Let's Control It

Grumpf

I flashed ESP_Easy_mega_20201102_normal_ESP8266_4M1M, it still works.

I'll check it then, TX.

I just tried with my HW, configuring output as GPIO12 (D6) and it worked. (don't pay attention to the mess it's early debugging) IMG_20201125_205558.jpg I don't know but I'll bypass the converter and feed the led in directly from D6 after a 330 ohm resistor. Maybe 2.2k is too much for this version ?...

Grumpf

Now, that's what I call an answer ! Thanks a lot for the explanation.
Cheers !

Grumpf

Can we have a schematic of your HW ? Here's what I use for a project of mine (not Espeasy though), ignore the blue. Untitled-1.jpg I expiremented a bit and I can tell you that not every pins of the Wemos works. Don't ask me why but it's like that. For sure D4 works I have several units running. I po...

Grumpf

So what you're saying is that I need a little bit more power consumption for this thing to be more accurate ? Here's my toaster result : 2020-11-25 14_08_53-Thirty-six.png The numbers don't exactly match but I guess it's a roundup difference. Do you know what's the minimum Watts it needs to become a...

Hi, using ESP_Easy_mega_20201102_hard_SONOFF_POW_4M1M
I have that for the values :

Is power that wattage ? As it seems we're outlaws here, at least for Georg...
The 4 value changes well and Power decrease if I remove some load.

Thanks !

Grumpf

Indeed. Thanks I'll do that and redesign it.

Grumpf

Hi guys, I "designed" this based on the the size of 3 18650 holders (maybe overkill I know, in //). The point is to use the 4 analog input of the ADS1115 with capacity moisture sensors like this : SEN0193-test.png The A0 of the Esp will be to monitor the batteries. I may use I²C with an Ol...

Grumpf

Ah ok, didn't know that.
If when you use your own code, the esp32 goes to sleep but not when you flash Espeasy it's safe to assume something in the Espeasy code prevent it. I hope some dev here can help you.

Grumpf

The board with the ESP32 has the RST connected to D0 right ?

Grumpf

Hi Guys, I want to build a simple remote control for various tasks. One of my objective is to be able to have a pushbutton that can trigger other Nodes through HTTP/MQTT commands. I want Domoticz (or insert your app here) to know about it but I want the switch to work even when the server is down. S...

Grumpf

Ok. Can you share your settings so I can check and try it from here ?

Grumpf

You know, there's only one way to be sure. I got a friend in Australia if we ever want to try, and I made black powder rockets in my youth but somehow I'm not sure that qualifies enough.

Grumpf

I remembered something about putting in for the max time allowed but somehow never found a "permanent" state. Max is a bit less than 4 hours. Unless you plan to send it to the oort cloud is that too low ? Tell us what you want to achieve, then we may help you better (well for the others, I...

Grumpf

Hi Andrew, can you describe what you're trying to achieve ? I'm curious.

Grumpf

Question for electricians here : If you power the lolin through the KVM, can you drive those lines to GND directly or it'll damage the Lolin ?

As for the remote, you need IR, can't use Wifi ?

Grumpf

Understood. My electricity knowledge is not that great but basically your KVM will provide +5V and little switches need to be grounded to operate. You do want to command them remotely with a remote (existing or that doesn't matter ?). The IR led is for what though ? You have to pilot something else ...

Grumpf

You mentionned in your previous post a possible boot problem if you use 6 GPIOs of the Lolin. Is that the case or was it just precaution ? Also, what are those pads on the side of the Aimos ? I can't find the manual for the AM404K, it doesn't have a software key like CTRL-PRTSCN or something similar...

Grumpf

If the issue is not being able to see Wifi, maybe it's worth investigating with another wifi network. Can you create an AP with your Laptop plugged in to the wall network (or into your router) ? Same thing with the Esp AP, did you try to see if other devices can see it ? I mean, I don't know what c...

Grumpf

Gonna go for some "Mandalorian" telly with the wife now. Tomorrow morning, I'll PM you and we can check how to help each other. Have a nice evening (Belgium here).
Cheers !

Grumpf

Anytime Doctor !

Grumpf

We're all like that ! Projects.jpg Let me play Sherlock here; you want to control 4 buttons with an IR sender, sounds like you got an old device with an old remote ? I got the same issue. Old X10 alarm, the last remote in mankind history and the need to control it through multiple sources is present...

Grumpf

Thanks all. I didn't do that but fortunately I was already planning on using a D1 mini pro as the device will be inside a wall.
Cheers and thanks for the tip, next board I'll cut.

Grumpf

What are you going to control with the relays ? Also, unless your design is already made for reasons; it's best to tell us what is your project.
What are you trying to accomplish ? Sometimes someone will come with a simpler way.

Cheers!

Grumpf

Thank you. I wanted to kill him when he said : "But I'm not going to show you the results yet, first let's check how I arrived at this design." Something similar.
Very informative, way above my level but now I know. I ordered the PCBs, let's cross fingers !

Grumpf

Thank you. That's way above my level but I'll TLDR you (yes yes, probably done millions of time) and use one side for GND and the other for 3.3V then.

Have a nice day sir, it's a hard time for a consultant like me being covided home but I've joined your patreon.

Grumpf

I'm designing some PCBs for various projects. I heard in the EasyEDA tutorial that you may or may not want to fill empty areas with copper to your board as it may create interference for radio devices. Anyone has an advice about that ? What's best practice ? Thanks ! WithoutCopper.jpg Copper.jpg

Grumpf

I asked a friend to give me a disposable UV cuvette used in lab for spectrophotometry. I'll keep you posted on my results. Cheers.

Grumpf

Thanks guys, I'll experiment a bit with different materials vs no cover at all while it's still nice here. Mmm let's see if I have tow sensors so I can run them in //.

Thanks,

Grumpf.

Grumpf

First, sorry if it's the wrong section. I couldn't find the answer in the forum already. Got a lot of nice working sensors for light like : TLS2561 GY1145 GYML8511 BH1750 And to some extent : MLX90614 TCS34725 Question is, circuit is working fine, everything's ready for production but what now of th...

Grumpf

Yes, I just did the whole change without checking what was the real issue there. Considering my poor soldering skills I'll do a full test again to identify the real culprit (although it's good practice to just add pullups and lower speed when not needed) before publishing anything. But it works. I2C...

Grumpf

Added resistors and slowed down the bus. Worked like a charm I now have 3 days (hence I waited to post back) stability. Thanks TD-er. I'll finish my word document then try to do an instructable about the whole process. There are several already but none toward Espeasy. Here's the graph with the unca...

Grumpf

Thanks, I disabled the serial but I was wondering about the pull-ups, forgot it was no the native I²C pins, I'll try that and post my results.
Cheers.

Grumpf

I flashed two sonoff minis that I thought were bricked (will do the third one tonight). I reconfigured the RX/TX pins to be used for I²C but had unstable (to say the least) results with a BME280. Anyone tried that or have advice about it (adding resistors etc.)? 14 PCB&Wires (Small).jpg 15 P...

Grumpf

Considering the price, I think it'll be worth it. Even if we need to compile it or a discreet release.

Grumpf

Good to know. Thanks.

Grumpf

The scan doesn't populate the supported devices column. Otherwise, it works fine.

Grumpf

Their answers was: everything's there : https://shelly.cloud/knowledge-base/dev ... ni/#pinout

Got the pinout but I asked about the MPU & flash size (the manual dwnld doesn't work).

Grumpf

Well the status "pre-order" doesn't sound like a lot of us will already have one of those.

Well, If you want to be "technical"

I opened a ticket and asked.

Let's wait then...

Grumpf

Was rummaging in project boxes today to clean a bit and found a T0EU2C in the box. I tried to flash it using the latest Mega with flasher tool. Didn't work until I tried Esp_easy_mega_20200829_normal_alt_wifi_ESP8266_1M.bin. GPIO0 from back pad to gnd, that's it. Now I had to use those rules to make...

Grumpf

Anyone got one ? Can we program it ?

https://shop.shelly.cloud/shelly-uni-wi ... mation#394

Grumpf

How is your time stored ? if you transform everything in seconds like

if (%syshour%*3600+%sysmin%*60+%syssec%) > [var#1]

Won't that work ?

Also you came with a solution proposal, not your issue. If you describe your objectives we may help you better.
Cheers !

Grumpf

Tx. I'll try that.

Grumpf

Oh you mean I should release GPIO0 from GND when the programmer starts to flash ?

Grumpf

Hi, I was looking through the code of P095 to see if it was possible to redefine the size of the TFT to accomodate the 1.4 version (128X128) but couldn't figure it out. The plugin works with it (https://docs.wemos.cc/en/latest/d1_mini_shiled/tft_1_4.html) but half of the screen is garbage. Thanks, A...

Grumpf

Lol, indeed, I do it all the time try this way, hmmm let's swap then

But it didn't worked this time. I managed to make it work through MQTT though but I would have prefered a real Espeasy on it.

Thanks.

Grumpf

Anyone managed to flash the Shelly Dimmer ? I bought a 2.54-1.27-2 little board to ease things, I bridge pin 1 to pin 3 using the .2 row (to ground GPIO0). Shelly Dimmer adapteur.jpg I assumed that the pinout of the Shelly was from top to bottom GND VCC GPIO0 GPIO2 RX TX. As I've seen on this pic : ...

Grumpf

Yes, thank you. Thatr's what I did and it worked. WE can consider my issue worked around

Thanks everyone for extremely fast answers.

Cheers !

Grumpf

I was using DEV but it was not enabled by default. I did precisely what you said and it worked. OTOH to receive all the values I had to add those rules : on SI1145#UV do SendToHTTP 172.19.0.63,80,/json.htm?type=command&param=udevice&idx=1009&nvalue=0&svalue=[SI1145#UV] endon on SI114...

Grumpf

Oh wait, you mean I can simply use a #define in the the main ino and that'll work ?
Sorry noob here.
