#6046 I'm new to the ESP8266 so I still learning it's capabilities. I'm looking to use it as a remote RS485 receiver. I can get it setup to receive UDP packets,but if I power it down I have to reissue the setup commands.
I would like it to have the ESP8266 and a RS485 level shiftier with the setup commands programmed into the 8266 or do I need to include a processor to do the setup? It's a receive only do I don't need to
send any data back. I would appreciate any help in the right direction.
