Re: Ebay Wifi Relay boards
mm i did pay for some software..
I see only the standard webgui i think...
Need some dirext http acces to th pins..
The sensor:
https://www.google.nl/search?q=dht+sens ... BMAQsAQIRQ
How the reflash with Easeasy?
What pins do i need to use?
And is the easpeasy software working with this board?

If yes, you have also loaded as default the demo program for the board, with a web relay interface. When you reboot the ESP module, you will see a blink on the blue led and after few seconds another set of blinks. that means that your default program was launched and you can access the Relay Command interface.
Also in the files folder you have the scanbus.bas program utility that will help you to work with extra I2C bus devices that you can connect directly on the nEXT Bus connector.
You can use it as it is or you can upload ESPEasy on it, it's working very well with both.
For programming you need to use the programming header on the left.
For any specific related help, if you contact me directly I will be more than happy to help you.

Re: Ebay Wifi Relay boards
I can confirm that the Linknode R4 is working great with ESPEasy. I bought one a few days ago and immediately flashed it with ESPEasy (4096 flash size).
To get started easily, i have posted which GPIO belongs to which relay and such here: https://gathering.tweakers.net/forum/li ... 3#49734053 and also some commands on how to control the relays with MQTT.

"Too expensive" comparing to what? Cheap China Boards available on Ebay and sold under the "sell-and-forget-about" strategy? It's a Apples vs. Oranges comparation.
Proper testing, support, software examples and tutorials, all come with a price. Similar boards are in the $100+ range.
If you want it cheaper, you can just order it without a full programmed and tested ESP8266 and add yours on arrival. It will be just $32.98. Same if you want to use it with RPi, ARM or whatever, without ESP8266.
And yes, it's not "free shipping" as it not coming from China. But can be on your table in less than a week, especially if you are in EU. Without any Customs taxes, VAT and any other fancy things that might hit your pocket extra at arrival.
"Cheap" is comming with a price all the time.
Happy breadboarding,
TJ.
Well, that might be true or not.
But if that is really tested, why didn't the manufacturer notice, that the used relays are not designed for european mains voltage?
Take a near look ath the relays: 125V~ maximum! I would not use that module for home automation switching mains voltage.
If something goes wrong and it gets on fire your insurance might have a word for it....... "No!"

I try to flash the latest esp firmware on the board..
I try to flash the Linknode R8 with the flashtool, no luck at all.
Wil you please tell me the pins that i need to use for the flashmode.
Is there a jumper setting?
Or perhaps a How to or a movie?
Try a lot of pins on the linknode R8 only get no writing on the board.

i can confirm it works on the R8.
- Disconnect power from the module.
- The header "J1" has three pins, G, Tx and Rx. These shoud be connected to the programmer cable/adaptor accordingly.
Some manufacturers are not quite clear with these, so if it does not work, try swapping Rx and Tx.
- The second header has pins GND , DIO0 and 3,3V. A jumper is set to DIO0-3,3V for normal use (start firmware on chip).
Set this jumper to GND-DIO0, this activates the boot loader for flashing new firmware when starting the ESP.
- Now start the flash process on your computer and immediately power up the ESP on the Linknode.
- after flashing set the jumper back to DIO0-3,3V and power off and back on after a few seconds.
Hope that helps

Re: Ebay Wifi Relay boards
@ Shardan.
THANKS!!!
This was what i need... the jumper i mist.....
Is there perhaps als a free gpio where i can put a DHT on?
Or perhaps the extra 9 switch...?
I mean is there a gpio on the board that is not in use for the 8 relais.
And where i can put on a other sensor
Thanks again!!

Re: Ebay Wifi Relay boards
Hello Dylantje,
on the manufacturers webside there is a list of the used GPIO's:
Website: http://linksprite.com/wiki/index.php5?t ... controller
According to that list the GPIO's 2 and 9 should be unused.
So it is possible to solder a wire to one of these GPIO's for connecting a DHT.
Another way to connect a DHT easily, e.g. for testing (Didn't try that myself but it should work):
When ESPEasy is flashed and running, you may switch off the serial port:
- double check that the ESP is working properly with the firmware!
- open the R8's webpage
- go to --> Tools --> Advanced
- uncheck the "Enable Serial Port" box.
The serial port uses GPIO1 (Tx) and GPIO 3 (Rx).
Then you may connect a DHT to GND, GPIO and 3,3V direectly at the pin headers.
(Don't forget the pullup resistor 10K from 3,3V to the data/GPIO pin).
This allows to connect a DHT without soldering wires to the ESP chip on the board.
Remember that this makes impossible diagnosing the ESP via serial port.
It might be possible to connect a DHT even to the GPIO0 (DIO0) header.
Definitely be carefull and test that before going live for a reason:
I'm not sure if the DHT gives "low" or "high" at startup so this may lead into
booting into flash mode permanently. Not dangerous: If you switch off the device
at that point it just does nothing, but it should be tested thoroughly:
- Connect a DHT to GPIO0 (don't forget the pullup resistor 10K from 3,3V to the data/GPIO pin).
- Switch off and back on several times, check if the webpage is alive and the device works every time you restart.
Advantage: You don't loose the serial port so reflashing and diagnosis if necessary it's easy to do.
Hope that helps

Re: Ebay Wifi Relay boards
Thanks!!!
The uncheck the serial.
And the on gpio1 is working great!!!
1 thing..
When i power off and then power on..
There is 1 relay clicking on.. GPIO 10
when i use this board with lights, all the lights are off with power up.
Only GPIO 10 not..
Do you perhaps a solution for that?

Re: Ebay Wifi Relay boards
Hello Dylantje,
hm... not out of the box.
Check if the GPIO is set to default boot state:
- Open the webpage of the R8
- Go to "Hardware"
- Check the Setting of "Pin mode 10 (D12)", it should read "Default" usually.
It might help if you set it to "Output low". This says, that the GPIO is an output and should be set to "low" on bootup.
This is limited to bootup - if something inside the ESPEasy sets the GPIO10, this won't help.
Please check if the On/Off function is still working after this setting.
If that does not help there is a somewhat crude workaround.
Use a rule that switches off the GPIO10 at startup. This might make the GPIO10 switch on for a moment and then switch off.
- Open the webpage of the device.
- go to --> Tools --> Advanced
- scroll down and check the "Rules" box and click "submit".
- go to the new appearing "Rules" tab
- put the following code into the text box:
That switches off GPIO10 at boot.

Shardan

I must admit that I really cannot understand based on what facts you can state that the relays type from above are DEFINITELY NOT approved and not working properly on EU 240VAC.
I have on my desk the LEG-1A-12F Relays:
- UL Approval File.
- TUV Germany testing and validation report.
- ROHS certificate.
These boards are not made with whatever parts have fallen from the truck last night in the Shenzhen Market, they are comming from reputable chain suppliers.
For such a Applications Dev Board they are more than suitable and for any special requests can provide also more fancy and expensive options from OMRON, FINDER, FUJITSU-TAKAMISAWA, etc.

Re: Ebay Wifi Relay boards
A problem...
From this day the espboard is restarting in after 3 minutes...
Did try a lot other setting..
No luck @all
Is there a way to set back the factory of the ESP software?
Cannot reach the board with the webgui anymore.. [ did something wrong in the hardware settings i think ]
Or need i t reflash the board?

Re: Ebay Wifi Relay boards
Hello Dylantje,
you may try to reset it via the serial port using the Arduino IDE or ESPlorer, sending a "reset" to the ESP.
Or you may try a hard reset:
- Switch off the ESP
- Connect Rx and Tx pins to eachother
- switch on and wait at least a minute.

Re: Ebay Wifi Relay boards
Hi guys
I notice this thread mentions LinkNode R8 so I am trying my luck here
After I uploaded the Easpeasy R120 to a R8 board, and start configuring it, I notice after the 6-7th device (switch input), the board starts rebooting continuously, making it impossible to use.
Has anyone experienced the same?
I have uploaded using Arduino 512k/64 spiffs/QIO, generic esp8266 on my Mac
My next step would be to go to my windows and upload one of the compiled images with the esptool.exe, but my hopes are not high
Cheers!

Re: Ebay Wifi Relay boards
The LinkNode R8 uses a ESP-12E.
The ESP-12E has 4096 KB flash.
Using the R1xx Versions please use a 4M (3M SPIFFs) memory model.
If self compiling with Arduino IDE you may simply use the "nodeMCU 1.0" setting.

Re: Ebay Wifi Relay boards
My 340 drivers are not working with me on my Windows 10
And I did tried with 4M/64SPIFFS but with the same result
The board compiles and uploads well with the Arduino IDE and works very well until, after I have configured the 7th relay, starts rebooting every 10 secs
In another time it was when all relays were ON.
Still pending uploading using esptool.exe on my windows
Thanks for the tips!

Re: Ebay Wifi Relay boards
Try 4M/1M Spiffs for the R147/R148 or 4M/3M Spiffs for the 2.0.0.DEVx.
I'm using ESPtool for flashing mostly, should work.
For a try flash a readily compiled R147 from the wiki to the board.
The CH340 should usually run on win10 too. I've seen drivers for the chip and win-10.

2 the same linknode 8 relais boards.
the same motion
the same firmware.
the same complete setup. [ hardware settings/ untick ttl etc etc ]
use gpio 1 for dht, like you learned me here
use gpio 3 for motion...
Stange thing.
1 board works perfect.
the other board [ everything the same ] is acting on and off without motion [ incl 10k resister ]
The time is different.
without motion, d3 is on and off. ...
grrrr.
Is there a background setting or something else ti can set.
build a nice switching module,....
only now i cannot use the motion..
Help or something...
xxx
Did found a strange thing..:
Board 1; sw:0
sw:1
Switching the motion, looks ok.
Only board 2: sw:0
sw:1 [ should be switching ]
Only there is a gpio switch after.

Amyways... is it possible to swap the two sensors to see if the seonsor or the linknode causes the problem?

Did swap... [ not with my wife ]
No luck..
The most strange thing.
I did a test setup..
Works for weeks... [ in my garage ]
After a hard reset because i set something wrong..
This strange thing is happening..
Re: Ebay Wifi Relay boards
To get it straight:
"No luck" says it's the same circuit with another sensor going crazy?
How did you hard reset? Tx/Rx shortened? Sent a "Reset"?The most strange thing.

Domoticz on Raspi 2 -- 14 ESP units (hacked Sonoff,NodeMCUs, Wemos, self-built units) running with RC140- Mega 2.0.0 dev8
Re: Ebay Wifi Relay boards
That is the only thing different...Direct sunlight?
mmm that's shoeld be nasty.....
1 pir have dig a cable to the door for this pir...
GGRRRRR
Perhaps with a 10K between..
The strange part. test works great...

Re: Ebay Wifi Relay boards
I wanted to provide a follow up and closure to my previous plea for help
Situation: Espeasy R120 not stable, causing nodelink R8 to reboot every 10 secs. Espeasy loaded with Arduino source code. Board was also not reacting on MQTT commands.
Solution:
Upgraded to 147 RC8 using the flash.cmd method.
I can now control my relays using one of the following:
mosquitto_pub -t "{devicename}/gpio/16" -m "1" [or "0"].
mosquitto_pub -t "{devicename}/cmd" -m "GPIO,16,1"
mosquitto_pub -t "{devicename}/cmd/gpio/16" -m "1"
My MQTT broker receives the same message, so I am able to keep track of what is ON of OFF and bridge this to other systems (in my case, SmartThings)
At least the board is able to listen to the broker and the board is now stable.
I had some hiccups with Openhab MQTT mode, where the board would loose connection with the broker, but so far great.
Now my next challenge is to send a more user-friendly command such as:
mosquitto_pub -t "{devicename}/LivingRoomLight/switch" -m "1" [or "0"].
I just don't want to deal with the GPIO mapping!
Any hints?
The documentation is not rich on this matter. I am sure others have the same struggle.
Thanks!
