and is not included in the AI task.

After installation, check this

The device shows the expected Synology Photos Sync screen and continues to work after repeated updates.

AI generates a preview first, then confirms the target device and first update with you. It reports installation location, verification results and how to start again. Continue in the same conversation if anything goes wrong.

NOTE4 with original firmware · ZECTRIX Cloud API · Synology NAS / Python

  1. Prepare the photo source

    Run the program on a NAS or a computer with access to the photo directory. Prepare the library path, read permission and your ZECTRIX API credentials.

  2. Configure local photo processing

    Install Python and imaging dependencies using the project instructions, then select the device, photo directory and push settings. Keep your photo library and account credentials out of public repositories.

  3. Check one photo first

    Check photo selection and monochrome conversion locally before pushing to the device and setting a schedule. Current install commands and directory rules have not been checked in this site.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need to upload every NAS photo?

The project selects photos and pushes rendered images to the device. Check the current configuration for the exact scan, read and upload scope.

Do I need the 16-Gray Gallery firmware?

This listing covers cloud-API photo sync while retaining original firmware. It is separate from the 16-Gray Gallery workflow that replaces firmware.
