If you connect from sketch to unaccesible network or with wrong password, the Web Panel will not be accessible in STA mode. Warning: If you connect from sketch with WiFi.begin(ssid, pass), it changes the settings for the STA mode of the esp8266 for the Web Panel too.
The WiFi Link fixed address in AP mode is. The AP network name is set as SSIDNAME in config.h. The device connects in STA mode to the selected WiFi network and is accessible at IP address assigned by a DHCP or a static address set in Web Panel. User connects to the WiFi network created by a device, goes to fixed IP address URL and configures the network access in a Web Panel. Web Panel network configuration uses the configuration Access Point (AP).

Web Panelīefore connecting to WebPanel after serial flashing of firmware, power cycle the module/board/shield. Then choose "ESP8266 Sketch Data upload" from Tools menu. With serial port you must put your board/shield/module into flashing mode in it doesn't support reset on DTR. The tool builds the SPIFFS binary and uploads it to selected port. This plugin creates a "ESP8266 Sketch Data upload" command in Tools menu. We installed a plugin tool in chapter "Install esp8266 packages". You can add your own files and they will be accessible on expected url. In subfolder data of the source codes of the WiFi Link firmware are the static web files (html, css, js) for the Web Panel. Use the Upload button in IDE to upload the WiFi Link firmware. Connect it to USB of the computer and if it doesn't support DTR, put it into programming mode with dedicated button. Setup your esp board/shield/module for flashing. The first compilation after changing the board will take time. Now verify the sketch with the Verify button. Erasing all SDK parameters can help if you experience WiFi connection stability issues.

If changing from prebuild firmware, changing LwIP option or after a update to new version of esp8266 Arduino core package use "All flash content" to erase all parameters set be Espressif SDK. To preserve SPIFFS and WiFi credentials use option "Sketch only". "Erase flash" option is new in esp8266 Arduino package 2.4.1.Optimal flash size selection for WiFi Link is "4M (1M SPIFFS)".Debug options: Disable and None is the basic setting.CPU frequency option - recommended 80 MHz 160 MHz produces more heat and has a higher power consumption.Set hardware depended options like crystal frequency, flash frequency, flash mode, flash size, led, reset. In Tools menu select board options and choose your board/shield/module or Generic ESP8266 from the ESP8266 section of the Boards menu. It opens additional files as tabs in IDE. Start Arduino IDE and open the ArduinoFirmwareEsp.ino sketch.

Open or extract the downloaded zip and copy the folder ArduinoFirmwareEsp from zip to your sketches folder. Every GitHub repository has a green "Clone or download" button which opens a small menu.

To install it using boards manager, follow the instructions.Īdditionally, install the Arduino ESP8266 filesystem uploader IDE plugin Download the source code You need the esp8266 core for Arduino IDE. The WiFi Link firmware is an Arduino sketch so you can build it in Arduino IDE and upload it to ESP from Arduino IDE.īuilding WiFi Link firmware from source files gives you possibility to build the newest version, build a branch version, build some fork version or change something in source code you need. The corresponding Arduino library is WiFi Link library. With changes in this fork, it can be used with any esp8266 in combination with an Arduino MCU. It was developed for the Arduino Star Otto, Arduino Primo and Uno WiFi Developer Edition. The WiFi Link firmware is an ESP8266 arduino sketch developed by in Arduino IDE using Arduino esp8266 core. The goal of this fork is make improvements and provide documentation.
