Re: PCF8574 LCD driver for NonOs?

In general, Arduino drivers are source code based. I've never run across one that didn't compile and work on and ESP8266, especially I2C based components/drivers. If you already gave it a try, give more details about error conditions you ran into.

Re: [arduino ide] where to find ESP preprocessed file?

It is operating system specific AND instance of the IDE specific. Go into the Preferences, and check the verbose output for "upload"... the output will show you where it put the file before uploading to the ESP. It'll look something like the following on Windows using the Arduino IDE... on Linux, Ma...

Re: Complete Newby IDE issues

I believe you are not loading the correct esp8266 boards library. When I put the full name "ESP8266" in the search box, I get the library that is version 3.1.2. Your image shows something that is 2.3.

Re: problem on wake up from deep sleep

You'll need to give more information, like which esp8266 you're using - Bare, 01, 07, 12E, 12F, WeMos, NodeMCU... etc. You'll also have to include wiring if not one of the dev boards. Also, showing your source code is necessary. Otherwise, we'd be throwing darts blindfolded. This link is to another ...

Re: esp8266 compiling error

I'll assume your question is, "what does this warning mean?" It is explicitly saying... the library you're using is not compatible with your ESP8266. If you think the library developer is being too conservative, you can brute force it, so the compiler will try to compile it.

Re: Passing two credentials at initial boot over serial, not a Website

Cool! I'll take a look. Keep this or another thread updated as you add functionality. Sounds very interesting.

Re: Modbus TCP using STM32F446 Nucleo board and ESP8266

Apologies... I'm afraid I have zero knowledge about using ESP8266 with its AT command set even though that was its original purpose and even less about the STM product. I scanned the info on it and it seems its a microcontroller and your merely using the ESP as a dumb communications board. The Ardui...

Re: Uploading freeze

I have one of the red ones. I followed the instructions - switched to 'prog" mode and uploaded.....at one point the blue led flashed and then "hard resetting via RTS" and then.....nothing. I tried unplug/replug usb, same but switching to UART....nothing. In this application it is a relay switched u...

Re: esp-01 http send request simple arduino google sheet

I guess professional developers aren't going to lose jobs yet to AI. :) Give it a day or three more though... I'm glad I'm retired.

Re: Uploading freeze

Hi.....I am a newbie and I have the same problem. I understand this not an error but a status message. The module is an ESP 8266 ESP 01S and I am using a USB-UART - the type with a switch for USB/UART mode. I tried unplugging usb and re-plugging, same but flicking switch, loading a different progra...
