Update for the Smart pH Controller

Adding remote control WebApp

Posted by TheBrightKnight on July 27, 2024 · 1 min read

After some time, I finally got around to upgrading my pH controller!
Instead of relying on a small screen and clunky buttons, I’ve implemented an API and a web app directly inside the microcontroller.

If you’re curious about how API servers and clients work, check out this explenation.

What’s New?

Now, you can calibrate, control, and monitor your pH levels from any device connected to your home network—no extra apps required! Just open your browser and access the interface effortlessly.

How Does It Connect?

The first time you power it on, a new WiFi network will appear on your devices.
Simply connect to it, configure your home WiFi details, save the settings, and you’re all set! After that, just open your favorite browser and visit: phTator.local

Or, if needed, you can access it directly via the device’s IP address, which will be displayed on its screen.

Get It Now! The latest version is available on my GitHub Repo — go check it out!

Until next time -
