New to EleksTube - Tried this on the xCool EleksTube IPS with no luck

[eddieLeonard427]

I was recently gifted an xCool Elekstube IPS clock which looks exactly like the IPS v1 best I can tell. Was able to successfully create a backup and tried using the install from the webpage. Looked like everything completed successfully, but the clock would no longer boot. All tubes were complete off.

Could be this isn't compatible or could be something I'm doing wrong. Like the title says, I'm new to these clocks. Was able to successfully restore the original firmware. Really hoped this would work because I can't find any way to configure the weather portion at all. Project looks really cool though!

Hi. Post some pictures of the clock, especially taken directly from above so I can see the PCB? Also, did you install it with the installer here? If so, that allows you to configure the wifi connection and you should be able to go to http://elekstubeips.local/ and see the web page that configures it (just to confirm that the firmware installed correctly).

Sorry for the delay in responding. Yes, I ran the installer from the link above. Full install with erase. After completion all screens are completely black and do not respond. The webpage to configure wifi does not load. Should note, I'm on Windows 11. Have not tried from my Macbook.

That looks like a v2 board. I added the v2 firmware to the web site here. Try that.

That did it! Thank you!
