namely Sonoff POW wireless switch with a power consumption monitor, I decided to install ESPurna firmware working on ESP8266 Sonoff devices and NodeMCU, as it’s open source, supports Sonoff POW natively, inclu
Starting with the MCUs that support Wi-Fi, you can use the official Arduino IDE to prepare the microcontroller to send and receive data from the MQTT Broker add-on available on Home Assistant. We assume you’ve installed Home Assistant on a PC/SBC/mini-PC and configured the Arduino IDE on...
To detect the wake-up, an LED will blink after the ESP8266 wakes from any given sleep mode. For this to work, connect an LED to the GPIO2 as shown below. To place ESP8266 into the modem sleep mode and later wake from a timer, use theespmodule. This MicroPython script puts ESP8266...
The computer presented here serves in my home as an MQTT display station. It is connected to Wifi, reads messages from an MQTT broker, displays and records them. It has an PS2 keyboard interface and can be used as a standalone system. Alternatively the programs on it can be changes via ...
Easy to use: it is easy to connect and easy to program with the ESP32. Doesn’t require a connection to the internet: so it’s an interesting solution in remote places. It can save data in different file formats. However, you need to take into account some of the following disadvantage...
Enable and Connect your Raspberry Pi with SSH. You needNode-RED installed on your PiandNode-RED Dashboard. Install theMosquitto broker on the Raspberry Pi. Add the ESP8266 or the ESP32 to this system. You can follow the next MQTT tutorials: ...

MQTT is a machine-to-machine messaging protocol, designed to provide lightweight publish/subscribe communication to “Internet of Things” devices. Mosquitto i…
If everything went according to plan you’re done and you should be able to control your shades via MQTT! Test it out by sending different values to the shades. Let’s talk briefly about the code. My code is fairly simple and utilizes the AH_easydriver library for stepper motors. The ...
While the example Sandeep put together used the lwIPweb server, there are a number of other library application examples we can grab and twist to our own ends, includingTFTPandMQTTexample applications. Beyond that, lwIP is a TCP/IP stack. Anything you can do over TCP you can now do from...
