Quick Start (Onboarding)

Setting up your Zenso frame requires zero coding and takes less than two minutes.

1. Power On

Turn on the power switch located on the rear panel. The e-paper display will cycle through an initial waveform wipe and present the onboarding screen.

2. Connect to Wi-Fi

On your smartphone, open your Wi-Fi settings:

1. Connect to the temporary hotspot broadcast by the frame (SSID: Zenso-Setup).
2. A captive portal will appear automatically.
3. Select your home 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi network and enter your network password. (Note: 5 GHz-only bands are not supported by the 802.11 b/g/n radio).

3. Scan the Pairing QR Code

Once connected to the internet, the frame fetches device authorization and displays an authentic pairing QR code on its 7.3” screen. Scan it with any smartphone camera to open the Zenso management portal.

4. Select Your Widgets

In the portal, pick what to display:

• Family Photo Albums: Personal memories and curated artwork with automatic orientation and e-ink color dithering.
• Ambient Weather: Live conditions, forecasts, and barometric trends.
• Calendar & Agenda: Google Calendar or CalDAV events.
• Bento Grids: Multi-widget layouts configured without writing a line of code.

5. Enjoy Calm Living

Your frame will update quietly according to your preferred schedule (e.g., hourly during the day, asleep overnight) and immediately enter ultra-low power deep sleep (< 15 µA) between refreshes, preserving battery and home tranquility.
