This my review of a ESP8266 wifi IOT relay board supplied by ICStation.com
This is a module which can be controlled over its own access point, or connected to your wifi network. It only supports TCP socket communication, there is no MQTT or HTTP support

thank you for your video, you saved me more than the seller which has nothing about controlling. The application is not very familiar, buttons can't be graphical arrange and a button can't control two states like a switch, pressed first time to send a code pressing second time sending another code. For the beginning it's good even like this. Thanks again.

Very nice video Csongor. Well done with all necessary detail. The pilot wire in our central vacuum is shorted somewhere. Since the wiring is inside the wall, I cannot repair it. The vendor said I have to rewire the system pulling the pilot wire under the carpet, inside the wall, through the attic and under the house crawl space. The cost of the wire will probably be $100, not to mention the cost of labor. They also sell remote vacuum turn on for $180. So I turned to IOT. Using your video, I made it to work. To answer your question about Dynamic IP of the ESP8266, I assigned static IP for ESP8266 in the router. Everything is working like a charm and I spent less than $10. To complaint, I do not like the Wifi TCP/UDP Controller interface. Every time we lose power, I have to press the reset button and reestablish the communication. It may not be the software issue. It may be hardware issue. Anyway, thanks again for the nice video. Keep it coming.

If you want static IP, you can just tell your router to always reserve a specific IP for the MAC address of this wifi relay device.

Important: the Relay Board needs to be showing the RED diode and NOT the BLUE diode on the board. I was trying to switch the relay and nothing was happening. If you want to change back to mode 1 (with the red light) press S2 while booting the relay.

Hey great video very helpful! I was just wondering is there a way to communicate remotely using the app ie not on the same network as the module? Or is there a new version that does support this?
@csongorvarga
@csongorvarga 4 роки тому
Not really. I would not open these small units up to the wide internet. There is no security on these at all. Ideally these would communicate with a server on the local network and the server is accessible from the outside internet. But technically you can open forward the port on your router and it will be accessible from outside using the public IP.

Yes, it is necessarily odd design as the ESP can handle the same job without the additional MCU. But still OK for those who cannot roll their own board.

If it is like the single relay version then you should easily see that two of the pins are not connected. One is ground because it gets its ground through the device itself and the other is the TX pin which is why your not getting a signal back.

I am trying to connect it to my home Wi-Fi but I can't. None of those Android apps work anymore. I took out the esp8266 hooked it up with an Arduino, and connected it to the home Wi-Fi using AT commands. After that when I put it back on the relay board, it connects to my Wi-Fi momentarily upon boot, and then disconnects. Any idea why?

Yes and no. The basic ESP-01 UARTs are not designed as a programmer, but you can make some modification like I did: ukposts.info/have/v-deo/bqWSfY2ReoiE22w.html. But I also have another programmer which has the switch built in as well, like this red adapter: www.aliexpress.com/item/32971337222.html

If I understood correctly, you have to be in the same LAN to control the device? I have purchased a similar, but 4ch device and was hoping to remotely control the PSU of a 3D-printer. What would I need to control a device like this via the internet remotely ?
@csongorvarga
@csongorvarga 5 років тому
Yes, it has to be on the LAN. Technically you can open it up to the wide internet, using port forwarding, but this is not a secure connection, so you should probably not mess with that. As a standalone device I would recommend something which comes with a mobile app (and cloud service), like a Sonoff (Basic of 4CH).

Csongor Varga Awesome! Thanks for reply. I'm setting up a solar powered waterfall with some lighting. One more question and sorry if I'm assuming you know solar. But, would the main power lead to this relay supposed to come from my solar charger or directly from battery? I'm somewhat confused as how to wire this up. Thanks
@csongorvarga
@csongorvarga 6 років тому
I think the battery output of the solar charger and the battery is the same. But definitely not from the solar panels and they can have much higher voltage.
@milvolts1
@milvolts1 6 років тому
Csongor , your right solar produces more power and charger breaks it down for battery current charge. Be well, Thanks. I think I might need two chargers in parallel for this to work. What's your take?

I don't know. There is an another microcontroller on the board which is controlling the relays. The ESP talks to this microcontroller over serial. But I am not sure about how it is done. I have done a second video on this board where I flashed the ESP Easy on this. They have implemented the communication between the ESP and the micro. Maybe you could look at that code and figure out how it is done.

I am sorry, but I don't understand you. The ESP-01 module only has a few outputs, therefore you can only control 1 or 2 devices. You can use a bigger ESP8266 like a nodeMCU or Wemos D1 mini, where you have more pins.

@csongorvarga

Yes. But I would still recommend to have router. Even if it does not have internet connection, all devices connect to your router and when your phone connects to the same router you can control all of them, instead of having to connect to each of them individually. This is of course if you are planning to have more devices. And if you like Sonoff and don't want to build stuff on your own, you can also re-flash the firmware on that. You can write your arduino code, or use on of the available firmwares like ESPurna, Tasmota, ESP Easy and control them that way.

@El_IrregularDX 7 місяців тому
you can use this with the regular arduino firmware instead of the at firmware by removing the RX jumper and writing serial commands to control both relays, i forgot exactly how to but when i remember ill update this comment edit: here it is relay 1: Serial.write(0xA0); Serial.write(0x02); Serial.write(0x01); Serial.write(0xA3); relay 2: Serial.write(0xA0); Serial.write(0x02); Serial.write(0x00); Serial.write(0xA2); with this you can control them using Blynk IOT, remoteXY or homeasisstant, or even with another microcontroller

@@csongorvarga i did it, its on my github. but yes in most cases individual relay boards are a better option, i found a board with 8 relays for around the same price. the only benefit of this serial method is that it only uses 1 pin to control multiple relays, so if you're doing a massive iot project or your board has not enough GPIO, this could be useful

tiwar87 Not a separate video. They are all different. Http means that the device has a web server so you can navigate to a page from your browser. Tcp is simple data communication. In all these cases you are calling the device directly so you need to know its IP address. MQTT is a whole different story designed for such small devices.

To have a fixed IP address, just reserve the IP address that the module acquired first time, in the router's DHCP address reservation table.

You can locked down you IP address using DHCP. Assigning IP address to that particular MAC address.

You remove the ESP-01 module and program it separately. I have a separate video on how to put ESP Easy firmware on it: ukposts.info/have/v-deo/oY90oniaiJ2VqJ8.html. I don't know how to program the STM micro controlling the relay, so in my example, that code remains the same.

Van a rele nyak lapon feszultseg szabalyzo igy azzal nem lehet baj. De mivel kinai tomegtermekrol van szo az esp lehet hibas. De ha a wifi halozat latszik akkor az is mukodik...

You mean the relay is not working? I don't know how to reset the MCU either. Could be a broken unit.

Hi dear, I've bought 1 esp8266 module relay 12v 1ch and 1 esp8622 module 12v 2ch. I have used both esp01 for other arduino projects. Now I have a genuine esp01 ma it doesn't work with modules. Please, can you send me sketch to write into esp with Arduino ide? thanks 🙏

Yes, I realized that. You can assign a "fixed IP" to a MAC address on most routers. I found this out after the video.

@csongorvarga
@csongorvarga 4 роки тому
I don't know why it was designed this way. But it is. ESP could handle the Wifi and switching the relay as well, it would not need a separate MCU.
@connclissmann6514
@connclissmann6514 Рік тому
10 minutes in and the board comes across as disastrous, in that it is out of date and cumbersome. To be avoided! There are widely available, inexpensive, modern and accessible alternatives with an API and (if ever required) customisable firmware. Thanks for the review.
