Re: How many Tasks

i don't have your answer, but i just came here to ask a somewhat similar question. if you don't mind, i'll piggyback on this a little and maybe the answer will satisfy both of us. i used to have an esp8266 in each room, but i'm trying to consolidate things (fewer things plugged into the wall). this ...

Re: publish value between certain hours

i think i'm getting close but i'm not seeing it in OH events on Kitchen_LUX#KIT_LUX do If %systime% < 8:00:00 Publish %sysname%/Kitchen_Lux/KIT_LUX,[Kitchen_LUX#KIT_LUX] Endif If %systime% > 14:45:00 <<-----(just testing it) Publish /%sysname%/Kitchen_LUX/KIT_LUX/[Kitchen_LUX#KIT_LUX] Endif Endon

publish value between certain hours

This probably sounds like a silly request... say for no good reason i want to reduce the amount of extra crap in my OH event log would it be possible to send values of a sensor only during certain hours? Like a Lux sensor, i don't care about its readings after 8am and before 6pm Could a rule be writ...

Re: Mcp23017 as gpio input

all that aside :P thanks for the heads up on the pull down being too high. i don't have any zeners handy so using a 10k as the pull down part of the divider i can now get the inputs pulled to ground rather than floating unlike the esp gpios it seems there's no selectable pull down. there's still a c...

Re: Mcp23017 as gpio input

Just for some testing: Can you manually set the GPIO pin to low/high and see if you get a result? I'm not sure to what the internal pull ups are set by ESPEasy, 68K/150K might be too high for the MCP23017 if an internal pull up is set. Regards Shardan If i edit the plug-in is that something i can c...

Reset is tied to 3.3 no resistor.

The A side outputs trigger a couple l293d chips and i get the desired response from that side.

The divider is gnd - 68k - mcp - 150k - 9vdc

Thanks for helping

Mcp23017 as gpio input

I'm trying to use the inputs on the mcp23107 to sense garage door proton. Previously i was using gpio pins on the esp but I'm trying to combine the function of a few controllers to 1 so i need the port expander. The switches run about 9vdc and I'm using a voltage divider with the exact same value. L...

serial to esp-12f

i'm trying to get something out of a esp-12f module. can i connect this with a regular serial port on an older computer?
should it work with a regular usb->serial port adapter?

i can't seem to get anything out of it or program it. do i need a *special* serial adapter or something?
