This ‘generic dupont set’ female-female works nice

simona · August 18, 2021, 7:34pm

can I have a picture of your logic board > adapter ? I’m curious

aceindy · August 18, 2021, 7:45pm

See post 1….still using the same as when i started.
i cut my dupont cables, after i found a fit header plug on some old pcb…but dupont would fit both sides (tip, use super glue to head them together )

I’m thanking @aceindy @paddy0174 @n1k5y
for patience and helpfulness. I’m totally unready and beefeding but you are continuing to supporting me.

Let us know how things work out!

Btw. I’m using the exact same components as aceindy, I just pushed the female connectors directly onto the pins (of the A/C and the ESP).

Running for more than half a year without any problems. Even not updated, as I’m way too lazy to update via FTDI (OTA is not available with my small ESP)…that would mean I need to climb up to the A/C, disconnect and so on. Must wait until the end of summer, when I clean my A/C to shut it down for the winter.

I tried on a spare esp, and ota works nowadays (only took me a while to actually swap them )….i guess the original bins we created with the devs repository was bigger than the main repository is now

Some ESP-01S and own serial to serial shifter board as come home, so I generated a suited ESPhome config and tried to installing it on the chip using a generic CH340G and a generic PL2303 USB to TTL, with and without the serial/serial shifter board, but ESPhome dashboard failed the installation, refusing the connection.
Perhaps the original ESP-01 USB to TTL is needed?

paddy0174 · August 19, 2021, 2:42pm

I’m using this adapter to flash my ESP boards. I have the CH340G as well, but couldn’t get it to work.

EDIT: @aceindy Just tried to flash OTA, still no joy… I’ll test with a stripped down file (only OTA) ad try again. Otherwise I’ll need to check if I can use the logic level shifter with an ESP32 (found one lying around in the garage shop

aceindy · August 19, 2021, 4:13pm

@paddy0174 I had to use an empty ESP01 ( as the one in use has too little RAM available)
But with this image i can reflash over and over

I connected the nodeMCU to AC via ESP-01’s logical shifter board and i think it’s found/recognised by the AC’s logic board, because the WI-FI icon on the display lights up 30/40s: as the same time as other ACs mounting the original MIdea key, but HA still not able to manage the “modded” AC (Disimpegno).

There are some other items that can be useful for troubleshotting?

Go to your ESPHome dashboard (in your left pane “ESPHome”):

What does the status icon/bar say for your node? Is it “online/offline/unknown status”?
If online, press the “LOGS” button for your node.
Choose the wireless connection.
A pop-up should open, there you have the ESP logs.
Post the first 80 to 100 lines from the log. Hint: the log scrolls automatically, if new entries are coming in. Just scroll up in the log window and it will stay at that line. New lines will be added, but it will not scroll automatically.

despite the nodeMCU being online

the logger can’t reach it

in the ESPhome device config i have

Is that section incomplete ?

Sorry, I missed that one. Your logger entry must be

logger:
  baud_rate: 0

This disables logging on the stick (that’s what we want). Please add this line, re-flash the board and report back.

look above. resolved

paddy0174 · August 19, 2021, 6:46pm

So it’s finally working? Great to hear!

Have fun with your locally controlled A/C.

I think the module is working, but there is an issue in HA configuration…

paddy0174 · August 19, 2021, 6:50pm

So it’s still not showing up correctly in HA? That’s unfortunate.

The node is working as it should, right?
What is the actual status in HA? Is it still the same as in your pics above?

simona · August 19, 2021, 6:50pm

yeah, no changing status

simona · August 19, 2021, 6:55pm

what do you mean for node?
