Rflink on esp8266?
Is it posible to put rflink on a esp8266 and use wifi for the connection?
Re: Rflink on esp8266?
Officially it's only supported on ATMega260 (Arduino Mega), but it seems it's possible to run it on ESP8266, since someone went through the effort to create PCB's for it: https://github.com/hallard/WeMos-RFLinkGer wrote:Is it posible to put rflink on a esp8266 and use wifi for the connection?
Personally I'm using an ordinary Arduino Mega (chinese clone) with an ESP8266 as serial<->wifi bridge, using this software: https://github.com/jeelabs/esp-link
It works very well with domoticz as a controller - but running everything on the ESP8266 would be nice

I tried changing the PIN definitions in Base.ino to match ESP8266 pins, and except for missing support for strncasecmp() (which I included manually), it did compile for ESP8266. I did not test the code and even if it works it would still only output the data on the serial portchrille wrote:but running everything on the ESP8266 would be nice

We might add support for wemos or so in the future.. right now priority lies with getting some other things working properly.

Re: Rflink on esp8266?
I am trying this as well, but with low success at the moment.
In summary, the Rflink connects once to Domoticz, then the connection is lost.
It have happened also a few times that while troubleshooting the ESP-1 lost its configuration. It showed up with the default SSID of easyesp and I had to reconfigure it again.
I sense that it has to do with the physical wiring of the Arduino Mega to the ESP-01
I use a signal voltage regulator for TX/RX between Mega/RFlink and ESP.
In this test, I powered the ESP with an external 3.3v power source.
Not quite sure what to do with the some of the pins on the ESP-1 (GPIO-0/2, Ch_PD)?
I would be extremely happy if somebody can provide a working wiring diagram.
As ESP software I am using the EasyESP with v120 configured for Serial server (57600 8n1)
From a software configuration point of view, I believe i dont have to configure anything else then the serial server in Easyesp, right?
The mega with RFLINK will adjust "automatically" from serial to ESP, as far as i understood reading this fora.
