- In this video we will show you how to disassemble the Sonoff RF Bridge and flash Tasmota on it, then configure it for later use with node red. Sonoff RF Bridge can receive motion and door sensor readings and also control RF devices running on 433hz RF signal
I found that you can populate all the headers if you use right-angle header pins mounted on the back of the board - it will still fit in the plastic enclosure. You still have to lift the backlight a bit to do the soldering - just point the pins in opposite directions and fit a connector during soldering to ensure they don't interfere.
actually just directly holding the pins to the board flashes the board smoothly, even if it disconnects in between you can flash it again it is safe
cannot understand or hear well what device the 4 wires on bridge are being connected to and there is no parts list included in a description to help me figure it out
Hi. The 4 wires are tc rx vcc and ground. You connect them to ttl usb device
hi, where i can download the soft necesary?
Could you flash with the cables from the back? So you don't need to lift the led thingies? I believe the switch can be reached from the side without raising the led
The led is not that hard to lift just do it slowly and up to 90 degrees only. I dont think you can reach the switch without doing that but yes you can connect the pins from the back too
Thank you! This is the best guide I found. I am waiting for my bridge to arrive and then I will try it.
Good luck!
Thanks, how do I switch off the sonoff bridge without powering down? It is working as an alarm that cannot be put off which is a pain, when I am home or has to keep going off because I am there, unplugging the unit doesn't sound right, what should I do
This needs a software solution. You can use node red for example by pinging your phone ip in your home wifi if it is available then you are at home and don't sound the alarm
Hi, using Tasmota on Sonoff Bridge, can I register more than 16 devices?
Can I register the sensor scrolling code?
Can I register more alarm devices?
Thank you.
Sorry, I don't know that, can you try posting to tasmota github?
Thank u verry good work
very useful - thanks
the white flap you lift up to access the pins, any idea what it is?
that is the green led which shines beneath transparent sonoff logo on top of the device.
Hello there, thanks a lot for the information, I just flash 8 sonoff basic and one rf bridge but now the rf brig is not sending or receiving anything, the rf led is not flashing at all, the switch is back to the on position, please help
subscribe me plz I'm his daughte
how many sensores can i have ?
and can i take any device that has 433? or do i need only sonoff stuff?
It can control max 16 devices but i dont know how many max sensors, also didn't try devices that are not sonoff. If you have tried please let us know. Couldn't find any articles on the internet too unfortunately
@@alsolh sure thing i ordered some online i will post once i test
with the home assistant, it's virtually limitless. I found a tutorial that you can use the codes that your sensor spits out and use I use node red to do my automation. mostly open and close sensors, motion sensor and leak sensor. pretty much anything that compatible to this bridge.
@@AnoNymous-lp5tb Hi yes i got my Brige , its working great 17+ sensors
you can "read" limitless nr of sensors. you can control (send out) only 16 devices.
it works with sonoff RF devices and limited number of other manufacturers, but no rule. Just being lucky with some non-sonoff rf emitter. In my case I was lucky with some light RF controllers, but with my garage opener not.
Then I flashed bridge with Portisch FW, after which bridge could "read" any RF device.
How did you managed to flash without even soldering
Just put the pins inside the holes in the board, hold down the reset switch and plug the FTDI adapter into your computer.
I've flahsed all of my sonoff switches without even touching a soldering iron. I'm using clothespins to keep the jumper wires for 3,3 volt and ground in place. And I'm using my hands to hold down RX and TX during the flashing process.
I recommend the Portisch RF firmware upgrade - much more responsive and flexible.
i actually switched now to openmqttgateway, it is really great and works with multiple hubs
what the fine is that software you are using?
i didnt get your question dear
How are you connecting the cable to the sonoff unit since it doesn't have any pins (it just has holes)?
You can either use male to female jumper wires or buy some header pins
Did you solder header pins?
Doesn't looks like it, he was keeping them wedged into place with pressure.
I was told to be cautious when dealing with circuit boards this compact because of heat transferred to other components.
Why is this video referenced on the Portische firmware upgrade page, when it does NOT show how to upgrade to Portische?
Where can I buy one already flashed ?
Why would you dear, it is relatively easy to flash it yourself.
@@alsolh Not for me.... Don't have enough time and I think this could be complicated.
Quanchy Plimp, yeah, Maybe Hard work is not for me. I have money and want to spend it to prove the hardware.
I think Jose Luis Mendez makes a valid point here. There are a few important points left out in the tutorial and the video takes it for granted that the typical audience of this video has an Arduino IDE installed, that they know how to set it up, know where to download the correct software for Tasmota and so on. It is for advanced users who have flashed a Sonoff to Tasmota before. I cannot imagine it can be learned in a few hours as Quanchy Plimp says.
To get back to your question: I have no clue where you can buy one already flashed. But if you send me one, I will flash it for you. Nevertheless, later on you have to configure the Sonoff-Tasmota yourself.
Great tut 👍
Why showing the bathroom before starting video?
To demonstrate the motion sensor triggering opening the light
@@alsolh Hi, good video. Can you share some sample code for node red? Like putting your lamp on by motion? Thanks!
@@geertbarents8633 the node red flow is available here github.com/alsolh/smarthome/blob/master/README.md
Work with Home Assistant? Thanks
Setup an MQTT bridge (Mosquitto is the most popular) and connect that to HA
I managed to decode some RF signals but I can't control any of my devices, how do I even know the signals are being sent properly? I used several BitBucketConverter.py versions, I used several Tasmota versions, several portisch firmware versions and can't get it to work... Here is a post I submitted showing my hardware: groups.google.com/forum/#!msg/sonoffusers/4WYvPHDsihE/ntVgKABYCAAJ
i am frankly using it only to receive rf signals, for control i use broadlink rm pro
