Hi am working on a project that uses two ESP8266 units. One has a sensor on it that when activated will notify the other using the WIFI feature. the second ESp8266 will make a sound when the signal is received.
I have fallen at the first hurdle as I cannot get my second ESp8266 to talk to the buzzer. I have a very simple hobbiest piezo buzzer and have wired it D8 to positive on the controller and GR to negative. I have then taken the code from this example and uploaded the sketch:
ESP8266 - Piezo Buzzer | ESP8266 Tutorial (newbiely.com)
When I reset or plug in the blue light flashes, but nothing at all from the buzzer.
I have done exactly the same with an Arduino UNO and it works fine, it makes its little tune and all is well.
I figured maybe the controller is dead, but I have another sketch the connects it my my WIFI and that works ok. (I have 3 of these little controllers and they all do the same).
Can anyone offer any advice??
