Is that the only thing missing? How about a screenshot of your tools page.

budman1758

From the "tools" page you scroll down and you will see Load new firmware.

budman1758

You can use a workaround. If you use the "framed" OLED and a regular OLED at the same time that works fine. As long a they are on different I2C addresses then it works no problem. Have a couple units doing it for some time now.

budman1758

I know that there have been problems with ESPEasy running 2 of the same I2C devices at the same time. For example if you attempt to use 2 OLED devices of the same type it will not work correctly even if the I2C address are different and they are separate tasks. This may be the problem in your case. ...

budman1758

Can you provide more information on your setup? Wiring, cable lengths, ESP module and what particular version of the firmware you are using?
This might help.....

Please keep n mind that ESP Easy for the ESP32 is still in the experimental stage.

budman1758

Try selecting "inversed logic" in your switch setup.

budman1758

If used as an output a GPIO pin does not "require" a task to function. I think that the status can also be used in the rules in the newer MEGA builds too. Not sure of the complete rules syntax for that tho.....

budman1758

Yes. Inputs need to be defined each as a task. Outputs do not.

The unit gets the actual time from my router (functioning as a local NTP server to all projects). It does nothing with the time for now, as the MQTT broker also uses the NTP server. it also can get a variable from the MQTT broker/Node RED. Thanks for that. However the main thing is not so much the ...

This is an extension/reboot of another topic that kinda diverged from its original subject so I thought it deserved a new topic. https://www.letscontrolit.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=32374#p32374 The goal here is to use the DS3231 RTC to enable deepsleep for longer than the ESP's built in limit of app...

Hi Guys, This is right on the edge of my knowledge, but I wonder if something like this could give a suitable pulse to the esp? http://www.electronics-base.com/general-description/control/24-ne555 They are pretty cheap. Would need to think about and minimise the power draw though. Perhaps the esp c...

budman1758

I am fairly sure whats going on now after searching the web. There are definitely 2 output types for the alarm function. Type 1 is an active low and the other is a square wave signal. I think the current working with this plugin is a square wave output because instead of a zero volt reading on my me...

budman1758

Finally got around to testing my setup with this plugin. I have a couple things that are a bit fuzzy though. The RTC module seems to be working as it should. The alarm function is one of the things I was most interested in and its working but not as I expected it to. I was under the impression that ...

budman1758

Looking at the picture on the right if you look closely at the actual relay you will see they are 12 volt relays. So the relays need 12 volts to trigger. It MAY be possible to trigger them with 3.3 volts because they use opto-isolators but I would test that with a voltage source other than the ESP t...

budman1758

Yes of course i can compile a 4M version, but are there any other plugin that you need? I am using only a subset of the available plugins, my version is attached. Thanks. At the moment I don't see anything missing that I would need. My project idea is some battery powered, solar recharged remote so...

budman1758

I'm just finished a test version of my DS3231 plugin. It keeps time when power down, even without NTP server, and shows temperature information, the latter is new to me. I struggled a little with timezones when updating from ntp to rtc, but now i think it is working. Alarm mode works in theory, but...

Cool budman! Didn't know the rules engine could parse that many ifs. To be honest I dd not try the above but in my keypad setup it does the 12 possibles that the keypad puts out. I would imagine that there is some upper limit but have no idea what it would be. As a side note the speed problems I wa...

I am reasonably sure the command works the same for either 1 or 0.

budman1758

As long as each device has a unique I2C address then ESPEasy can read each device. Problem with your setup is I do not believe there is currently any support for the Atlas Scientific devices you mentioned. There needs to be a "plugin" to support the devices. As of now I do not believe ther...

budman1758

Does this also have the "fix" for I2c? There were a lot of problems with I2c and somewhere I read someone on Git had a work around or complete fix for that issue.

budman1758

Seems like things have kinda died down around this project. Is it still being actively developed? Just curious.

budman1758

This would be a nice feature. Methinks the simplest way to accomplish this would be the ability to enable or disable a task with rules.
Sounds like a good prospect for a feature request on Github.

https://github.com/letscontrolit/ESPEasy/issues

budman1758

Sounds great!! Hope the help floods in and you guys can keep afloat. You can count me in! I just signed up on the Patreon site.

budman1758

Sounds like a great idea to me!!

budman1758

I have requested a plugin for an RTC a couple times. The DS3231 would be perfect. It has configurable timers and could be used in battery powered sensors to get around the 71 min ESP limit. I'm sure folks would come up with multiple use cases for it.

budman1758

I too would li8ke to know what the commands to write to the display have changed to. If it has changed it would be nice to know the differences are.

budman1758

I believe there are some as yet to be documented features in the newer firmwares that will make those transformations. See these links.

You can make just about any motor work with ESPEasy. Just a matter of the correct relay setup and such. Same with limit/position switches.
The big question here is the actual door hardware to use. What kind of door? How big is it?
These are questions you must answer B4 we can recommend much.

budman1758

Hello Soif. Is there any chance you could make a bin file with this plugin available? I have the H801 controller. My compile skills are still not quite ready for primetime.

Would really like to try this. Thanks in advance.

budman1758

I haven't used MQTT yet but I'm fairly sure it can do the same thing. No doubt someone will come along here and offer some help along those lines.

This android app can control stuff on ESPEasy devices.

Works well if all you need is simple on off control on your phone. I use it a lot.

budman1758

If you do not need the serial monitor after flashing the unit you can disable serial in hardware settings and use either rx or tx pin as a regular gpio.

budman1758

Well.... At the risk of sounding like a smart-ass it's doing what its intended to do. It will keep counting up until hell freezes over. You need a formula to process the count. You need to figure out how much rain is in a bucket tip and process it with a time frame reference. Perhaps a study of the ...

Looks pretty clear and concise to me.

Its best to put bug reports on Github. Easier for the Devs to find them there.

You don't need to be a Developer to have a Github account.

budman1758

Don't know if its relevant to the crash you are having but the setting in your OLED display for line 1 looks strange. You have a "#" in an odd spot.
Never seen that and it may cause an issue.

budman1758

it's a bit old. The forum I mean.

I like it. Its easy to read and completely uncluttered by ads and other BS and junk.
Have you tried to find anything in the ESP forum?? Sheeeeeesh!
