Hi
 Without the usb cable(umbilical connection), you can control the esp by
 Wifi Webserver

Thank you for the links.
However, what I meant for ‘umbilical connection’ is either a wired or wireless connection.

I found the solution.
The script must be renamed to ‘main.py’ beside ‘boot.py’… with any other names it will not work if running without the umbilical connection.
