WiFi LED Clock

Turn DataPix into a WiFi LED clock — live time and date, each in your choice of format, always in sync since the device gets time over the network. No API key, no code.

What you need

  • A DataPix, powered on and joined to your Wi-Fi (see Setup).
  • A time zone set in Network Time (see Setup).

Step by step

  1. Open the interface

    From a browser on the same network, open the device's IP address shown on the panel.
