RGBWW Plugin development questions

[sledge]

dev0, sorry to bother you but i would love to get your plugin working. I tried to compile 147_RC8 8, but with you plugin loaded i can´t get it to work.
In

ESPEasy.ino sketch i changed #define FLASH_EEPROM_SIZE from 4096 to 512

Arduino Settings:

Board: Generic ESP8266 Module
Flash Mode: DIO
Flash Frequency: 40MHZ
CPU Frequency: 80 MHZ
Flash Size: 512 (64K SPIFFS)
Debug port: Disabled
Debug Level: none
Reset Method: ck
Upload Speed: 115200
Port: COM5

Please give us a hint how to setup the board with your plugin. A precompiled image would also help.

Having said this i like to mention that i love your idea to develop a plugin for h801 mqtt rgb control and it would be a pleasure to me to give you a feedback how it works.

Sorry for hijacking your thread

This is not needed. You have to set Flash Size tp 512k/64k in Arduino IDE only. Copy the plugin, remove 2-3 unused Plugins, compile.
If there is a compiler error telling you that there is not enough space then remove another plugin. That's all.

Keep in mind that the plugin is not more then a proof of concept at the moment. A setup with only cw/ww stripes will work fine, but all other setups will not show an usable white for example. There is no color correction at all.

512k/64k for the H801

Hello Dev0, that is not correct. The H801 has the same flash chip as the ESP-01, Flash Chip ID: 1327328
So you can use 1M (64K SPIFFS) for the H801.

I did it with my H801 and it going perfect.

512k/64k for the H801

that is not correct.

I don't think you can know which flash chip is used on my hardware. May be there are other versions.

You are not able to flash or you don't get it working? I can flash but the RGB commands show no effect on a simple RGB stripe (R,G,B, VCC)

Thx Dev0 it worked for me. Now we talk

To keep your thread clean i started a new one with a little documentation how to get your plugin running. viewtopic.php?f=2&t=2582

Is it possible to send MQTT messages to control the RGB functionality? I so, may I have an example of how to set this up (topic and payload syntax).

Thanks

[dev0]

MQTT should be possible, as with all other plugins.

Is this plugin perhaps working??
Like to have a rgbw controller based on Espeasy..

Or are there @this time other espeasy rgbw controllers that are working with domoticz?
