Frequently Asked Questions

How do I program this ESP8266 relay module?

You can program the module using the Arduino IDE. First, install the ESP8266 board package via the Boards Manager. Connect the module's UART pins (TX, RX) to a USB-to-serial adapter. Select 'Generic ESP8266 Module' as the board, choose the correct COM port, and upload your sketch. The provided reference code demonstrates basic relay control via Wi-Fi, which you can modify for MQTT, HTTP, or custom TCP protocols.

What power supply should I use for this board?

The board accepts three input types: AC mains (90-250V AC), low-voltage DC (7-12V DC), or USB 5V. For direct wall outlet connection, wire the AC Live and Neutral to the AC input terminals. For battery or adapter use, connect DC positive and negative to the DC input pins. The onboard switching regulator converts this to the 3.3V and 5V needed by the ESP8266 and relay, respectively. Ensure your power source can provide sufficient current, especially when the relay is energized.

How do I wire the relay to control an AC appliance?

The relay has three screw terminals: Common (COM), Normally Open (NO), and Normally Closed (NC). To switch an AC device, disconnect its live wire and connect one side to COM and the other to NO. When the relay is activated, COM connects to NO, completing the circuit. Always ensure the appliance's voltage and current (max 250V AC, 10A) are within the relay's rating. For safety, enclose the board in an insulated case when dealing with mains voltage and follow all local electrical codes.

Can I use this module with Home Assistant or other smart home platforms?

Yes, you can integrate it with Home Assistant, OpenHAB, or similar platforms. After flashing firmware (like ESPHome or Tasmota), the module will appear as a switch entity. In ESPHome, define the relay's GPIO pin and Wi-Fi credentials in the YAML configuration, then compile and upload. The module will connect to your network, and Home Assistant can auto-discover it via MQTT or the native API. This allows for scheduling, automation, and voice control through Google Assistant or Amazon Alexa with minimal coding.
