Programming a raw ESP-12e
Posted: Wed Nov 11, 2015 10:05 am
Hi,
I have been working on a drop in replacement ESP-12e for an xBee. I removed the ESP-12 from an Adafruit Huzzah that I am trying to use to program the new ESP12e (see pictures). I am able to get the "AI Thinker Ready" line to come up in the Arduino serial monitor, but that's all I can do. I can't send it commands, I can't get it accept firmware....nothing!
I have checked and double checked all of my wiring and trace routing, but I can't get anything. I have tried the nodemcu flasher tool and the flash download tool, but neither sees the ESP-12e chip.
Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated! I will be glad to share all files when this is done and in fact I am including them now if anyone wants to look them over for the problem.
