Let's Control It

ledfreak3d

Lol the inside looks crap but working on a beter version and domoticz interface
It basicly ru s on a single 18650 powerbank ript apart.

In the process of designig a beter case also

ledfreak3d

not espeasy but works very well with domoticz

ledfreak3d

hier werkt rgb en rgbw prima maar ccww krijg ik niet gepaired iemand enig idee ?

ledfreak3d

make sure you add devices first as a selector switch and then change them to a dimmer that should restore a full range of brightness

not sure why this happens in domoticz but its easy to fix

ledfreak3d

Here you go this script will control all your espeasy lights both rgb and single channel lights can be dimmed local lights = { ['Aqua Dimmer R/W'] = {ip = '192.168.1.98', pin = '14', rgb = false}, ['Aqua Dimmer B/W'] = {ip = '192.168.1.98', pin = '4', rgb = false}, ['keuken'] = {ip = '192.168.1.65',...

ledfreak3d

this one will do the job a lot beter both for rgb and rgbw setup is the same just create a dummy hw device and a a device as a selector switch first and then change it to a dimmer else you wont have full range of brightness then change the name and ip and corresponding pins in the script this script...

ledfreak3d

latest revision of rf link seems to give some strange results sometimes
some devices are not detected correctly anymore
have only seens this since r45
before always worked fine

seen with elro and kaku door sensor

ledfreak3d

door sensor seems to work ok but sometimes sees the device as unknown
range does not mather it also doers not register as kika but just as a generic device

is there anything known about this ?

ledfreak3d

See my post on page 8.
Everything is explained there you can run multiple light from the same script.
Both rgb and single colorml.
And on muktiple controllers running espeasy

ledfreak3d

Yep confirmed working with esp easy and domoticz with the correct script

ledfreak3d

ofcourse

ledfreak3d

yep you have to flash it with espeasy no extra plugin needed there are 4 pads on the board Untitled-1.jpg rx tx ground and 3.3 volt for the esp the pad near R14 IS the + 3.3 volt the pad next to R11 IS ground the only pad that is not on he board is gpio0 you will have to short that one to ground to ...

ledfreak3d

ok small update I have below dimmer now running successfully its running esp easy 145 via the standard build in pwm commands. so domoticz can talk directly to esp easy without any additional plugins works fine for both rgb and single led channels http://www.banggood.com/ARILUX-AL-LC01-Super-Mini-LED...

ledfreak3d

Working on it

ledfreak3d

Double checked. I have 4 unpopulated boards and 2 populated with a esp07 on it Would you post one of the populated boards to NZ to allow me to test? I can pay with PayPal or Amazon UK gift card. Understand if it's too much hassle. ;) should be no problem please contact me on email if anybody is int...

ledfreak3d

Double checked.
I have 4 unpopulated boards and
2 populated with a esp07 on it

ledfreak3d

need to get me a decent hot air station to do smd properly
now doing it with a normal soldering iron its doable but its not prety

ledfreak3d

thought so ;) if anybody is interested can put in a new order of boards ill check tonight how many I still have still have enough components to make more boards but don't have any esp12e's or buttons at the moment . still thinking about making a custome domoticz sensor board eather with esp8266 or a...

ledfreak3d

Hey Remco.

I will check tonight im sure I have some unpopulated and some populated ones
are you based in the Netherlands ?

ledfreak3d

I think I might have one or 2 laying around let me check tonight

both the esp07 and 12 and 12e fit on there I think I have both of them
think I have one or 2 ones that have not been populated yet

ledfreak3d

Hey Depends if you want bare boards or
boards that have been populated

ledfreak3d

Its a replica of scargils esp board had some made in black very handy for the nextions and any esp project

ledfreak3d

Hey Robin. I see my neopixel boards are atill working fine. the neopixel display looks great tested the artnet firmware this morning seems to work just fine on the neopixels haven't tested it on the h801 yet currently running espeasy with temp sensors and rgbww on both my h801's not using the miligh...

ledfreak3d

you can also get this one http://www.banggood.com/ARILUX-AL-LC01-Super-Mini-LED-WIFI-Smart-RGB-Controller-For-RGB-LED-Strip-Light-DC-9-12V-p-1058603.html officlaly its only rgb but the white channel is also present on the board so no problem to mod it with espeasy have one on order so ill post the r...

ledfreak3d

looks very interesting

ledfreak3d

any idea support team ?

ledfreak3d

Plugin seems to work fine
now trying to see what variables work
see picture attached

ledfreak3d

Same here

set is currently sold at lidl for around 14 euro's

ledfreak3d

all works fine on the h801 with espy easy
can control all the channels just fine

both rgb and double white

ledfreak3d

no results yet but working on it

ledfreak3d

I own a 2.4 and a 3,5 inch the basic versions

work perfectly for most things

ledfreak3d

humz been testing this morning via rules
but have not been able to get values displayed yet
can send command via http command line but the same command via rules does nothing

ledfreak3d

ahh yea that makes sense

ill see if I can build a test gui today and send over some data to the display that are usefull
my mane intererest would be sending data to domoticz to get it to do stuff
but I am sure we will find a way for that to

will post the results

ledfreak3d

thanks for the explanation majklovec

any idea how we can display esp easy stats like ip addres system time
or a sensor value from espeasy ?

is there a way to assign a virtual button on the nextion to a virtual / dummy switch on esp easy or in domoticz itself

ledfreak3d

nope no error
ive created a quick hmi file for testing and I can send value's and text to the corresponding test and value fields

ledfreak3d

yep plugin works fine
now to see how we can get something usefull on there

ledfreak3d

ill give it a go when I am home tonight se what we an do / improve on it

thanks for the work done majklove

ledfreak3d

wel the fading in quindor's code is done automaticly it fades between levels instead of just selecting the level straight away see http://blog.quindorian.org/2015/01/esp8266-wifi-led-dimmer-part-3-of-x-flashing-and-programming-the-esp-01.html/ for details on the code would be great it it can be inte...

ledfreak3d

I must say I don't use it my self I use a modified version of quindor's lau code to contoll my aquarium lights
they fade very nicely
and are super stable

ledfreak3d

that looks very nice
would you we willing to provide some files and info on how to do this
then we can build from there
the nextions are realy awesome lots we can do with them

ledfreak3d

yep I think something like that would be fine

ledfreak3d

ofcourse just compile the rgbw plugin with easy esp and you can control it via the milight plugin in domoticz
works good for rgb but not rgbw yet
but that's a limitation of domoticz not of the plugin

_P105_RGBW.zip: rgbw plugin; (3.42 KiB) Downloaded 805 times

ledfreak3d

Yep indeed a own a couple so can test if needed
but would have to agree on a gui layout first

ledfreak3d

true lol

the big question is what kind of info do you want to display on the nextion screen

I would say atleast

the wifI SSID
the ip addres
system time
maybe system resources
sensors that are active

ledfreak3d

the milight plugin works fine for rgb
sadly not for rgbw yet

ledfreak3d

yes I have those boards on scargils site
had 10 of them made
its not realy hard to send commands to nextion
but it would need a standard gui
ive changed the original nextion library so it supports software serial on any posst on the esp8266

ledfreak3d

this would be a awesome addition
I can help with testing if needed
would be awesome for simple control and status readout
