On startup the application associates with the compiled in wlan access point and registers on the SIP server.
Once a signal is detected on the selected GPIO, a call is initiated to a target number. On the phone, the custom string is displayed. After the configured timeout is elapsed, the call is canceled. If the signal is detected again, before the timer is elapsed, the timer is started again.
Tested with:
- AVM Fritzbox 7390
- AVM Fritzbox 7490
- AVM Fritzbox 7590
The source code is mixed C and C++. A transition to boost:sml is in progress.
This application is to be used with Espressif IoT Development Framework (ESP-IDF). It is tested with revision 020ade652d9b6b0b87b0bebe176a150cc4407749
Please check ESP-IDF docs for getting started instructions.
An ESP32 board can be used. Only one external GPIO (input is sufficient) must be available, to detect the call trigger. To test this, two PC817 opto coupler are used to detect the AC signal (about 12V from the bell transformer). The input diode of the opto couplers are connected in parallel and opposing directions. In series, a 2k Resistor is used. This may have to be tweaked according to the input voltage. The output transistors of the opto couplers are connected in parallel in the same polarity to pull the signal to ground, if a current flows through one of the input diodes. A pull up resistor (either internal in the ESP32 or external) must be used to pull the signal to 3V3 if no input current is detected and the output transistors are switched off.
Instead of two PC817 opto couplers, one PC814 can be used to detect the AC signal. Because of the different CTR, the resistor values must be tweaked. If it is sufficient to only detect one half-wave of the AC signal (this is normally the case) one PC817 opto coupler and a simple diode (e.g. 1N4148) is sufficient. The diode ensures that the voltage of the input diode of the opto coupler is not above the threshold. The 1N4148 must be connected anti-parallel to the input diode of the PC817.
If the bell transformer delivers enough power, the ESP32 can be powered from it. A bridge rectifier, a big capacitor and a cheap switching regulator board can be used for that.
