| Remote control - Telegram bot |

Hi all,
a while ago I built myself a remote control using SMS messages. It kinda worked, but it was not practical since I live in another country and a cost of a single SMS home was well over 1€, not to mention the need for a dedicated SIM card on the receiving end. So I'm toying with the idea of making something that works over a web based service. The first one that comes to mind is Telegram with it's bots (but can be any other service). At this point in time I'm only fishing for the ideas about how this system should look like. My idea is to use ESP32 to handle the networking and PIC to do all the rest. There are many tutorials of how to interface ESP32 to a Telegram bot using Arduino, so an option is to grab an existing sketch and tweak it so that ESP mimics key presses or passes the control messages to PIC via serial. I'm sure many of you already made something similar, so I'd be grateful for any pointers and ideas.
Regards,
Samo |

You are looking at a very complex way of doing things. Problem is that
Telegram bots are signalled using MTProto. This would be beyond most
PIC's to handle.
Much simpler to just use SNMP over the network. |

I must be stuck at Punxsutawney.

You are right, it is not related, not even remotely (pun definitely intended) and it is rude to hijack a topic like this.
I do not know what you mean by not decoded correctly. You never ever tell what doesn't work, only that it doesn't. I told you that already. You also never post the working solutions.
Go through the topic from February again, look at the codes. What you posted here is not the same as what I posted. Once again your TE related definitions are wrong and I did point that out to you then. There is also a potential problem with the way you store sampled bits. Maybe intentional, maybe not.
Please don't use this topic again for unrelated things. |
