Single connection

(ESP8266 as TCP client)

  1. Set wifi mode:
    AT+CWMODE=3 // softAP+station mode
    Response:OK
  2. Reboot to take effect:
    AT+RST
    Response:OK
  3. Connect to router
    AT+CWJAP="ssid","password" // ssid and password of router
    Response:OK
  4. Query device’s IP
    AT+CIFSR
    Response:192.168.3.106 // Device got an IP from router.
  5. Using a network tool (eg: ”NetAssist.exe”) on the computer to create a server.
    For example, server ip address:192.168.3.116, port 8080
  6. ESP8266EX connect to server as a client
    AT+CIPSTART="TCP","192.168.3.116",8080 //protocol、server IP & port
    Response:OK
  7. Send data
    AT+CIPSEND=4 // set date length which will be sent, such as 4 bytes

DGFY // enter the data, no CR
Response:SEND OK
Note: If the number of bytes sent is bigger than the size defined (n), will reply busy, and after sending n number of bytes, reply SEND OK.

  1. Receive data:
    +IPD,n:xxxxxxxxxx // received n bytes, data=xxxxxxxxxxx

Transparent transmission

  1. Set wifi mode:
    AT+CWMODE=3 // softAP+station mode
    Response:OK
  2. Connect to router
    AT+CWJAP="ssid","password" // ssid and password of router
    Response:OK
  3. Query device’s IP
    AT+CIFSR
    Response:192.168.101.105 // Device’s ip that got from router.
  4. Using a network tool (eg: ”NetAssist.exe”) on the computer to create a server.
    For example, server ip address:192.168.101.110, port 8080
  5. Device connect to server
    AT+CIPSTART="TCP","192.168.101.110",8080 // protocol、server IP & port
    Response:OK
    Linked
  6. Enable transparent transmission mode
    AT+CIPMODE=1
    Response:OK
  7. Start send
    AT+CIPSEND
    Response: >
    Note: From now on, data received from uart will be transparent transmited to server.
  8. Stop send
    Data packet contains only “+++” exits Unvarnished transmission.

Multiple connection

(ESP8266 as TCP server)

  1. Set wifi mode:
    AT+CWMODE=3 // softAP+station mode
    Response:OK
  2. Enable multiple connection
    AT+CIPMUX=1
    Response:OK
  3. Setup server
    AT+CIPSERVER=1 // default port = 333
    Response:OK
  4. PC connects to ESP8266EX softAP as station, then PC connects to ESP8266EX server as client.
    NOTE: ESP8266EX acting as server has a timeout mechanism. When connection is established and no data is transmitted within a period of time, it will disconnect the client. Please setup a recurring packet transmission every 5s on the computer to ensure connection is maintained.
  5. Send data
    AT+CIPSEND=4 // set date length which will be sent, such as 4 bytes

iopd // enter the data, no CR
Response:SEND OK
Note: If the number of bytes sent is bigger than the size defined (n), will reply busy, and after sending n number of bytes, reply SEND OK.

  1. Receive data: +IPD,n:xxxxxxxxxx // received n bytes, data = xxxxxxxxxx

UDP transmission

  1. Set wifi mode:
    AT+CWMODE=3 // softAP+station mode
    Response:OK
  2. Connect to router
    AT+CWJAP="ssid","password" // ssid and password of router
    Response:OK
  3. Query device’s IP
    AT+CIFSR
    Response:+CIFSR:STAIP,"192.168.101.104" // IP address of ESP8266 station
  4. PC connects to the same router which ESP8266 connects to. Using a network tool (eg: ”NetAssist.exe”) on the computer to create UDP .
  5. Enable multiple connection
    AT+CIPMUX=1
    Response:OK
  6. Create a UDP transmission, for example, id is 4.
    AT+CIPSTART=4,"UDP","192.168.101.110",8080,1112,0
    Response:4,CONNECT OK
    Note:
    "192.168.101.110",8080 here is the remote ip and port of UDP transmission which create on PC in step 4;
    1112 is the local port of ESP8266, user-define, if user does not define it, it will be a random value;
    0 means destination peer entity of UDP will not change. For example, in this case, if another PC also creates a UDP entity and sends data to ESP8266 port 1112, ESP8266 can receive these data, but when we send data with command “AT+CIPSEND=4,X”, it will still be sent to the first PC. If this parameter is not 0, it will send to the new PC.
  7. Send data
    AT+CIPSEND=4,5 // Send 5 bytes to transmission NO.4
    Response > DGFYQ // enter the data, no CR
    SEND OK
    Note: If the number of bytes sent is bigger than the size defined (n), will reply busy, and after sending n number of bytes, reply SEND OK.
  8. Receive data:
    +IPD,4,n:xxxxxxxxxx // received n bytes, data=xxxxxxxxxxx
  9. Delete transmission NO.4
    AT+CIPCLOSE=4
    Response:4,CLOSED OK
