TUYA Dimmer Switch

#1 Post by galak » 04 Jun 2018, 04:40

I was looking for some help with trying to get a TUYA based dimmer switch flashed:

Here are a few links to the various device.

https://www.amazon.com/Benuo-UPGRADED-V ... itch&psc=1
https://www.amazon.com/Oittm-Lighting-I ... mer+switch
https://www.amazon.com/MIUO-Schedule-As ... mer+switch

The dimmer seems to be a combo of a Nuvoton 8-bit micro (N76E003) + A Tuya (TYWE3S) + Byd IT Capacitive Touch Key Controller (BF6911A22) from what I can tell. It seems like there is a UART connection between the Nuvoton & TYWE3S, but not usre how the touch key controller is connected. There doesn't seem to be any GPIOs on the TYWE3S

What I'm seeing when I try esptool to flash is:

Connecting........_____....._____....._____....._____....._____....._____....._____....._____....._____....._____

A fatal error occurred: Failed to connect to Espressif device: Timed out waiting for packet header

On a normal boot I see this on the UART:

Hello I am too intérréssé by the evolution of your search.
Because I look too for a solution of firmware alternative for a switch "dimmer" tuya

Have you had any luck with this switch/dimmer? I was able to read/dump the firmware on the switch without issue. Trying to figure out what they did with the UART on the TX/RX pins and how it is talking to the chip doing the actual dimming.

First of all, this is very experimental feature, because i do not own any dimmer device, so i am unable to test it. So absolutely no warranty... in theory this plugin should work with a standard Tuya dimmer.
If anyone needs support, please provide me at least test data from P020 Ser2Net plugin, or you can send me a dimmer switch to Hungary. :)

1. Make sure to disable serial logging (None) under Tools/Advanced
2. Enable Serial MCU controlled switch plugin
3. Set switch type to Tuya, number of relays to "2/Dimmer"
4. restart espeasy if something seems odd

You can freely rename Relay0 and Relay1 values inside the plugin. The first value holds the actual state of the relay, the second holds the dim value between 0-255.
commands:
set switch on:
relay,0,1
set switch off:
relay,0,0

set dimmer to 10%
ydim,25

set dimmer to 90%
ydim,229

Attached binary is compiled for 4M flash with 1M SPIFFS size.

Could you provide more details on this so I could compile one myself since the the module on this dimmer only has a 1MByte of flash.

Interesting. Devices with 8mbit flash typically can be flashed at DOUT mode, not QIO.
Earlier, when i am unable to flash a device, i missed the mode, sometimes GND->GPIO-0, and if there are something other connected at the RX/TX of the ESP, than it may also interfere...

1MB and 4MB version attached at this post for testing purposes.

For compilation you need minimum Arduino core for ESP8266 WiFi chip 2.4.0 because previous versions serial buffer fixed at 32 bytes, which is almost nothing, Tuya needs more.
Then you have to download P165 plugin from playground, copy into the ESPEasy 2.x source files, compile for the necessary platform and flash in the correct flashing mode. :)

So I got it setup this evening with the 1M flash, was acting weird on me, so I flashed the regular mega from github, factory defaulted, setup then flashed this one over top and it was all good then. I setup the switch as you said and sent the commands and relay 0,1 and relay 0,0 worked just fine. It turned things off and on without issue. The Ydim commands didn't do anything when I sent them, the other MCU must have just ignored them. I didn't get an error or anything from espeasy. I tried to turn on the SerNet thing and set it to 9600 8,N,1 then attached to the port via telnet, no commands would come across. I assume it was using that baud rate based on the Tuya docs. I'm trying to flash back to the Tuya firmware and see if I can do some additional digging. Pretty cool to see it close!

I think this might be what you are looking for.... I can see what it's doing in that last byte. It corresponds to the brightness from 1 to 255. Something probably just needs a small tweak in your plugin. Captured this from a serial monitor on the switch as I was turning it up and down via the app(cloud).

I see the issue...the order-id is a 03 instead of 02.:

void sendmcudim(byte dimvalue)
{
Serial.write(0x55); // Tuya header 55AA
Serial.write(0xAA);
Serial.write(0x00); // version 00
Serial.write(0x06); // Tuya command 06 - send order
Serial.write(0x00);
Serial.write(0x08); // following data length 0x08
Serial.write(0x02); // dimmer order-id?
Serial.write(0x02); // type=value
Serial.write(0x00); // length hi
Serial.write(0x04); // length low
Serial.write(0x00); // ?
Serial.write(0x00); // ?
Serial.write(0x00); // ?
Serial.write( dimvalue ); // dim value (0-255)
Serial.write( byte(21 + dimvalue) ); // checksum:sum of all bytes in packet mod 256
Serial.flush();
}

Talking to myself here tonight....ha! But it WORKS!!! YES!!! Modified your last piece to this:

void sendmcudim(byte dimvalue)
{
Serial.write(0x55); // Tuya header 55AA
Serial.write(0xAA);
Serial.write(0x00); // version 00
Serial.write(0x06); // Tuya command 06 - send order
Serial.write(0x00);
Serial.write(0x08); // following data length 0x08
Serial.write(0x03); // dimmer order-id?
Serial.write(0x02); // type=value
Serial.write(0x00); // length hi
Serial.write(0x04); // length low
Serial.write(0x00); // ?
Serial.write(0x00); // ?
Serial.write(0x00); // ?
Serial.write( dimvalue ); // dim value (0-255)
Serial.write( byte(22 + dimvalue) ); // checksum:sum of all bytes in packet mod 256
Serial.flush();

Changed the order-id and checksum, added one to each.

Thank you for your debugging, the dataset i see used order-id "2", so i suspect, that there are maybe devices with accepting id 2 and 3 also.
I will upgrade the source, with selectable ID. (2/3)
Your dimmer values returns in which TaskValue inside the plugin?

Thank you for your work and posts on this! It helped shove me over the edge on working on this thing again. I think where I failed on not picking up the data before was I wasn't sending the data from the cloud doing my snooping which made perfect sense after I realized my mistake after flashing ESPeasy on it and the switch still worked with the scaling lights on the front.

I'm not 100% familiar with the TaskValue thing, I'll dig around, I was just sending commands to it over HTTP URLs with CURL. I'm more of a Tasmota guy as that was the one I started with. I'll get back with you on it later this evening (US here).

You are welcome. Of course commands is the main "engine" of the plugin, altough on the Device page, you can see the relay(s) and if dimmer selected, then dimmer state at the right. (values names can be renamed at the plugin settings - in theory if dimmer id is 2 then at the second value, if id is 3 than the third value) When the device changes it's state, either by the buttons or with commands, a SendData event is generated, which sends the task values to the selected controller. (mqtt) Or it can be captured by Rules events for further processing. "Rules" is a very versatile tool, in modern Tasmota version's it is also appeared, but in ESPEasy it has more options. I dare to say that ESPEasy is the Swiss Army Knife firmware. :)

update - source fixed, now Dimmer#2 or Dimmer#3 has to be selected at plugin settings:

Unfortunately no values are shown. I'll have to do some probing on the RX side of the chip to see what packets are coming across to obtain the states from the manual user input.

EDIT: Snooped on the on the comms being sent to the ESP8266 from the dimming circuit. This is in uint8 display to make things easier. I wrote the "= ON" "= 5 " etc out to the right.

85 170 0 14 0 0 13 85 170 0 7 0 5 1 1 0 1 1 15 = ON (toggled)
85 170 0 14 0 0 13 85 170 0 7 0 5 1 1 0 1 0 14 = OFF (toggled)


85 170 0 7 0 8 3 2 0 4 0 0 0 176 199 = 5 (5 leds displayed)
85 170 0 7 0 8 3 2 0 4 0 0 0 100 123 = 3 (3 leds)
85 170 0 7 0 8 3 2 0 4 0 0 0 25 48 = 1 (1)

Will take a look at the plugin to see what needs to be tweaked shortly...

EDIT:

And a few in HEX...

55 AA 00 0E 00 00 0D 55 AA 00 07 00 05 01 01 00 01 00 0E

If you've selected Dimmer#3 in plugin the above datasets seems ok.

This is not needed, skipped = [55 AA 00 0E 00 00 0D]

[3] 7 means reporting; [10] 0=off,1=on state
_________|_________________|________
55 AA 00 07 00 05 01 01 00 01 00 0E
55 AA 00 07 00 05 01 01 00 01 01 0F
______________|_____________________
[5] 5 bytes following

[3] 7 means reporting; [13] dim value
_________|________________________|____
55 AA 00 07 00 08 03 02 00 04 00 00 00 B0 C7
55 AA 00 07 00 08 03 02 00 04 00 00 00 64 7B
______________|_|______________________
[5] 8 bytes following, [6] 3 = dimmer id

if Dimmer#2 selected then the dim value of ID 0x03 is not saved to uservar.
Can you see anything interesting in ESPEasy logs, when switching?

I haven't recompiled since you updated the plugin yet. I was just trying to verify the inbound states to the ESP before I flashed again. With the binary over 500k it's a such a pain to flash since I have to disconnect the ribbon cables, attach to the programmer, etc each time. I miss my easy OTA/HTTP flash with Tasmota. I tried to trim down ESPEasy down but it's still over 500k, not sure what else to remove.

I'll recompile, reflash, and try the new config again. Much appreciated.

I'll recompile, reflash, and try the new config again. Much appreciated.
Try 2 step OTA with ESPEasyUploaderMega:

I'll check that out as I don't want to break this switch taking apart the various pieces each time to flash as it doesn't like being flashed with all the other pieces hanging off of it. Thanks again.

I recompiled and selected the 3/Dimmer#3 and while things work fine with the commands via curl, it shows 0's across the board on the state. Changing the switch manually and even refreshing the page doesn't update the states.

I've tested with my 1 button Tuya switch and got the same results... after several recompile and reflash, i found out, that neither 2.4.1 nor 2.4.2 did not work, only the core 2.4.0 responds the status changes. :( I suspect some serial buffer underrun errors but did not figured yet, so please use core 2.4.0 for this device for now. Testing binaries attached.

Flashed your build and no change except for the core version of course. Still shows zeros on the status when I run my script through with the commands. I think I should have more time this evening to make me a little sketch with various serial commands and log the response back a little easier to see what is going on.

Please double check settings in ESPEasy Tools menu ->Advanced:

Enable Serial port: checked
Serial log level: None

Then try to disable/save/enable the P165 plugin device, and if no change, reboot device.

That did it! I had the serial port enabled, I was thinking that was part of the debug process so I had that disabled to prevent any conflicts. Interesting that the outbound serial worked with it disabled.

Good news.
If Serial is not enabled than "PLUGIN_SERIAL_IN" is never called by ESPEasy so communication will be one way. :)
On the other hand, if _Serial logging_ is enabled, than it may interfere the comm line.

do you guys think there might be any way of putting firmware in one of these Tuya devices Over-The-Air ?

I've bought a couple of bulbs, but there are no pads for RX, TX or GND.
Also the esp isn't accessible without destroying the bulb's housing :(

Any thoughts ?
