Connecting the Weather Station Console to WiFi
To send weather data to these services you must connect your console to the
internet via Wi-Fi. The console can only operate using Wi-Fi when the external
power adapter is connected and plugged in!
Note: If you are testing the setup with the outdoor sensor package nearby
and indoor, you may want to consider connecting to Wi-Fi, but not yet
configuring any of the weather services. The reason is that while indoor
the temperatures and humidity recorded by the outdoor sensor, and as
reported to the weather service(s) will reflect indoor conditions, and not
outdoor conditions. Therefore, they will be incorrect. Furthermore, the
rainfall bucket may be tripped during handling, causing rain to register
while it may not actually have been raining. One way to prevent this is to
follow all instructions, except to use an incorrect password, on purpose!
Then, after final outdoor installation, come back and change the password
after clearing console history. That will start uploading to the services with
a clean slate.
Download mobile application
Wi-Fi configuration is done using your mobile device, either iOS or Android.
Start by downloading the "WS View" application from the Apple App Store or
Google Play store, as appropriate for your device.
Connect the console to Wi-Fi
Now activate the application you have downloaded on your mobile device. The
following instructions will generally show screen shots for the Android or iOS
application side by side.
