For my project I have been sniffing the traffic between the slave and tasmota. This is what I'm seeing.

Tasmota 8.2.0.1 and Tasmota 8.1.0.5 working fine, I see this traffic send to the slave when doing
slavesend command and status 8 command to get the slave tele.

 tasmota 8.2.0.1
baudrate 38400
ü[05][1A][00][00]ýþp[0].b[0].bg_color=#ff0000ÿü[02][00][00][00]ýü[02][00][00][00]ý

tasmota 8.1.0.5
baudrate 115200
ü[05][1A][00][00]ýþp[0].b[0].bg_color=#ff0000ÿü[02][00][00][00]ýü[02][00][00][00]ý

On Tasmota 8.2.0.6 data send to the slave is different. Same commands send as above.

Tasmota 8.2.0.6  

baudrate 38400
þ[05][1A][00][00]ýþp[0].b[0].bg_color=#ff0000ÿþ[02][00][00][00]ýþ[02][00][00][00]ý

baudrate 115200
ÿ[05][1A][00][00]ýþp[0].b[0].bg_color=#ff0000ÿÿ[02][00][00][00]ýÿ[02][00][00][00]ý
ÿ[05][1A][00][00]ýþp[0].b[0].bg_¬±½Éõ#ff0000ÿÿ[02][00][00][00]ýÿ[02][00][00][00]ý

Data send out from the slave however does come through to tasmota, although somewhat garbled.
I have the slave do publish command.
```23:04:16 MQT: hasp/state/page = 1
23:04:19 MQT: hasp/state/json = {"p[1].b[1].event":"DOWN"}
23:04:19 MQT: hasp/state/idle = OFF
23:04:19 MQT: hasp/state/json = {"p[1].b[1].ev�nt":"SHORT"}
23:04:19 MQT: hasp/state/json = {"p[1].b[1].event":"UP"}
23:05:22 MQT: hasp/state/idle = SHORT

I build tasmota 8.2.0.6 with slavespeed on 9600 baudrate and then it works but data is sometimes jumbled.

:31:56 MQT: hasp/state/json = {"p[0].b[9].event":"UP"}
00:31:56 MQT: hasp/state/json = {"p[0].b[9].event":"DOWN"�
00:31:56 MQT: hasp/state/json = {"p[0].b[9].event":"SHORT"}
00:31:56 MQT: hasp/state/json = {"p[0].b[9].event":"UP"}
00:31:56 MQT: hasp/state/json = {"p[0].b[9].event":"DOWN"}
00:31:56 MQT: hasp/state/json = {"p[0].b[9].event":"SHORT"�
00:31:57 MQT: hasp/state/json = {"p[0].b[9].event":"UP"}
```
If I can try anything to test let me know, I'm continuing to work with one of my older build.

So to make sure, v7.1.2.6 functions OK, 8.2.0.5 doesn't function correctly?

arendst picture arendst on 2 May 2020

No.
Both 7.1.2.6 and 8.2.0.5 do NOT work correctly.

TrDA-hab picture TrDA-hab on 2 May 2020

I can replace the Arduino Pro Mini with the Arduino Nano and repeat the test. If you are interested.

TrDA-hab picture TrDA-hab on 2 May 2020

Ok.

I have no Nano connected and never used it but I noticed with your current setup you use Software Serial. If you swap TX/RX it should switch to Hardware serial which, I suspect would work fine.

Again, I have no nano attached but I see this on the serial connected console with hardware serial:

fc 01 00 00 00 fd                                ü....ý

I don't see the fc 01 00 00 00 fd with Software Serial so I suspect Hardware Serial does better work than software serial.

Could you give it a try?

NB. This is the last part on the GUI console after a restart:

I can try it.
What version of Tasmota should I use?

TrDA-hab picture TrDA-hab on 2 May 2020

Try whatever you have active, they all supported hardware serial. I suggest the latest though.

Can I still help?

Ever tried to swap the wires too (humbly asking)

Do I need to swap Tx and Rx wires? It is easy. Now I will do it.

At least the version has changed :-(

Anyway. I will hookup a nano too and dive in the wonderful world of Tasmota Slave.

NB. I understand the nano needs at least the TasmotaSlave library too to be able to respond with the correct version being 20191129 as that is the string to be tested. You have that installed on the Nano?

Now I am using Arduino Pro Mini (3.3V 8MHZ Atmega328P).
If necessary, I can install NANO, it will take some time.

TrDA-hab picture TrDA-hab on 2 May 2020

No. Just leave it for now.

I expect the last 29 you received means the comms is fine but just the characters don't make it. So the hardware is connected OK. You might want to try a lower baudrate but the Hardware Serial should have been able to handle this without error.

It looks as if there is someting basics wrong other than comms reliability.

As said, I'm trying to regain my Arduino environment and flash a nano mini.

arendst picture arendst on 2 May 2020

Should I synchronously change the speed in the firmware of the slave? Or just in the ESP8266?

No need. I have hooked it up and see the same error as you do.

I will investigate the communication between the two. Will take some time.

I'm out of ideas. Nothing works.

TrDA-hab picture TrDA-hab on 2 May 2020

Did you try at 9600 for tasmota and the slave?
At that speed software and hardware serial work for me.

When I increase the speed to 57600 hardware serial keeps working but software serial does not.

With software serial communication from tasmota to the slave is broken, communication from the slave to tasmota still works. Which is why, in my case, tasmota still sees the slave on start up.
Software serial 9600, tasmota sees the slave and communication works 2-ways.

The only thing I see is that the character which indicates the start of the command is different when using software serial and some higher speed than 9600.
