Let's Control It

All problems solved. Previous used Wemos was still in the network and also had IDX 1 same as the new setup Domoticz switch. So they were bugging each other OFF when I switched it ON. After power down other Wemos only the one with the switch is in the AIR. So now the Domoticz job to switch on and off...

Setup switch in ESPEASY.

Backbone

Sorry I overlooked the double slash at the other spot. I feel stupid.... I corrected this error. So one step further. Now I only have in Domoticz log a "HTTP" error left. When in Domoticz I switcch the switch to ON it turns OFF in Domoticz after 30 seconds or so. Still in devices a nice 0....

If I try to move the // to the front I cant save the URL! Save button is then inactive.
BTW I play to the ESPEASY rules which worked before.

Backbone

Set up of switch.
Also installed a fresh Domoticz and only add the switch. yesterday.

Backbone

It is Domoticz giving this error

Backbone

This the green status I try to change. No need to have a relay connectd to get the status changed. Or am I wrong?

Backbone

Thanks for the replies, I have used other ports on the Wemos D and also a fresh Wemos and other relays to troubleshoot. But we are now talking about the output state of the port in devices of ESPEASY. I tried MEGA version to upload but failed so revert back to what is working for me. And remember wi...

Hi guys, Have Domoticz running with a few Wemos D1 mini's with R120. In one setup one Wemos has a 5 volt relay connected on GPIO-0 Relay is normally activated by a temp sensor for over or under temp Thermostat function. This worked fine for 3 months. Suddenly the relay function does not work. Relay ...

Maarten, USB to TTL converters can deliver maximum 300 ma. ESP8266 need more power if the wifi works! Beaware if you have problems your not the first......... Use breadboard power supply with 1 amp power adapter to trouble shoot. I run the same set up but my detection point is a silver spot on the d...

Backbone

Now i can figure out how the ds18b20 will display the right temperature instead of 0.00.

Place IDX number other then zero 0.

Backbone

did you try with the command "settings" in the serial monitor? could be of interest.. I did serveral clears loads from 48 to 76 but no IP address.\ Even again did the new 77 bin way. Then I had 76 in and in the monitor I types settings as suggested. Voila the Ip address was shown which th...

FYI, Wemos D1 mini fresh from the package. Started the tool. Port 25 4096 size Version 77 and off she goes. When done I start IP scanner. Nothing found. Wait 2 minutes scan again nothing found. Repower and wait 2 minutes again nothing found. Check with serial monitor from Arduino IDE (so we sometime...

Same problem here with ESP8266 -201 series.
Worked flawless before on 39 but after upgrade to 68 only problems.
Downgrade to 48 stable also no IP anymore.
Other 8266-01 work perfct but that is on older version 39.

On an ESP 8266-201 version first erased and then flashed with version 68. Standard settings as they come from github. Only change SSID and Password and controller IP to 192.168.1.19. After reboot about 1,5 minute later I see the DHCP address and log in to the ESP EASY UI. I see the Contoller IP is 1...

Carlos,

The WEMOS moduls works on 5 volt cell phone adapter if it supplies 600 Ma.
The WEMOS has already 5 volt DC to 3.3 volt DC step down built in.
That relais will work fine.

Paco

PS. I recently bougth me a 3D printer so my next project is to design custom boxes for the PCB's.

Sometimes you can be fooled by what people offer for sale. The battery packs are pure for debugging for beginners............. ;-) Google for power consumption ESP 8266 and you see they are not the best solution for battery operated sensors. MYSENSORS is using other RF chip which is less consuming p...

Hola Carlos,

ESP and batteries are no good solution.
Batteries and sensors is MYSENSORS option.

If you have a relay on hand use it as it is very clear when it works. No click of the relay means it is not working :-). Connect the relay to the ESP and perform from DMZ the pulse action. When it works connect the NO contacts over the C1 switch. If the relay works inversed you have to change the fr...

You have a bi color Oled.
There are several version available.

From DMZ I control through ESP EASY 4 relays which are working fine. You have to take care you preferable not use the OPTO coupler versions as they cant always sink the relay into ON state as the 3.3 volt is then on the edge of the tolerance of openeing the transistor into a correct conduction state...

Your are refering to something like this?

How do you want to control the ESP pulse signal?
By an other switch or Domoticz... or?

Some more testing. @ Bert, with the serial monitor I see no reset and all values of the connected sensors give good values or status as shown in the ESP EASY interface. As I did not trusted the devices found in the DMZ devices and setup I removed them all. Removed the device and added it again. Swit...

Backbone

i do not know how that mqtt stuff works.
it should work as you describe.
What happens in the esp interface is the correct status...........to work from. if they differ with openhab I have no idea.

Now I know what bert has it seems the names of the sensors are incorrect and also the values.

The remote address is the ip address of the esp8266 and the port number i presum is prob 5003. That did the trick and we see devices added.................but those are devices picked up which are not mine..... no serialmonitor connected so no idea if it reboots. esp201 module Paco Knipsel14.JPG

Did you connected the GND to the ESP board? Picture does not show it. This is how it works for me with a simple NO Normally Open contact. Take care that if you press the switch the status in the interface will take some time to refresh. Or do a manual refesh of the browser. IDX/VAR is not shown as s...

Could upload it now OK. In the ESP EASY interface I could set up DHT, DS18B20 and a switch. But what is the next step in DMZ? Just fill in the IP address of the DMZ server I am currently running on the Pi2 and the 8080 port? Then go to setup? Should it display the ESP EASY sensors right away? Paco K...

to see the switch work in the esp easy interface you have to set the IDX/var value to an other value then 0.

As I understand correctly. It is ESP EASY MY SENSORS experimental firmware as mentioned above pumped with the arduino IDE to an ESP8266 variant. Sensors are detected in DMZ as hardware devices and are not virtual anymore. Nothing more nothing less. Only the ESP module and your connected sensors. Not...

2,1 amps is enough

What does the serial monitor reports?

Paco

Backbone

Can you explain a little more precise what you mean with
"My problem is that I can't get the ESP to load when I attach a pull-up resistor to either GPIO".

When EASY esp is loaded you do not need any pull up or down resistors on the GPIO-01or 02 on the ESP 8266-01 versions.

Paco

Backbone

Keep rethinking Martinus

Is this the 512 Mb ram problem you are refering at for not able any more using simple 512 Mb ESP 8266-01 versions?

Paco

Backbone

Your setup looks OK.
After upload what does the serial monitor show after a reboot?
What is amp rating of the power supply?

Martinus,

No need to say you made a mistake.
All you do is free......no one complaints.
We had Arduino then the ESP shows up.
What can we expect in 12 months time?
It never stops developing and thinking and rethinking and...........
Keep up the good work.

Is it an option to make the code configurable so in the sketch we can assign IP address,gateway and subnetmask at first upload? Why? Saves time for searching the DHCP address or first AP search trouble. You need a IP scanner anyway to find the DHCP address if you do not use the first 30 seconds AP r...

Good to hear it works now, I said it must be something simple.

OK step by step. For all ESp module if you switch it on and there is no code chaching state of the output the pinoutput is LOW!!!!!! or not active or what you want to call it. LEDS only. You are switching VCC by the ESP pin!!!!! not GND so you use current sourcing. ESP is swithed OFF. You connect le...
