I think I have still not been clear. The pin I want to control from Smoothieware is the pin 12 of the ESP. And I wanted to control it from the standard M80/M81 gcodes.
Anyway, I got it working with some help from Wolfmanjm (smoothieware). Just added 2 lines in the communication module of Smoothieware, in the GcodeDispatch.cpp file, in the "Mcodes" management section: (if it can be useful to others):case 80: THEKERNEL->streams->printf("[ESP201]P12 V1\r\n"); break;
case 81: THEKERNEL->streams->printf("[ESP201]P12 V0\r\n"); break;
Sorry for the time it may have swallowed on your side. Merci !
I know the pin 12 is the one you command on ESP - but this pin is connected to the relay or switch - and according pin state HIGH or LOW the relay or switch will power ON or OFF
So you can just bypass the ESP and connect your smoothie pin to this esp12 - just put the ESP pin 12 low - so when your smoothie pin is high it won;'t affect ESP but affect the relay - it just need a relay and be sure you share same GND
I am not electronician but it should work - or you do not have access the pin connected to ESP pin 12 ?

No worry - it is interresting situation - find / or learn a solution is always useful ^_^
I have added in ESP3D 3.0 the support of Lua script to fit such situation Smoothie ware change pin state - ESP3D connected to this pin see the change and do something accordingly
I remember someone already had such request because same situation that is why I did this, ESP3D has already kind of feature - it is the reset pin - if you put one pin low at start it reset all settings
So in your case if pin 13 of ESPis low (or high) change ESP pin 12 accordingly - in all case you need an additional wire

Anyway glad to see you got this working I have learned something from smoothieware thank you ^_^
Hello. Does anyone know of good way to connect ESP-01S to BTT SKR Mini E3 v1.2 with TFT24 display. I see the TFT 35 has connector for wifi but not the 24. If I remove TFT cable and hook rx and tx to tht header on board ESP3D works fine but lose functionality of display. Did risky thing and stuck jumpers from ESP-01S rx/tx into back of plug of tft cable and connected to board but then neither ESP3D or LCD function fully. I am not aware of any other rx/tx pins on board or processor. Already spent better part of day googling for solution. Any help greatly appreciated thank.
@headly617 I had the same issue with Fusetc Cheetah 1.1b. They have a nice header in the front but the minute you use it you lose USB port. I built a bootloader with SD firmware update and ended up using that. Check if you have a CH340 chip, you can solder on ton2 puns for RX and TX. I will look at the board schematics tomorrow and update you.
I'm a bit new to cnc building. Do I understand correctly that esp3d can't be used to control steppers but is rather an interface to send commands to something that can? Is there a grbl-like bit of software for the 8266 so I can use this board to directly control my stepper drivers?
esp32 has also this form factor and allow just the grbl shield
i have the skr mini V2.0 and the tft 35 V3.0
is it possible to use ESP3D wifi to connect to Ender 5 pro printer with stock firmware?
if serial port is available it should be possible
@Fighter777 ben la faut regarder les points sur la carte ou l'usb devient serial et souder 2 pins mais ce n'est souvent pas simple et parfois risque si pas bien fait
Hello Everyone. I would like to propose a very helpfull feature to the ESP3D for use in Marlin 3D Printer. Nowadays I use a NodeMCU ESP8266 to connect with my Marlin/RAMPS 3D Printer. But it would be very nice if we could connect a Joystick Shield to the many remaining pins of ESP8266 to have this additional possibility to control the 3D printer with joystick. However I depend from the experts that have the knowledge to program the ESP3D to the implement a such feature. So here is the tip.
I must not forget. Here is the Joystick Shield: https://www.amazon.com/Gamepads-Joystick-Keypad-Arduino-nRF24L01/dp/B07NZN1MTV
hi everyone, I have a rather particular question:
I am a beginner so I apologize in advance if it is an obvious or stupid question.
So, I recently bought an ANET A8 3d printer and was looking to add wifi control to it. I have motherboard v 1.7 and so I followed this photo to connect the TX and RX (https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/51383186/59010169-9d471580-8830-11e9-97a9-ba0b46776449.jpg). I have an esp8266 to which I flashed a code that creates in it a tcp / ip server (basically a terminal over wifi) in this way I can read and write data to and from the rx and tx pins of the esp8266. I connected the pin rx (ANET) to the tx (ESP8266) and the tx (ANET) with the rx (ESP8266). Not needing power, I only connected the ground coming from my Anet with the ground of the esp8266 to "activate" the serial communication. Through all this procedure, once the printer is turned on, I am able to receive the serial data that the printer sends but I cannot send the G-CODES to it. Please tell me what am I wrong.
I await an answer as soon as possible and thank you already !!
