Hi, I thought I would try your project to look after my small flock of silkies but I wanted to use an Adafruit Huzzah32 that I had gathering dust. I have been able to load the binaries but cannot access the web page at 192.168.4.1. I note the following differences between my installation and the posted version. 1) The zip file gives me xCctrl.2022.05.29a.all.bin not xCctrl.2022.05.29a.bin 2) The initial wifi zone is kurnicek-c32c99 which is also different than the one shown in the post

I have loaded the examples wifinetwork code into the Huzzah just to check if the browser link works and can confirm it does so I assume I am making a mistake when loading the bin files. Any help would be most welcome and hello from France! Regards David

xCCtrl is writen, compiled, tested only for ESP8266, Adafruit Huzah32 has core ESP32, diferent.

  1. xCctrl.2022.05.29a.all.bin is firmware + filesystem xCctrl.2022.05.29a.bin if only firmware
  2. kurnicek-xxxxxx -> xxxxxx is device serial number kurnicek is only preprogrammed name, can be changed via web interface

thanks for the response, I thought I was doing something stupid! Ive ordered the right modules and will try again when they arrive I will hopefully have more success

I picked up the correct esp 8266 module and loaded the xCctrl.2022.05.29a.all bin etc. as shown. However I have the same issue, I cannot ping the 192.168.4.1 address and when I check the settings of the module I can see its connected but has no IP address - The first time the module boots I a asked for the password and enter fery1234 which gets it to connect. - Any ideas what I am doing wrong?

Give me output from 192.168.4.1/info and 192.168.4.1/wifi in Acces Point mode. What of module have you?

its a WeMos D1 mini Pro. With the binary files I can connect but it doesn't get an IP address so I cannot access it at all. If I load the wifi access point example from the Arduino library then I can connect without issues and ping the module and get the "connected " page up

Test xCctrl.2022.05.31d_D1miniPro. it's dev version, compiled direct for you. xCctrl.2022.05.31d tested in my coop works, tested on my LOLIN D1 Mini V3.1.0 4MB and ESP8266 Witty Cloud ESP-12F WiFi Module. See firmware/ESP8266-DOWNLOAD-TOOL.png

Apologies for late response, my neighbour was very ill over the weekend and I had to prioritise him. The new binaries work perfectly - thank you very much for all the effort helping me. I will be busy building the rest of the system over the next week and hopefully upgrade my chicken coop before Christmas - really excited to install this system, it looks fantastic.
