ESP8266 WiFi Module for MKS Robin

This ESP8266 WiFi module adds wireless connectivity to an MKS Robin mainboard, letting a 3D printer be monitored and controlled from a mobile app. It is aimed at makers who want remote access without running a cable to the machine. The board plugs directly into the mainboard header and requires no additional wiring. Version 1.0 hardware is supplied ready to configure.

Practical limits of the serial WiFi link

The module communicates with the mainboard over a serial connection, so throughput is limited by the baud rate the firmware supports. Latency will increase if the local WiFi network is congested or the signal is weak. Only a single client can maintain a stable control session at a time. No Ethernet fallback or external antenna option is provided on this version.
