ESP8266 wdt reset when tring to control LED strip
Posted: Wed Apr 08, 2020 5:55 amHello,
I'm trying to control an SK6812 RGBW strip with an ESP8266. I've copied a few effects from https://www.tweaking4all.com/hardware/a ... cts-in-one and created a few myself. When using the effects alone I don't get a watchdog timeout. The web part of the code also works alone. Are the LED effects somehow blocking essential WiFi functions?
The program works by the website sending a query parameter which is then decoded and then changes the color and chosen effect.
I've tried with multiple boards even ane ESP32 (I obviously changed the code). I also tried with the ESPAsyncWebServer library, but to no avail.
Another quick question about the forum. Is it better if I post with code integrated into the post or is it ok to give a zip file with the project?
