Let's Control It

TD-er

Thanks for reporting back.

TD-er

For PoE on that specific board you need some add-on module which is also sold via Ali. I have not tried this PoE add-on module myself for this specific board. I guess it is way less expensive to buy one of those PoE "dongles" like these IEEE802.3af/at PoE modules as they do cost next to no...

@max100
Can you report if the test build Ton made is working?
If so, then it can be included in the next upcoming build.

TD-er

You can use an ESP32-variant with Ethernet. For example ETH01-EVO , which does have an ESP32-C3. Just keep in mind that flashing Ethernet modules for the first time might be a bit tricky as most do not have an USB port so you need an USB to serial adapter and pull the "boot" pin to GND whe...

TD-er

To share sensor data to another ESPEasy node, you can have a look at the ESPEasy p2p controller: See: https://espeasy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/Controller/C013.html#c013-page The second one might be a bit more complex. Normally you could have a look at the "Domoticz MQTT Helper" plugin as d...

TD-er

Well at least for the "A" version of this sensor it was never documented.
To be more precise, there wasn't any documentation at first so most of it was found by trial-and-error.

TD-er

There have been MH-Z19 sensors permanently damaged by setting the range from 2000 -> 5000 ppm and also you don't have any factory calibration when changing the range. Also as far as I know, this was never an official published command. So it is unclear which firmware/module revision will allow this....

TD-er

Also why do you seem to really _need_ to connect GPIO-0 to GND? The web flasher should be able to put your device in flash mode, but I know there are some boards out there which do not seem to react well to the signals to put the board into flash mode. However if you keep pressing the "BOOT&quo...

TD-er

Nope, it is just the serial console of ESPEasy.

You can also open a console window via my web flasher tool if you don't have a proper terminal program on your PC.

TD-er

It is strange however that ESPEasy doesn't start the AP. Did you have other firmware installed on this exact node? Did you check the checkbox to erase the board while flashing? It looks like there might be some residual data left by the other firmware versions regarding WiFi credentials. Anyway if y...

TD-er

If you had to connect GPIO-0 to GND, you must make sure to remove it after flashing and then power cycling the board.
It is probably still in flash mode as that's what you force with pulling GPIO-0 to GND.

TD-er

I removed your IP range from the block list

TD-er

Ah can you send me your public IP-address via a direct message?
Seems like you're in my very extensive IP-block. (I get a lot of hack attempts to my server)

TD-er

Which board do you have? Not all build sets on my web flasher have binaries for each ESP32 platform. The web flasher will detect which ESP32 is present and select the correct bin file accordingly. In the pull-down selector there is a list in [] to indicate which ESP types have a build for that selec...

TD-er

Hmm not sure how well 3D printed shingles will hold outside.
Water may get in the seems and when it starts freezing, it may crack open.

TD-er

I know Prusa did have "Mystic Brown", which is a very nice color.
Too bad they don't have it anymore.

Maybe you can just go for some "Urban Grey" as that's by far the easiest PETG to print with and then prime it and paint it?

TD-er

Have you looked at Prusament?
https://www.prusa3d.com/en/category/filament/
And if it doesn't need to be PETG, you can choose more colors.
For example this one looks nice: https://www.prusa3d.com/en/product/prus ... gment-1kg/

TD-er

hard_Sonoff_POW build.
It includes the plugins for both the POW r1 and the r2.

TD-er

Such long cables, was that still serial or was it RS485? (or other variants with differential signals)

I know that using link cables > 5m was often an issue while copying data using Norton Commander or laplink or Ghostlink (I hope I don't mix up the names)
But those were using higher speeds.

TD-er

Those boards with display attached often are not easy to separate from eachother and extend the wiring as they will be using those flexible PCBs to connect. GPS over longer distance might not be a very good idea as the signal can pick up quite a lot of noise. You could however install some very basi...

TD-er

A very simple and cheap way to get proper idea of time without wander is to use a GPS module. Only requirement is to have a clear view to the sky. Well it does work on my desk too, but only a few hours a day in total... You can also add a RTC clock chip to it with its own coin cell to keep track of ...

TD-er

Just as a tip, you can easily test your strings by sending them to log using the command "logentry". This also does all string replacements. //Publish,energy/goodwe,'{"command":"udevice","idx":2509,"nvalue":0,"svalue":"%eventvalue4%&qu...

TD-er

You can send whatever you like via rules. For example act on the event of a new measurement and send all values using the publish command. See also documentation for formatting domoticz-syntax formatted messages: https://espeasy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/Rules/Rules.html#parameter-parsing Assuming yo...

TD-er

I wonder why it doesnt save the settings. Is your file system nearly full? As that can lead to strange issues when saving. Anyway it is best to backup your settings file ASAP before making more changes as it can get corrupted when such silent errors occur. Silent as in I also don't get any errors wh...

TD-er

You can try to call "erasesdkwifi", wait a few seconds and then power cycle the ESP.
This will try to perform a new RF calibration as the calibration data is related to the voltage applied to the ESP.

TD-er

Bad WiFi can be a symptom for sketchy power supply, especially when you didn't change anything else. If stuff suddenly stops working, then it likely is related to components going bad and the most common is the ageing of capacitors in a power supply. Typically the lifetime of a capacitor is rated as...

TD-er

First thought is about bad power supply, where the capacitors may have been ageing and thus loosing capacitance.
Is it a mains powered device, like some Sonoff?

TD-er

Also keep in mind that the ADC on both ESP8266 as well as ESP32 (classic) is quite unusable close to 0V.

TD-er

Measuring an analog value will be way more stable on an ESP. Especially on ESP8266. On ESP32 it might be that frequency counting is a lot more stable compared to ESP8266, but still it highly depends on how regular the counting registers are being read. And please don't use ESP8266 for new projects. ...

TD-er

You can have a look at the /json page.

TD-er

Why do you still want to use the ESP01 boards? I assume you at least have the ones with 1M flash? They are really really limited and if you need to use it in some board designed for this very limited form factor, there are ESP32-C3 versions with this exact form factor like the TTGO T-01C3. Those do ...

TD-er

Well the documentation is as sparse as can be, so let me explain it a bit more.... erasesdkwifi does erase the block on the flash memory where the closed source WiFi code made by Espressif stores the WiFi RF calibration data. Between SDK versions the layout of this data has been changed a few times ...

TD-er

As GPIO-16 is used, you probably can't use deepsleep on this board.

TD-er

That template is for an ESP32, you have a board with ESP8266

TD-er

The LC-tech plugin is intended to communicate with a separate microprocessor running its own firmware. This board indeed doesn't seem to have such a co-processor so it looks like you might be able to just toggle some GPIO pin. Just try to toggle GPIO pins and try not to use GPIO 6 - 11 as those are ...

TD-er

I meant 100 nF at the analog input of the ESP. It is just to suppress any noise picked up when using a longer cable. Took me a while to find the Dutch words in the schematic, but found them :) I can be blind to those myself as it is my "moerstaal" :) Do you use "oversampling" on ...

TD-er

You should use this in the formula field: %value%/19 (You had a typo in your post) And how is this sensor connected? Do you use a long cable? Have you tried adding some small capacitor close to the ESP over A0 and GND? (100 nF) Does your board have resistors soldered to the A0 pin? A lot of boards h...

TD-er

LilyGo does make very nice boards, but they also have the tendency to make a single example barely working with the then current SDKs. And repeat this every time they make a new board. In the past they even updated the boards with different (incompatible) parts without even updating the version numb...

TD-er

You can also use system variables instead of dummy tasks to keep track of those changes.

Or.... just leave it as it is now as it is now working

TD-er

Does LilyGo have some pre-compiled sketch for these displays you could try to upload?
Then you can verify if the display is still working.

TD-er

POW_2_Sensors#POW_2_Voltage This implies you have a task named: "POW_2_Sensors" and it does have a taskvalue named: "POW_2_Voltage" Please check the logs to see what event is generated. If you have checked the checkbox to send it all in a single event, then the event will be like...

TD-er

Did you between moving from Tasmota to ESPEasy wipe the flash?

If not, can you try giving the command "erasesdkwifi" and then power cycle the board?

If that doesn't help, please backup all files on the file system, flash a blank image, re-flash the firmware and restore the files.

TD-er

The picture on Ali Express states "IPS ST7789V 1.14 Inch"
So that's a different display.

Just for the record, it also states these pins:
MOSI: 19
SCLK: 18
CS: 5
DC: 16
RST: 23
BL: 4

TD-er

Maybe also check if it really is this display controller chip.
Wouldn't be the first time a seller sells something different from what was advertised.

TD-er

GPIO 16 and 17 can be a bit tricky as those are also used for PSRAM. If there is no PSRAM present, those pins can still have some high frequency signal on them every now and then. See: https://espeasy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/Reference/GPIO.html#best-pins-to-use-on-esp32 Do you see the backlight lig...

TD-er

The question is, how does it 'lock up'? Is it still sending data to controllers? Does it reply to pings? Complete freeze, not even a watchdog reboot? There are already several options built in, however some may of course only help if the ESP is still doing something. For example, if there is a bug w...

TD-er

If you name the task "Dummy" and the taskvalue is called "Switch", then the event will be "Dummy#Switch=...." with on the dots a taskvalue. Or if you checked to send all values in a single event, the event will be "Dummy#All=...,...,..." with comma separated t...

TD-er

If possible to set in your modem, you can disable "band steering" This will force a disconnect of any client on 2.4 GHz so they may reconnect via 5 GHz. By if you set ESPEasy to "force 802.11b/g" on the Tools->Advanced page, you will probably already have fixed nearly all those i...

TD-er

Please note you can't update via OTA on an 1MB flash unit.
So you need to flash via serial.

You could consider replacing the flash chip for a 4M version, which makes updating a lot (!!) easier.
Also 1M builds are quite limited to make it all fit.

"274" refers to Arduino SDK version 2.7.4 "312" refers to Arduino SDK version 3.1.2 The reason we're still not switching to "312" is that it leaves a lot less free memory and there are some issues which do occur on "312" and some on "274" (as there h...
