So I bought a HM-10 clone -> SH-HC-08 because I thought it was compatible, at least beta. I’ve scoured through forums going back 3 years and there are no real solutions. The module was tested with other apps to confirm its working. Baud is default 9600 according to the specs sheets. I am working with the example sketch Blynky Blink . I have reversed the RX/TX pins to no avail. I have a cloned nano and have tried pins 10,11 and 6,7. I have an iphone X, so I cannot use the beta app but if someone knows if I can get a beta library or some other solutions would be appreciated.
Also another thing I would like to ask is my BlynkysimpleBLE.h or however is always grayed out but I have confirmed it’s in my library which I have done 2 clean installs of. Would this cause problems?
I usually get 3 or more lines of connecting in console and then it timesout. The BLE module would be best for my scenario because it’s more compact. Thanks in advanced.
Sorry. I did not know there was a beta app for iOS! My only other option is a esp8266 module. If I try to use the breakout board it will not fit into my project without Mad Maxing it. Thanks again!
And the BlynksimpleBLE.h is always grayed in sketches but I haven’t gotten any errors uploading the sketches.
If problems persists would the esp 8266 work with a nano? Software serial should work? Because it’s not a drop down option, plug and play.
I still cannot connect to SH-HC-08 with the beta app. I modified the Blynk Blink sketch to include
void loop()
{
if (SerialBLE.available()) {
Blynk.run();
}
because I read somewhere that it might help.
Has anyone gotten a hm-10 or hc-08 working with iOS? Can you share the steps you’ve taken to make it work seamlessly.
I haven’t ever made BT/BLE work seamlessly, reliably, etc. At least with Blynk… so I guess that is my point
I think you are confusing the IDE’s colouring scheme as an issue… that’s just the way it looks.
Yes, I use the ESP-01 as a WiFi shield on a few different Arduinos, it has its detractors and can be persnickety to set up for some, but once done it is seamless. I even use one programmed as a “standalone” Blynk project, and it works perfectly as long as you only need 2 (or possibly 3) pins,
