Re: Best controller options for ESP32 boards

Sorry for this rookie question, but what would be a decent, rugged, reliable, hopefully low cost bluetooth game controller for me to get to use with Bluepad32?

P.S.: All I need are the buttons and joysticks, do not need any fancy features.

Re: Best controller options for ESP32 boards

Hey MicroController, I'll be checking that out for sure. Hopefully helps out the OP also.

Thanks,

Re: Best controller options for ESP32 boards

If you find something please update this thread. I have been half heartedly watching for such a thing for years for a farm project we built. As of now still using a traditional box of switches.

Re: proximity inductive npn no

There are some issues.

1) There is no common voltage between the esp32 and the 24V circuit, so the esp is floating.

2) The proxes will apply too much voltage to the GPIO. Once you have a common voltage reference you then need to divide the prox output voltage down to esp input levels.

Re: Arduino esp32 support

Cant't you go to Tools / Manage Libraries in the Arduino IDE and pick the version that you want there?

Re: WIFI sockets fail after a while

This is off topic, but I have to ask Craige about that web page with gauges.

Did you program that? Is it available on line?

I want to make a gauge display for my combine and those gauges would be ideal.

Thanks,
JP.

Re: ESP32 stops sending data to web server

I have had similar problems in the past. I never did find the cause but probably related to a sprawling lan with some lower quality switches and ap's.

I added some programming that watched for the wifi and/or ethernet activity to stop and if it did to disconnect and then re-connect.

On some ...

Re: ESP-S2 build time and size

I do not have an answer to your question, but I have noticed the same.

I just figured it was a compounding of multiple causes that affected me. I'm using older, not so powerful computers (mostly old Gateway lappies running Debian). The Arduino IDE is (my understanding) using an Arduino wrapper ...

Re: Voltage divider / Non linear output

One RSP32 "quirk" is that the ADC is not the best. If 12 bit accuracy is required an external ADC is what some are using. Or a different micro-controller.

A bunch of threads discussing this issue on this and other forums can be found with a search.
