Time, timezone setup
At default, InkWatchy will try to ques the timezone when syncing with wifi. It may not be accurate, so you may need to set it manually. Go to config.h
to the timezone section to edit it, then reflash. Read it carefully, because you may need to set the POSIX format instead of OLSON.
Wifi setup & Turning on wifi
Go to src/defines/confidential.h
and in WIFI_SSIDX
and WIFI_PASSX
put your wifi name and password. You can use many wifi network, up to 10. At default, both in demo and when recompiling the firmware your watchy will connect to a wifi network named hotspot
with password 12345678
. Remember the watchy supports only 2.4Ghz wifi's. Sometimes 2.4Ghz wifi's are described as "compatibility" mode.
After that, input other confidential values as open weather key, coin lib key etc. After that, flash your device
to trigger syncing, dependent on your configuration in config.h
(Not ON at default) connect your watchy to USB power. It will automatically sync after it detects it's charging, it can take a few seconds. Otherwise, trigger the sync manually like that:

Enabling books and vault
To enable books or vault, go to config.h
and enable BOOKS to 1 or VAULT to 1. Then recompile and upload
Then put your books and images inside resources/personal/books/
or resources/personal/vault/
respectively. For books use pdf or epub, for vault use png
after that, put it into the device, just like the picture below
Enabling weather
You need to edit confidential.h
longitude and latitude of your location, then reflash. You also need WEATHER_INFO
in config.h
enabled, but that's by default
Enabling other features
Read both config.h
and confidential.h
and enable / disable / modify the variables, then recompile
