Congratulations on having acquired a PocketCW2. Let's get you started right away! These are the steps you should follow to set up your device for the first time.

  1. Unpack your PocketCW2.
  2. Install the PocketCW2 application on your phone. You can find it in the App Store or Google Play.
  3. Set up the Wi-Fi connection:
    1. Power on your PocketCW2—it will set up an access point called "PocketCW_SN" (where SN is your PocketCW2's serial number).
    2. Using your phone, connect to the access point (if it takes more than 2 minutes for you to connect, the access point will be automatically shut down—please power off/on the PocketCW2 again).
    3. Launch a web browser and connect to pocketcw.com.
    4. Select "config", fill in your access point details, and check "connect to access point".
    5. Press "apply"—the PocketCW2 will reboot and try to connect to your Wi-Fi network.

    You can access this configuration window in the future using the same steps, should you need to find out the IP address assigned to the PocketCW2 by your network.

  4. Turn on the battery.
  5. …and that's it! You are ready to go. All that is left for you to do now is open the PocketCW2 app, check it's receiving data, and change any settings you deem necessary; sit back, and relax while the PocketCW2 monitors the weather conditions for you 🙂
