Initial Power Up
Upon startup, the WeMos will try to connect to the last Wireless Access Point
that it was connected to. If it fails to connect then it will broadcast it
’
s own AP
with the name
“
TwoTubeClockAP
”
.
Connect to the AP with a laptop or mobile device (phone or tablet).
You should be directed automatically to a captive portal. If not then point your
browser to the IP address 192.168.4.1 and the configuration screen should be
displayed.
It should look similar to this:
Select
‘
Configure WiFi
’
and choose your AP from the list of those found.
Enter the WiFi password if needed then select
‘
Save
’
.
The Wemos will restart and connect to your network.
This activity can be monitored using a USB cable connected to the WeMos and
the Serial monitor (9600bd) of the Arduino IDE or similar tool.
Once running you should see the clock status giving details of what is being sent
to the tubes etc.
This can be done either with the WeMos mounted on the clock PCB or with the
WeMos removed and in complete isolation.
