Let's Control It

Yes, tablet manually connected to 'standard' WIFi again.

Router is showing same IP address for new ESP device as the device itself.

obod0002c

I now flashed all the three factory-bin's, and everytime the tablet can connect to the device's WiFi (looks like Android has had changes here, too), however, I dont' manage to get the device out of 'ap mode':
Warning: Connected via AP

Can't connect to the device with the IP shown, obviously

Thanks a lot for your feedback, very helpful - also to rearrange my thoughts, what I'm thinking I might need! create a custom dashboard for users some of 'my' users don't know how to operate a mobile but a switch - yeah, I know, irritating, but that's the way it is. a battery operated wireless butto...

Is that because it's not electrically safe, or no GPIO pins available anymore?

neither nor, it's just because this setup is in fact within WiFi reach but far away from the users .. no chance to get a wire from A to B.

obod0002c

just connect a button to a GPIO

unfortunately I do not have the possibility to wire a button to the ESP.

obod0002c

As you know I'm currently installing new ESP based hardware. I'm really loving to access it via ESP Easy Mega software with all of it's possibilities. However, sometimes, I'd just like to push a button and initiate an action - no mobile, no tablet. Unfortunately neither cable nor IR will do. Battery...

obod0002c

not sure if with no access to the project I can see/download those

obod0002c

That's a rather old release.

Yep, but 'cause of the lengthy warning for Release mega-20220809 that was the most up to date with no such text

obod0002c

I'll try the factory ones tonight.

Regarding the temperature sensor GPIO: I thought I just browse through all the GPIO's but that gave my '-127.00' for all of them ..

obod0002c

THANKS for the warnings, you can't be cautious enough! I'll stick to the temperature sensor delivered with the device .. especially as this sensor is super close to house water installation and hence almost all metal around everywhere. I'm also struggling a bit on which mega release to take, most of...

obod0002c

Thanks a lot for your post and link, very informative. From what I understand TM1621 should be the display - which, for the time being, I won't use. Maybe later after the basics are working ;) But can you tell what the GPIO for the one relay might be and where to find the temperature sensor? As far ...

obod0002c

Hello again, I'm trying to control my new toy: a SonOff THR320D for checking if the hot water pump needs to run (controlled by changes in the temperature read).. I managed to backup the original firmware and was to able to load a new one .. however I haven't manage to find the GPIO's for the three L...

Indeed

obod0002c

Thanks for the example.
However, the not-function seems to not work (maybe intrinsic 'cause of its name

)
A less sophisticated coding does:

Code: Select all

on Button1#State=0 do
  if [Relay1#State]=0
    GPIO,12,1
    Relay1#State=1
  else
    GPIO,12,0
    Relay1#State=0
endon

before disposing it off finally, I tried flashing ESP_Easy_mega_20211105_normal_ESP8285_1M and guess what .. it's working. ;) glad I tried.

obod0002c

I somehow got the impression of hickups that occurred during upload / processing the lengthy rules (5k) and resulting in high load and little RAM. Might be a wrong assumption though ..
Trying to understand the last post, thx

obod0002c

I also see only details posted here by me a few 'days' ago:
TYWE2S, ESP8285

obod0002c

with constant pings on, the device accepted all changes of its rules and load decreased to <15%
How come? Can I trust the device to operate reliable, also no extra - just give me one, only one - ping?

obod0002c

The devices are connected to the same AP. Sockets are close to FRITZ!Box (mesh active), exchanging devices or unplugging the good one does no change for the better. Poor soldering: had to solder some cables for flashing firmware and those as well as the Dupont connector are still within the device. ...

obod0002c

not sure, where this new challenge is located: hardware, software, soldering skills, ... I do have three device up and running, more or less identical firm- and software. Two device are as well 'identical' ones: https://internetderdinge.blog/produkt/teckin-smarte-aussenteckdose/ However, device 'A' ...

obod0002c

This is not going to work:
if %ip% = 192.168.178.52

in the afterglow this makes sense.

Pity, I had chosen a test before that worked .. for the last !! of the three devices (can I call this 'worked', hmm

)

Thanks so much. Cheers

obod0002c

hmm, getting lost even more .. What I'm trying to do: setting up three devices (two differing, two identical ones) using the same rules for all three. I'd like to differentiate the devices by their fixed ip addresses. on System#Boot do TaskValueSet 6,2, 74 // identical setting regardless of device e...

obod0002c

Thanks for your posts.

Meanwhile I believe it's due to the standard 60sec in the Device's-tab for this item - although I thought it might set the values first and THEN run down the counter to update them 60seconds later

obod0002c

Hi, beg this has been answered somewhere .. but I don't find it and I also don't get it solved .. When (re)booting my device, system variables as e.g. %ip% or the fourth octet of Devices -> System Info -> IP does not seem to be loaded. Looks like that takes some time? How can I have my ESP wait for ...

obod0002c

As I'm a bit concerned about this, maybe one of you has already a solution to my problem: I've been using my Raspberry to control a small irrigation system for garden and plants. However, I'm a bit scared, that, if my raspberry hangs, breaks, doesn't do what it's supposed to do, the water flow will ...

obod0002c

all notifications during the last few days arrived reliably

obod0002c

nothing of any importance but maybe helpful for beginners who are struggling with other problems. the binaries must have been renamed, so none of the bin-files will be selected, by none of the two really helpful scripts described here: https://www.letscontrolit.com/wiki/index.php?title=Flash_script_...

obod0002c

I'll come back when some more reliable results are available

obod0002c

maybe I did not follow the workflow to upload a new firmware (if there's one or maybe there're small hurdles when rules are in place). I factory reset the device, swapped between old and new firmware a few times (now I'm back in state 'fit for flash' :P ) and - bingo - everything seems to work: upda...

obod0002c

not sure if this is what you need:
changing rules -> save -> no reply
but uptime increases

obod0002c

had it working - ONCE, 'cause saving rules seems to have changed. 'Submitted' is missing pretty often and Rules Set 1 is empty afterwards. Anything which has changed here? Now running ESP_Easy_mega_20200608_normal_ESP8285_1M. Same hardware

during my last absence I wanted my gas heating to be turned off but me being able to switch it on again a few days before we expect to come home so the floor heating has the chance to warm the rooms up again.

looks like this one is ESP powered: Outdoor TECKIN 16A 4000W Teckin two sockets 'outdoor' plug (TYWE2S, ESP8285) seems to work fine with ESPEasy Tested: ESP_Easy_mega-20191127_normal_ESP8285_1M.bin Lower LED (blue) = GPIO 4 Upper LED (green) = GPIO 5 Left socket = GPIO 12 Right socket = GPIO 14

obod0002c

thanks a lot for your good advices.

It's outdoor but sheltered or the other way round.
There's a circuit breaker and we have been using the sockets for some years now for timer switches and irrigation systems and inflatable santas

obod0002c

Is that also what you're doing? Before I started to use ESPEasy I had to learn that omnipresent hints don't work all the time: do not use DHCP, assign a fix IP address, switch off this and that, somehow make sure you get to the lowest possible level to set almost the final bit ... for my router / n...

Forgot to mention capacity of LiFePO4, sorry: the capacity of the 18650 I talked of for my outdoor sensor is 1.6Ah for an incredible price of less than 2€.

obod0002c

after some months of using different ESP's my personal favorite is LiFePO4: easy to handle, quite safe, long lasting, no buck or boost needed. If it's feasible to post back low voltage not even an underprotection circuit is needed. One of the outdoor ESP-12's has been running since mid June, current...

obod0002c

I've seen some more outdoor plugs, also those with two outlets - are there any you know of that work with ESP Easy?

obod0002c

sorry, wasn't able to follow here for quite some time.

TD-er wrote: ↑27 Sep 2019, 11:08 You could try, using the setup options of ESPEasy flasher.

Think I had checked that, unfortunately not with success.

If there anything else I could do to make it work?

obod0002c

no, not really.
When storing config isn't possible will setting up device while connected to the power will work? Then I could check with URL-commands and 'taskvalueset'.

obod0002c

I tested all three firmwares *8285* as well as a 1M for 8266 of the Release mega-20190903.
None was able to save and recap configuration
