Use ESP8266 as serial gateway?

Burre last edited by

Hi!

To simplyfy testing and remove the need to build a new gateway i was thinking, is it possible to use the serial/usb interface on the esp8266 gateway as serial (using the existing sketch)? Reading sensors data what way is no problem, but can I also send commands that way? Unfortunatly I only have sensors so I am unable to test.

Thanks in advance.

I would really like to get OTA working here as it's freezing outside and I have to go there to update the software in the greenhouse control system. So please, can we have a 'how to' step-by-step guide to OTA? Please? S.

@OldSurferDude Thanks! I didn't touch the Arduino IDE for a while and forgot that the MYSBootloader doesn't come included in the Mysensor's library... My bad. Thanks for the link! I should had searched first... I use the OTA feature since 2017... It works well. So well that I forgot how to load the bootloader... Regards!

Nice. I know there are RFM69's, but I've seen quite a few requests for the CC1101. Always good to have options. I did something similar with the WIO-E5 chips in my repo. The E5 is not quite ready for prime time, but the basics are working. I have many MySensors nodes, and still adding more. Good to see some new code for it.

It probably has to do with fewer people buying them once summer ends, so companies might lower prices to clear out stock before winter.

There are air quality monitors that can detect VOCs (volatile organic compounds), and some that claim to pick up marijuana smoke specifically. Devices like the Airthings Wave Plus, uHoo Air Sensor, or Plume Labs Flow could help identify changes in air quality. Another option is checking with industrial-grade smoke detection companies that provide sensors for businesses and schools, and some of them may also have solutions suited for home use. If you want more information on vape-related products, including how they work and their components, check out Geek Bar Pulse X Platinum Edition. Understanding vape devices can help recognize patterns of use or detect scents earlier.
