Hi, I was wondering if I could use this board: https://robotdyn.com/uno-wifi-r3-atmega328p-esp8266-32mb-flash-usb-ttl-ch340g-micro-usb.html I was considering this board with the Sketch for a 2 phase setup where i need more inputs than on one EmonTx (so looking at 2 monitoring boards). The other a…

[image] Using the EmonTx v3 with the ESP8266 Huzzah WIFI module I was wondering if I could use this board: UNO+WiFi R3 ATmega328P+ESP8266, 32Mb flash, USB-TTL CH340G, Micro-USB - Robotdyn I was considering this board with the Sketch for a 2 phase setup where i need more inputs than on one EmonT…

So, are you saying suck it & see? I want to use 2 boards with Sketches, Wif connected back to the Emon Base. I will order the hardware & try it then. (The boards are a reasonable price off AliExpress: <a href="https://www.aliexpress.com/item/UNO-R3-WiFi-ATmega328P-ESP8266-32Mb-memory-USB-TTL-CH340G-For-Arduino-Uno-NodeMCU-WeMos-ESP8266/32949901402.html?spm=2114.search0204.3.212.7d263d6dMI446N&ws_ab_test=searchweb0_0,searchweb201602_2_10065_10068_10130_10547_319_317_10548_10696_10924_453_10084_454_10083_10618_10920_10921_10922_10307_537_536_10131_10132_10133_10059_10884_10887_100031_321_322_10103,searchweb201603_2,ppcSwitch_0_ppcChannel&algo_expid=4a8077d7-befc-4b75-a837-c1379cee11b7-32&algo_pvid=4a8077d7-befc-4b75-a837-c1379cee11b7" rel="noopener nofollow ugc">https://www.aliexpress.com/item/UNO-R3-WiFi-ATmega328P-ESP8266-32Mb-memory-USB-TTL-CH340G-For-Ard…

In @Dougo ’s other thread about this, I was going to look at linking two emonTx’s via the FTDI ports (using the same overall scheme as Martin Roberts’ “Full Fat” setup, but as he’s buying these boards, I shall not pursue that.

Thanks. I have ordered the EmonTx Arduino shield. & the Arduino with Wifi as before. I thought about connecting 2 EmonTx with serial, but it is not expandable beyond 2 (to my understanding), but with the Wifi as many as is required can talk to the EmonBase, via Wifi. It is already being used, so no…

Hi, I hav been reading through the previous thread (that forked to this one). I wish to ask some basic questions about the firmware: I take it that the EmonCMS is running in the 8266? If this is the case, can I still use a local RPi to aggragate & form the data so I can use the data management to…

Hi, hoe all who celebrate had a merry Christmas. I received my board from China yesterday. It looks like it will work OK. i have built my EmonTx Arduino shield. My issua atm is that I cannot see where to change the config in the Firmware source for the bigger Ram on the ESP8266: it has 8Mb (so do…

Hi, well, I checked further, & the board I have is fitted with a 32Mbit chip, so equivalent to the Huzzah. Now just learning about PlatformIO: took a bit of thought, but now working OK. Just need to workout the address of my USB port for the upload (I use PCLinuxOS, & have for many years!) Gettin…

[image] Dougo: Just need to workout the address of my USB port for the upload Hi Doug, Try ls -la /dev/{tty{ACM,AMA,S,USB},serial}* Thanks for the handy one-liner, @PB66 . :wink:

Hi, I loaded the ESP8266 with EmonESP & the Arduino with Serial firmware for the sketch. The EmonESP started with the EmonESP-xxxxx, but also the ESP s/w showed a login as well. The EmonESP will not reliably connect (Logs off after abt 20s). I think I will try to load the Huzzah boot-loader, & se…
