Blinkenpoi: Unterschied zwischen den Versionen

Zeile 90:

When we reach the end of the file we just set the filedescriptor to seek(0) and start over.

== User contributed Usage guid ==

pink: colour after starting the poi - press button now to ovverride the network setup - longpress leads to NETWORK RESET and 3x red blinking

white: connecting with previously configured network

~~==TODOs==~~

green: connected with configured network

~~The Webinterface is 95% done.~~

~~It works, but it needs some love especially warnings and feedback if you are about to delete or overwrite something.~~

yellow: Open Access Point on Blinkenpoi for setup

~~This functionality needs to be implemented in Javascript / jQuery~~

~~We need to add a fat Capacitor on the PCB~~

Reset Wifi-Setup:

~~We could add a second~~ button

After starting, when LED is pink, press and hold the reset-button. Then the LED should flash red three times.

~~Maybe migrate everything~~ to ~~an ESP32~~ and ~~port~~ the ~~firmware~~ to ~~MicroPython~~. ~~ESP8266~~ is ~~not sufficient~~ for ~~this Project + MicroPython~~

Connect Poi to your Wifi:

Connect the Poi via USB to your Computer.

Search for Blinkenpoi in the accessable networks.

Connect to it.

A captive portal is opened (browser popup).

If it does not open automatically open a browser and go to [http://192.168.4.1]

Choose Wifi-Setup in the menu and choose your wifi (for example the Hotspot of your Smartphone), enter the password and click "Save".

The poi should turn from yellow to green after a couple of seconds and turn dark on successful pairing to the hotspot.

Now, when you start the poi, the LED first flashes pink, then white and finally green and turns off again.

In your Wifi-Device/Smartphone open the Browser and enter blinkenpoi.local.

If your device does not support MDMS - which is the case for android - you have to enter the IP-Adress of your Poi.

If you don't know its IP address you can use nmap, look on the router or attach a usb cable and take a look on the terminal provided by the blinkenpoi.

for example '''screen /dev/tty.usbserial0 115200'''

or you could connect another computer that can resolve nDNS to your hostpot and open http://blinkenpoi.local in the browser
