- Tue Mar 31, 2015 6:15 am #13101 I want to connect my ch340g ftdi so I can use automatic reset when flashing. (like in the picture in the first post)

The issue is that i do not have the RTS exposed Just CTS, and so cannot

This is my ftdi:

Can i do something about this? or should I try to locate the RTS on the CH340G chip and solder a cable on it?

This is all new to me. Fortunately my background included writing scripts for PLC's so the programming I can follow. However the IDE is a bit of a mystery at the moment.

Could someone explain the steps to create the programme for the ESP8266 and then upload it to the ESP. What do you use to upload?

Regards

Ian
