![]() ![]() Programming the ESP8266s via the Arduino IDE made things a lot easier and it meant that in many cases you no longer required an Arduino.īy now everybody should know that the ESP8266 is, in essence, a small microprocessor with built in wi-fi. This meant you could program them as if they were Arduinos, no more messing around with AT commands. Things changed when the ESP8266 core for the Arduino IDE was released. I put the ESP8266s away in the bottom of a draw and moved to Bluetooth. Things didn’t go as planned though, I found the AT command interface very clunky and the ESp8266’s not very reliable. I intended to use them in various projects where I wanted some kind of remote control. I got caught up in all the excitement and bought several different modules. ![]() Here was a new chip that was cheap and allowed internet connectivity. When the ESP8266 first came out there was a lot of excitement and buzz. Part 10d: IOT Monitor part 4 – the final project Part 10c: IOT Monitor part 3 – adding a LCD Part 10b: IOT Monitor part 2 – enhancing the webpage Part 3: Control an LED from a web page using Access Station Mode (ST) Part 2: Control an LED from a web page using Access Point Mode (AP) Part 1: The Esp8266 and setting up the Arduino IDE The post for the IOT Word Clock will come later, probably much later… Also, how I use the ESP8266 has changed and since I am using one as part of a IOT Word Clock I am currently building I thought I would update the guide. The old guide was out of date and had become a little messy and I had been thinking about redoing it for a while. ![]()
