ESP32 WEMOS D1 R32 and Water Leak Sensor (Replace Arduino with ESP-based board)

The EzloPi smart devices provide automation through simple, customizable use with our open-source EzloPi platform, making daily life easier and improving human-machine interactions.

Before moving into this example, it is very important to know about the device registration, provisioning and converting the ESP32 device into an EzloPi device along with knowledge of Web Flasher, MiOS Mobile Application for Android/iOS and the MiOS Web Application.

1. About this example

In this project demonstration, we will show you how to convert an existing project into a smart project using the ESP32 development board. The ESP-based EzloPi device provides the capabilities to convert your hardware (projects or devices/Sensors) into IoT capable devices. This following user guide will take you through the steps to make existing Arduino projects into smart projects using ESP MCU based boards. We can get an understanding for this easy process of converting existing projects into smart EzloPi projects by interfacing the water leak sensor.

2. Project Demonstration Video

Welcome to the project demonstration video section. The following video showcases the key aspects of ESP32 WEMOS D1 R32 and Water Leak Sensor (Replace Arduino with ESP-based board), providing a visual walkthrough of its implementation.

3. Circuit Diagram & Interface

The following components are required for interfacing with the EzloPi device:

  • ESP32 WEMOS D1 R32 as an EzloPi smart device.
  • SEN18 Water Leak Sensor.

The wiring diagram for ESP32 WEMOS D1 R32 is represented as follows:

The following connections are made in order to complete the entire circuit setup.

From ESP32 to Water leak sensor:

  • Connect 3V3 from the ESP32 WEMOS D1 R32 to the VCC of the sensor.
  • Connect GND from the ESP32 WEMOS D1 R32 to the GND pin of the sensor.
  • Connect D32 from the ESP32 WEMOS D1 R32 to the Signal (S) pin of the sensor.

4. Interfacing the Water Leak Sensor using the EzloPi Web Flasher

  1. Set up your device/hardware by visiting config.ezlopi.com
Dimmable LED
  1. Log in using the credentials which you just set earlier while signing up.
  1. Now, click on the Connect Device button and a pop-up window will appear.
  1. Now, select COM Port to which your ESP32 device is connected. In our case, the COM3 port is used.

Click Connect

  1. If you are new to this and it’s your first time configuring, select Create new Device ID. Enter Wifi SSID and Wifi Password.
  2. In the Device Configuration, tab click on Analog Input.

7. An Analog Input window will open for inputting the following parameters:

  • Set a device name of your choosing. In our case, we set it to the Water Sensor.
  • Set ADC INPUT PIN to 32.
  • Set Device subtype to Water Leak Sensor.
  • Now Click the Apply button.
  • After clicking the apply button you can see a table of your setting in the device configuration tab.
  • Press the Flash Device button.

8. A window will appear on the bottom right side of the screen displaying “Please press BOOT button while flashing begins.”

9. Hold the BOOT button down until the next window appears on the bottom right side of the screen which says “Installation prepared. Please release the boot button now.”

  1. Release the BOOT button from your ESP32 when this pop-up on the bottom right window appears.
  1. After some time, a popup will appear saying Device Flashed Successfully! This means that your device has been set up successfully.

5. MiOS App

You can download the MIOS Android app from the Google Play Store and Apple App Store.

Google PlayApple App Store
  1. After downloading the app, proceed to install the application and open it.
MiOS Installed App
  1. Using the MIOS mobile application, create a new Ezlo Cloud account using the sign-up option. If you already have an account, you may proceed to log in.
MiOS Login
  1. After successfully logging in, you will be able to see the number of controllers connected such as a lamp, fan, or any other device in the MiOS app. Tap on any controller of your desired ID:
Controllers Connected
  1. You will be able to see the status of your controller whether it is online or offline. Access the device dashboard, and tap the device. The following view of the dashboard will appear:
  1. As seen in the MiOS mobile app above, two tiles for the DHT22 sensor are being displayed. The first tile shows the humidity being detected by the sensor and the second tile shows the temperature levels being detected by the sensor.
  2. Here, it can be seen that we have successfully converted an Arduino project without any smart capabilities into a smart project by using an ESP-based development board.

6. MiOS Web Application

  1. After configuring the controller with the EzloPi web flasher, head to ezlogic.mios.com
Login To MiOS
  1. Use the same credentials to log in that you used for configuring the controller with the web flasher.
  1. Here, as you can see in the MiOS web dashboard, we can see the Water Sensor tile. The above figure indicates that a water leak is being detected by the sensor.
  1. When no water is detected by the sensor, the MiOS web dashboard tile will show the status “No leak” as above.
  2. Here, it can be seen that we have successfully converted an Arduino project into a smart project by using an ESP-based development board.
