This looks like a really nice project I can use this all over and will try it out first, thanks for your effort. If this works for me I will definitely be buying a licence.
sir i have a question who will esp8266 know the real time status of Switch whether its ON/OFF which sensor is used to analysis the real time status please do guide us
hi, after configuration device not showing in cadio app can u tell me what's the problem and sometimes com port also not showing while downloading the firmware in esp32
Sorry sir, I want to ask. 1. what is the maximum number of relays that can be controlled by cadio? 2. Is there any guide in confirming for ESP with multiple relays? is there a daily weekly schedule menu? 3. Can Cadio be accessed via PC? Thank You
Do I need to connect ESP and Phone to same WiFi network for this project to work? Actually, I need to control remote lights/appliances through ESP using home WiFi network and by phone app using mobile internet from a very far location.
I update my ESP automation project daily but occurs many errors in code. After seeing your video my work is wrost ☺️ it really good. I will try it now then tell you how it works 😃
Make sure that the esp flash download tool setting is correct exactly like the picture here: egycad.com/cadio/docs/firmware/esp8266-firmware/ and after installing the firmware, reset the esp, after 15 seconds, leds will blinking, and the esp wifi network will start.
It looks fantastic bro. Is there any API to work with nodered? If yes, it is perfect. Again like Shelly devices they do have both Cloud and local MQTT support too.
What will happen to my premium plan if the unit /esp is dead. ie the board is damaged , is unit I'd saved on my email or its a specific I'd for esp board ,so if damaged ,it means the premium purchase is gone forever.Please clear this little bit of confusion 😄
Realy it,s not a good option cadio modify this and allow permanent licence for consumer Gmail I'd,s that,s a best option when ESP is damage consumer purchase a new board and install same
Hello, i have done all the process according to your video but at the last moment after savings the configuration, the unit is not scanning network @4:33 minute.
May be there is a problem in the GPIOs you are using. Some GPIOs make the boot fail if they pulled low or high, please check this link for more information: randomnerdtutorials.com/esp8266-pinout-reference-gpios/ Also feel free to send me a screenshot of your info file setting and your circuit via email to review it and find the problem: cadio@egycad.com
After doing everything, press the rst button on the board and the blue light will come on and then disappear. There are no red or blue flashing lights. I've done it many times and it's still not the same.
@@cadioHomeAutomation gpio 13 for 433MHZ, wifi led gpio 16, Cloud gpio 2, Ir transmit gipo 3, ir receive gpio 1, 433mhz recive led = 12, 5 relays gpio = 27,26, 25,33,32 and manual switch gpio = 19,18, 5, 17, 4, 22 respectively Dht sensor on gpio = 21, Ir tx = 23 ir rx = 22 Led on ESP32 freezes at ON state but its dimm
Also wifi led starts blinking but i am not able to connect esp32 from my mobile while all the sensors and relays are connected, but if i removed the esp32 from my pcb then i am able to configure wifi credentials
Good presentation of an interesting platform. Wish you luck! I use Wemos D1 with Tasmota but would think of moving here, especially with the 433 integration. First problem, must be usable with Alexa, but cannot see the skill on the Spanish Amazon site. Any solution here?
Thank you! Glad you liked it! Yes you can use ESP32, you will need to install CADIO firmware on the esp32 with the steps showen in this video: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-RvKj8Id5e08.html Then, everything is the same, the only difference is that in the info file step, the ESP32 GPIOs will be displayed instead of the ESP8266 GPIOs.
You can connect the switch first wire to the GPIO and the second wire to gnd (and make sure that switch wiring is set to pullup in the info file). You can check the link, it will help you selecting the GOIOs: randomnerdtutorials.com/esp8266-pinout-reference-gpios/
You need a wifi network to control your units. We mean by offline that if your wifi network internet connection lost, you will be able to control the unit locally if the unit and the smartphone are connected to the same wifi network.
You can add up to 21 device on every single unit. By default, the unit has a trial license, it gives the unit full functionality for 500 operating hours, and it can be renewed for an unlimited number of times by eraseing and re-installing the firmware. And you can purchase the permanent license from license management page, the permanent License gives the unit a permanent permission to use CADIO system resources. For more information about CADIO you can visit CADIO developers docs: egycad.com/cadio/docs/discover-cadio/
@@cadioHomeAutomation how much is the permanent license And what is the procedure Please is there anything to do to activate local control or it comes by default once the device is configured
@@smartteg7381 the permanent license current price is $8 for the unit, it's a one time purchase and valid permanently, you can purchase the permanent license from license management page, in the video at 09:00
@@smartteg7381 once the unit is configured, the local control will be activated, and if the unit and the smartphone are on the same network, the wifi icon beside the unit name will be activated and you can control it locally. If you have a network with no internet connection at all, you should select a unique unit position on the network from configuration page instead of auto positioning, and it will run smoothly.
@@sachinsoni3792 the module in the video: a.aliexpress.com/_mtqyufa Good alternative: a.aliexpress.com/_m0jmDic Another alternative but with bad range: a.aliexpress.com/_mNtv2wY
The biggest drawback is its valid only for some 500 hrs which makes it unrealistic to upload firmware every 500 hrs. Please release your commercials somewhere on your website.
You're welcome! Actually, we are planning to keep the the permanent licenses system for the units, we believe this will lead a better user experience in the long run.
1) make sure you are using safe GPIOs. 2) try another power source. If not solved, you can email cadio@egycad.com, and the technical support team will try their best to help.
Have tested this and love the project it works like a dream thanks for your effort. Is there more features coming out? as I would really like to also control the garage doors that requires a press button that gives a 1s pulse
For controling devices with two directions motor like garage or curtains, there is a device type called SHUTTER, you can define two GPIOs for two relays for motor directions, and two GPIOs for two pushbuttons, I will make a video about it soon, Check this like for more details: egycad.com/cadio/docs/devices-types/shutter/
@@ethanming7096 this is the cause of the problem, try using a different network or a different VPN service, may be some issues in the connection causing that the servers don't trust it!
What if my wifi not working properly and i want to configure it with another wifi available but at the same time i an not available near my hardware setup, assume my device is in another city from me....
Currently, you need to be in the unit local network range to be able to configure it. Thank you for submitting this suggestion, it will be taken into consideration during the discussion of future developments.
Every unit with CADIO firmware must has a license to access and use CADIO system resources. After installing the firmware the unit will get the trial License, the trial License is valid for 500 operating hours, and can be renewed for an unlimited number of times by eraseing and re-installing the firmware. The permanent license gives the unit a permanent permission to use CADIO system resources, it is available to purchase from license management page, it's a one time purchase and valid permanently. After purchasing the permanent license, the unit will never lose the permanent license under any circumstances.
@@subramanyags5263 GPIO is the ESP pin. Kindly check this link for the ESP pins GPIO number: ESP8266: randomnerdtutorials.com/esp8266-pinout-reference-gpios/ ESP32: randomnerdtutorials.com/esp32-pinout-reference-gpios/
Haven't tried that, but generally you need to flash the esp with the firmware binary file with the correct setting, any method should works! Unfortunately my smartphone doesn't support this feature, I will try it when available and I will share the results.
Yes, you can add it on an external MCU "like atmega328 for example", and connect the external MCU with the esp using CadioSerial library, and using the DATA device type to receive the data from the external MCU as a json object, and display it on the app in tables and charts. The idea here is that you can send any data you need to display in the app as a json object, and you can control the full external MCU source code! this may be more advanced than this tutorial level, I'm planning to make a video about it soon, make sure you are following us!
@@triwahyudi4980 you can write your code on the external MCU as you want, and arrange the data you want to display in the app as a json object, and send it to the ESP using CadioSerial library. You can contact CADIO developers from the app side menu > CADIO platform page > chat with technical support. They can provide you the API and a code example to start with!
This is nice. I love this, for a moment I was lost because I have a similar breadboard but mine the power and ground lines don’t run across the entire breadboard. The line goes from one side and stops at the middle then continues on the next pin to the end. I was struggling to understand how power is supplied to the board since I don’t see any wires crossing / taking power from the left side to the right 😅. Then I noticed the breadboard lines they run across the entire breadboard. Not divided in half, meaning power goes through the entire breadboard. I need me this kind of breadboard
