QLOCKWORK
An advanced firmware for a DIY "word-clock".
******************************************************************************

Qlockwork is an ESP8266 (NodeMCU or WeMos D1 mini) firmware (under GPL license) for a so called "word-clock",
initially implemented by ch570512 (thanks Thorsten) and evolved by bracci.

The clock adjusts the time and date once every hour via NTP with a time server on the Internet.
If an RTC is installed, the time of the ESP is also set from the RTC via the SyncProvider.

At startup the clock performs a short self test.
The sequence of the colors should be: red, green, blue and white. If not, your LED driver setup is wrong.
The clock also shows the local IP address it received via DHCP.
Use this address in a browser to access the clocks web site to set it up.

WiFi manager: If the clock can not connect to any WLAN at startup, it turns on an access point(AP).
Connect a mobile phone or tablet to the AP and enter the WLAN credentials. A white "WiFi" is shown on the clock.
On success there are three short beeps and "WiFi" will be green.
If no WLAN is connected or the timeout has expired, there is a long beep and "WiFi" turns red.
After the WLAN timeout the clock works without NTP but you can still control it via its AP.
Without WLAN the clock uses the optional RTC to set the time or if no RTC is present has to be set manually.
In either ways the clocks IP is shown as a textfeed.

WPS: First press the WPS button on your WLAN router, then press the mode button on the QlockWiFive for more than 
5 seconds. While keeping the menu button pressed, don't get confused about the mode first increments (e.g. seconds),
then after 2s jumps to settings and only after 5 seconds "WPS" is shown in blue color on the clock display. Release
the button and wait. On success "WPS" will turn green. At failure it turns red.

Events can be shown at a certain repetition rate (every 5/15/30/60 minutes) on a particular day of the year as an 
animation (e.g. a firework) followed by a textfeed. Up to 8 events can be configured through the web interface. 
Go to settings (gear icon) -> events (birthday cake icon). You can set a text and color as well as an animation
and the desired repetition rate for every event.

Up to 30 animation files (examples in folder /data) can be stored on the file system to be selected and
played on events. Code snippets and files used from manfred-hofmann (thanks Manfred).

Updates of the firmware could be uploaded via USB, OTA or the clocks webserver.
You will find more help and information on how to configure and compile the firmware in "Readme.md" in the zip-archive.
You will also find a circuit diagram, a partslist and some pictures in the "/misc" directory.
All sensors, the RTC and the buzzer are optional.
The clock can run even with an ESP8266 module only.

Warning:    Do not power up the clock from USB only.
            This would blow up the ESP or even the USB port because of high power demand of the LED stripe.
            Always use an external 5V powersupply with at least 3A.

Disclaimer: Qlockwork uses lots of third party libraries.
            We can not guarantee the integrity of these libraries.
            You use the Qlockwork firmware at your own risk.
