I did a bit of playing with my new ESP-12e, but suddenly it kind of fails on me. It gives me some weird looks it didn't give me (as much) before.
This is what the Serial Monitor prints when I try to run a very simple sketch. When I restart the module, it just adds some more of these chars. The following is the code for that:
const int statusLED = 16;
void setup() {
pinMode(statusLED, OUTPUT);
digitalWrite(statusLED, HIGH);
Serial.begin(115200);
Serial.write("The ESP-12e has started.");
delay(500);
}
void loop() {
delay(1000);
digitalWrite(statusLED, LOW);
delay(1000);
digitalWrite(statusLED, HIGH);
}
This doesn't even involve the WIFI...
These are my board settings:
Board: Generic ESP8266 Module
Flash mode: QIO
Flash frequency: 40MHz
CPU frequency: 80MHz
Flash size: 4M (3M SPIFFS)
Upload speed: 115200
And finally, if it might help, how I connected the module:
All connections are solid, so that shouldn't be a problem. The connection board has GPIO15 printed on it twice, but the one I connected to the LED is actually GPIO16. I noticed that the onboard LED of the ESP-12e doesn't light on anymore.
I use the CP2102 USB to UART module.
Thanks!
