Cautions when building and using SkyWeather2
1) Keep all water away from the electronics and power supply at all times!
2) This is not a toy! Keep it out of reach of young children and pets.
3) SwitchDoc Labs assumes no liabilities in the use of this kit, beyond the refund of the purchase
price.

Full Open Source Python3 Software that you can Modify.
We provide the Python3 software all open source with the kit. The Pure Python software can be modified to
add new sensors, support new cloud software and connect up to your own projects and software.
Quick Start of your SkyWeather2 System
This manual assumes that you have completed the assembly and testing of your SkyWeather23 as described in
the “SkyWeather Assembly and Testing Manual”. If you haven’t completed the assembly and testing, go back
and complete it now. Your Pi is connected to your WiFi network.
The first thing to figure out is what your Raspberry Pi IP address is. Follow the procedures here:
