Which AP should I choose (using Web installer at https://install.openepaperlink.de/) for downloading the firmware to the NanoC6 AP board?
Thanks,
Kind regards
@jonasniesner commented on GitHub (Dec 12, 2023):
The C6 can only be used in conjunction with another Esp32, Esp32-s2 or Esp32s3. This esp should be wired up in a way that allows it to update the c6. After you install the firmware to the main esp, it will update the C6 by downloading the newest firmware directly. Because of this, the install page does not offer C6 firmware. If you can think about a usecase for it to offer the firmware anyways, just reply here and I may add it.
@Ivanverdonck commented on GitHub (Dec 15, 2023):
Hi Jonas, that the C6 will be flashed by the other esp was clear for me. But not which firmware u need to flag on the esp32-s2. I am going to build this hardware “NanoC6 by ATC1441” link it uses an esp32-s2. The “Access point pinouts” section link in the wiki mentions 2 firmwares “mini” and “nano” for the esp32-s2 with different pinouts.
Maybe I need to ask this directly to @atc1441: Which firmware did u flash on the esp32-s2 (WEMOS S2-Min)?
kind regards, Ivan.
@atc1441 commented on GitHub (Dec 15, 2023):
@Ivanverdonck please flash the NanoAP Firmware on the S2-Mini

Hi @atc1441 / @Ivanverdonck I have build the NanoC6 and flashed the NanoAP firmware on the S2-mini. I do get the webpage, but I think the C6 has not been flashed. I get "failed" on the homepage after initialisation. When I press the "Update ESP32-C6" button I only get the "Flashing ESP32-C6..." message, but nothing happens. How can I get the C6 flashed?
Running 2.07b
BTW: I used your gerbers to make the pcb.
@atc1441 commented on GitHub (Jan 18, 2024):
Hey, you will need to flash this platformIO config yourself
https://github.com/jjwbruijn/OpenEPaperLink/blob/master/ESP32_AP-Flasher/platformio.ini#L518
The old NanoC6 is not included in the WebFlasher anymore
@kvandt commented on GitHub (Jan 18, 2024):
Hi @atc1441 thnx for quick reply. I have flashed the Nano_C6 version now through platformIO. AP boots, but still gives "failed". When going to update page it mentions the version is newer than the latest release date (which is true, because I just created it)
Your version is newer than the latest release date.Are you the developer? :-)In the terminal screen:
env: OpenEPaperLink_Nano_C6build date: 2024-01-18 20:24esp32 version: customfilesystem version: 2.07bpsram size: 2093071flash size: 4194304I tried pushing the flash C6 button, but again without succes. What am I doing wrong? Do I need to change settings in the platformio ini? I used the gerbers from here
@atc1441 commented on GitHub (Jan 18, 2024):
It might be possible that the internal flashing does not work for the S2-Mino -> C6.
So please try this one: https://github.com/jjwbruijn/OpenEPaperLink/tree/master/ARM_Tag_FW/ESP32_S3_to_C6_Flasher_Test
Otherwise you need to flash the C6 externally with an USB to UART converter
The S2-Mini C6 Combo is kinda Legacy as you maybe already noticed
@kvandt commented on GitHub (Jan 18, 2024):
Do I need to update filesystem as well?
@atc1441 commented on GitHub (Jan 18, 2024):
That is not needed no
@kvandt commented on GitHub (Jan 18, 2024):
I will try.Thanks for your help. What would be the recommended AP now if I do not get the Nano C6 working?
@atc1441 commented on GitHub (Jan 18, 2024):
The next better one would be the S3 C6 NanoAP https://github.com/jjwbruijn/OpenEPaperLink/tree/master/Hardware/S3_C6_NanoAP%20by%20ATC1441
@kvandt commented on GitHub (Jan 19, 2024):
@atc1441 It worked after flashing the ESP32_S3_to_C6_Flasher_Test repo followed by flashing the original repo again. Will it now be possible to use the upcoming updates normally, or do I have to keep using the platformio route?
@atc1441 commented on GitHub (Jan 19, 2024):
Very nice to hear,
You need to go the manual route as no uodates will be compiled for the old NanoC6 anymore, sorry avout that.
I will add a note in the repo of NanoC6
