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
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
The main drawback of the CADIO app is that it requires a local Wi-Fi router for connectivity. It does not support configuring the ESP32/ESP8266 in AP mode, which would allow the device to operate independently of a home Wi-Fi network. Additionally, the IR remote control feature has very limited channels, making it less suitable for large homes with complex automation needs. Another limitation is that the app is not entirely free-it requires a one-time licensing cost of approximately ₹800 per device. However, this is a lifetime purchase that does not require recurring fees.
I don't know how to make a push button in the Cadio application. I want to make instant on/off as a push button in the Android interface. Isn't there such a button shape in Cadio? Thank you in advance.
Once I have uploaded the command , I want to reconfigure it from the start like giving the changing gpios and adding more inputs and sensors but unable to find the right option to do so... Please resolve
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
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
