//#define BLYNK_DEBUG
#define BLYNK_PRINT Serial // Comment this out to disable prints and save space
#include <ESP8266.h>
#include <BlynkSimpleShieldEsp8266.h>

// Set ESP8266 Serial object
#define EspSerial Serial
// This can be a SoftwareSerial object (remember to also edit ESP8266.h):
#include <SoftwareSerial.h>
//SoftwareSerial EspSerial(0, 1); // RX, TX

ESP8266 wifi(EspSerial);

// You should get Auth Token in the Blynk App.
// Go to the Project Settings (nut icon).
char auth[] = “xxxxxxx”;

void setup()
{
Serial.begin(9600); // Set console baud rate
delay(10);
EspSerial.begin(9600); // Set ESP8266 baud rate
delay(10);

Blynk.begin(auth, wifi, “SKYxxxxx”, “xxxxxxx”);
}

void loop()
{
Blynk.run();
}
