Script description

Nimbus turns your AWTRIX into the clock you already know, plus everything around it. One version for the TC001 (32×8), one for the TC002 (52×16).

The time and the calendar are an exact copy of the official clock, pixel for pixel, with the same settings: 12/24 h, leading zero, colon steady, blinking or pulsing, your colors, the week bar. On the TC001 that is the Time app; on the TC002, its clock faces sheet, ring, flap and big, with the tear-off sheet and the folding flap cards.

Where the calendar sits, a carousel shows what you choose, in the order you choose:

  • date: the official calendar
  • temp: the outdoor temperature, colored from blue to red with the weather
  • weather: one of 8 animated, built-in icons, day and night aware
  • room / humidity: over MQTT (Home Assistant friendly), or from the clock's own sensor on the TC001

On the TC002's big face, the time stays and the bottom row cycles instead, with small icons made for it and the weather's word in English, Español, Français, Português or Deutsch, or your own words.

Panels change with one of 8 transitions: wipe, fade, pixel morph, scroll up/down, slide left/right, or none.

Night mode shows the official clock in red. Turn it on by hand, between two hours or over MQTT, with an optional week bar, a pause of the app rotation and a night brightness. On the TC001, the time can also fill the whole display in bold digits, and the light sensor can set the brightness at night.

Weather comes from Open-Meteo: free, no account, no API key. Everything is built in, no icons to install. After installing, open the settings and set your latitude and longitude (the default is Paris).

A note on memory (TC001): Nimbus packs a lot into one script, so it is shipped minified to fit. If the clock says "not enough memory" when installing, updating or opening the settings, remove scripts you don't use (a disabled app still takes memory), restart the clock and try again. The TC002 has memory to spare.

Changelog

2.2

  • TC002: Temperature unit setting: clock setting, °C or °F. The TC002's web UI has no switch for the clock's own °C/°F setting, so Fahrenheit couldn't be chosen

2.1

  • TC001: Big time at night, the time in bold 6×8 digits across the whole display, without the week bar.
  • TC001: Auto brightness at night, the light sensor sets the brightness at night, within the clock's own range, and your own setting comes back in the morning.

2.0

  • Rebuilt from scratch: the clock and calendar are an exact copy of the official clock, with its settings (12/24 h, leading zero, AM/PM, colon modes, colors, week bar).
  • Carousel with date, temp, weather, room and humidity, in any order.
  • Room temperature and humidity from the clock's sensor or MQTT.
  • Night mode: the official layout in red, with an optional week bar, app rotation pause and night brightness.
  • TC002 version: the sheet, ring, flap and big faces, with the carousel in the sheet's place or on the big face's bottom row, and the weather's word in five languages or your own.
  • Minified to fit the TC001's memory.
  • Your location, weather refresh, date duration, transition, clock side, night hours and night MQTT topic carry over from 1.x. The other settings start from their defaults.

1.2

  • The degree sign is a solid dot instead of a ring.
  • With the clock on the right, it sits 1 px closer to the panel, centered on the week bar.
  • Night mode: the time moved 1 px left so it looks centered over the week bar.
  • Night mode: the last change wins between the Night mode setting and MQTT, and the state survives restarts.

1.1

  • New fade and morph transitions.
  • The panel digits are drawn by Nimbus from a copy of the firmware's font.

1.0

  • First release (TC001).
