its working, it was the LLC. no idea how but if I change it to another LLC (I have a few 8 channel sat around) everything works. So happy this works!!! thanks so much for your help

removed the other resistor, no change. Tried also with removing the LLC entirely also no change. LEDs wise, I have the ON led also list and occasionally a flashing SCK led, the ESP itself flashes whenever I try to send a command so looks good. If I connect both the TX and RX pins together and...

hmmm done exactly as you have, still doesn't connect. Ive also completely redone fresh with a new LLC and all new terminals. No commands being sent. I thought first if I move the 5v around to lower down as I (thought) the 5v on the top side was for input and your LLC is powered via the Pi /...

so ive flashed ESPlink, setup as you've done and it connects to my wifi, removed the resistor (well left it half attached). Connected via 12v everything boots but I can't send any commands. Checked wintex Is set as port 23 and the esp link IP Can you send a photo of how you've connected it to...

oh wow I didn’t expect to see a message like this so soon! Congrats, I can’t tell you the stress this has caused me I think I have the same wemos D1 esp8266 clone board as you. If I’m reading right you didn’t need to add any new hardware you simply changed your GPIO pins from 01 and 03 to 13...

Happy to throw some £ your way for hardware as I hate not getting to the bottom of this Edit, just to add, ive tried multiple boards, with and without the LLC, different pins you name it. I'll keep that issue linked above active as hopefully gets the developer having a look too.

ive raised a topic with the dev of stream server is debug logs look little funny: https://github.com/oxan/esphome-stream-server/issues/54

I think im hitting the same problem you did, even though I can flash the ESPhome firmware, (and see it launches 'stream-server') no data is actually being exchanged from the texecom board.

you are correct Can you tell this is my first time Sadly I did fry the ESP board with the 12v (connecting and reconnecting) so got another coming tomorrow. Still powers on via usb though. ive configured wintex to also call up the port listed above, and I get some success, I can see in...

so I have compiled and got it installed, changed my wintex config to call up the new port from stream server, it BRIEFLY connects and shows in homebridge with the accessories then crashes :( (way over my head) esphome: name: texecom-creston friendly_name: texecom-creston esp8266: board...

Sorry for the the stupid questions as i re-read your first page on the thread I’m at a loss why you needed the level converter or the resistors (as per your bottom picture on page 1). I assume you used the level converter was just for 'safety' when connecting from the D1 to the texecom as the...

Basic ESP8266, happy to buy a D1 instead though. Just fancy a challenge now I know the pi works

Just want to test my logic as I’m going to give it a go on the ESP8266 just to be sure if ESPhome was causing the problem. I’m a little lost on the hardware side of things. The ESP8266 runs at 3.3v already, so when I use the 12v DCDC power converter to 5v am I connecting this directly to the...

Incidentally I’ve just found this: Temped to give it a go now I’ve got the pi working https://www.leocrawford.org.uk/2023/06/21/connecting-texecom-premier-using-esp8266.html

Are you also using Ser2Net? what other code have you used?

you were right, it was my YAML - not sure how it got messed up. tested everything and FULLY working. You’ve cracked it!! Congrats! All working with my homebridge and home assistant plugins

"Network Error: Connection refused" I assume this is my ser2net not correctly installed?

Hmmm tried putty on windows and on mac still getting connection refused, I can SSH as pi ok though. Any thoughts? Soldering looks good and all clean connections. Any other way to test hardware is working correctly rather than something in the YAML? Does my config look good?

LUCKILY i spotted as i was about to connect to the board, the image you posted above with the pin out I guess was the Pi 4 or 3 so I’ve switched it all around. Whilst I wait for my case ive just stuck it in foam to protect shorts Got it all connected up and it boots, now to install and report...

I’ve soldered everything up and checked everything over, just can’t work out where you’ve attached the 12v power on the rail (Texecom main board), can you highlight it please? Or are you using the 12v from the battery?
