LGL Studio VFD Clock VCK CCCP 2023-2024 User Manual
First of all, thank you for ordering the VFD Clock produced by LGL STUDIO.
To enhance your experience with the VFD Clock, please feel free to contact us at any time if you encounter any issues via email (mingyang.yang94@gmail.com).
Please note: The configuration and content of the VCK CCCP 2023 and 2024 models are the same. The 2023 model clock has a black protective film around the screen, and the acrylic panels come with transparent protective films on both sides, which can be removed according to your preference. (The clock looks even more stunning without the protective film.)
After powering on, you will see a countdown of 10 seconds on the screen, followed by the message “Hello.” You can then start the configuration.
WiFi name: VFD_Clock_AP (Compatible with both iOS and Android devices)
Note: When you have multiple LGL VFD Clocks connected to the same WiFi network, please set each clock individually while ensuring that the other clocks are powered off during the setup process. Once you have configured each clock, they can all be powered on simultaneously and will operate normally.
If you want to reconfigure the clock but cannot find the WiFi network or access the configuration page, please press and hold SET2. The screen will display the IP address, such as 192.168.XXX.XXX. While connected to the same router, you can enter this IP address into your browser's URL bar to access the configuration page. For example, on the screen, you might see "192 1," where "1" simply represents the order in which you need to input the numbers. For instance, it could display as "192 1 XXX2 XXX3 XXX4."
If your time zone is not accurate, or the time is not accurate after encountering WIFI timing.
Please input the correct time zone in DST.
For example, if your time zone is -6 and you need to speed up 1 hour, then your DST start time will be -5 and your DST end time will be -6.
And make sure you enter the starting and ending rules with the first letter capitalized.
For example:
DST Start Rule:Apr.First.Tue.2
DST End Rule:Oct.Second.Tue.2
