IOT| Home Automation | Sonoff 4ch Pro part1| Tutorial # 20

[@roberte8466]

hi thanks for the video, what about fusing of the Lights? is there not any over load protection or RCD needed? Cheers

[@meuap1048]

Good night. To disable the control knob is the same process? Press twice on the device and press the control button?

[@tagi8988]

is it possible to operate the Sonoff with 230v input and 24v AC output via an external power supply?

[@alexandrlokotkov7498]

Даже не зная английский, понял! Красвчик👍

[@SunShineLabzRaj]

Nice tutorial. Can you please let me know which GPIO pins the 4 relays are connected to micro controller ?

[@techart342]

Hi I wish you could help me about this device is there a capability of connecting one Android phone to a multiple sonoff 4ch

[@leglessinoz]

The incoming active/live/hot connection is not load. Load is whatever you are controlling. ie the output side

[@johnypoez]

what is the wifi distance range of this

[@BrunoLopes01]

Nice tutorial!!! I have one question, is it possible to have the Sonoff send an RF signal? So for example, from the application I press the button and the Sonoff sends an RF signal to an equipment?

[@f05]

whats d difference with this 4ch pro and d 4ch pro r2?

[@Vidarbhachakunal]

Brother i have one question. If there is no wifi connection after installation of sonoff 4 ch and 4 ch pro then without wifi can i use the given buttons on the sonoff device without internet. Please answer. I will be waiting.

[@netmedias7657]

Yes, you can use the buttons to control it manually.

[@bruceturner8736]

I plan on using the 4ch pro to control my evaporative cooler (8amp motor) I"m wondering what size wire can the unit accept? I will be using ch1 for the pump ch2 for the motor on/off output to ch3 and use ch3 to switch between low and high motor.

[@netmedias7657]

you can use 14 gauge wire

[@luizbrasi]

Olá,muito bom o video! Esse aparelho possui dimmer pra regular a intensidade da luz? se não tiver,conhece algum outro aparelho que possua essa funcao?abcs

[@arjundhar7729]

That was really nice. 2 Questions though, hoping you can help... 1. In your demo you hotwired LINE as common for all relays. However lets say I have 2 water pump (for each floor) and a house as 2 AC lines for each floor. The N,L are obviously independent. Can a RELAY Line and neutral to the device for any one motor, be independent of the control one? (Same phase or different - Would that also matter?) 2. This switch says 10A gang. Is that 10A per Relay or is the maths different?

[@mukeshm6382]

hi can you suggest any 8 or 16 channel switch

[@mixlimantz]

Can i use this Sonoff like this: input AC and output DC? Thank you for your tutorial!

[@DigitalAwareness]

can this unit take a temp/hum sensor

[@netmedias7657]

No

[@MrNiven13]

Hi bro can i used it to control up down and stop button in my rolling shutter. As my motor is a 3phase one help me

[@netmedias7657]

Yes, don't use the mains voltage to rely and use with garage door using inching mode or delay. You won't be able to detect the garage door status open or close. You can use the following tutorial to full control. kzbin.info/www/bejne/qXetdpKGqLqfo5o

[@singhnp4373]

Nice tutorial, well presented and described... very easy to understand. I have one problem with switch if you can help, my problem I am using 2 channels (2,4) one channel right one(default on) and other from remote.. problem defaults one switch on but when I start other optional channel... the default one also switched on and am not able to switch iteoff

[@muhammadimrantarar6996]

Our farm is 2 km from our house. Where we want to operate some electrical appliances from home via a remote controlled device. We also have Wi-Fi networks there to monitor some cameras and some security devices. This Wi-Fi network has also been attached to the Internet. The question is can we use the SONOFF 4Ch Pro R2 device to operate the device at home or anywhere on the internet? Or this device can only be used while on site Can this device be operated by more than one user?

[@netmedias7657]

Yes, you can control it from any where in the world as long as you are connected to internet. Also more than one user can control them.

[@bogdan1802]

Hi! Quick question, on 4CHPROR3 how do you reset it to factory defaults? I have a strange situation, it has the default firmware on it and when i ask to turn on all lights only 3 turn on, one remains off. If i go and turn on specifically that channel relay it works just fine. any ideas pls? thx!

[@netmedias7657]

Please put back the jumper in default setting.

[@bobthedino2007]

Wow, at 12:00 your thumb is very close to the high voltage power supply section... extremely dangerous!

[@rescuecow90]

Is it possible to wire extra manual switches? Also can two remotes be used?

[@netmedias7657]

You can add extra switch using external relays but you will need custom firmware. It will not work with original firmware. I am not sure about the 2 remotes.

[@bf0101]

What is the difference between self-locking and inching mode?? Still don't get it.

[@funtv3604]

well i m bit confused when you say "load wire" does it mean to power the "sonof 4ch pro device" from phase ?? what i understand about load is any resistance like globe , fan , or GPOs.... please correct me if i m wrong...

[@netmedias7657]

Hot wire.

[@AlexSavage]

I've used my 4CH Pro with tradition 3 way/4way wall switches. The only problem that I have is that once the toggle switch is used it inverts the on/off function. I hope you there's a simple way to detect current and report back to HA or something. I know your a clever fella and you will figure something out! Nice job on all you videos!

[@netmedias7657]

Alex Savage Thank you for your feedback. I have your request on to do list. Please watch following tutorial. I found a simpler way to detect the current flow. kzbin.info/www/bejne/a4TKc2mtr8yrj5I&lc=UgwN2Sqds0vXDicTj-h4AaABAg

[@SnowsLife]

Thanks man , Helped me out with how to turn on Self locking mode. My home lights were turning on in interlock and I was clueless as to why !

[@netmedias7657]

Thank you for your feedback.

[@rescuecow90]

Can anyone tell me what battery the remote fob users?

[@MrJesus4194]

I have two units. I was able to connect the first to the router but I can not connect the second unit to wifi. Both work with rf but only the first unit through wifi. Any ideas.

[@netmedias7657]

Jesus Torres Try taking the first one of the network by power it off and then try to setup the second one. Once it is setup plug both on them and make sure use different device names. Good luck.

[@MrJesus4194]

Netmedias , thanks for the suggestion. Unfortunately, it did not work. Any other suggestions.

[@giofano]

How can I set the switches to turn on and off multiple times during the day ? Also I would like to make it on for 12 minutes instead of 0.5 second Thank you

[@netmedias7657]

Use the mobile app. It has more control but I am not sure if you will get everything you want. Good luck

[@NeimarDeCesero]

Please, as I call the sonoff 4ch pro in parallel with house switches. I've tried searching the internet and found nothing about it. I need a lot of help.

[@REDMED2012]

Awesome Tutorial, Is it possible to turn on/off lights using wifi but also keeping the old wall switch.

[@yoefh001]

Reda Bh. Wouldn't settling the sonoff relay ON with the old switch in series give the old switch on/off control?

[@johncarey264]

hi this is tops im going to this my projector screen can you tell me how to name so can ask my echo spot to turn on and turn off the screen please and can i link the lights in lounge to go off at time screen come down

[@netmedias7657]

You can use your mobile app to name each switch and use schedule in app to set lights timings.

[@WilliamJoseph2015]

do you need a wifi router? Can it just work with my phone's wifi???

[@netmedias7657]

It can work with phone wifi hotspot.

[@WilliamJoseph2015]

@@netmedias7657 thank you. I've been researching and found something called LAN connection so it can work if internet is off.

[@EoinHealy]

Is the setup and configuration the same for DC power?

[@netmedias7657]

Yes, See the plug configuration.

[@StjepanBrbot]

This is the tutorial for old version (revision) of Sonoff's 4CHPRO module. In new 4CHpro R3 module (revision 3) there's no need for opening box and physical DIP switches setup, all can be done through eWeLink application.

[@user-od3rl5mc]

Awesome video dude! What tool do you use to draw your schematics?

[@netmedias7657]

No. All or none.

[@einnairo]

Great stuff man Is it possible to do a tutorial on how to control motorized Gates with Alexa? My guy feel is u can do it with this setup. Currently gate opens with remote like the one u have here. Pressing A opens. A again and it stops. A again and it closes. If u do not interrupt when A is pressed so that the gate opens completely, then pressing A again would close the gate, and vice versa.

[@netmedias7657]

J T Yes, you can flash your on sketch and control AC and DC devices.

[@MartynCole]

Amazon have screwed with my Amazon Echo and it no longer detects any of my home made devices.

[@DrexProjects]

I just checked my Echo and the Sonoffs are still working. I wonder what happened to yours.

[@MartynCole]

Devices that are already discovered still work fine. It's new devices that don't get discovered that is the problem. The discovering message has changed, saying to activate the appropriate skill for your device.

[@DrexProjects]

I had that problem with google home. I had to unlink the ewelink app then link it again. and then it was ok. try removing the skill then adding it again.

[@AlexSavage]

All my homemade devices work just fine. I had this problem once but I can't remember the fix, it just worked at some point. Google it

[@DaveTaste]

Lol

[@ravindrarodrigo7476]

Thanks for clear explain dear. Wishing all the best

[@netmedias7657]

ravindra rodrigo Thank you.

[@Rayy78152]

Can I close it after I’ve done connecting it internally inside walls

[@netmedias7657]

It depends on your climate. If there is no air circulation it may heat up under heavy load so be care full. If load is light then you should be fine.

[@kirksteinklauber260]

Can you do a tutorial using Sonoff 4CH Pro to control a Garage door?

[@netmedias7657]

Kirk Steinklauber it is on my to do list. Stay tuned.

[@kirksteinklauber260]

Netmedias great thanks!!

[@timmyball5268]

I wonder is some one could help, just brought this and it seems to work well from the Phone app. But I’m trying to hook up my RF remote It’s a 4 button 433Mhz remote. I pair switch A to R1. When I press button A it works 👍 but R1 is also controlled by Buttons B C and D If I go ahead and pair R2 to button B, now all buttons control R2. Am I doing something wrong or do I have a faulty remote ?

[@netmedias7657]

Timmy Ball Clear the paring for all buttons and try to pair it one by one again.

[@ronaldpgarcia]

Thanks for this very easy to learn video about Sonoff. BTW, can this be controlled using Arduino as well?

[@netmedias7657]

Ronald Garcia Yes, I am going to do this in next tutorial (part 2).

[@ronaldpgarcia]

Thank you! I'll stay tuned.

[@viniciusnoyoutube]

I would like to control the Sonoff 4CH Pro R2 using a RF 433MHZ modulo with a Arduino. Does anyone know how to? Could you make a video about it? Thanks.

[@akshatakatakol9839]

Hi, Great Video however I think you should explain or give examples to use interlocking and self locking scenarios. I mean what those modes will be capable of doing. This video feels like made for people who regularly deal with electronic boards, not for somebody who doesnt have any idea. Also, can you please tell me what's the difference between sonoff 4ch, 4ch pro and 4ch r2? Appreciate it!!

[@netmedias7657]

I will do that in part 2. Stay tuned.

[@SGScaper]

Very useful tutorial. Thanks. BTW can you inform on how I can go about to control 6 devices via mobile app. I know one pro switch controls upto 4 devices. I add one more pro switch for the reminder 2 devices. But how does one control all 6 devices from one mobile app or is there a work around to my problem. Thanks :-)

[@netmedias7657]

You can follow same steps to add additional switches. I will do a tutorial to add multiple switches.

[@SGScaper]

Please do. I'm waiting for it. I just subbed to you :-)
