JOY-it ESP8266-PROG Raspberry Pi Expansion Board Suitable User Guide

Dear customer,
thank you for choosing our product. In the following, we will show what you should note at the commissioning and during the usage.
Should you encounter any unexpected problems during use, please do not hesitate to contact us.

CONFIGURATION OF SOFTWARE ENVIRONMENT

First of all, you must prepare the Arduino development environment for the use with the ESP8266.
For that, enter in the global settings of the program the following URL as an additional board manager URL: https://arduino.esp8266.com/stable/package_esp8266com_index.json

After that, the additional board library must be installed. For that open the board manager and install the ESP8266-library.

As soon as the board is successfully installed, you can select the Generic ESP8266 Module in the list of available boards.

Your Arduino development environment is now ready for the use with the ESP8266.

CONNECTION & PROGRAMMING OF ESP8266

Put now the ESP8266 in the yellow connector of the programming module like shown in the picture.

Next to the yellow connector is a small switch (also shown in the picture). Note that the switch should be on Prog if you want to program your ESP8266. For the regular use, you must set the switch to UART.
Connect the programming module with the USB-interface of your computer.

If the automatic installation of drivers fails, you have to install the drivers manually.
In this case download the driver installation program and install the drivers. Note that the accurate port is selected in the Arduino settings.

The in the Arduino environment installed ESP-package provides some code examples for the use of this module. These examples are highly qualified for the entering into the programming of the ESP8266.
