JWBR2S (WBR1)?
Wondering if it's possible to get this working for a JWBR2S with WBR1 module on it.
Thanks.
As per what Tuya notes:
JWBR2S
JWBR2S is a Wi-Fi module that is suitable for serial communication. It consists of a WiFi +Bluetooth WBR1 module, and a level conversion circuit.
WBR1
WBR1 is a low-power embedded Wi-Fi and Bluetooth module that Tuya has developed. Embedded with the Wi-Fi network protocol stack and rich library functions, it consists of a highly integrated RF chip (W701).
Meaning that the JWBR2S uses the WBR1 as an internal module but does not expose any of the general-purpose IOb (GPIO) pins that may be available. If you are looking to use a device that uses this, look elsewhere for the controller that controls the actual device. The JWBR2S module does the same as the old ESP8266 did for Arduino projects - just a wifi dongle.
This probably means that this device is supportable by the OpenBK project but through quite a lot of modifications (simplifications essentially) as it'd have to strip down and communicate over UART solely. It's to be seen/investigated whether custom firmware on these modules would be useful at all, given they may work without modification as long as UART communication protocols can be figured out.
