Esp0101s Relay Module Tutorial

This document provides instructions for building a WiFi relay module using an ESP-01/01S WiFi module and relay. It can be used to control devices remotely via a phone app. The module allows controlling a load of up to 10A and 250VAC wirelessly within a 400m range. The tutorial explains how to connect the ESP01/01S to an FTDI converter for programming and then to the relay. It also provides the code needed to control the relay remotely over WiFi by accessing a URL. Users can turn a connected device on or off by pressing buttons on a web page.

ESP01/01S RELAY MODULE TUTORIAL

by mybotic

Description

This WiFi relay based on AI-Thinker ESP-01/ 01S WiFi module, we use the GPIO0 of ESP-01/ 01S to control the
relay by low level. It’s easy to DIY your smart switch to any device by your phone anywhere with this smart relay.

Specifications

Working voltage: DC 5V-12V


Working current: ≥250mA
Communication: ESP01 or ESP 01S
WiFi module Transmission distance: the maximum transmission distance is 400m (open
environment, mobile phone equipped with WiFi module)
Load: 10A/ 250VAC, 10A/ 30VDC, 10A/ 30VDC, 10A/ 28VDC
Size: 37 x 25mm

Step 1: Material Preparation

In this tutorial, we only used the following materials:

1. USB to UART FTDI Converter


2. ESP8266 WiFi Serial Transceiver Module

and last but not least, ESP01/01S Relay Module.

We connect ESP8266 WiFi Serial Transceiver Module to ESP01/01S Relay Module so that we can control the
relay via WiFi. To program ESP8266, FTDI Converter is required to be connected with ESP8266.

Step 2: Hardware Installation

As for the connection between ESP8266 and FTDI Converter, it is shown as diagram above or listed as below:

1. RX -> TX
2. TX -> RX
3. VCC -> VCC
4. CH_EN -> VCC
5. GPIO-0 -> GND
6. GND -> GND

The pins for ESP8266 is also labeled as diagram 2.

After done uploading the code to ESP8266, simply connect it to ESP01/01S Relay Module.

Step 3: Uploading the Code

For coding part, change the SSID and PASSWORD to your WiFi SSID and Password respectively. In the code, it
is mentioned that serial begin is 115200, so make sure that the serial monitor is 115200 otherwise it will not
display anything. We set the URL to https://192.168.0.178/ and it will be used later on.

…

Step 4: Results

When we access the URL, it will show as diagram 1 above. Make sure that you have been activated the ESP8266
along with ESP01/01S Relay Module with a range of 5V to 12V so that you can access the URL. The results for
the module is shown as diagram 2 which LED lighted up indicated that the relay is ON.

Once we pressed the OFF in URL, the relay will be turned OFF simultaneously and vice versa for ON option.
