Re: New ESP gadget

I have one of these and have soldered wires to all 4 pads. I am having issues uploading easy ESP to it though. Can someone go into a bit more detail for me? Hi, what's the problem? Not flashing or doesn't run after flashing? The problem is not flashing. I've used the 4 pads on the bottom of the boa...

OTA with 1mbyte

Hi! Just wanted to check something. If i'm updating over the air onto a device with 1mbyte flash, I take it I should use 1meg with 512k spiffs when compiling? Also, why does it lose all its settings? Is it because the temp new image overwrites the setting on the chip? I mean, there isn't enough room...

The usual PIR-sensors from ali can be hacked to work with 3.3V. Maybe thats worth a try.

Re: ESP Easy R78: build from source code failed

R78 is meant to be used with the libraries packed with the R48 release Please, give me proof from developers :D Yes I agree, it can't be the same as r048 - r048 compiling didn't give this error: ESPEasy.ino:179:37: fatal error: ESP8266HTTPUpdateServer.h: No such file or directory ;) I'll try 2.0.0....

Hi, I would also like to build r078 from source but the files aren't correct for r078.. R078 asks for libraries that were not in r048. Where to get the correct libraries from as: a) Some new libraries are used. b) some previously used libraries in r048 must have been changed in r078 as r078 gives co...

Ah, if the code only requires turning off the serial output and adding them to the drop down list i'll have a dabble :)

Of course, could we change the espeasy code to disable the serial port and use those 2 lines for i2c? Is it just a software thing or do we need to put the esp chip in a different hardware mode to disable the uart?

Re: QuinLED via ESP Easy?

I've modded some of the source code and have fading working, after a fashion. It's not that smooth due to having a linear fade and also just being in the main loop. No error checking either as not bothered going beyond rough alpha coding due to poor performance. I have edited _p001_Switch.ino, WebSe...

Re: New ESP gadget

Mine have arrived and sad to say that the circuit diagrams online do not match the actual unit so no gpio line broken out to the pads (only 4 pads not 5 pads).

So maybe use gpio 0 from the switch and the led (shorting the current limiter resistor) as the i2c pair?

How to send codes to devices in learn mode

Hi! I would like to setup a manual switch in domoticz then put a home easy light dimmer in learn mode and get it trained but most devices, not just home easy, need you to keep your finger on the remote button for a few second thus repeating the code multiple times until leaning is complete. Is this ...

Hi mkotek,

Ah ha! Synology does in fact have curl! This may be very useful and allow sending 0's and 255's from the command line! (Synology doesn't have netcat)
