ESP8266 Community Forum

Hi friends.

I'm using ESP8266 with PIC18F4620 communicating by USART.
So, there is another possibility of control ESP8266 by UART without AT COMMANDS? Can i turn off AT COMMANDS?

Have any document with another communication protocol?

Thanks

Best Regards.

You could easily create your own firmware using ArduinoESP platform, and have your own protocol for communication between the ESP and the PIC18F4620.
But the whole thing depends what you wish to do and how do you split tasks between both MCU.
You can also avoid the PIC18F4620 and implement all tasks in the ESP itself.
