Frequently Asked Questions

What custom firmware options are compatible with this SWYAM controller board?

The board is fully compatible with popular open-source firmware like Tasmota, ESPHome, and ESPurna. You can flash these using the dedicated serial programming pins via a USB-to-serial adapter. This allows for advanced local control, MQTT integration, and deep customization within platforms like Home Assistant, moving beyond the default SWYAM app ecosystem.

How do I connect and configure this PCB with Amazon Alexa for voice control?

If using the default SWYAM firmware, install the corresponding mobile app, connect the board to your 2.4GHz WiFi, and then link the SWYAM skill in your Alexa app. For custom firmware like Tasmota, you would configure MQTT on your home automation server and then use a bridge integration (like SinricPro or local emulation) within Tasmota to expose the device to Alexa for voice command functionality.

What is the procedure for performing an Over-the-Air (OTA) firmware update?

First, ensure the board is connected to your local WiFi network. If using the default firmware, updates may be pushed through the SWYAM mobile app. For custom firmware like Tasmota, you initiate OTA updates by accessing the device's web interface, navigating to the firmware update section, and uploading the new binary file directly from your computer, provided the current firmware already has OTA support enabled.
