Re: Driver for WS2812 RGB LEDs (NeoPixels, ...)

Just a side note:

Code: Select all

 return (int(r*256), int(g*256), int(b*256))
Should that not be 255 instead of 256? A solid 1.0 returns otherwise an overflow for the neopixel buffer (off instead of full bright)

Re: hiding python code on the board

I wrote this in a similar context already. It is always about how "secure" something should be. This is a typical 80%-20% problem You have to invest 20% of your resources (time, work, clever ideas and hacks) to make it secure against 80% of all possible attackers. From there you have to spend 80% of...

Re: Sonoff Touch with ESP8285 and Micropython

@cartere: Thanks for the input. From what I read, I have to use dio, since the internal flash rom is connected in the "Dual I/O" mode (-fm dio). I don't think that anything on the hardware site is going wrong, since I can upload arduino-based firmwares without a problem. It has to do something with ...

Re: Sonoff Touch with ESP8285 and Micropython

Hi, @kfricke thanks for looking into it. I looked a bit more into it. Indeed the oscillator on the PSF-A85 (which I believe is what they soldered on the sonoff touch) is a 26MHz version. And that should be e.g. identical with the WeMos units. Thus, different or strange baud rates could not be the re...

Re: Sonoff Touch with ESP8285 and Micropython

Seems to be a micropython problem. Today I tried an arduino sketch without problem. Serial terminal of the arduino ide as well as picocom worked at 115200 baud. Could be a problem of the external oscillator being 24 MHz instead of the usual 40MHz? Flashing seemed to work, verifying was okay, copied ...

Re: connecting to open wifi access point?

After weeks you are telling us, that we help you to hijack a wifi connection ;)

Did the other AP use the same ssid as the old one?

Do try to rename the ssid to the same name.... And see what happens

Re: New chip ESP8285

Hi, sorry for reanimation of this old thread. Could someone with a ESP8285 or even better a PSF-A85 from itead.cc comment on the problem I observed with the connection via serial to the REPL. Described here http://forum.micropython.org/viewtopic.php?f=16&t=2980 . I only receive garbage for any possi...

Re: connecting to open wifi access point?

connection data is stored in permanent flash memory. A reboot or power cycle will not help.
To proof kfrickes thesis, rename the AP ssid to something new and definitively unknown before and try again.

Sonoff Touch with ESP8285 and Micropython

Hi, did someone already try to get Micropython running on the itead.cc SonSoff Touch wall light switch. I managed to flash micropython on the (what looks to me like the PSF-A85 from itead.cc) board. Some people reported here that they managed to get MP running on that board. However, I can't get a R...

Re: Latest MicroPython compilation fails when compiling axetls because of -Werror use

EDIT: Sorry I overlooked the point... thought compilation failed for you.


Hi,

but this is just a warning. Gcc spits out many of them without real consequences.
If gcc fails there should be an error somewhere.
