4. Instruccions de configuració

Follow these steps to set up your ESP32 WiFi 4 Channel Relay Module:

4.1. Component Identification and Pinout

Before connecting, familiarize yourself with the module's components and pin assignments. Refer to the diagram below for a clear understanding of each terminal and indicator.

Figure 4: Labeled diagram of the module's connections and features.

• AC 220V Power Supply: Connect your AC 220V power source here.
• DC 7-30V Power Supply: Connect your DC 7-30V power source here.
• GND: Ground connection for DC power.
• Font d'alimentació de 5 V: 5V output for external components.
• Llum indicadora de relé: LEDs that illuminate when the corresponding relay is active.
• Llum indicador d'alimentació: Indicates the module is powered on.
• LED programable: A user-controllable LED.
• ESP-32E: The main ESP32-WROOM-32E module.
• Botó de restabliment: Resets the ESP32 module.
• Relay Connections (NO, COM, NC): Each of the four relays has Normally Open (NO), Common (COM), and Normally Closed (NC) terminals for connecting loads.

4.2. Connexió a la font d'alimentació

Choose one of the following power supply methods:

• Alimentació CA: Connect AC 220V to the designated AC 220V terminals (L and N).
• Potència CC: Connect DC 7-30V to the DC 7-30V terminals, ensuring correct polarity (positive to VCC, negative to GND).

Caution: Ensure only one power source is connected at a time. Incorrect wiring can damage the module or connected devices.

4.3. Connecting Loads to Relays

Each relay provides three terminals: Normally Open (NO), Common (COM), and Normally Closed (NC). To control a load:

• For a load that should be OFF when the relay is inactive and ON when active, connect one side of the load to the COM terminal and the other side to the NO terminal.
• For a load that should be ON when the relay is inactive and OFF when active, connect one side of the load to the COM terminal and the other side to the NC terminal.

Warning: Always ensure the load's voltage and current ratings are within the relay's specifications (AC250V/DC30V, 10A) to prevent damage or hazards.

4.4. Programació del Mòdul

The module can be programmed using the Arduino IDE. You will need a USB to TTL adapter to connect the module's UART program download port to your computer. The GPIO pins for the relays and programmable LED are as follows:

• Relleu 1: GPIO32
• Relleu 2: GPIO33
• Relleu 3: GPIO25
• Relleu 4: GPIO26
• LED programable: GPIO23

After initial programming via UART, Over-The-Air (OTA) updates can be configured for wireless code uploads.

5. Instruccions de funcionament

Once programmed, the ESP32 module will execute the uploaded code to control the relays and other functionalities. The relay indicator lights will show the current state of each relay (ON/OFF).

• Control sense fil: Utilize the ESP32's WiFi capabilities to integrate the module into your smart home network. This allows for remote control of connected devices via a smartphone app, web interface, or home automation platform.
• Control manual: The programmable button can be configured in your code to trigger specific actions, such as toggling a relay or changing modes.

6. Manteniment

To ensure the longevity and reliable operation of your module, follow these maintenance guidelines:

• Mantenir sec: Protect the module from moisture and humidity to prevent short circuits and corrosion.
• Neteja: Keep the board free from dust and debris. Use a soft, dry brush or compressed air for cleaning. Avoid liquid cleaners.
• Temperatura: Operate the module within its specified temperature range. Avoid extreme heat or cold.
• Manejar amb cura: Avoid dropping or subjecting the module to physical shock. When handling, minimize contact with electronic components to prevent electrostatic discharge.

7. Solució De Problemes

If you encounter issues with your module, consider the following troubleshooting steps:

• Sense llum indicadora d'alimentació:
  • Verifiqueu que la font d'alimentació estigui connectada correctament i que proporcioni el volum especificattage (AC220V or DC5-30V).
  • Comproveu si hi ha connexions soltes o cables danyats.
• Relay Not Switching:
  • Ensure your code is correctly configured to activate the desired GPIO pin for the relay (GPIO32, GPIO33, GPIO25, GPIO26).
  • Check the load connections (NO, COM, NC) for proper wiring.
  • Verify the load's power requirements are within the relay's capacity.
• Problemes de connectivitat Wi-Fi:
  • Confirm the WiFi credentials (SSID and password) in your ESP32 code are correct.
  • Ensure the module is within range of your WiFi network.
  • Check for any firewall or router settings that might be blocking the connection.
• Programming Upload Failure:
  • Ensure the correct board and port are selected in the Arduino IDE.
  • Verify the USB to TTL adapter is functioning correctly and its drivers are installed.
  • Check the wiring between the module's UART port and the USB to TTL adapter.
