ESP8266 Community Forum

- Sun Mar 08, 2020 10:19 pm #86001 Hi guys.
I am thinking of making a ttl - Bluetooth converter.
My goal is to be able to read some data that comes from some ports of local equipment. Do this right on my iphone.
But I also think about being able to burn the firmware of my ESPs on my cell phone.

There are Bluetooth converters. HC05, HC06 ...

Has anyone seen / done something similar?

If anyone has any advice, thank you!

Hugs.

Why? If you are using the esp8266 of the esp32 then surely wifi would be the way to go!

What sort of data? RS232 etc. How many ports?

I don't always use esp8266. Such a converter can be used to connect ESP and other equipment that does not have wifi.

Regardless of the type of data, I want to read what's coming. the data I handle in the software. only one RS232 port at first.

I want the possibility to PHYSICALLY record ESP by cell phone so that operators who do not have much knowledge in technology can take action in the field. A FISICO portable recorder will help a lot. It could even be like the old PIC KIT 2 with the TO GO function.
