1, Overview :
LC 5V ESP8288 four ways WiFi relay module carried a ESP-01 WiFi module and
mature 8 bit MCU.It could control the relay by cell phone APP within the local area
network (LAN).It is easy to set .

2, Function features :
1.on board high quality MCU and ESP-01WIFI module
2.two working mode :
Mode 1:cellphone carry on wifi module directly
Mode 2: cellphone and wifi module carry on router together
Additional function :work as USB module when disconnect ESP-01 module
3. Transmission distance:
(1) the open environment, the mobile phone when carrying on the WIFI module maximum
transmission distance of 100 m;
(2), when the WiFI module and cell phone carrying on the router at the same time the
signal transmission distance depends on router signal
4. Use the Smartconfig technology to complete the configuration of the account
and password of the esp-01 WIFI module on the mobile APP. The configured account
and password will be memorized after power off
5. The board contains 5V,10A/250V AC 10A/30V DC relay, which can
continuously absorb 100,000 times, with the protection of diode current and short
response time.
6. With mode option and working statue LED indicator
7. With 4 isolator and strong anti interference ability
8. Reserved UART debug interface and MCU download port for program

3, Hardware introduction :
Board size ：60*63mm
1，interface on board ：
IN+、IN-：5V voltage input ；
5V、GND、TX、RX：UART serial port PIN ；
SWIM、PIN8、NRST：reserved MCU download port 。
Button S1：change mode ，default mode is mode 1
Button S2：reset
LED D1/D2/D3/D4（red ）：relay working LED，LED on when relay is on
LED D7（red ）：indicator for mode 1
LED D5（blue）：indicator for mode 2
LED D6（green ）：work statue indicator ，exact details as below ：
(1)When extinguished, it is being configured or disconnected from the router.
(2)0.5s fast blinking represents cellphone app is configuring WIFI account and

2
password for ESP-01 module
(3)2S slow blinking to configure finished ,and wait for connection with
cellphone by TCP
(4) LED always on represents TCP connections with mobile phone successfully

Connection for reserved two cap jumper :

Generally ,insert them to bottom ,that is RX to RX1,TX to TX1 .Insert them to
upper ,when use it as USB module

Control command for relay （hex format ）：

Open relay 1 ：A0 01 01 A2
Close relay 1 ：A0 01 00 A1
Open relay 2 ：A0 02 01 A3
Close relay 2：A0 02 00 A2
Open relay 3 ：A0 03 01 A4
Close relay 3 ：A0 03 00 A3
Open relay 4 ：A0 04 01 A5
Close relay 4 ：A0 04 00 A4

Tips: all of the following are used to control the first 2 relay in the mobile phone APP.
The third and fourth way are the same, except that the relay control instructions are
different.

2，get ready for the following software and tools ：

(1)5V/1A adaptor and connect to IN+ and IN-；
(2)Install APP “EspTouch_Demo” android version to configure wifi account and
password for ESP-01 module on the first time of mode 2

3
(3)install APP “EasyTCP_20 “ on android cellphone .It is TCP transmitter tool for
sending instruction of relay .Clik “SWITCH” ,and always press gray block to popup
Button Editor interface .Then input button name and choose HEX ,and related
command .

4
3，setting for mode 1（cellphone carry on ESP-01 relay module ）：
（1）power on ESP-01 module ,green LED is out to 2s slow blinking after 4 s ,that
means ,configuration is finished

5
(2)EPS-01 module creates AP and connect with mobile phone

6
(3)log in app “EasyTCP_20 “,CLICK “CONNECT”,input IP 192.168.4.1 ,port
8080 ,then connect .The green LED will be 2s slow blinking to always on .Click gray
block to control the relay now .

7
8
4. Setting for mode 2 (cellphone and ESP-01 module carry on router together )
(1) Power on ESP-01 module ,press S1and change to mode 2 when green LED is on
slow blinking .Blue LED will be on at this time and green LED is out to 0.5s fast
blinking .The module is waiting for “EspTouch_Demo”APP configuring wifi account
and password .

9
(2) Log in “EspTouch_Demo”APP,input router password and confirm after cellphone
connects router successfully .

10
(3)When app creates IP (192.168.0.189 for example ) successfully ,ESP-01 module
connects router already .It will remember account and password .And it will connect
router automatically when go into mode 2 next time .

it is important to note:192.168.0.189 this IP address is dynamically allocated by

the router to ESP - 01 module.It may change after the next re-connection. User can
see the router device list of real-time IP address

11
(4)Log in EasyTCP_20”APP,click “CONNECT”,input IP of ESP-01
module :192.168.0.189 and port 8080 and connect .Green LED is from 2S slow
blinking to always on .Then click gray block to control the relay now .

12
5. additional function instruction (use as USB relay )
Prepare USB to TTL serial module .GND ,TX ,RX of TTL module connects to
CND,TX,RX of relay respectively .Remove ESP-01 module ,and choose mode
1.when green light turns into 2 s slow flash ,then open serial port debug software on
the computer (e.g., SSCOM32), select baud rate to 115200, send the relay control
command in hex format to open or close the corresponding relay,.Take the first relay
for example, sending A0 01 01 A2 can open the first relay .

Kindly note :
1. For the first time, it will take a little longer (about 1 minute) to configure the WIFI
password. After the configuration is completed, it will take 20 seconds to
automatically connect the next boot.
2. If you want to change the router, you can reset or press the S2 key (the WIFI
account and password of the previous memory will be cleared by the S2 key), and the
WIFI account and password will be configured for esp-01 in mode 2.
3. When ESP - 01 memory router signal is very weak or not in service area led to the
suspension of connection, the green light will go out and try to connect automatically,
buttons for invalid state in the process, when the green light is required to 2 s slow
flash has returned to the connection.
4. Mode 1 and mode 2 only use the key when the green light is 2 seconds slow flash
or normal, and the rest is self-configuring in the chip or waiting for the configuration
process, and the key is invalid.
5. The mobile phone and esp-01 will automatically disconnect the TCP connection
for more than 6 minutes, and then click "CONNNECT" in the upper right corner of
"EasyTCP 20" APP to re-establish the connection.
6. Regarding the UART interface of the board: when debugging 8266, the TX, RX
and GND of the USB TTL module are connected with the RX, TX and GND of the
relay module respectively; When the relay module is used as a USB relay, the TX, RX
and GND of the USB TTL module are connected to TX, RX and GND respectively.
7. For the reserved MCU program download port: when the onboard MCU is
STM8S003/STM8S103, NRST and SWIM are programming interfaces; When the
onboard MCU is N76E003, NRST, SWIM and PIN8 correspond to the RST, CLK and
DAT interfaces of the nu-link programming device.
8. The serial port rate of the onboard MCU is 115200, so please ensure that the baud
rate of the esp-01 module is 115200 when the APP is unable to connect with esp-01.
