Wiring/flashing

A programmer is needed to flash this device.

  Programmer     ESP
  TX      <-->   RX (fourth pin seen in picture above)
  RX      <-->   TX (third pin seen in picture above)

  Power
  7-32V    <-->   VCC (input power, also 5V USB can also be used)
  GND     <-->   GND (input power)

In order to get the unit in flash mode the GPIO-0 needs to be LOW. If you have soldered pin headers to the "key" vias you can use a jumper between "COM" and "KEY1".
