WiFi LED Weather Display
Current temperature and conditions for any city, updating on its own over WiFi. Two ways: the Weather (OpenWeatherMap) view with a free key, or the Weather (Open-Meteo) app with no key at all.
What you need
- A DataPix, powered on and joined to your WiFi (see Setup).
- A free OpenWeatherMap API key — or nothing, with Weather (Open-Meteo).
Step by step
-
Open the setup page
From a browser on the same network, open the address shown on the panel.
-
Add a View → Weather (OpenWeatherMap)
Go to Views → New view. On the Add a View page, under Weather & nature, pick Weather (OpenWeatherMap).
-
Paste your key and search a city
Paste your OpenWeatherMap key, type the city and pick the match. DataPix remembers the key for next time; change it later in Accounts & API keys.
-
Background animation
The view starts with Clouds and Sun drifting along the top edge. Pick any other scene, background, pattern or effect, or None — the preview plays right in the dialog.
-
Arrange and save
Press Add. City, temperature, conditions and humidity arrive as separate values — move and recolour anything, then Save.
No key? Use Weather (Open-Meteo)
Under Weather & nature there's also the Weather (Open-Meteo) app: search a city and it's done — no account, no key. It shows the city, temperature and sky with an icon that changes with the weather, plus wind and humidity if you want them. How it works →
