| # vmix-tally-nodemcu | ||
| Tally for vMix using wifi. Creates an AP to configure the local wifi, vMix host and tally number. | ||
| # vMix Tally NodeMCU | ||
| Tally for vMix using NodeMCU and 2 NeoPixel Mini PCB. | ||

| ## How It Works | ||
| - When your ESP starts up, it sets it up in Station mode and tries to connect to a previously saved Access Point | ||
| - if this is unsuccessful (or no previous network saved) it moves the ESP into Access Point mode and spins up a DNS and WebServer (default ip 192.168.4.1) | ||
| - using any wifi enabled device with a browser (computer, phone, tablet) connect to the newly created Access Point (ESP*) | ||
| - because of the Captive Portal and the DNS server you will either get a 'Join to network' type of popup or get any domain you try to access redirected to the configuration portal | ||
| - choose the access points that connects your vMix, enter password, click save | ||
| - start Configuration App (Currently MacOS only) and scan for Tally Nodes | ||
| - configure your nodes with the vMix IP and tally number. | ||
|
|
||
| ## Needed Hardware | ||
| - NodeMCU v3 | ||
| - 2 NeoPixels Mini PCB | ||
| - Usb cable | ||
| - USB powersupply or Powerbank | ||
| - WiFi connection to your vMix computer | ||
|
|
||
| ## Flashing NodeMCU (V3) | ||
| - Download latest release | ||
| - Unpack zip | ||
| - Open vmix-tally.ino with arduino IDE | ||
| - Install the extra libraries (WiFiManager by tzapu 2.0.3-alpha, Adafruit NeoPixel by Adafruit 1.5.0) | ||
| - Flash NodeMCU | ||
|
|
||
| ## NodeMCU pin layout | ||
| - Connect 1 NeoPixel input to 1 NeoPixel output (+,signal,-) | ||
| - Connect + of first NeoPixel to pin VU | ||
| - Connect - of first NeoPixel to ground | ||
| - Connect signal of first NeoPixel to D2 | ||
| - Power using USB | ||
|
|
||
| ## Current plans | ||
| - Add 3d printer case design | ||
| - Stabilize, optimise and improve software | ||
| - Add windows & linux App | ||
| - Improve documentation | ||
| - Configure using webinterface | ||
| - Ask vMix for ZeroConf broadcast to allow auto connect | ||
| - Create demonstration video | ||
