Follow the steps to control the Node MCU Over Localhost
Step1: Upload the .ino code to the Node MCU ESP8266.
Step2: Open Serial Monitor within 5 Second after uploading code and enter “r” and sent it.
After sending “r” to the Node MCU ESP8266 it writes default value to the EEPROM.
The defaults values:
SSID: ESPDebug
Password: espdebugpassword
Login Username: admin
Login password: admin
** When writing is complete to the EEPROM of the Node MCU Esp8266 it automatically restarted. (If it does not restart automatically then try to restart manually).
** After restarting it creates an access point for the client.
Step4: The client can access the NODE MCU ESP8266 with the valid SSID and Password.
SSID: ESPDebug
Password: espdebugpassword
Step5: After connecting to the Node MCU ESP8266, the client can go to the browser and type default gateway address of the Node-MCU on the address bar, after pressing "Enter" the login page of the Node MCU ESP8266 appear on the screen.
• In this case default IP address is: 192.168.4.1
Step6: After entering the default Username and password the client can access the internal section of the Node MCU ESP8266.
Login Username: admin
Login password: admin
Step7: You have done!!
