ReaderClock

Simply time - but different!

A clock, which shows the current time in form of a quote from a book.

Setup

• When the ReaderClock is powered in for the first time, it creates a Wi-Fi network
• You need to connect to this network and will get a configuration page
• On that page, press the button "Update Date and Time!"
• Now your ReaderClock has the same date, time and timezone as your phone
• You can always reconfigure this setting in the first five minutes after the ReaderClock is plugged in

Updating

• To update, you need to disconnect and reconnect the ReaderClock from power to activate the configuration mode
• Then you need to connect to its Wi-Fi hotspot like above
• On the configuration page, scroll down to "Firmware Update" and upload the new firmware
