3. Інструкції з налаштування

1. Install CH340G Driver: Before using the adapter, ensure the CH340G USB to serial TTL chip driver is installed on your computer. Drivers are typically available from the chip manufacturer's website or the product support page.
2. Connect ESP-01S Module: Carefully plug your ESP-01 or ESP-01S Wi-Fi module into the yellow pin header on the adapter. Ensure correct orientation, aligning the pins of the module with the header.
3. Виберіть режим роботи: Use the on-board toggle switch to select the desired mode:
   • Переключитися на UART side for serial TTL debugging using AT commands.
   • Переключитися на ПРОГ side for firmware programming of the ESP8266.
4. Підключення до ПК: Plug the USB end of the adapter into an available USB port on your computer.

4.1. Firmware Programming (PROG Mode)

To program new firmware onto your ESP-01S module:

1. Ensure the ESP-01S module is correctly installed on the adapter.
2. Set the toggle switch on the adapter to the ПРОГ положення.
3. Connect the adapter to your PC's USB port.
4. Open your preferred ESP8266 flashing tool (e.g., ESP Flash Download Tools, Arduino IDE).
5. Select the correct COM port assigned to the CH340G chip.
6. Load your firmware (.bin) file into the flashing tool.
7. Initiate the flashing process. The tool will typically indicate completion.
8. Once flashing is complete, disconnect the adapter from the PC.
9. Switch the toggle to UART mode for normal operation or debugging.
10. Reconnect the adapter to the PC.

4.2. Serial Debugging (UART Mode)

For serial communication and debugging with your ESP-01S module:

1. Ensure the ESP-01S module is correctly installed on the adapter.
2. Set the toggle switch on the adapter to the UART положення.
3. Connect the adapter to your PC's USB port.
4. Open a serial terminal program (e.g., Arduino Serial Monitor, PuTTY).
5. Configure the serial terminal with the correct COM port and a baud rate of 115200.
6. You can now send AT commands or view serial output from your ESP-01S module.
