Blynk and Module ESP8266 With Arduino UNO

The document describes how to connect an ESP8266 WiFi module to an Arduino UNO board and use the Blynk app and platform to control an LED remotely over WiFi. It includes steps for assembling the necessary materials, making the electrical connections, uploading the code, and configuring the Blynk app to send commands to turn the LED on and off from a smartphone. The goal is to introduce how to build an Internet of Things project that connects an Arduino to WiFi and controls an output remotely.

Intro: Blynk and module ESP8266 with Arduino UNO
The ESP8266 module is a module that allows our micro controller to connect to a WiFi network or to create an access point for our devices.

The application that we will use for our form is "Blynk" downloaded for free from the Play Store. Through "Blynk" we can control the switching on and off of an LED
through our WiFi network.

Step 1: Materials and warnings


Used materials:
Arduino UNO
ESP8266
An Android device
Cables and a breadboard

It is important to point out before mounting the circuit module that ESP8266 works with 3.3V voltages higher then you risk burning it.

Step 2: Electrical connections


ESP8266:____________ Arduino:

GND -------------------------- GND

GP2 -------------------------- Non collegato

GP0 -------------------------- GND

RXD -------------------------- Pin 3

TXD -------------------------- Pin 2

CHPD ------------------------ 3.3V

RST -------------------------- Non collegato

VCC -------------------------- 3.3V

LED:____________ Arduino:

Anode -------------------------- GND

Cathode ------------------------Pin 13

Step 3: Sketch
After making the connections we need to download the APP for Android and the library for use with Arduino then go on http://www.blynk.cc/getting-started/

Now that we have the APP installed on our device we should install the library so we download the .zip file and unzip in the directory: C: \ Users \ yourusername \
Documents \ Arduino \ libraries After installing the libraries we open the IDE Aduino we open an empty sketch and copy the sketch from this site:

http://elettrizzatidiy.blogspot.it/2016/07/blynk-e...

Step 4: Blynk!
Now we need to download Blynk from google play.

Open Blynk from your smartphone and create our first program as in pictures.

Send via E-mail the Auth Token Code.

Now that we have created our own mini program we would modify the sketch nell'Arduino IDE, so we're going to copy our authtoken in the string:

auth char [] = "YourAuthToken";

in void setup () we find the string:

Blynk.begin (auth, wifi, "SSID", "pass");

it replaces the SSID, the name of our WiFi network and pass the corresponding password. We just now that load our program on Arduino and start the application!

Image Notes
1. Send via E-mail the Auth Token Code as there will need this later.

Great intro to Arduino project. Projects like this are a great way to teach people for to combine different modules together.
