Wifi Tallies for Oostendam

Changes summary:

The Wifi-tallies we use in our church only have an on(red) and off(black) colour. This is because it is confusing for the preacher to see 2 colours on 2 different camera's(red and green for active and ready).

Also we had issues with the wifi, the tallies would blink blue which is something we did not want. So we changed it that when there is a failure with the tallies they will not respond.

Setup:

see also: https://wifi-tally.github.io/getting-started/setup-wifi-tally.html

We do not use the fancy(and better) ws2812 leds yet, but just plain RGB leds. Pinouts:

Board pin Strip pin
D3 B
D2 R
D1 G
3.3V Vcc

Install:

First we need to flash the firmware to the ESP8266. I recommend downloading the latest release from https://github.com/nodemcu/nodemcu-firmware. Alternatively you can also compile the firmware yourself.

Flash the firmware with a command similar to this:

python3 -m esptool --port /dev/ttyUSB0 write_flash -fm qio 0x00000 Releases/0.5.0/nodemcu-3.0-master_20200610-cfe68233-float.bin

Define wifi settings

Go to the folder:

wifi-tally/tally/out

You need to edit the file tally-settings.ini according to the wifi settings in your location.

Next you need to flash the actual code. To do this you can use ESPlorer. You need to flash all the files in wifi-tally/tally/out. At this point everything should work.
