You can find more information, programming code examples and detailed instructions about setting up and programming the ESP8266 here Also, when you start copying LUA code into the module, CoolTerm does a great job. Something like CoolTerm available here would do the job.

Then you need to choose a serial terminal to send commands to the serial module that will send commands to the ESP8266. For USB to serial, any FTDI232 based module will pretty much work, but be careful as they are counterfeit FTDI232 that can render useless, make sure whatever you get is genuine. The key things to know is that you will need a USB to serial module to initially talk to the ESP8266, be familiar with serial communication and able to do some script programming. There is plenty of material out there to get anyone going with this little wonder. The module also features a serial interface so you can communicate with it to program or debug it. This is perfect to drive LEDs or relays and make them open or close according to some logic and control, either running on the module or instructed via a web or TCP server. The ‘stuff’ is simply digital signals, a 0 or a 1, or in volts, a few millivolts or 3.3 volts.

8 GPIOs means that we can program the module so it can read and write stuff on these GPIOs. It has 8 available GPIOs (input/output ports or general purpose input/output) available, which was not enough for this application, but that was all I had. Figure 1 shows the ESP8266 ESP-12 which is the one I’ve chosen for the project. The ESP8266 comes in many different packages, depending on the number of I/O ports you want to have access to. The ESP8266 acts as an access point and/or a WIFI station, so once it is configured it acquires an IP address and then you can communicate with it via a web browser or a TCP connection (phone, tablet, computer, etc). LUA is a scripting language used widely in the gaming industry and I picked it to program the ESP8266 because of being compact, very high level and allowing me rapid prototyping. But it can also be programmed in LUA using the NodeMCU SDK (open source, just Google it or go to GitHub).

It can be programmed in C by flashing it with the manufacturer’s (Espressif) software development kit (SDK). The core control processor for the switch is a WiFi enabled microcontroller from Espressif with a very small footprint, the ESP8266. It is limited in its power handling and frequency bandwidth, but I believe it is of great use for most of ham radio operators.

Try to play first before installing the driver USB to TTL.This article describes the design and construction of a remote WiFi Antenna Switch for HF that is an order of magnitude more economical than any wireless remote switch available today. Or use other tools Serial Interface can be used as well as it can. If you are using AT Command was using the Arduino Sketch of Serial Monitor is a tool that must be used. Because of how similar many of the tools used. You ever play ESP8622 using Firmware of NodeCMU it easily adaptable bit. The devkit there are 10 port to port GPIO Digital and is the key to a Wifi Serial Therefore, I have Wifi Router to the Internet.You can create projects Internet of Thing to easily finish in a single board. But the Board has developed NodeMCU Firmware you to write Lua put into making applications easier I do not have a lot of peripherals to 10 GPIO ports adequate for NodeMCU devkit acquired a blank board using AT Command to operate independent life, not much.

Nodemcu out NodeMCU devkit, try playing board is a board that incorporates ESP8266 (ESP-12) + USB to Serial + NodeMCU firmware together.
