Can't find channel
Hi,
first of all this looks really awesome, it would finally allow me to integrate the SPA into our home automation using OpenHab.
But I can't get the channel search to work. It keeps on blinking steady and never blinks fast. I tried close to the SPA pump (like 5cm away), 1 meter further away, no joy.
If I understood the code well, the fast blinking should happen after you set the channel and the led goes back off, right? (DO_SET = LOW at line 134 in SearchChannel.ino)
Is there anything else i can try?
Model of the SPA = 28442 (bought in belgium)
Kind regards, Eric
Hi, other user got a same problem. https://github.com/Yogui79/IntexPureSpa/discussions/7
Another question : Using a ESP32 V4 dev model ?
"If I understood the code well, the fast blinking should happen after you set the channel and the led goes back off, right? (DO_SET = LOW at line 134 in SearchChannel.ino)" No, Light turn ON in setting channel and turn OFF because not rceived data.
Try use correct board and review conections!
Don't have a v4 board available, so I tried with a Arduino, still same result, the fast blinking never happens. I attached my scope on the solderings and connections are good. I can decode the HEX on the serial line.
Any other ideas?
hello @EricVdB
please post the serial connection logger
I have the same issue, I have a hot tub thats not one of the confirmed models thought. All other hardware is the same as whats listed. I have model 28441E the 6 person. I have run through the channel search about 10 times, at varying distance from the pump and from the controller. Still no fast blinks. Not sure what I'm missing, I really hope I don't have a newer model that isn't compatible with this...

Shoot.... so I guess my version is the 2021 model. Any hope of getting that one to work with this? Is there anything I can do to help? I do that two of them because of an RMA.
@bendig It is easy to check the Spa version. See the screenshot. Do you have 2021. Is WiFi default than can you use the INTEX APP.
https://ibb.co/LZPTPRZ (Version 2020)
https://ibb.co/b6kX9Sk (Version 2021 - with WIFI symbol in the left corner)
We haven't tried to works with the 2021, I think it's possible.
Please see how @djgel already posted that the ESP is the v4 developer version.
I also have a model from 2021. Before that I had the old one without WiFi. I couldn't find the channel either. However, I noticed that the small blue LED behind the display flashed faster in the old pool. I pressed the lock button to search for a channel. Then you can see the blue LED flashing behind the display. Then the LC12 also flashed at 0x2b.
