Esp8266 WiFi Module setup using Arduino Uno || ESP8266 Blynk || IoT Project || uElectroPro

Hi! In this video I will show you how to getting started with esp8266-01 WiFi module and make a simple LED light controlling project using Arduino, ESP8266 and Blynk App

00:37 Circuit Diagram
00:42 Remove Atmega328P

Remove Atmega328P Because we directly want to communicate with esp8266 through serial monitor(as USB to serial convertor), not from the atmega328p

00:55 Make connections (for esp8266 communication)
01:18 Check Arduino Board and port
01:30 Open Serial monitor (set baud rate and Both NL & CR)

By reconnecting the GND wire of Esp8266, it will print the "ready" on Serial monitor that means now it is ready for AT commands. First I write some AT commands to test esp8266 and then changed the baud rate of the ESP8266.

02:04 Change Baud rate of esp8266, write AT+UART_DEF=9600,8,1,0,0
03:07 Download the Blynk App and Libraries
06:21 Make connections for final setup
07:26 Setup the Blynk App
09:19 Source code
10:50 Make some changes in code and upload
13:15 Done!

Note: If you are getting esp not responding then first check the TX and RX connections and make sure wires are not loose and broken. Second check the baud rate.

Schematic for communicating with esp or changing the baud rate:

Works perfectly . . . .some notes:

1.- In order to see the new libraries you have to restart Arduino Application after you copy the files.
2.- I had to create the folers for tools manually, in windows 10 is a little bit different.

Everything else is very very clear. I know my notes are stupid things but it may help noob people like me.

Thanks man for your job you really helped me a lot, appreciate.

Spot on ! it works ! nice work!
One suggestion : instead of remove the chip from UNO board, just connect POWER:RESET pin to the GND (I used GND pin at digital IO pins side). it gives the same effect while keep the chip untouched.

This is one of the best videos on Youtube to connect Arduino to the Blynk. I was looking for the tutorial for the past 6 months. NodeMCU can be connected very easily but Arduino Uno is a little bit tricky.


So thank you so much for your support and tutorial. Really appreciate the work.

This is the most accurate explanation out of all the garbage uploaded over YouTube!! :))
Accurately explained how to connect Blynk via ESP8266 ❤️
Thank you so much :)

[rasekeitimohlomi]

works perfectly with Arduino Mega, just change (2, 3) to (11, 10)

Thanks man! I'd like to add some notes on this:

1. Instead of just removing your arduino mcu chip, just connect arduino's reset pin to ground pin.
2. Also take note on the serial monitor part where AT commands were done. I took me few minutes to figure it out why it wasn't working the same until I changed the Newline to "Both NL & CR" and the baud rate from 9600 to 115200.

The rest was working very well.

Very helpful, I have the esp8266 WEMOS because that was the quickest to get but i still think elements of this video will work with it. keep up the good work.

[yudasetiabudi]

Thank you, it's working after I depressed my self to find a way to use ESp8266 modul with Aduino.

[___itachiedits__]

good job bro but I have a note: you don't have to remove the microcontroller you can just put it in the reset mode by connecting reset pin to ground (gnd) and that's it🙃

[aliffaizal]

amazing video sir, looking forward for u to most more like this!

[mahmoudhafez]

I have a problem .. can help me to solve it ( Error compiling for board Arduino/Genuino Uno.) this massage appears when compiling the sketch, I select Arduino Uno board.

[CostGazelle]

If you uploaded any code to esp8266 before, you should flash the firmware of esp8266 in order to work with this method

[tobiwan]

i cant communicate with my esp...every time i try to reset it oder change the baud rate theres just written error...do you know how i can fix this?
regards

[598] Connecting to Palonki 3G
[1612] ESP is not responding
. but why, help plz

[adityagautam]

My esp is not responding
How to solve this problem
?

[gaevin]

hyee, Ive done everything, But how i do connect the esp8266 to my phone?

[basilwilson]

THANK YOU SIR. This video really helped me in my project.

[mohammadamiransari]

Please tell me why you removed IC before coding in arduino

[nornisdalina]

why when i want to verify the code blynk, “error compling for board arduino uno” pops up cant upload :(

[juanes]

bro thank you! incredible tutorial. you saved my life jajaja
