Let's Control It

Not 100% sure I understand what you're asking for.
Do you mean adding a separate color for 'info' log level so you can distinguish it from echo'ed commands and replies from those commands?

TD-er

Well Ton made the named variables, so without having read the docs, I can be sure he did a good job.

And Ton can confirm I didn't read the docs for it, judging our Signal chat of a few minutes ago

Code: Select all

let,1,%c_random%(1,100)
logentry,"My random value: [int#1]"

Have you tried it like this?

Or

Code: Select all

let,1,%c_random%(%v_min%,%v_max%)
let,random,[int#1]
logentry,"My random value:  %v_random%"

Not sure if floating point values as index will be parsed very well.
Never tested it.

Can you test this: https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/16l5544t ... u5xvz&dl=0

TD-er

What build binary do you need, so I can make a test build for you to test it.
Will nearly be the same as the upcoming release build

TD-er

Added the feature, it will be included in the next upcoming build, which will very likely be in April this year

TD-er

We're very close to making a new official release and this will not really affect existing code.
So I think we can include it as it is a nice feature to have.

In principe is de voertaal hier op 't forum Engels, zodat anderen ook mee kunnen lezen die het Nederlands niet machtig zijn. Ik zal dus ook in het Engels verder antwoorden. When sending the command via the command line, you know the display is connected correctly. So no need to look in there. Can yo...

TD-er

Just another thought about the reported NTP issues...
Do you have IPv6 enabled (or even included in your build) ?
If it is enabled, you could see the actual active DNS servers on the sysinfo page.
Could you have a look at the sysinfo page to see what ESPEasy lists there as DNS servers?

TD-er

Well you can reduce WiFi TX power, if needed.
But as long as it is working, let it work

TD-er

Keep in mind that RSSI is not the only value that determines a good WiFi connection.
For example, if the signal is too strong, it may show a similar effect like "distortion" in audio.
Sounds great for an electric guitar, but for signal processing it isn't that nice to have.

TD-er

Are you sure it is "Little Endian" and not "Big Endian" ?
I always mix up those two.

TD-er

OTA update may sometimes fail. What I do myself is to disable temporarily the ESPEasy p2p. On the Tools->Advanced page, you can change the UDP port for p2p to 0. Then update the firmware and when done, set it back to the port you're now using (likely port 8266) You can also look into the latest buil...

ESPEasy can be run on lots of ESP devices. ESP32-S2 is only one of many, as can be seen here: https://espeasy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ESPEasy/ESPchips.html#supported-esp-chips There are lots of those purple boards with an ESP32-S2 which are like a lotery whether you get one with a stable WiFi conne...

TD-er

You're welcome

And thanks for verifying + letting me know the result.

TD-er

How do you imagine you could use these?
It seems like these modules only use a S2LP, which is not much more than an "adapter" from RF to SPI.
It doesn't decode anything as you need to do it yourself.
Very much like those cc1101 modules.

TD-er

Yes, that was a fix, I only fixed yesterday and has not yet been merged into the main branch.
I just merged it...

[...] Version 1m was installed via cable normally, but not via ESP Easy software - as it gave the same error 2 I used the program WIFI-IOT Flasher from the site wifi-iot.com. I installed version 4M1M because I had already installed this version on these modules, but in 21-22-23 release years. Also,...

TD-er

Can you show the flash section of the sysinfo page?
Maybe also run the command "meminfodetail" first on the tools page and then load the sysinfo page.

This command will enable drawing some charts at the end of the sysinfo page regarding the partition table.

TD-er

You can save the current settings file (and rules) and keep them as a backup. This is always a good idea to do. On later builds you even can download all files as a single tar file, but that wasn't an option back in 2022, so you may need to save all files on your PC. Please save those files before m...

TD-er

Hmm given the time it takes for getting a DNS name resolved and your NTP duration, I think you have a rather slow internet connection. (or very busy connection) So keep this in mind when you need to configure something that's not in your local network, to increase any used timeout. For example when ...

Make sure the display will not heat up too much.
Not sure how well it can handle heat.

TD-er

The CPU-load should not be affected by this. Can you on the tools->Advanced page enable the "Collect Timing Statistics" checkbox? Then after a while you can visit the Tools-> Timing Stats page. N.B. on each reload of that page, the stats will be reset. This may help you find why your node ...

What I've seen is literally the coloring of the small balls inside the e-ink display to get wiped off.

Just to make sure there is no misunderstanding... With "random server" I mean that pool.ntp.org will always return a randomly selected host from its pool. You can try this yourself by trying to ping such a host via a command prompt on your PC. You may need to wait for a few minutes between...

TD-er

I assume you're talking about the S2, not the C2... What NTP-server do you set in the advanced settings? An IP-address or a DNS hostname? By default ESPEasy does not have "Use NTP" enabled on a clean install. When only having the checkbox to use NTP checked, ESPEasy will try to reach one o...

TD-er

A simple work-around (which isn't perfect I know) might be to send the values via rules. So the sending task will trigger an event and then via rules you can then send a command to another node via p2p. This also allows to make it more 'condensed' as you will be storing the values on the receiving e...

Yep, that's why I am now changing my network here. I did have 'smart' switches from TP-link. Since the last update of my Fritzbox, I have the option to monitor traffic of devices in my network. So just for fun I also added my TP-link switches to be monitored. To my surprise, at least one of those ha...

Well since we are an OpenSource repository, there should not be a hard limit. However a while ago, we suddenly were no longer able to make GH Actions builds anymore until we "updated our payment details". Well that's a bit scary, so I looked into it and apparently we used about 70'000 minu...

I will discuss with Ton.
We didn't have the usual 'please test' run and there was at least one serious issue reported regarding not starting AP-mode and/or switching from Ethernet to WiFi which needs to be looked into.

TD-er

So your rules should be something like this (not tested) on Clock#Time=All,**:** do Let,kv,3 LogEntry,'kv=%v_kv% o. kv=[var#kv]' If [var#kv] = 3 LogEntry,'HIT' endif endon Also some minor detail... This was merged on April 10th. I will trigger a new build so people can start testing. I have disabled...

TD-er

When using the %v...% notation, you need to format it like this:
%v_name% with "name" being the name of your variable.

See the description Ton added here: https://github.com/letscontrolit/ESPEasy/pull/5284

TD-er

When entering the wrong password for 'configesp', your phone probably remembers the password.
So maybe you can long-press on the found AP on your phone and then select something like "forget" or however it is named.

TD-er

Yep I totally understand what you're asking. Just keep in mind that the English language also isn't my mother tongue. How it should have worked: With credentials saved: Can ESPEasy connect to a network? If no, retry a number of times and after some time (I think it is 60 sec), start soft-AP mode If ...

TD-er

Well good to know that I need to look into this before any new official build is made.
So not 'a shame' but thank you for reporting such an important issue!

TD-er

Ehh can you show a close-up of how that antenna is being soldered? Not sure if that is how it should be done. Antenna impedance matching is quite tricky to do it well. As in that's exactly what I've been doing the past few months as a paid job. (apart from other things) And it is absolutely tricky t...

I don't know if you had time to see: Thank you, I'll test all this tomorrow night. Yes, I remember well. .Bin for update and factory for the first installation. On the other hand, if this version works and the problem came from there, if afterwards I want to install it directly (without going throu...

TD-er

If you have a node with Ethernet, why not using that one? After all, it is way more stable than WiFi. And the WiFi antenna on those Eth boards is always sub-optimal. Another thing you can consider is to add a simple WiFi extender which you can plugin in a wall outlet at maybe a better position to re...

These commands can be entered via the serial console (the web flasher page also allows you to open a console window, or use some serial terminal tool like Putty) or the "command" field on the Tools page. How do we enter the esp32 once in the console or putty? Just connect the ESP via the ...

You can see the build time on the sysinfo page of the version that is working (apart from saving the rules maybe)
Then I can look on my PC to see whether I have it still there.

If you have access to the ESP via either WiFi/Ethernet or serial, you can easily set the wifi password and/or SSID using commands: wifissid,YourWiFiNetworkSSIDName wifikey,YourSuperSecretWiFiPassword save These commands can be entered via the serial console (the web flasher page also allows you to o...

TD-er

I get it... Digging fiber optics between your houses is easier and faster to achieve compared to getting the other side to push the right reset button...

I also know a few in my family like that.

TD-er

Or... I will fix this bug and you upload the new firmware before your father-in-law needs a new router

Plug in Ethernet (if possible) is by far the safest fallback as that will simply work. (please test though... )

TD-er

I know there is still some bug in the ESPEasy code where it doesn't consider all possible access point candidates to be tested So this will then result in never starting the access point. When you power cycle (remove power from the ESP, unplug from mains....) the ESP may act differently as there nev...

TD-er

Yep, looks OK ESPEasy should (I know it doesn't always do this, working on a fix) start an access point when the configured WiFi access point cannot be found. Sometimes you may need to power cycle the ESP to achieve this. The name of the started access point is with the node name you configured. The...

Why do you use the solo1 build? That's for a different CPU type. The board you have does have dual core CPU. (please double check on the sysinfo page the CPU core count) Since on dual core builds the WiFi code is running on the other core, this does actually make a difference. You should be able to ...
