ESP8266-12 Standalone Blynk Control Outlets Wireless 433 Mhz

This is my first project on instructable ...

This project uses ESP8266-12 to turn on and turn off wireless outlets, without any changes, using the app Blynk library Rc-switch

Step 1:

Step 2: Materials

ESP8266-12 or ( ESP8266-07 , ...., ESP8266-12e)

RF 433 MHz Transmitter

3 wirelless remote control outlets

antenna 433mhz ( https://www.instructables.com/id/433-MHz-Coil-loaded-antenna/ )

Step 3: Software E Library

BLYNK

app:

BLYNK app Apple store

BLYNK app Google Play store

Library

BLYNK library

Rc-switch library

Step 4: Sketch

change the sketch in the following lines with your data:

• char auth[] = "xxxxxxxxxx"; //insert here your token generated by Blynk app

• Blynk.begin(auth, "ssid", "password"); //insert here your SSID and password

• mySwitch.switchOn(1, 1); // insert here your code outlets

rc-switch (follow the prompts to set the transmission code of your outlets remote control)

Step 5: Connections

ESP8266-12

VCC +3,3v

CH-PD +3,3v (new version ESP8266-12e pin EN)

GND ground

GPIO15 ground

GPIO13 ---------- pin ATAD (transmitter 433mhz )

transmitter 433mhz

ATAD ----- GPIO13 (ESP8266-12)

VCC +5v

GND ground

Hi,thanks for share your code,have successfully made it and work perfect,now have buyed a google home assistant,and i'd like to run whit vocal command,searching on google has confused me,could you help me if possible...really thanks

[catoplepa]

hi I'm glad you use the code and everything works, at the moment I'm not able to help you, I'm an Italian nurse and we are fighting against the coronavirus covid-19 I don't know when I can help you create the code, a greeting Christian

[smartie91]

thankyou for this i had to use the tristate of my code for my sockets

works great thankyou

I made it for the ESP-01. It turns my Christmas tree lights on and off. Tip: If your Arduino IDE compiler freezes - check for odd characters in the RCswitch.h file.

Hi RoccoM1

it should work, but I do not have it tested

[RoccoM1]

How do we know if this works with different outlets brand? I mean for example, is it possible to use this: http://www.brennenstuhl.com/en-DE/multi-way-extensions-und-plug-in-appliances/remote-control-set/remote-control-set-rcs-1000-n-comfort-1.html#wp_features ?

Hi OlivierD2

try entering the sketch

mySwitch.switchOn("100010", "101001");

or

mySwitch.switchOn(100010101001);

[OlivierD2]

Thx I will try ;)

[OlivierD2]

How do you insert the code outlets, what is the syntax exactly ?

BLYNK_WRITE(0) { //virtual pin 0

mySwitch.switchOn(1, 1); // insert here your code outlets

}

If my outlet code is for example 100010101001, how is the syntax of the Arduino code just after mySwitch.switchOn(1,1); ?

thx for your reply

[catoplepa]

thanks Seamster

Nice work, and I love the dancing robot gif! So cool!
