WiFi LED Calendar Display

What you need

• A DataPix, powered on and joined to your WiFi (see Setup).
• A public .ics link — e.g. Google Calendar's Public address in iCal format (Settings → your calendar → Integrate calendar), or a team, school or holiday feed.

Step by step

1. Open the setup page

   From a browser on the same network, open the address shown on the panel.

   

2. Add a View → Calendar (.ics feed)

   Go to Views → New view. On the Add a View page, under News & calendar, pick Calendar (.ics feed).

   

3. Paste the .ics link

   Paste the calendar's public .ics address into Calendar URL.

   

4. Background animation

   The view starts with Confetti twinkling around the edges. Pick any other scene, background, pattern or effect, or None — the preview plays right in the dialog.

5. Arrange and save

   Press Add. The event (Next: …) and its date and time are separate values. Saving also adds the feed to your data sources.

   

Good to know

• The device checks the feed every 30 minutes and shows the earliest event that hasn't started.
• The feed becomes one of your 8 custom data sources.
• All-day events have no time; change the date value's format to {value:t%m/%d} to show just the date.
• Only the first 24 KB of the file is read, repeating events aren't expanded, and a time without a timezone counts as UTC. A small calendar with just the events you want works best.
