Re: PWM dimming, delay, decreasing??

... so far still making changes and adjusting. might need a little change in hardware if i cannot adjust the speed correctly. I will reply to you later

Re: HTTP request -> LCD??

mmhh,

thanks. If GET isnt currently supported, I think I will implement this using the AT firmware and an external arduino or something.

Goal is to get displayed values from an existing server by http, tcp or udp telnet. Push is not possible, since the esp module is not inside my network ;-)

HTTP request -> LCD??

Hi,

is it possible to display the data received from a http request on a attached display? For example a rule runs every hour or so and requests http://whatever/display1234

the result will be plain text "123456"

can I display this value on the LCD or 7 segment??

Re: Outgoing TCP (Telnet) connection via UART?

basically, what I'm looking for is a sendToTCP command, so I can send a text string from one uart to another.

SendToUDP cannot do it, since the serial server only reacts to tcp connections...

Re: Sonoff Classic - works with USB not 230V

I noticed a similar case when going from the AT firmware to easyesp. Its a power supply issue. My guess is that during initial wifi setup the easyesp uses more cpu and the system is producing more curent spikes.
try adding a 100µF tantalum cap to the +3.3V

Re: Comments on the new UI?

I like the frontend - however for configuration I wouldnt care too much.

I'd much rather have a configurable end-user frontend like the shelly devices. :geek:

Re: PWM dimming, delay, decreasing??

I decided to go a different route. I'm currently making a wemos d1 shield with an avr that handles the pwm. (the easyesp also cannot simultaneously dim)

Re: PWM dimming, delay, decreasing??

oh,

and I want to add:

/control?cmd=pwm,2,512,7000,500

-> I cannot find any release, where the pwmfreq is set to 500 either

its broken.

Use a version with Core 2.4.1, all is fine ...
I use ESPEasy_mega-20180506 and PWM is working.
No it isn't.... dimming down doesnt work on the 20190413 core241 i just loaded

also, while I'm complaining like an old woman.... an option to set the pwm frequency would be great. like pwmfreq=100 for 100hz

Re: Change PWM Frequency ?

strange that this option is not implemented, as a command.

I think instead of recompiling (which usually breaks things)

I think i will have to add an avr that reads the pwm from the esp and outputs on different frequenccy

what a mess.

mega-20181028 is able to slowly dim down.

are there any notes, why the behaviour was changed?

Re: Reboot cause: WEMOS D1 (clone) voltage regulator ??

the issue is not dropout voltage - its most likely how steep the slopes are. how fast can the capacitors and regulator catch up? try adding a 220µF low esr cap to the input of the regulator and 1µF to the output. also put a 100nf to each 3.3v pin on the nodemcu. for the 0.1µF i use 0805 smd types, t...

PWM dimming, delay, decreasing??

Hi, I'm trying to convert an old avr dimmer to esp8266 with espeasy. So far, hardware works as expected... However, it seems like, when setting the pwm, for example pwm=12,1024,1000 -> ok nice and smooth pwm=12,100,1000 -> it goes to 0 and then starts to increase to 100, instead of decreasing from 1...

Switch Button Long Push

Hi,

I have a question regarding the use case when using a button.

- Is there a way to detect a long push (for example, to implement a dimmer -short push on/off, long push pwm increase)

I have setup a active high switch in the devices, and checked the submit button.

However, looking at the FHEM log, the button push is sent twice. Is this a bug?
