Relay Control Using ThingsLinker IoT Development Board TL01-ESP8266Through ThingsLinker App
This project demonstrates how to control a relay connected to a bulb using the ThingsLinker IoT Development Board TL01-ESP8266 via the ThingsLinker App. By leveraging the power of IoT, you can control your home appliances remotely with just a few taps on your smartphone.
Hardware Components:
ThingsLinker TL01-ESP8266: The core of the project, this development board facilitates Wi-Fi connectivity and control.
NodeMCU: An open-source IoT platform used to program the TL01-ESP8266.
Relay Module: Acts as a switch to control the bulb based on signals received from the TL01-ESP8266.
Bulb: The appliance being controlled in this setup.
Holder: Used to securely place the bulb.
Wires: Connect the components for signal transmission.
Plug: Supplies power to the setup.
Micro USB Cable: Used to program the TL01-ESP8266 via the NodeMCU.
Software Components:
Arduino IDE: A platform to write and upload code to the TL01-ESP8266.
ThingsLinker App: An intuitive mobile application that allows you to control the relay connected to the bulb from anywhere, provided you have internet access.
Step-by-Step Process:
1. Hardware Setup:
Connect the ThingsLinker TL01-ESP8266 to the relay module.
Wire the relay module to the bulb using the holder and necessary wiring.
Power the entire setup using the plug and connect the TL01-ESP8266 to your computer via the Micro USB cable.
2. Programming the TL01-ESP8266:
Open the Arduino IDE on your computer.
Write or upload the code that allows the TL01-ESP8266 to communicate with the ThingsLinker App.
Upload the code to the TL01-ESP8266 via the NodeMCU.
3. Using the ThingsLinker App:
Open the ThingsLinker App on your smartphone.
Pair it with the TL01-ESP8266 via Wi-Fi.
Use the app's interface to turn the relay on and off, which in turn controls the bulb.
Key Features:
Remote Control: Control your home appliances from anywhere using the ThingsLinker App.
Simple Setup: With basic components and simple wiring, this project is easy to assemble and operate.
Scalable: This setup can be expanded to control multiple relays and appliances using the same ThingsLinker IoT Development Board.
