Flash Mode: "DOUT" <<<<!!!! Flash Size: "1M (no SPIFFS)" <<<<!!!! Debug Port: "Disabled" Debug Level: "None" LwIP Variant: "v1.4 Prebuilt" <<<<!!! Reset Method: "ck" Crystal Frequency: "26 MHz" Flash Frequency: "40MHz" Upload Using: "Serial" CPU Frequency: "80 MHz" Upload Speed: "115200" Port: Your COM port connected to sonoff </code> - for the Wimos D1 mini boards I used these settings (despite mine was called D1 mini and there is also a board setting for the mini, but it didn't upload the sketch when it got bigger than a very small size): <code> Board: "Wemos D1 R2" Flash Size: "4M (1M SPIFFS)" </code> leave the rest to the defaults setup_arduino_ide_for_esp8266.txt Last modified: 10.03.2018 05:16by Pascal Suter
