3. Setup

3.1 Initial Charging

Before first use, ensure the watch is fully charged. Connect the watch to a power source using one of the provided USB cables. The charging status is indicated by an LED:

• Red LED: Indicates the device is currently charging.
• Green LED: Indicates the battery is fully charged.

Note: While there are two USB ports, only one should be used for charging at a time.

4.2 Wi-Fi Deauther Functionality

The Deauther Watch V4 can perform various secure tests on 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi networks. This functionality is based on the ESP8266 module.

1. Connect to the Device Hotspot: Power on the watch. It will create a Wi-Fi hotspot named "PWNED" (default password: "deauther"). Connect your computer or smartphone to this hotspot.
2. Access Web Interface: Open a web browser (e.g., Chrome) and navigate to http://192.168.4.1.
3. Scan for Networks: On the web interface, go to the "Scan" page and initiate a scan for available Wi-Fi networks. Wait for 10-15 seconds for the scan to complete.
4. Select Target: From the list of scanned networks, select your desired target for testing.
5. Perform Attack: Navigate to the "Attack" page and select the type of test you wish to perform (e.g., Deauthentication). Start the attack.

4.3 Bad USB Functionality

The Bad USB functionality is powered by the Atmega32u4 microcontroller, pre-flashed with the Arduino Leonardo bootloader. This allows the watch to emulate a keyboard or other USB devices to execute commands on a connected computer.

1. Connect to PC: Connect the watch to your computer using the designated USB port for Bad USB operations. This is typically the port highlighted in the product images for Bad USB use.
2. Execute Commands:
   • Pressing the DP9 button will execute a pre-programmed command, typically opening a command prompt window.
   • Pressing the DP10 button will execute another pre-programmed command, typically opening Notepad.
3. Custom Programming: The device can be programmed with custom Bad USB scripts using the Arduino IDE.

6. Troubleshooting

• Device not powering on: Ensure the battery is charged. Connect to a USB power source and check for the red charging indicator.
• Cannot connect to Wi-Fi hotspot: Verify the hotspot name is "PWNED" and the password is "deauther". Ensure the watch is powered on and Wi-Fi functionality is active.
• Bad USB commands not executing: Confirm the watch is connected to the PC via the correct USB port for Bad USB. Ensure the Arduino Leonardo bootloader is correctly flashed and no other programs are interfering.
• Wi-Fi scan not detecting networks: Ensure the external antenna is securely connected. The ESP8266 only supports 2.4 GHz networks; ensure target networks are within this frequency.
• Short battery life: Ensure the battery is fully charged before use. Avoid using both USB ports for charging simultaneously.

7. Maintenance

• Cleaning: Use a soft, dry cloth to clean the watch. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.
• Storage: Store the watch in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
• Firmware Updates: Periodically check the official AURSINC or DSTIKE resources for firmware updates to ensure optimal performance and access to new features.
• Battery Care: To prolong battery life, avoid fully discharging the battery frequently. Charge the device regularly, even if not in active use.
