ESP8266 Newbie
Posted: Mon Jun 20, 2016 4:08 am
Hi.
I'm very new to both Arduino and ESP8266.
I've bought some ESP8266 modules and began trying them on a small project.
I've made all the connections and the module responds like it should: I can connect to networks, get IP, everything.
My question is regarding the libraries: I am using the ESP8266 with Arduino Uno's and I need to use Software Serial so I can send commands and still debug through the serial console.
In 'standard' Arduino modules I define which pin is the module connected. In ESP8266 how can I tell which pins is the Software Serial using? All libraries I've seen do not have any setting for that.
I'm a bit confused
Can anyone help?
Thanks.
Regards,
Mike
