Phaykeo Chanthalangsy asked 4 years ago

Hi 
I get the code from your website and updated it with my wifi network, as follows
#include <ESP8266WiFi.h>
#include <ESP8266WebServer.h>
/* **** STA Mode ***** */
/*Put your SSID & Password*/
const char* ssid = “Bcdnet”; // Enter SSID here
const char* password = “bcd710904”; //Enter Password here
ESP8266WebServer server(80);
uint8_t LED1pin = 13; /* D7 */
bool LED1status = LOW;
uint8_t LED2pin = 12; /* D6 */
bool LED2status = LOW;
void setup() {
Serial.begin(115200);
delay(100);
pinMode(LED1pin, OUTPUT);
pinMode(LED2pin, OUTPUT);
Serial.println(“Connecting to “);
Serial.println(ssid);
//connect to your local wi-fi network
WiFi.begin(ssid, password);
//check wi-fi is connected to wi-fi network
while (WiFi.status() != WL_CONNECTED) {
delay(1000);
Serial.print(“.”);
}
Serial.println(“”);
Serial.println(“WiFi connected..!”);
Serial.print(“Got IP: “); Serial.println(WiFi.localIP());
server.on(“/”, handle_OnConnect);
server.on(“/led1on”, handle_led1on);
server.on(“/led1off”, handle_led1off);
server.on(“/led2on”, handle_led2on);
server.on(“/led2off”, handle_led2off);
server.onNotFound(handle_NotFound);
server.begin();
Serial.println(“HTTP server started”);
}
void loop() {
server.handleClient();
if(LED1status)
{digitalWrite(LED1pin, HIGH);}
else
{digitalWrite(LED1pin, LOW);}

if(LED2status)
{digitalWrite(LED2pin, HIGH);}
else
{digitalWrite(LED2pin, LOW);}
}
void handle_OnConnect() {
LED1status = LOW;
LED2status = LOW;
Serial.println(“GPIO7 Status: OFF | GPIO6 Status: OFF”);
server.send(200, “text/html”, SendHTML(LED1status,LED2status));
}
void handle_led1on() {
LED1status = HIGH;
Serial.println(“GPIO7 Status: ON”);
server.send(200, “text/html”, SendHTML(true,LED2status));
}
void handle_led1off() {
LED1status = LOW;
Serial.println(“GPIO7 Status: OFF”);
server.send(200, “text/html”, SendHTML(false,LED2status));
}
void handle_led2on() {
LED2status = HIGH;
Serial.println(“GPIO6 Status: ON”);
server.send(200, “text/html”, SendHTML(LED1status,true));
}
void handle_led2off() {
LED2status = LOW;
Serial.println(“GPIO6 Status: OFF”);
server.send(200, “text/html”, SendHTML(LED1status,false));
}
void handle_NotFound(){
server.send(404, “text/plain”, “Not found”);
}
String SendHTML(uint8_t led1stat,uint8_t led2stat){
String ptr = “<!DOCTYPE html> <html>\n”;
ptr +=”<head><meta name=\”viewport\” content=\”width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0, user-scalable=no\”>\n”;
ptr +=”<title>LED Control</title>\n”;
ptr +=”<style>html { font-family: Helvetica; display: inline-block; margin: 0px auto; text-align: center;}\n”;
ptr +=”body{margin-top: 50px;} h1 {color: #444444;margin: 50px auto 30px;} h3 {color: #444444;margin-bottom: 50px;}\n”;
ptr +=”.button {display: block;width: 80px;background-color: #1abc9c;border: none;color: white;padding: 13px 30px;text-decoration: none;font-size: 25px;margin: 0px auto 35px;cursor: pointer;border-radius: 4px;}\n”;
ptr +=”.button-on {background-color: #1abc9c;}\n”;
ptr +=”.button-on:active {background-color: #16a085;}\n”;
ptr +=”.button-off {background-color: #34495e;}\n”;
ptr +=”.button-off:active {background-color: #2c3e50;}\n”;
ptr +=”p {font-size: 14px;color: #888;margin-bottom: 10px;}\n”;
ptr +=”</style>\n”;
ptr +=”</head>\n”;
ptr +=”<body>\n”;
ptr +=”<h1>ESP8266 Web Server</h1>\n”;
ptr +=”<h3>Using Station(STA) Mode</h3>\n”;

if(led1stat)
{ptr +=”<p>LED1 Status: ON</p><a class=\”button button-off\” href=\”/led1off\”>OFF</a>\n”;}
else
{ptr +=”<p>LED1 Status: OFF</p><a class=\”button button-on\” href=\”/led1on\”>ON</a>\n”;}
if(led2stat)
{ptr +=”<p>LED2 Status: ON</p><a class=\”button button-off\” href=\”/led2off\”>OFF</a>\n”;}
else
{ptr +=”<p>LED2 Status: OFF</p><a class=\”button button-on\” href=\”/led2on\”>ON</a>\n”;}
ptr +=”</body>\n”;
ptr +=”</html>\n”;
return ptr;
}
Everything is working, but LED is not functioning (it is On) as I could see massages saying on On and Off in monitor at 115200 baud.
Thanks

Hi.
We have many different web server tutorials. I don’t know to which tutorial that code refers to.
Can you share the link for the tutorial you are following?

Sara
