Let's Control It

wutu

Hey krikk, good idea.
Do not think about writing plugin for ESPEasyPluginPlayground?

wutu

Download EASPEasy. Open it in ArduinoIDE. On tab _P022_PCA9685 change

this line
Plugin_022_writeRegister(PCA9685_MODE2, (byte)0x10); // set to output
to
Plugin_022_writeRegister(PCA9685_MODE2, (byte)B00000101); // set to output

Compile and upload to ESP.

Martinus, amazing job. Please add Protocol 5.

wutu

It would be good to solve this separate topic. With online/connected status.

Now I find out whether the device is reconnected to a broker. Respectively. I have in my system two rules are in addition to achieve this.

I do not think it a good idea to mix species payload on a single topic. It's then processing issue. Many software distinguishes the type of payload. For example Freeboard where it is important to determine whether the devices communicate using JSON already during configuration.

wutu

ESPEasy + ESP32 with Ethernet port or WiFi is my dream combination.

One probe to rule them all.

HI, So what is the new style MQTT GPIO/PWM commands?

wutu

With R120 does not operate PWM through a MQTT (OpenHAB MQTT). ESP freezes. Http command working OK.
With the R137_RC1 everything is OK.

EDIT: On wemos d1 mini with R121 does not work too.

wutu

With the R108 I have a problem with the protocol 5 (OpenHAB). Otherwise below ok.

You can use protocol 5 (OpenHAB = MQTT).
Communication as follows: ESPEasy <> MQTT Broker (e.g. Mosquitto) <> Your Software
Into your software you must add some MQTT client.

From https://github.com/ESP8266nu/ESPEasy/bl ... eNotes.ino
// R95 31-03-2016
// Added periodic Wifi reconnect check when Wifi connection is lost, AP will be active during this stage

wutu

I have the same problem with the R108. As sozkara.

wutu

I have the version R91, R100, R103 and 2x R107. When I retart the AP, only R91 to connect always. Other versions someone joins permanently or end up in a loop (Socket error on client ESPClientX, disconnecting.).
I'm using OpenHAB MQTT, Broker Mosquitto 1.4.9 on Linux.

wutu

I found to do this: https://www.bountysource.com/issues/270 ... ite-values
and this: http://www.esp8266.nu/forum/viewtopic.p ... ring#p3434

You observe something similar? I drive through OpenHAB MQTT.

wutu

msev: Course you're right, but it also uses https://github.com/adafruit/Adafruit-GFX-Library. That makes me a bit confounded. Deennoo: I compiled with the Arduino IDE 1.6.8 and ESP8266 2.1.0, all other libraries in the last github version. If you prefer, write, I compile it for you. Just tell which ...

wutu

Sticilface nicely tuned https://github.com/sticilface/Melvanimate.
With MQTT and can be controlled via http://pixelinvaders.ch/?page_id=160
On Wemos D1mini works well. Use the library from Adafruit.

wutu

Thx xbmcnut, working for me.

wutu

Stefan: You can read from http://ESPEasy/json

noox: In device config check the "Send Data"
Minimal it works with OpenHub Protocol (almost generic MQTT).
Development versions has also "Send Boot state"

wutu

jeah, but in my gira-homeserver i have configured a longer timer than the PIR has itself, so that my lights stay on over this longer duration. without going off after the pir-timer. or flicker off... i could do this again with my homeserver and ESPeasy, but it would be nice, if i configure the PIR ...

Hello Martinus. Thanks for the quick fix. Everything works as it should. Just one observation: If the switch is set to: myhome/firstfloor/office/esp01/mcpgpio/3 Sends status only when first using the switch. When I change it to: myhome/firstfloor/office/esp01/mcpgpio/state everything is alright than...

I do not know, but I do not run slower on my rpi.

Because ESP Easy caught me, I wrote MQTT module for Pimatic https://forum.pimatic.org/topic/1444/ne ... matic-mqtt or https://github.com/wutu/pimatic-mqtt/tree/master

wutu

I use github version, now R83

If I have: Subscribe Template: myhome/firstfloor/office/%sysname%/# Publish Template: myhome/firstfloor/office/%sysname%/%tskname%/%valname% Published data can be performed properly.

wutu

Yes, it is possible.
I use:
esp GPIO:
<systopic>/pwm/<pin> with payload: 0-254
pca9685 GPIO
<systopic>/pcapwm/<pin> with payload: 0-4094

wutu

Looks like sticilface sleeps not. So hopefully something will.

costo: Thank you, that is exactly it. Afternoon test it and let you know.

Setup is:
Plugin_022_writeRegister(PCA9685_MODE2, (byte)B00000101);

Thank you again. FETs are already hot.

wutu

Thank you, but it's a matter ESPEasy, the program depends on what mode will control the output.
values:
INVRT
OUTDRV

P.S. I have education in electronics and telecommunications. Needless to lecture me about the basics.

wutu

costo: thx, of course I read it.
But on the wiki is not mentioned involved LEDs.
According to the datasheet it may be Fig 13., Fig 14. and Fig 15., on page 29.
https://www.adafruit.com/datasheets/PCA9685.pdf

Fig 13. and Fig 15. is not working for me.

Hi, I am unable to run PCA9685. On i2c see him. And I have this wiring: https://blog.adafruit.com/2013/03/29/po ... pberry_pi/, on ESP of course. Is it right?

wutu

Please , it would consider whether uptime through MQTT could be in seconds.
Most systems I've got, expects basic SI units .

wutu

just for the ws2812 lover, i surfed over this, maybe an inspiration to bring here over? :mrgreen: http://forkineye.com/espixelstick/ I tested this on Christmas. DMX is not appropriate for wireless. Better to me whether it controls already prepared animations in esp8266. With editable parameters. Li...

PCA9685 is badly detected.
