Hardware

Describe whether you run the code on the ThingPulse Weather Station Color kit or on some custom hardware.

I recently purchased a "WEMOS" Mega from eBay. I'd like to be able to use the forecasting code with my board, but always get errors due to wifi.h. I believe the connection between the Mega and Esp8266 uses AT commands. While the 2.8" SPI screen is ok, I'd like to be able to use a 7" Parallel UTFT screen for weather information as well as being able to send my current weather data from various sensors to Open Weather Maps.

I would not call this an error/bug report! It’s more of a desire to use the code on a board it was never designed to. Change WiFi.h to ESP8266Wifi.h it should turn red if spelt correctly.

G6EJD commented 5 years ago

BTW when you program an ESP8266 you will overwrite the often supplied operating system that gives you AT commands.

Grrrr.....the Mega communicates with the esp on serial3 hdwr with AT commands to OWM.
