1. Preparing your Arduino IDE

Upload the Arduino code file to your Arduino IDE, make sure to select ESP8266 as your board, and the correct COM port is selected. 

You’ll also need to install two additional libraries to have everything ready for your ESP8266:

• RBDdimmer.h - https://github.com/RobotDynOfficial/RBDDimmer
• ESP8266WiFi.h - https://github.com/esp8266/Arduino
• PubSubClient.h - https://github.com/knolleary/pubsubclient

Once the code has been uploaded:

• open the WiFi connection utility.
• Find WiFi network “WiFi Dimmer” and connect.
• Open browser 192.168.4.1
• Configure Dimmer controller to home network access

• Connect to home network and find the dimmer IP in your network with any IP scanner utility
