# Erasing the flash
So as to erase the flash memory on ESP boards you may do a long press to TRIGGER_GPIO button or connect the pin TRIGGER_GPIO to the ground during several seconds.
On M5Stack boards you may do a long press to these buttons:
- Button B on M5StickC (GPIO 37)
- Button C on M5Stack (GPIO 37)
- Button lateral on M5stick (GPIO 35)
# Low power mode for ESP32
OpenMQTTGateway support a low power mode for ESP32, this mode can be set by MQTT:
- Normal mode (per default)
mosquitto_pub -t "home/OpenMQTTGateway/commands/MQTTtoBT/config" -m '{"low_power_mode":0}'
- Low Power mode
mosquitto_pub -t "home/OpenMQTTGateway/commands/MQTTtoBT/config" -m '{"low_power_mode":2}'
TIP
When coming back from mode 2 to mode 0 you may publish the command with a retain flag so as to enable the gateway to retrieve it when reconnecting.
WARNING
If you change the default low power mode in config_BT.h to 2 and your credential are not set or not correct, the ESP32 will not connect to the broker and the only way to change the low power mode will be a new erase/upload.
# M5Stick C or M5Stack
# Behaviour
If the connexion of the board to WIFI and MQTT is successfull you will see the logo with text like below:
The same behaviour apply to M5 Stick C
# Setting the log output
Per default the log of the M5 boards is going to the LCD display with Errors and Warnings only, if you want to change the ouput at build time you can do it in config_M5.h.
You can also change it by MQTT. For example if you want to set to LCD
mosquitto_pub -t home/OpenMQTTGateway/commands/MQTTtoM5/config -m '{"log-display":true}'
you can also revert it to the serial monitor:
mosquitto_pub -t home/OpenMQTTGateway/commands/MQTTtoM5/config -m '{"log-display":false}'
# Low power mode for M5 boards
OpenMQTTGateway support a low power mode for ESP32, this mode can be set by MQTT or a button on M5 boards:
- Normal mode (per default), screen ON
mosquitto_pub -t "home/OpenMQTTGateway/commands/MQTTtoBT/config" -m '{"low_power_mode":0}'
- Low Power mode, screen ON when processing only
mosquitto_pub -t "home/OpenMQTTGateway/commands/MQTTtoBT/config" -m '{"low_power_mode":1}'
- Low Power mode, screen OFF, LED ON when processing on M5StickC
mosquitto_pub -t "home/OpenMQTTGateway/commands/MQTTtoBT/config" -m '{"low_power_mode":2}'
The low power mode can be changed also with a push to button B when the board is processing (top button on M5stickC and middle button of M5stack).
